I'm surprised he didn't demonstrate how to make sure that the beak is out of the middle of the tentacles. No matter how good your fishmonger is its possible that one could be overlooked and it's so hard that it can actually break a tooth if bitten down on hard enough. Just put your finger into the hole in the middle of the tentacles and if you feel something like a pebble then you just pop it out. But this is an important step.
Google it. There are a number of different manufacturers, and I think they didn’t want to give free advertising to one without doing a comparison test.

As far as discarding used oil: i keep an old plastic jar (usually a mayo jar) in the freezer. I pour the oil in the jar until trash it is full. Once it's full, i take it to the trash on trash day. I would like to have seen suggestions as to how to recycle the oil for future uses. I've always struggled when I tried to filter out the food bits.
Can I incorporate some of that batter technique for fried chicken?? My fried chicken crust ALWAYS falls off and slips right off. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I like a sharp horeseradish. I wouldn't buy a preapred creamy brand though, just mix my own. I live near Kelchner's manufacturing. Their horseradish has great heat but I noticed, heat and moisture diminishes over refrigeration time. THe other cheaper brand is Gold's which I don't like.
I like that I can watch these episodes here on TH-cam before they air on Create. That's the only place I can watch them. But the one I saw today on Create with Lakeman Jackson doing steaks in a cast iron skillet - I can't find it here on YT. I wanted the watch the cast iron skillet review again.
I don't love a two-handed pepper mill. I often find myself in a situation where one hand is gross from touching raw meat, and I only have the other hand for getting pepper onto a thing. "Why don't you just wash your pepper mill after touching it with your gross hands?" "Why don't you plan ahead and grind some pepper into a pinch bowl for later use?" Both of you shut up. I keep most of my herbs and spices in swing-tops that can be opened with one hand and either dispensed with that same hand or dosed out with a measuring implement operated by the dirty hand, keeping the container itself clean. My kosher salt is in a ceramic bowl with a removable lid, so salt-dosing can happen all with one hand. And my blue-can utility salt (mostly for pasta water) has a modified metal-thing (I modify it myself) so it can also be operated with one hand. All of these flavoring agents are accessible with one hand. Pre-ground black pepper is similarly accessible, in those containers with the plastic flip-tops. But we know there's a difference between freshly-ground and pre-ground. I just don't think fresly ground black pepper should require two hands (or a hand and an armpit), when we're such an industrious society. Most of us are blessed with two working hands. It really is a blessing. Let's honor that blessing, yeah? Make the best of our serendipitous symmetry. And then if our kitchens should be visited by a person with fewer implements, we're still good because we've got on-demand ground black pepper, less-discriminatory, with our one-handed pepper mills. I went electric and I use it almost every day. It takes two AA batteries which need to be replaced every... I don't know... 3-5 years? It almost never comes up. But you can get a squeezy-handle thing if you don't want to deal with the batteries.
Dogfish filets are some of the best for batter fry applications. It's a 'trash' fish (really, a shark) in that it's not targeted much. Firm and dense and won't break up easy like cod. It just has an unfortunate name and name is so important to NA markets.

Anyway :) IKEA 365+ IHÄRDIG $7.99 Clear glass base with dark top (grinder) I've ended buying four total over the years, not because they break down but for pepper, salt, fennel seeds and one more for anything else I might need.

@@gardenwarrior77 Thanks so much for being so helpful! I looked on Ikea and found it. They also have jars the grinder top fits on in case you want to use it for other spices or salt.

Hi Emily. I bet you could although I do not know. But what's wrong with using the lager. It's seems easy and it works. My favorite method :) Of course if one is allergic to beer, I get the point. I don't see what the vodka adds though.

well made fried calamari is a thing of absolute beauty
That fish looked delicious! I'd love to see a segment showing ways to make a similar fish sandwich using an air fryer.
" If you give a man a fish he eats that day. If you teach him how to fish he will ALWAYS be late for supper" 😂🤣😆😅🎣🐟😋
Made the fish sandwiches last night and they were excellent. I will definitely be making this recipe again. Thanks so much!
"If you give a man a fish he'll eat for a day. If you teach a man to fish he'll sit in a boat and drink beer all day."
That would be me. 😂
Hehehe
😂😂😂
For fried food, use a smaller diameter pot with half the oil. Only need enough to cover by half then flip (since it floats anyway).
Yum - fried calamari in three minutes! Makin' THAT! ❤

Two of my favorite chefs and my friend Pete loves them!!
Thx for more excellent content! 💚 Bridget and Julia!!
I'm loving these head to head tastings with both Julia and Bridget
I was just going to say!
Weird that Dan didn't give us the name of the product for gelling oil waste.

I like Grolsch lager for my beer batter. The flavor is a bit more assertive, and my friends and I like it.

It does look good
What did Dan put in the oil to solidify it? 🥰
love
FryAway and SolidFry are two brand names.
@@vodiak Thanks for those names - helps a lot!❤
I want to try the fish coating on the calamari. I can only picture it as wonderful.
Wow is alls I can s say, simple easy and delicious 👌
Hey, Dan-what's the NAME of the "product that solidifies the oil"???
20:11 America's Test Kitchen are jumping on the "cursed food" trend and I love it! 😂
There was a time when I would eat this regularly but now have to cut back on my deep fried food.
A dash of dill in the sauce
Can I incorporate some of that batter technique for fried chicken?? My fried chicken crust ALWAYS falls off and slips right off. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Yummm, my friend and I would go to our local restaurant and order calamari and mashed potatoes and gravy, delicious!
Everything is not about (Sarcasm) GLORIOUS New England.
RI has the best food in the country.
What ingredient are you adding to the oil to make it solidify?

Is that the king of beers?
The last guy sounds like he's saying MELT but apparently he means MILK.
love Dan making me feel a little icky for the first time.
How do you store used oil?
A gluten-free recipe for the dish would be helpful.

That is a classical European tartar sauce. It's not American. American tartar sauce is very much dill and dill pickle forward.

What ther heck did he put in the oil to solidify? Way to go not telling us what it is!
Wish they’d lose a couple buttons
What was the point of Dan's segment if he wasn't going to tell us the name of the product???
$50 for a pepper mill?! I'll stick with my $12.50 mill from Publix. I'm trying to fix dinner, not paint the Mona Lisa.
Alam
I lost count of many times did that guy say the word calamari.
It's pronounced watch-yo-sista sauce
I was wrong. Sorry!
How do you make Crispy Fish Sandwich with Tartar sauce? I want it taste healthy and Make foods in America Great Again on America's Test Kitchen.
so... its reversed now... individual first then full episode now?
These jokes give me a haddock.
😋👍🏻
It is pronounced Worst Sister sauce. The calamari is my next project.
No, it's pronounced "what's this here" sauce😂
For the calamari, where do I buy "melk?" 😛
My aunt says it even more like “ Millek”.
I did do a momentary “What?”
😂
I Disagree, Walleyes only
What happened to the nerdy guy with glasses? He was my favorite when I used to what this with my mom years ago.
You mean Chris Kimball? He owned the company, and sold it, and now does the Milk Street shows. He is just as insufferable there too.
