THINK LIKE A CHEF: PASTRY BATTLE | Sorted Food

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 18 ส.ค. 2020
- When Barry and Jamie go head-to-head in a cooking battle, they often copy each other to get by… but what happens when we split them up so they can’t see each other cooking? Today is the day that we find out!!
In this episode, our resident Chef, Ben, guides our Normals into making one of the most difficult pastry dishes to master: the Mille Feuille. With a no-nonsense approach, lots of cheffy jargon and a heavily technical process to follow, will our Normals be able to ‘think like a chef’? Or will they crack under pressure?

If Jamie had a Netflix Series of him and his cooking, it would be called ‘Instant Regrets’.
😂
But the results would still be 'tasty defeats'.
The show could called Instant regetes and tasty defets with Jamie and Barry
Knowhere Chef Great Idea!
Great haven't started the vid yet. Now i know I'm gonna get that big eyes looking at the camera moment😂
Jamie: too many numbers will mess Barry up
Barry: mixes up his shapes
Plot twist!
Barry definitely had one of those fit the objects in the right shaped hole toys as a kid that are laughably ineffective because every single shape fits in the square hole 😂
The looks on Ben's face as they poored straight up heavy cream into the crème pat are just priceless
His silent scream as good too.
I think this challenge just made Ebbers disappointed with the guys rather than frustrated 😂😂 it took Jamie all of 10 seconds to make a mistake adding pepper to his flour because he didn’t think, Barry needed every instruction repeated at least twice and he panicked losing control and instead of taking a breath to compose himself, he continued to flap and panic leaving himself susceptible to making more errors 😂
Jamie's "Oh, how the tables have turned in the copying debate." was so perfectly passive aggressive. I laughed.
I need James to do the next Think Like A Chef, and be his best super judgey , super snarky, hard-to-please self
But they all want his approval!
And Mike please. So we can have double snark.
icesilverwind Barry and Mike! It’ll be like the sassy eldest and the eager-to-please youngest
True but James is also a lot more helpful, hes hard on them but gives a lot of advice and help. He just gets even more dissapointed at the end if it turns out bad
@@shannonbrazil6135 They do, don't they!
Ben: "Stay organised, tidy and clean."
Barry: *Has a break-down.*
Thats why he is married... 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Or just regular ADHD. Its thought out here lol
Imagine Ben making the instructions for IKEA furniture. "Make table. Done"
Haha!!!
Who reads the institutions?
@@Sunny-ot1vo Few people. A lot of people read the *instructions* though.
I still feel like if Ben wasn't holding Barry's hand so much and was more strict with the "you'll be told what to do once and you have to listen like a chef", Barry would've created something very different from a millefeuille
Agreed! Let's do it all over again with Ben's pre-recorded voice giving the instructions once only. Then the favouritism that he always shows to Barry is gone.
And also give Jamie some of the common baking terms/presentation terms that he's wholly unfamiliar with.
He didn't know what feathering an icing actually meant, making it kind of unfair for him in the entire presentation category.
The facial expressions of just pure shock and aw, are absolutely the best thing I have seen all month!
So glad you like em!
All three of them looked absolutely terrified at times
His shocked face was so amazing :) His chef heart broke a couple of times in this episode :)
8:50 has me rolling like no tomorrow 😂
It’s glorious to see Ben finally being able to release years of repressed chef feelings and bring the normals back in line with kitchen French.
Soppy comment alert. I want to thank the boys in sorted food for giving me a passion for food. It was only after watching a few videos that I realised that I wanted to work with food. I’m now 2 years into a chef apprenticeship and I’m loving it, thank you to all the dudes at sorted food
Aw congratulations
Congrats! Maybe after all this is over we can travel and have your food lol!
Good point update with where you are working at some point!
Congratsss! They are truly inspiring people its crazy
That is awesome!
In a series called "Think Like a Chef" I think that Jamie should have won: despite the faux paz with the pepper and with the presentation, he did think like a chef (preheating oven from the start, listening to directions the first time, etc)
But a Chef must think Taste first, and that was where he failed
This exercise also has proven that Barry definitely needs Jamie more than Jamie needs Barry.
@@jimmartin9163 but that wasn't due to him joy tasting as he went. That was him assuming it was part of his recipe, which wouldn't be the case if he was making his own recipe or following the instructions of one.
Faux pas. Not faux paz. False step, not false peace.
The fact that ebbers said ALL the ingredients have been pre weighed and done, and have pepper with the salt, was pretty unfair. What ebbers said was a lie. It’s not pre measured, or pre set up with ingredients that are actually used. They have been SO many sorted videos that had ingredients that were not expected. The only thing I see Jamie have did wrong was trusting ebbers to not lie with the comment of seasoning which ALWAYS includes S&P.
i think you need a score for all the parts like "think like a chef" "taste" and "visuals"
it cant be that jamie wins 2/3 categories but still lost the battle
my french heritage cried when Ebbers said ‘Mille Fway’
Sorry about that! How do you pronounce it?
Its just me fway, rather that mill isnt it?
I pronounce it "mii foy"
@@SortedFood meel-foy
@@SortedFood Don't add a W sound when saying "feuille".
ben's face when they start making the filling is priceless, like he wanted to dump these bowls on their heads and yell START AGAIN
I want to see them bring Gordon Ramsay on as a guest chef to host one of these and watch him have an aneurysm when he has to stay PG for the family format XD
@@animefallenangel Give this man a cookie! Ramsay would be hilarious, but he may be a little brutal. Just imagine him looking down on an already frightened Barry.
@@MrZWolfy I don't think he would be brutal, because these aren't people trying to be chiefs. He is so brutal on so many shows because he is dealing with people CLAIMING to be chiefs that are making mistakes comparable to a surgeon refusing to wash their hands or glove up before slicing someone open and then arguing about how their way is better.
I think with the normals Gordon would be great because they aren't even trying to claim to be chiefs, only amateurs with a love for food. It would be great though, cause he would be super snarky still, but in that polite Brit way of being snarky.
I love how, as this channel has been around for so long, the normals have developed so much that these kinds of competitions have become possible.
Imagine doing something like this couple years back and it could've been nothing but a disaster.
They still kinda are.
“Use Equipment efficiently” I’m sure Barry is already preheating the stove
Ben's face turned sooo red in anger during chantilly cream.
not anger.... just flustered.
I love it when you can slowly see Ebbers get increasingly more angry with the normals which causes his face to become more red and frustrated over time 😂😂 I think the biggest frustration he has is because he knows the normals have the knowledge but either cannot or choose not to use the knowledge they have so it’s like he has to teach the same lessons repeatedly rather than teaching it once and being able to provide instructions that they understand and execute
They gave Barry only one hob. I bet he'll still leave it on.
It's an induction, it won't let him do that to it
@@VietyV He'll find a way.
@@erinhowett3630 he always finds a way 😂
"Oh, like a dream. A scary, scary dream."
That's called a nightmare, Jamie.
Man, I didn't realise how much of a difference not being able to see each other would make. Most of the mistakes were made by only one of the two, and wouoldn't have if they saw the other one do it their way. This was great!
Jamie: "You said 'everything you need is in front of you'!" Yes, but he didn't say "you need everything in front of you", did he? 🤔
Haha! You're right.
I don't know, they've been separated to keep them from helping each other figure out what they're supposed to do. That might be kind of a big ask.
That's a good suggestion for the next one! Add some more random ingredients that are not related to the dish, see if they pick up on it
@@gerritboshoff5173 Wasn't there a red pepper that served a similar purpose when Ben tried to cook a dish under guidance in French?
@@CircleTheSkies Can't remember. I'll have to go back and watch it again!
Damn, Ben sounded REALLY cheffy this episode! Like he was actually in a professional kitchen! I really liked it hahaha, needs to be bossy more often!
We need a “keep up with the chef” series with all the normals involved
Reading the comments about Ben mispronouncing the name of the dish: "I see that you're new here" 😂😂
As a pastry chef, I had multiple strokes during this video
Be strong. :D
As an amateur that occasionally likes to bake, i did so too.
Although i gotta say, Swiss Mille-feuilles do look a bit different than apparently Britain ones. (Also they're either called "Vanilla-cuts" (Vanilleschnitte) or in a more regional slang "Zurich-snouts" (Zürischnuure))
@@Aurirang You and me both, am also a patry chef, but still quite a new one :)
You must really like pastry.
As a cake baker, but not a pastry chef, I too had some strokes 🤯😂😂
Did you also smell toast? :))
Damn! Mike and Ben are secretly evil adding ingredients even though they might not need it and what not. I like it. I think we need more secretly evil Ben and Mike. Barry, i feel has the attention span of a 4th grader and both are truly testing Bens patience! 😂 poor Ben.
v2thekey921 I get the feeling it’s a learning difficulty of some kind, like ADHD or something, so I don’t think he actually *can* retain the info. They’re pretty unfair to him.
That's what happens when a Slytherin and ravenclaw team up *evil grin*😉
I'm ADD and I'd bet anything Baz is. It makes certain things tough to focus on, learn & retain - but us ADD types can also bring amazing creativity, lateral thinking & imagination. That's also 100% Barry and why we all love him :)
Shelsight That’s totally the vibe I get, and I just wish they wouldn’t make fun of it. He’s so inventive.
@@vm6366 Mike a slytherin? I would totally think hes more a hufflepuff tho ahhaha hes just a golden retriever in a human form
I love how between them, it was nearly perfect. Jamie's had the right shape and Barry nailed the feathering
Rough Puff...thats Jamie's wrestling alter ego. Right?
"I've got a bloody brain like a sieve" my ADHD ass needs to embroider that on a pillow.
My parents always used that phrase about me growing up, in a frustrated but affectionate way. "You've got a brain like a sieve..." Zero surprise and much relief when I was finally diagnosed with Inattentive ADD in my 40s...
My dyslexic ass needs this too 🙈 Barry's abit too relatable for me in this one 🙈
@@Shelsight good for you that you went and got tested!! My heart breaks for sweet Barry every time they make fun of him. On the graphic where they show everyone's characteristics in bars, Barry has intelligence in red (like minus), and it's so not true! His brain just works differently. But even if he got diagnosed, I wouldn't want him to stop flapping, because that's just the cutest.
Sad thing is, you’ll forget to make it (or you’ll start it and not finish it).
They're making fun of him for not being able to absorb what he is hearing and I'm sitting here like (._.) because same...
HavingToRereadThings10TimesBecauseMyBrainFroze gang👋
Ben: has been to france, speaks french. Also Ben: Mille-Fweh
French gets worse when you see the writing instead of knowing the pronunciation lol.
shnarked just because you know the language and have been to the country doesn’t mean you always have the right pronunciation. I know French people that have lived 10+ years in the UK and still don’t get it right, same goes the other way round. I think it is the thought of learning a language and wanting to improve the skills that is most important. If everyone expected a perfect pronunciation of every word no one would want to learn a new language. Just a thought :)
Title of the episode: "think like a chef"
Ben: "Jamie, you thought the most like a chef, it looks most like it, you followed directions, so obviously Barry wins"
I feel Jamie should have won because he required less handholding. Yes, the end result matters, but if you are going to do it about 'thinking like a chef', and the one who needs constant handholding and repetitions is right there facing the chef to see his expressions and body language, that is a huge advantage for them. I am not surprised at all Barry won, especially given that Jamie instantly fell for the pepper trap. If anything, Jamie was the weaker normal here, since baking and such is far more up Barry's wheelhouse than his, and yet that's not where the chef helped out the most. In the future position the chef such that both battlers get equal exposure to him throughout.
Word as written on paper: "Mille-feuille", a thousand sheets
Word as said by Ben: "Mille-fouet", a thousand whisks
As a Canadian French Immersion graduate, Ben's prononciation mangling drives me nuts.
@@jessica-mariegervais9800 As a French, Ben's pronunciation scorches me xD
As a bilingual Quebecoise(French Canadian) I praise any effort to speak in an other language, even when it's not on point. It's ok to correct someone's prononciation to help them get better but mocking is only hurtfull. Be nice to those who are trying ❤️
@@juliehamel8330 Dude's a chef, openly talking to the Internet. Though my original intent is not malicious, I do believe deep within that he should look up those things! But thanks for coming and doing you BA of the day.
Samuel versatile Judging by the number of times Barry forgot to whisk stuff, the latter sounds right 😂
Please do a 'vintage sorted' theme video with Tyrone, red shorts and mysterious foods fed to unsuspecting victims 😉
Does anyone else just live for Ben's omfg expressions?
Oh please, we all do! :D
Not sure how possible it'd be but my God, an Eric Lanlard would be incredible for this series
YES, I need him back on the show
"...no."
Kiro I was hoping someone would do that!!!
Ben's face journey through this is just... the best thing.
PETITION TO SEE ‘JUDGEMENTAL JAMES’ AS A CHILDREN’S BOOK. TEAM SORTED, PLEASE MAKE IT HAPPEN.
I would buy that. My 6 yo niece loves to help me cook. I think she would appreciate it because she is just as sassy as our Ginger chef. 😉
@@iluvdissheet That’s so sweet. I’ve taken a screenshot and tweeted it to the Channel’s Handle.
@@PokhrajRoy. aww...thanks! 🤗
all i can say is; "oh dear oh dear..."
Barry's tiny "sure" as he gave up cleaning the counter was golden
I feel like Jamie's "I instantly regret what I have done." is some prime meme material.
Ben's face in 10:15-16 is so priceless I wouldn't be surprised if it became a meme 😂😂😂
Sorted Memes nailed it on Twitter...
@@nikwalters1029 hahaha yess
Barry starts whisking his cream. The look of despair on Jamie made me lol
I would love to see Gordon Ramsey on the show. "Jamie, you donkey! Why have you added bloody pepper to it?!!"
Seconded!
Gordon Ramsay getting frustrated with these guys..? YES PLEASE! 😂
The whole episode is bloody brilliant, but Ebbers' face going red at 9:02 is just priceless
“It’s all about the confidence, right?” - Jamie Paul Romanio Spafford, 2020.
Along with colour-blindness, we see Logic-Blindness as well.
"They copy each other" omg I've not realized this until now. I love the two though!
This might be my favourite episode. I sincerely hope they did more of these with Ben directing them because it's gold!
I want to see a return of Eric Lanlard, we all know how instructing Jamie and Mike, who worked together, went. So i can only imagine if they had to do it by themselves.
Hold on a minute, the series is called "Think like a chef" and Jamie was thinking more as a chef but Barry won?
How is that even possible? xD
Glad to see I was not the only one thinking this!
Jamie clearly won on following instructions and recreating the look, but Barry won because at the end if it looks good but tastes bad nobody will eat it. I see the reason for the win, but I think Jamie has less road to go to arrive at the proper finished product.
oh how the tables have turned
If Barry had just usewd that second tray he would've aced it.
We know right! Rookie error.
@@SortedFood 'We were on the verge of greatness, we were this close.'-Orson Krennic
@@SortedFood after he relised how much they puffed up all he had to do is cut the in half length wise and would of been fine and have the texture of airy puff pastry but not to thick
I think that's why he won in the end tbh. My immediate reaction was no cos Jamie's pastry looked better but Barry did all the steps slightly better, except for the tray. So overall I think he does have the win.
This is the first time I've proper laughed at one of these in a long time - Ben's facial expressions are precious!
'Hear it, say: ''Oui Chef", clock it, move on.' Oh those good ol' days when i was a a little scruffy kid, trying to become a chef. Done that for 15 years, I am now a butcher (much better).
When you see chef-y words in the title you know this is gonna be good. Either the chefs are chef-ing and not babysitting, or the normals are going to be scrambling.
Kudos to whoever was in charge of the Ben cam 😂😂😂
Why aren’t they shouting “YES CHEF” after every instruction? That’s how a real chef would react!
Jonathan Croley because they still had to compute what a mill fwey was.
Olivier pilon rousseau Pas mal ! 😂 Fway lol ça m'a bien fait rire !
Because every 2 seconds Barry has to ask Ben to repeat the instructions
Because they are normals. XD
I always thought that judges on food shows exaggerate with their reactions when it comes to the participants mistakes...
But when Jamie mixed the chocolate with the icing sugar AND the water I actually audibly gasped and placed a hand on my chest all dramatically.
Still good job to you guys!
‘Instant Regrets’ sounds like what happens at a party with alcohol involved.
😂
Why does Ben saying "rough puff" make me laugh so much? 😂
The faces Ben pulls everytime they get it wrong are just the best thing about this video! :P
Barry's feathering looked great! I still can't believe that Jamie put salt and pepper into the rough puff.. Definitely more of these "think like a chef" videos please!
Honestly, Jamie did great! Besides his pastry being slightly undercooked and not doing the glaze right, he nailed it!
7:27 A LEGIT MOOD SINCE THE 7th of MARCH, 2020.
The many times Ben's head nearly exploded during this were SO worth it! LOL!
Awww. I love the way you say Mille Feuilles! It's so adorable!
I challenge James and Ben to follow a Liziqi recipe!
BTW: Thanks for the great content!
PLEASE!!
This is such a good format😆😆 love you guys!
We're glad you like it!
Being a pastry chef myself it was a pleasure and a laugh to watch this, so thanks Sorted Food. Interms of featuring chefs I would have to say a definite yes to a visit from Paul Hollywood a fantastic pastry chef who would be a laugh to have on the show.
Great work lads as always 👏
Imagine they could get Marco Pierre White to do one of these with the Boys. That'd be amazing to watch
This made me gasp “No” out loud on a tube train
Barry battling dyscalculia while being tossed numbers is amazing and inspiring. I would have collapsed in sobs.
🤣 I love the way Barry and Jamie bounce off eachother.
Barry made a Mille Feuille BAP and I'm here for it! 😁
One of the best ever- I loved Ben's reactions when the boys f'd up!
Challenge is called "think like a chef" and Jamie doesn't win even though he was the one who thought most like a chef... I disagree with Ben's decision
I agree. Barry's didn't look right at all.
The challenge was "mille feuille battle." Thinking like a chef was just the theme. At the end the of day, he put an undercooked puff pastry (with pepper in it) against a properly cooked and properly seasoned puff pastry and was completely missing one component (the icing).
@@grythm You cannot call Barry 's pastries properly cooked when they are that puffed XD
I agree. It seems like Barry asked for thr repeat of instructions and still didnt get the layers correct, didn't keep his area cleaned up and other than the feathering didn't make it look that much like Bens. Jamie added a bit of pepper and made a mess of the feathering but otherwise followed directions, cleaned up around himself and his pastery was much closer to the sample. But that seems to be a trend with them. Ben seems to prefer Barry's effort more than he does Jamie's getting things much closer to correct.
Boys not gonna lie here. I completely forgot that I started an online game and my team lost horribly because of that. 10/10 would recommend this episode.
The banter in this video was absolutely RELENTLESS! 🤣🤣
This was hilarious. I miss Mike. Can imagine he's behind the scenes in every video, though, so still sabotaging battles (the extra ingredients!) at a safe distance. Hehe.
I miss mike as well! I get the vibe that he prefers being off camera sometimes though so maybe he’s happier behind the scenes
@@lauraholliday9343 Yeah, completely respect his choice to do that. Also, maybe, being the main editor, it makes his job far easier if he's behind the camera for the shots.
“Rough Puff” is what I am calling Jamie from this point forward.
As a french person that mille feuille gave me anxiety
Oh, Ben you are such a darling! Your expressions at their mistakes made my day!!!😂
Bring in GORDON RAMSEY!!!!! That would be crazy wild.
Starting good. Minute and a half in and there is not a single hob on.
Ben's face was so red when it came to the Chantilly cream that I almost thought the editing team had overlaid a tomato on his face
I like that they're separated, makes this concept so much better. Big thumbs up
This is simply the funniest episode I have ever watched from the boys. I feel ‘Think like a Chef’ series is going to go a long way. Need more of this in my life.
In a "Think like a chef" challenge, Jamie thought like a chef better but I'm still picking Barry... It wasn't a make the best pasty challenge.
as has been said on other comments thinking like a chef isn't just about a clean space and following instructions, it is more importantly about taste-appearance is important but flavour comes first, and Spaff was incredibly close but he under-cooked his dish and added an incorrect seasoning creating the wrong flavour profile. Effectively Spaff was more consistently chefy where Baz was chefy where it counted more this time.
@@boa_firebrand Plus he completely messed up the chocolate, mixed the sugar in and added water. Baz's main mistake was not putting the tray on top at the end, as Ben said that the mistake in making the creme pate was just adding another step at the end so it was still the same end product but took longer to get there.
If Ben had not held Barry's had, he wouldn't have put the eggs in. If the chef/judge fixes your mistakes before they can cost you're bound to win.
LOVE THIS FORMAT!!
LOVE MY SORTED FAMILY!!
Thank you so much for this video. I'm a frontline healthcare worker and have been suffering with severe insomnia and anxiety the last few months. This video made me laugh non stop for the first time in months. Thank you so so much
I'm so sorry to say this but watching Ebbers get an aneurysm is the best thing I've seen this week.
Saw a notification on my phone while watching Tyler Oakley's videos! Paused that and click this so fast hahah. Yay another upload from Sortedfood video! it's Wednesday already? I lose track of days. XD I'm loving this format of cooking battle! You lads looking crisp as usual :))
I can totally relate to Barry. I’m a visual learner and struggle so much with verbal commands/instructions + terrible with maths 🙄edit: I might be an asian version of Barry
I love Ben’s face when they just poured cream into the creme pat. I was screaming on the inside when I saw that!
Also icing sugar and water into melted chocolate. I’m crying 😭😭.
Please, I’m begging you, create more of these! I haven’t laughed this hard in ages! ❤️
Asking Jamie to think like a chef is like asking a fish to think like a cactus.
thought this was going to be something like Overcooked by the setup, which btw....*hint hint*
GOOD IDEA
OMG I love this new series. More please!
I actually like it that Jamie added pepper to his pastry. It might really add depth.
I think Jamie psych'd himself into a stroke for a second there when he smelled toast
Gordon Ramsay would be hilarious to watch talk them through something
Hey don't be so hard on Barry, some of us aren't auditory learners 😂 I would also need all the instruction repetition haha
Lol the look on Ben's face is freaking priceless.
Honestly, this community is so pure. There's not even a single comment about the definition of docking.
