  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 20 ส.ค. 2024
  • We challenged chefs of three different skill levels - amateur Stephen, home cook Rinku, and professional chef Danielle Alex - to prepare us their favorite biryani recipe. Once each level of chef had presented their creation, we asked expert food scientist Rose to explain the choices each made along the way - both good and bad. Which biryani would you choose to eat first?

    For all the people saying the level 3 chef didn't make a Biryani... you are correct. She did tell us she's making Beer-ani.

    when you make biryani, you dont look at "great sources of fiber". You make it with basmati rice

      @ravisharma7940 3 ปีที่แล้ว +22

      No, basmati is not recommended because basmati is very flavourful and has its own smell. We use rice grain which are dull in flavour so every ingredient blend perfectly. As same as we do while cooking catfish.

He told the entire class that there are some ingredients which should not have its own taste which we use in biriyani. i belive people are using basmati for its strong aroma and wonderful taste but we should be well aware that there a a lot of varities of biriyani like hydrabadi, lucknowwi and awdhi. it totally depends on how you wish to make it. i guess

      There are 97 million Bengalis in India, and four states that were a part of earstwhile Bengal. You clearly have no idea how diverse India actually is. Bengali Biryani also falls into the "Indian Kind" (so does the Pakistani). There are MANY types of Indian Biryanis (Lucknowi/Awadhi, Hyderabadi, Thalassery, Kolkata, Bengali(the seafood kind) just to name a few).

    I have watched many of the shows you guys have out, seeing the Biryani one I was honestly surprised to say the least. - I am an American (Cherokee) granted I play cricket on a Indian cricket team. I personally enjoy making Biryani which I first learned of by way of my teammates.. I will not be as harsh as some of the comments. But I will say this.. You have done what no country or leader has ever done.. You have united the whole of the sub continent against you over this.. This is not a knock at Danielle but at you the epicsurious - Biryani uses rice. If you are asked to make an airplane your not going to show up and make a truck. What you guys failed to understand is that SO many cultures in this part of the world live on this dish. And they know NO ONE who makes it with that grain.. Using it makes something else not Biryani . SMH - I share the feeling of insult as this was a bad idea. You have a pro chef who is Indian - you could have asked her to review this before you uploaded it..

Many Indians don't even think about using orange juice, pomegranates, plums and rose water in a Biryani or a Kebab. What she cooks is not traditional Indian recipe or maybe it's Bengali style. But definitely it what's cooked accross India.
