    Obviously it's fun to see Sohla and Ham get stumped and have to rush with their cooking, but wow I really enjoyed just watching them work at their own pace and just make a bunch of solid food here

      Same! I like when they get creative with weird flavor combos but for once, it was nice to just watch them do their thing, no rush.

      It's a nice mix. I just love seeing them get a home run and make stuff I would love to try myself. There's no way I could get a 5 course meal together in an hour, though!!

      Is there a reason they do everything in an hour? That's the only thing I don't like about this series. I would rather just watch them be creative. I watched one recently where they tried to make ice cream and I was really interested to see how it would turn out but of course it ended up just being cold soupy liquid because there wasn't enough time.

    Sohla and Ham have a perfect balance of warmth and lightheartedness. Their videos are like comfort food for me. When it's 9:30pm on a Saturday and I have not changed out of my PJs all day and am being a bit too hard on myself for not getting out of the house, this video is a balm. I can't put my finger on why but I'm just grateful for their videos!

  • @swally2005

    Ham and Sohla have made me want to go out and buy cornflakes again. I had a big box of cornflakes in my pantry for YEARS because I only ever used them as a topping for a cheesy potato casserole I make. After I finally managed to use it up, I never bought another box again, because I didn’t want to be stuck with the same problem again. Can’t believe I didn’t think about frying chicken with cornflakes or using it as a crumble topping. These two are truly creative geniuses in the kitchen.

  • @jvansust
    @jvansust 2 ปีที่แล้ว +75

    Tried to recreate the Mac and Cheese - I did two parts pasta and four parts milk with a big pinch of salt, cooked until tender with a lot of stirring to unstick, finish with 3 parts grated cheese. It was nice - very creamy - and the measurements and technique was easy enough that I delegated a lot to my three year old.

      As long as they’re properly paid to appear, rather than exploited as a condition of keeping their off-camera jobs. (The camera operator shenanigans just seemed like two camera operators and the editors messing with each other this one time, but if it became a regular bit, I would hope that the camera person gets fair-minded, negotiated compensation to appear, even if it’s not a speaking role.)

Sohla's technique for mac and cheese is my favourite way of making mac and cheese too, sometimes I get even lazier and don't even transfer it to a new pot, and just bake it in there.
