He’s absolutely right. The dregs of British cuisine is compared to the premier of other’s cuisine to give the Brits a bad name. The Japanese equivalent to beans on toast, for example, isn’t some master plate of assorted sushi/sashimi, or a bowl of ramen, or some ridiculously expensive wagyu beef - it’s the sticky white rice and natto plenty of ordinary Japanese people are actually eating. It’s the bowl of plain old miso soup - the sad bowl, the one that hasn’t even had seaweed or tofu added. I think it comes from the French. The only thing they have over on Britain is the cuisine of the upper echelons - the Brits were busy kicking their ass.
I was born in Mexico, love that you know your bean culture. There's also Mexican ranch style beans, it's made in a pot, it's like soup. There's onions, pork skin, cilantro, spices, and bacon!
I'll be genuinely disappointed if this isn't a full series (Though, of course, I'd understand). This is absolutely brilliant. Just hanging out in the kitchen, drinking, making something that you genuinely care about and telling stories about how your dad used to do it, or why you do it this way, and just... Making stuff, even if it's as simple as fried beans on plain white bread. I'm sure there's not an endless supply of foods that have as much of a history for you as this, but even just hanging out and making something while rambling at a camera... I mean, you rambling at a camera is half of what got Fact Fiend going. Also, thanks for giving me a better appreciation of beans on toast and such.
Honestly, it being easy dishes would make it way better. There's no way I can make some chef grade food that uses 3 pans simultaneously at home. But I'll definitely try fried beans now again
As the modern country originates from English colonisers, beans on toast is also common in Australia, though it is slightly more common as a breakfast rather than a general meal
As the modern country originates from English colonisers, beans on toast is also *also* common in New Zealand, though it is slightly more common as a breakfast rather than a general meal
Respect for the heirloom frying pan, I've got a pair of iron skillets that came from my dad and his mom before that, so I understand the feels. My broke folk comfort food is chili and ramen noodles
Vraiment?Je suis supris qu'un francais dirait ca sur des haricots sur toast. Le dernier frois que j'etais en france j'ai trouvé le sauce pour des haricots trop fade et besoin un peu de purée de tomates pour la saveur. Merci pour essai notre nurriture et je suis desole si mon francais est mal.
I'll be damned. I enjoyed this way more than I thought. And as an American who had the exact preconceived notions you stated, this was WILDLY educational. I grew up poor, too, so I have an appreciation for food born out of necessity. Beans on toast is in the same exact family as a fried bologna sandwich (made with cheap meat and the cheap, starchy white bread). I tip my hat to you, Karl. You've improved my life.
Love it. Nothing better than cooking done on the cheap by Dad. My Dad used to fry beans, waited till they could part like the red sea and poured eggs on and put sausage or bacon in as well to make an omelette.
All that detail about types of bean, sauce flavours, types of fat, very insightful... starts to cook, forgets what a hob is called! Bless you Karl, you're a delight to watch! This video has earned my subscription to the Untitled Side Channel 👏
That reminds me of my favourite dish that our dad used to cook for us when mum was away - eggs and potatoes with mustard sauce :) It sounds atrocious but I love it and the mustard sauce is the most primitive recipe topped probably only by scrambled eggs. In the most basic form it's just a water with some salt, a bit of fat, few spoonfuls of mustard and some flour to thicken the sauce. If you want to be fancy you can use a broth as a base, add some spices but that's about it. Hardboiled eggs, boiled potatoes, sauce and, bam!, you've got yourself a comfort meal :)
I'd just watched the for faq sake where you showed how to open a beer with anything, so quite an apt opener. A friend now lives in the US and the other reason that beans on toast isn't so savory over their is they add sugar to their bread so toast itself is super sweet to us.
I love the fire safety advice, you never know who needs it. I once had a sister-in-law try to put out a pan fire with flower once. im just glad the lid was on the counter.
Bloody love me some sausage and beans! Didn’t think to cook the beans down in a frying pan but since hearing how you make it when you first talked about it, I’ve always done it. Such an earnest video with a story behind it that warmed my heart much like a plate of beans on toast.
So glad to see this idea finally come to light! Such a simple idea, so fun, and weirdly informative, I would definitely be up for seeing this being a series.
When we were skint when I was a kid, my dad sometimes fed me with sugar sandwiches! They seemed great when I was a kid, but as an adult they sound absolutely grim lol
Even though it's not an exact match the closest I've found to the British baked beans is pork and beans. I've found that they taste better cooking them in the Smallwood fashion slung on buttered toast or fried bread.
I never knew English baked beans were savory! I just assumed they were sweet because that's literally all I've ever known. Also, US baked beans also is great on toast. I got into that when having hotdogs with baked beans, skip a step and put the beans on the hotdog. omg mmmm
"Its got the ring pull thanks dad" Must be an honor being the spawn of the mad lad who put enough pressure on a mega corporation to change packaging standards. The Smallwood bean legacy will live strong.
I'll be honest when you 1st spoke of the smallwood fried beans I thought there be a trick to it... there isn't! This is exactly how I do my fried beans too! (Except nowerday I add a little reggae reggae sauce) absolutely loved this video! Pure nostalgia! Keep it up and bring on the Karl smallwood cooking while drunk channel! Xxx
Ooooooo get Lord Moneybags over here with his reggae reggae sauce 😜 there's a big ass bottle of cheap sweet chili sauce in my cupboard that I use for beans (and when I say cheap I mean 59p for a litre of the stuff)
chips, fry ups, fried beans. so many things I have no idea what your talking about. make this a series because honestly watching non professional chefs cook is one of the most interesting things there is because its not done "correctly" its done to what I think tastes good and no two dishes done like that are the same ever.
Holy…shit. Holy fucking shit. This is…this is beautiful. Please do more. I’m signing up for Patreon right now for more of this alone. Wow hats off to all of you. Karl, be my dad lol
One of the reasons I really love about watching all of your videos is learning about the culture, and more specifically the differences and similarities between our cultures.
I have already tried cooking fried beans a couple of months ago, when I heard you talk about them on your channel But I’m glad to have a full cooking tutorial for this (I’m from Britain so I’ve got a surplus of wonderful Heinz beanz to cook with)
I like that style a bit more than barbecue baked beans. That savory flavor hits the soul differently than the saccharine flavor profile in most people's recipe here in the States.
hey Karl - regarding the Tesco beans and all products, that are shop's brands for that matter - more often than not those products come from exactly the same factory and are exactly the same product, as the expensive ones. It's usually a part of the aggrement between shops and manufacturers - we sell your product and as a part of payment for that you provide us with your product, branded by us, that we sell cheaper. Just look at the packaging for who has made those - and that's true for A LOT of the self-branded products. TL:DR - there is a chance, that the expensive Heinz beans are exactly the same as the cheap tesco ones.
My grandmother would take the baked ham leftover from holiday meals and make a ham and navy bean soup. It didn’t have the tomato base and the beans were from dried, but we’d eat it with toast. Always made me think about the British dish. I kinda get it.
I'm not a bean guy, but I hear you. Grew up on weet-bix and vegemite sandwiches ( yes yes, Aussie here, Oi Oi Oi and all that ) but I really miss my mum's pikelets (small pancakes ) they were done on an old electric hot-plate, which got lost between a house move. I was gifted a new hot-plate but couldn't re-create that weekend breakfast treat. Everyone has one signature dish, others can copy it but never replace it.
On the two notes of things like family recipes and simple dishes that can be made by basically anyone: I have a family recipe from my late great grandma who got it from her mom who passed when I was 3. Being a family of Swedish immigrants to the USA, well, they had to make a dish to feed 2 kids, and we settled on baked Mac and cheese, which, for anyone wondering uses 0 meat, but is chock full of protein and fat, perfect for feeding growing kids when you're trying to make a living in America. We do have other dishes, like palt, but we did leave that weird fish head thing behind.
since i was little i've been intrigued by beans on toast, and since i first began watching fact fiend videos years ago and hearing karl's stories and tips about fried beans i've been looking forward to the moment i can find british style baked beans and make fried beans on toast. now when that time comes i will use this tutorial
I’m also from the UK and this is exactly how I’ve always cooked beans on toast except I use a saucepan and if I’m feeling particularly shit I add in some bacon along with the fat and right at the end add some cheese and or Worcester sauce, honestly one of my favourite comfort foods! It can be a nuanced, intensely flavourful and layered meal if given the time and attention.
Really lovely to see different style of video and presentation from you guys. Karl is always charismatic and entertaining in the fact fiend videos, and because of that I found it remarkable the thoughtful eloquence he brought to this video (and I’m only a third of the way through it!). I’m a line cook and food is my life, so I’m always grateful when someone takes the time to offer insight about the foods they love and mean something special to them. It’s truly a wonderful thing, so thank you guys. Keep up the wonderful work
Watching you cook is interesting, wasn't expecting facts at the start but it fits with your video style. Hope you make more of these in the future, these are fun to watch.
My equivalent of this I called ”Farmer's Brown” when I was a kid. I'd buy these super cheap junky TV dinners that were sold multiple for a dollar. A maybe beef, a maybe pork, and a maybe bird, all with a mashed potatoes and veggie side. Crack them open into a large bowl while still frozen, gravy sides and all. Microwave, stir, done. The name came from the idea that I put a whole farm into a bowl... And it looked the same going in as out. Nowadays the only surviving TV dinner brand I used to use for it that I can find are $2 each and if the meat to soy ratio shifts any further they may be able to pass them off as a meatless entree.
Tbh I totally get this feeling for baked beans my favourite meal and comfort food. Is mashed potatoes baked beans on top and cut up sausages inside the mash. With the beans poured over the mash. It was a meal I always had from my mam when she couldn't offered much but kept her family of 5 kids fed and happy
As a child of Mexican immigrants in the US, I don't get the hate for beans on toast, I grew up eating refried beans on bolio, a crusty french style bread and I loved it, it's still a go to comfort food for me
This reminds me of a meal I did when I had to survive on 15 bucks for two weeks. I would buy four kilos of potato’s for 1,50, a German “jagtwurst” (hunters sausage, basically a really cheap huge sausage) for 5 bucks and the cheapest mayo I could find. So I would love on that, twice a day, for two weeks until the next paycheck arrived and I still occasionally make it as it is strangely comforting.
Yes. Yes absolutely make this a series, even if it's just beans again and again, this was one of the best videos I've seen in months!
“Karl cooks Beans” a new weekly show
@@d3lta1
Yes!
Great series
I don't know...how many dishes can Karl teach us, before we get a video of Brad microwaving British bacon?
@@coledibiase5971 nice profile pic
I was not prepared for the level of childlike joy in this video. Outstanding.
cooking with karl should be a regular series
I hadn't considered the criticism of British food to be classist.
Also, that was a sweet story about the frying pan.
He’s absolutely right. The dregs of British cuisine is compared to the premier of other’s cuisine to give the Brits a bad name. The Japanese equivalent to beans on toast, for example, isn’t some master plate of assorted sushi/sashimi, or a bowl of ramen, or some ridiculously expensive wagyu beef - it’s the sticky white rice and natto plenty of ordinary Japanese people are actually eating. It’s the bowl of plain old miso soup - the sad bowl, the one that hasn’t even had seaweed or tofu added.
I think it comes from the French. The only thing they have over on Britain is the cuisine of the upper echelons - the Brits were busy kicking their ass.
@@potato6785 love whenever a conversation about Britain turns into France slander lol
@@BigMan-kp6ug It’s not slander when it’s objectively true
@@potato6785 you make a good point. Perhaps French bullying is a better way to put it.
I was born in Mexico, love that you know your bean culture. There's also Mexican ranch style beans, it's made in a pot, it's like soup. There's onions, pork skin, cilantro, spices, and bacon!
But wait. There's more.
Cook. That. Shit. In. Beer.
Borracho beans ♡
"Do we want to make this a series folks?"
Yes. Yes, we do.
I would love for this to turn into a series, it's probably the most wholesome and watchable cooking video I've ever seen
100% agree!!! please Karl

Baked beans on toast I love. Or a baked bean toastie or tin spaghetti in a toastie. Bliss

We would buy even if it was just the beans
''These ones have a ring-pull on them, thanks dad.'' - I understood that reference.

I'm Mexican and Karl just taught me where the term "refried beans" came from
This is the first time I've ever actually listened to a pre-recipe ramble
It's the cooking show I didn't know was missing from my life
This is the kinda perfection that reminds me fondly of my own working class family raisings.
"Like moses himself stepped into my fuggin kitchen" 😂 😂 😂
I'd just watched the for faq sake where you showed how to open a beer with anything, so quite an apt opener. A friend now lives in the US and the other reason that beans on toast isn't so savory over their is they add sugar to their bread so toast itself is super sweet to us.
That part when he says " fucking moses is in my kitchen right now" i freaken lost it 😆 🤣
I’m Irish and love beans on toast. It’s such a comforting food
So British, so genuine, so perfect.
This video has the vibes of brealfast after staying over with your uncle for a night as a kid with your ds. Very relaxed and fun.
I love the fire safety advice, you never know who needs it. I once had a sister-in-law try to put out a pan fire with flower once. im just glad the lid was on the counter.
An ancestral pan for a specific dish seems pretentious, but being used to make comfort food instantly brings it to a level of wholesome that I love.
My version of fried beans (cheap comfort food), ramen noodles with a fried egg. Discovered this one drunk night. Best cheap food ever.
My personal favorite is mayo, and cheese sandwich on white bread
Downloaded this so I can actually watch it when I go to make baked beans and toast for myself.
Bloody love me some sausage and beans! Didn’t think to cook the beans down in a frying pan but since hearing how you make it when you first talked about it, I’ve always done it.
Such an earnest video with a story behind it that warmed my heart much like a plate of beans on toast.
Came for the beans, stayed for the genuine and sincere joy. Then replayed the video for the beans again.
So glad to see this idea finally come to light! Such a simple idea, so fun, and weirdly informative, I would definitely be up for seeing this being a series.
Please make this a series. It was strangly really fun watching you make beans

Never thought I'd find someone getting drunk in their kitchen cooking beans so entertaining but here I am. Please make this a series.

Also, US baked beans also is great on toast. I got into that when having hotdogs with baked beans, skip a step and put the beans on the hotdog. omg mmmm
This is the one person who can make the story part of recipe blogs entertaining, with swearing
They've recently started selling British style beans in my country, and this has become one of my favorite cheap comfort meals. Thank you Karl.
"Its got the ring pull thanks dad"
Must be an honor being the spawn of the mad lad who put enough pressure on a mega corporation to change packaging standards. The Smallwood bean legacy will live strong.

Karl's comfort food: fried beans on toast
My comfort food: REfried beans & commodity cheese on homemade tortilla
The moment you put the beans in the pan, I hallucinated the smell of baked beans.
Wonderful.
Amazing to finally see the family heirloom from all the stories
One of the reasons I really love about watching all of your videos is learning about the culture, and more specifically the differences and similarities between our cultures.
I thought that pan got stolen , well regardless glad Karl has his family bean pan
I have already tried cooking fried beans a couple of months ago, when I heard you talk about them on your channel
But I’m glad to have a full cooking tutorial for this (I’m from Britain so I’ve got a surplus of wonderful Heinz beanz to cook with)
Love mixing British style beans with ground beef and sauteed onions.
I think the actual analogue of your style of beans would be “ranch style beans” they’re the ones we have in a tomato sauce.
I like that style a bit more than barbecue baked beans. That savory flavor hits the soul differently than the saccharine flavor profile in most people's recipe here in the States.
Yeah BBQ baked beans should stay with BBQ.. honestly they need a good potato salad as the other side to even them out just right.
@@SecretSexSkeleton Yooo! Spittin' truth right there!!

The name came from the idea that I put a whole farm into a bowl... And it looked the same going in as out.
Nowadays the only surviving TV dinner brand I used to use for it that I can find are $2 each and if the meat to soy ratio shifts any further they may be able to pass them off as a meatless entree.
Karl you always impress me when you pop open a beer with anything without fail

Kooking with Karl is such a fun concept. I await the Binging with Babish collaboration.
I've been lucky enough to have been quite well off. Beans were always an extra option I never went for.
