Does he have the recipes for these videos somewhere?
I was taught to never cut or use an immersion blender to make pizza or spaghetti sauce. Only hand crush, the smoother you want it, the more hand crushing! Supposedly releases less acid from the tomato and needs less/no sugar added to it. But maybe it’s just the old Italian lady’s tradition because blenders didn’t exist when she started in the kitchen.
Why didn’t you make your own pasta for any of the levels
I think it would be interesting if you kept the budget the same, so like $25/$50, but changed the amount of time you could spend on it. So the ingredients don’t have to be the same but you have to stay in budget and use the time that you have for simmering, or letting meat rest etc.
I hate anti-capitalist arguments. What system is it exactly that gets rid of poverty even close to as well as capitalism does? Nothing.
The fact is, no system is better at encouraging people to do nice things for people they don't know and may never meet than capitalism.
27:22 Babish, you’re not only an amazing chef but a comedic genius…!!!
This is one of those episodes that reminds me of why I started watching binging’
I think more wagyu is used on YouTube than is eaten in the real world
I hate that Garth Brooks microphone
I’m watching while in fact eating spaghetti and meat sauce. Same thing just easier.
As a Venezuelan… lentil meatballs give me ptsd (can’t deny they’re tasty tho)
So we can't get homemade spaghetti pasta at any price point? 😢
as a swe and the master of meat balls..not approved
You want a real poor person's spaghetti? Get a $0.25 pack of ramen, cooked, Add to a sauteed part of an onion ($0.10), chopped, a little diced bell pepper ($0.22), and one sliced cheap hot dog ($.025). Add a couple tablespoons of ketchup ($0.05), a little soy sauce ($0.03) and some garlic powder ($0.01) and mix in the ramen. Add a slice of cheese ($0.06). Total: $0.97. This is spaghetti Napolitan, a Japanese invention that came out of post-WW2 Japan, and not only does it cost under a dollar, it's max comfort food and delicious. Millions of Japanese people are not wrong.
The intermissions are soooo funny
I really love the intro song on these videos
I prefer pasta that is made with semolina.
The 50 dollar dish is probably just 40 dollar spaghetti and meatballs if you don't get the "luxury" pasta
My Sicilian grandmother never made sauce. Once it had meat, it was gravy.
i thought cooking basil was avoided because too much heat destroys some / most of the aromatic compounds in the herb. i FEEL like my personal experience bears that out, but it's hard to gauge how much placebo taints those experiences.
