#pancakesrecipe - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
Just wanted to add to the chorus and say I love this style of video! I've been wondering why my pancakes never turn out as well as I'd like them to. This is such a well-explained method. I know I'll be coming back to this video for future reference!
I love that you're not afraid to try out new formats and ideas. Thanks guys!
Thanks Cooper - glad to hear it was easy to follow... never lets us down! Works every time.
@@SortedFood DO MORE OF THESE VIDEOS PLEASE!!! Roast potatoes? kimchi? so many options!
Actually, tried this ratio of pancakes today for breakfast and came out perfect! 👌
Don't think I'll ever buy a box of mix again, thanks!
It's great to have "just" a recipe video again. I love your other formats, of course but this is how I got know the channel and I really like the simplicity of it!
Exactly! I miss the recipe videos!
Plus, while the other formats are very fun they aren't really meant to help us, so this is what I think most of us really wanted - help from the pros.
I was thinking the same thing, Old school Sorted
I'm hoping for more of these! I want to see a pickling video from Jamie next!
Yes! I want more 3 recipes compared and CBA2C!
"you wouldn't wear your lacy underwear inside out, would you?" BEN, SIR, I LOVE YOU
🤮
@@SortedFood his humor is *chefs kiss*
He wouldnt know.
M S or maybe he knows from experience. We don’t know for sure what he’s wearing right now, underneath.
Thought he was going to say "on the outside". Who's gonna know if they are inside out if still underneath 🤔
The overhead camera to include Mike filming is a nice touch. Hope to see more of that please 👍 Even if it’s not Mike behind the camera
Sorted. On a friday! I thought for two seconds it was sunday 😂
Omg you read my mind love it!!! WE NEED MORE SORTED!!!!
Same hahaha. I was very confused😂
Same!
We thought you should start your weekend early!
@@SortedFood and it is easier now to make pancake for a weekend breakfast. It would be harder if we get this recipe at Sunday afternoon. ;)
Getting flashbacks to the 3:2:1 cookie video from ages ago. I really missed this kind of videos, it's always a pleasure watching Ben cook and the way he explains so clearly!
Ben is such a great chef and also a wonderful teacher, who can explain things so well and makes it easy to follow him. Really liked this format, it feels a bit more personal with the camera angle and the simplicity!
Ben is the TV chef we all need in our lives - he explains so well
I had to double check my phone to ensure myself I hadn't time travelled...
Same
Me too
Same
I got gooey in the middle 😀
Same!!! And so thrilled it’s 3 x a week now!!
This more "spontaneous" format is actually really great! Feels more "weekend-y" so to say! Love it!
Thanks - another recipe-less challenge on Sunday with all the usual chaos. But glad you liked this alternative.
@@SortedFood it's very reminiscent of the older fridgecams, screams, flashing colours and all
The lack of “hey, we’re sorted” threw me for a loop. But this is awesome, I’m constantly having to look up recipes for simple things but now I know, 1:1:1!
"Hi, i'm Ben chef at sortedfood" that sounded way too adorable when we all know who you are hun
This was lovely, gents. The handheld camera, the personable nature of the episode, and the overall ease of the message - just wonderful.
Oh my God hi Adam! It's Nevina XD Cool to see you in the comments!
@@MsWicicala - I am, in current internet terms - a SORTEDstan. I love these creative, informative, genuine food dorks.
This is a great format - love the music and the visuals and clear explanations too, would definitely like to see more of these in the future!
Yes, the format is great, and it means getting back to the recipes. That's what I'm here for.
totally agree,
“Fold in” will forever remind me of Schitts Creek😆
Ben's confidence when he explained the mechanical raising agent really suits him!
Chocolate mousse! Whisk it up with sugar (I started adding a bit of cream cheese and love it), add melted chocolate, fold, bam! Nice dark chocolate covers the chickpea-y flavour that will still be there and be a bit off-putting for some.
See THIS is what I love about sorted! They've never forgot there roots. You could watch there first ever video (also do this!) and this one and they have not really changed! They are STILL those great foodie nerds we've all loved since day one
I can barely keep track of days of the week thanks to working every day each week during the pandemic. Sorted is one of the few things that helps me know what day it is. A Friday video damn near fried my brain trying to figure out what day it was! 🤣
We're sorry!! LOL
Wait, so you're telling me that I SHOULDN'T be wearing my lacy underwear inside out?!
You do you! Ha
I'm so happy you'll be doing these this month! I hope all the positive responses will be enough for you to consider extending the series beyond September. This is exactly what Fridays are missing, some fresh Ben sass.
Having gluten free and dairy free alternatives touched on at the end is huge for me! More of that
Same here, i have to eat gluten-free and i loved how they put these little side notes in the video! Thank you!
I feel like it helps a lot to understand the fundamentals of how cooking/baking works too
Same! Also I tried the chickpea substitute with the 1-1-0.5 crepes. They’re pretty good, but I could have gone for a wider pan. Will make again
Same! Also, it would be really fun if they had a couple of gluten-free challenges, were they try to recreate common gluten-rich dishes, but gluten-free. Like donuts or deep fried chicken.
Oh good! I'm a vegan but I was watching anyway cause I love the channel. Nice to know we're included.
Have to be honest, I was really missing the old school, Ben cooking a recipe videos, so this is really welcomed!
Not gonna lie, videos like this is the reason I love sorted
it honestly doesn't matter what the format is, y'all are just informative and fun to watch
This was a great video! I would love to see a similar video on bread ratios!
Great shout!
Featuring the other chef and renowned bread man James!
I'm not going to lie, I saw the upload and immediately questioned what day it was 🤣
It's not even a pancake it's a drop scone
Same!! 😂
girlsdrinkfeck aka Scotch Pancakes
I have to say, I admire people who even manage to realize a) what day it is, b) what day any given youtuber is supposed to upload.
@@teodora9280 I knew what day it is and saw @sortedfood video and was like wow i dont have youtubers upload schedules memorized most of the youtubers I watch do 5 days a week vlogs or @SORTEDfood usually wednesday and sunday
Big fan of the idea of a new series of covering just the basics of foods that seem (and are) quite simple but are rarely explained properly. And of course, Ben is a born educator and delivers brilliantly.
I just get wound up when people say they can't do it... so desperately try to simplify. I want everyone to succeed. Thanks.
Is there a more precious human being on this planet than Ben?
The answer is no.
SUCH a good idea team! Ngl, when my phone popped up telling me there was a new SF video, kinda lost my mind.
Hope you enjoy it!! There's plenty more to come!
I was genuinely missing these "simple" recipe videos! I love the challenges and reviews, and you have plenty recipes online but I really enjoy learning basic skills :)
Why aren't these videos required viewing in all middle and high schools?!?!? Simply brilliant. Wish you would do a risotto one!!! Thank you so much for making cooking simple and accessible.
I think I finally understand the respect chefs truly deserve. The first pancake wasn't a sacrificial mess.
Full on 💯 to Mike for keeping tab on Ben and probably his innuendos 😂😂
other than the method, i love the chilling feeling from this video, like a break from those challenges and cooking battle
A little calmer... hopefully just as useful.
@@SortedFood definitely useful
A moment of peace amidst the chaos xD
I love when it’s just Ebbers. I mean I love when it’s any of the cast but Ben always has a soothing energy when it’s just him
Now the others try to make their own version:
Jamie: "Can you pancake a steak?"
Barry: "Okay, I need a red pepper and a torch."
"What are you making Baz?"
"You're getting a sandwich."
Love this series, plenty more of this please!!!! Love learning chef tips cause they always help me out and save time
Therapist: "Swole Ben doesn't exist, he can't hurt you."
Swole Ben: 2:16
This should be higher...
I love this!
I almost choked on my sandwich when he started flexing 😂 sorry ben!
Don't forget that Ben is a "bit of a lad" th-cam.com/video/9JQ3WsYUjGA/w-d-xo.html
@@khanhhuynh7497 Never let him forget! Lol
"You wouldn't wear your lacey underwear inside out would you?" I was not expecting that😂
OMG-it is so good to see Ben in front of the stove doing what he does best. Great recipe ideas for pancakes and crepes.
I love this throw back feeling format! Learning how to cook better is always something I need. I'd love to see these continue.
I've waited for this video since Monday's Instagram Stories! Love the format, you guys should keep doing this 👍
Viewer from Denmark here!
If you ask for pancakes in Denmark you will get served crepes. And we don't call them crepes, we just call them "Pancakes (Pandekager)". If you want the fluffy kind, they will most often be called "American Pancakes (Amerikanske pandekager"). Most often they're served with caster sugar and some type of marmelade (Strawberry being the most popular), but of course people put everything in them, from nutella to ice cream and so on.
Savory pancakes are not as big of a thing in Denmark, although you definitely are able to find it.
We also have Æbleskiver (Meaning "Apple slices" when translated), which is a pancake like creation. A batter much closer to buttermilk pancakes is poured into a special pan (often cast iron) with hemispherical indentations in it. You flip them, and in the end you end up with a spherical pancake, which is often served with powdered sugar and marmelade. Funny enough, there are no apples in them.
If you had to summarize my childhood in terms of desserts, it would be a stack of pancakes with caster sugar and black current marmelade (Pretty popular marmelade in Denmark)!
Absolutely love that you have brought back some smaller, recipe-specific videos. These are the videos which are absolutely vital for me to continue learning, while the Wednesday/Sunday videos are just great fun and teachy.
This video arrived literally as I was pondering what to make for breakfast, amazing 👍
We can hear your thoughts!!
Lunch is now Sorted 😁
why no sugar in the pancakes?
5:04 I see. Ben is cleaning up the fridge and decided to use the leftover ingredients to make pancakes. Since he was making them anyway, he and Mike made a video and posted it on a non-upload day.
that's a wholesome theory innit
I love this series.
This is what I fell in love with the Sorted Channel. Simple recipes and trick/tips to help "normals" with their cooking
I would love more of these videos!! Chill, informative and super useful!
It's not 4 pm and it's Friday, I'm confused 😅
You're confused! I was wondering what the hell had happened to Saturday.
Living these basics videos. Bring them on boys!
Oh. WE WILL ;)
SORTEDfood how about doing a two part meringue/pavlova recipe. I mean it has been 6 years since the last pavlova 😔
This was a lovely break from the usual content. I love the conversational "no-stress" style every now and then.
This is such a throwback Sorted video and I LOVED IT! This is how I feel in love with the channel, seeing Ben teach and give tips and tricks is so great, and hearing Mike behind the camera! I love the new formats too but having a few of these videos every couple uploads would be great! GREAT JOB!
Notification for vid popped up and I was like nah its not Sunday is it lol
Ben: you're wonderful! I'm going to share this with my non-cooking friends. The ratio is perfect!
Love this format! Great, simple instructions that also explains WHY you are doing things that way and how the different elements interact. Definitely looking forward to more of these.
This made me so happy! I've genuinely missed just teaching recipe videos like you guys used to do. i would love to see more of these!
Last time I was this early...it was Wednesday or sunday.
We're either really early, or terribly late!!
@@SortedFood or treating us to more content right?....right?
SORTEDfood
Dont mind awesome So hungry now
More the better!!! I also love actual recipes being done again. Miss that part
I echo other comments - love this format. I learned a good bit today and I’m ready to try this out. Ben, you are a good teacher. You never sound preachy or condescending. I’ve been watching a year now, and I think this might be my favorite format. And there was a Benuendo! :)
This is my favorite video in so long! I’ve been following sorted since nearly the inception. I used to watch to learn how to be a better cook. I’ve really missed seeing these cheats, tips, and tricks. This video gave me all the feels 😁
When he cut into that yolk though. 😯 dont think ive ever seen one that dark before.
Free range chicken eggs. If you only ever buy grain-fed, cage raised chicken eggs there's a world of difference between them.
@@exqueue3813 ive bought pasture raised before mine have just never been that dark. Could be lighting too though.
I think there might have been some colour correction done on that shot, they were basically red
It is very much the diet and freshness of the eggs. Our chickens’ yolks would get this color when we fed them a lot of carrot or sweet potato. It was a little disconcerting the first time, though!
I've had eggs from a family friends' farm and they were very vibrant, but nowhere near that orange :0 I'd definitely believes specific diet influenced that
A little friday bonus? Love it! Never thought about measuring up my ratios, always go for 1 cup for each egg. Now that you say it it sounds obvious 😆 guess I need to think like a chef
I love this format. It’s not really a recipe vid but more skill level up video. A balance between the videos that show the difference between a chef and a normal and videos that help normals of all levels bridge that gap.
Ben is a natural as a teacher.
What a treat! For 2 years now you guys have made me smile 😃
I'd love to see this as a regular thing. Chef tips on home cooking is 👌
This was so easy to comprehend! I'm trying them tomorrow for breakfast! 😍
Glad you think so... aiming to demystify!
@@SortedFood doing a great job at it! 🤩
This was the best surprise seeing this in my sub box on a Friday! Really looking forward to more videos in this series, I really enjoy the straightforward recipe videos! Can't wait to see more
This is the stuff I've been waiting for. Ben and his encyclopedic knowledge of ratios.
Ben is such phenomenal teacher, such a natural.
Thank you for this recipe! I immediately make the crepes, they turned out really good! I also made a fresh peaches and garden picked blackberry jam to serve on the crepes. For the side, I made scrambled tofu with garden tomatoes. I enjoyed pairing fresh produce from my garden with this recipe!
Wow, sounds delicious
I knew I liked Ben, but now, I think he’s a FREAKING ROCK STAR! More please!
The timing of this video could not be better!! After literally YEARS of watching cooking shows and videos, I've finally started trying to put things I've learned into actual action, and cooking meals for myself. One of the things I wanted to learn how to make was homemade pancakes, without a mix! This is so easy, and I can't wait to try it!!
Suggestions for future videos: Omelettes, risotto, simple pasta dishes, pretty much anything that is a simple meal that only takes a few common ingredients. Especially if they are more common or well known dishes!
Yay! New video, i was wondering what i should watch 🥰
I was eating my crepes when i got the notification. you've made my Friday so much better
What a throwback to the white kitchen and Ben just teaching. So nice...
Oddly, this is one of my favourite of their instructional cooking videos ?!?! Everyone wants to know a sure fire way to make great pancakes and crepes. They nailed this in such an easy way to remember and repeated it enough so that it will be stuck in your head for years to come I would imagine.
My dudes. I love your videos but THIS is what I’ve been missing. Actually teaching people how to cook is something y’all have gotten away from a bit on the channel but I’m happy to see it again
this is great, ive sort of missed just recipie videoes with cooking tips
I absolutely adore all your formats, but I truly love this. It feels like early sorted. I like having a video like this to reference back to, and it was lovely to watch. Ben, fantastic bas always.
Best instructional video for pancakes AND crepes, in one video! Loving thr nostalgia, reminds me of your old recipe videos :)
Now that Pancakes are made, can't wait for Sorted to try Dosas !
Disappointed Ben didn’t toss the original crepes. Have confidence
I love the videos of you all having fun, but it’s nice to get some learning in there too! Great video.
I am loving these quick tip videos, thank you for sharing the easy ratios!
"You wouldn't wear your lacy underwear inside out, would you?" Let's just say in response, "Not on purpose."
Let that 'simmer'... to those who got dressed in the dark....
...or for those who aren’t morning people. Those poor souls who walk with two different shoes on, or involuntarily wake up to the taste of salt on their coffee!
Or have sensory problems and choose not to have the seems rub against their skin.
I was confused seeing this pop up... More Sorted is fine with me!
I agree 👏
Who doesn't love a bonus Sorted vidéo! And then you make it about pancakes! What's not to love?! You guys are spoiling us. Thank you, Sorted, for being a bright light in this insane world
Love seeing these old school, straightforward, simple recipe/cooking videos!
Hopefully useful too!
"Butter the pan or butter the batter"- now that's a tongue twister! Say it 5 times faster!
Pls keep this going after the month ends
I like this style of video. It’s very personal, slow paced, and instructional.
It feels like Ben is teaching just me how to cook.
Love the return to the instructional stuff! Great video!!
Question is this now a thing not posting on a Wed or Sunday. I love the videos and am a huge fan. I hope to be an upcoming chef as I am 14. Thanks for being amazing
Still everything you love on a Wednesday and Sunday. Consider this a useful bonus!
I generally questioned myself. Did I mess up the days of the week again? Is today already Sunday? Or actually Wednesday?
Nice surprise guys!
I loved this format of video. The playful banter, multiple camera angles, but still felt like we were just a friend in the kitchen learning about pancakes.
Yes! A spontaneous vid with excellent tips and people! Love it
4:52 is that Heinz' seriously good ketchup egg?
Being serious - I miss read the hashtags and thought for a second it said Ikea Chef...
Also - for gluten free ones, I typically sub out the flour for rice-flour mixed with some potato flour and tapioca flour. Works a treat.
Ooooh, the blend of the three works nicely? Light, crispy, golden?
@@SortedFood yeah - add a little bit of cornflour if wanted.
Just something I picked up from reading around for flour alternatives.
Would love to see more of these simple and straight forward recipe videos. Just great content.
I have just recently found this channel. Love that you are explaining the ratios. Made me feel smart that I went in the kitchen and made pancakes with out a recipe. Woot woot
I thought I lost three days O_O I was worried I had overdone the danger nap.
