imagine waking up parched at 3am and you proceed to your fridge to get a glass of water and see your neighbor making pizza with a gopro strapped to his head
lol you'd see us half drunk getting home at midnight, eating some wretched leftovers (if you're lucky it might get microwaved first) while silently staring into space, then passing out to go back to work in eight hours
I already knew a bit about what some chefs prepared themselves by listening to other chefs during interviews. I remember Bourdain talking about the stuff he and his fellow chefs would make while at the restaurant or after a long shift. It was surprisingly mundane food. He said after hours of working they would make simple and filling food often times on the slightly unhealthy side and comforting. With these home videos we are seeing relatively simple and filling food. Though I wouldn’t say this stuff is unhealthy.
This is fascinating. I’ve used a wheelchair my entire life, so it’s amazing to see a first-person view of everyday stuff: the ease of closing a drawer by bumping it with his hip, casually nudging stuff out of the way with his foot, etc.
“yes, I heard movement, and not surprisingly here I am. I’m gonna keep sniffing ur feet to let you know I’m still here and I won’t listen to any “no” because I can smell what you’re making and I need some of it”
This man is probably the only person in the world that I wouldn’t be mad at if he woke me up in the middle of the night because I know he’s gonna have that good stuff waiting for me.
Almost every video of his is: 80% cooking 15% showing off his fabulous kitchen and overstuffed (from a general point of view)fridge 5% giving food to his dog(s) And I love it
It probably sounds dumb but I’m nostalgic for this old kitchen. I know my way around two kitchens: mine, my parents’, and after Kenji’s early quarantine vids, I feel like I know this one too. I will continue to watch loyally as long as Kenji uploads, but weirdly enough, this is a special kitchen to me
@Ham Salad It was most definitely garlic. Sometimes when garlic gets old, or depending on the variety, its skin can be purple. Shallot on pizza is just weird. Not to mention he says, "eugh. That's garlic. I thought that was pineapple," after eating something off the cutting board at 7:00.
I grew up eating Italian meals but when I tried eating pizza with Pineapple the sourness form the pineapple made me cringe and I love pineapple as fruit but I honestly hated pineapple with pizza I still do 😖
It always feels like he is in a hurry, trying to make it in time or he is being watched and has to finish in a set amount of time. Anyways hes so efficient, well prepared and just knows what hes doing even tho hes improvising here and there. Thats the art of cooking. Much love and all the best from Germany
These videos are so entertaining to watch, like even if your not hungry. This man can easily makes gourmet restaurant food items at his leisure just for like a chill meal, and records it for us. Straight up G.
I find these late-night ones some of the best cooking vids I’ve ever seen (and that includes mainstream television shows). Much more recognisable to real life too. Gotta say I’ve used a lot of them as a template for cooking at home, but with own quantities. Also being a nosey non-American, I do find myself pausing whenever Kenji opens the fridge and googling half the contents to find out what they are and if they sell it over here out of curiosity :D
Denis M I can’t do pineapple in pizza, I’ve walked out of house parties I was invited to because someone ordered a Hawaiian pizza, I’m not interested in talking to someone or associating with someone’s who showcases such wanton judgement.
@@@TheUnnamedAssailant People Who Like Pineapple on Pizza: "Yeah it's weird. But I like it" People Who Don't Like Pineapple on Pizza: "What the fuck? Did your mother drop you on your head when you were a baby?"
Kocak Batin i disagree, put it this way, a pineapple chutney with either a roast pork or beef tenderloin on bed of rice and spices would probably be one of the better rice bowls I can think of. The problem is the tomato sauce, I just can’t find any combination of Hawaiian pizza sauces and pineapple that mesh well to me. The flavor is just plain off.
I honestly feel so validated watching this, not only for it being a pepperoni pineapple pizza on a tortilla but making a full meal at 1 am drunk cause I had a craving (usually a variation on Dan Dan noodles using instant ramen and bacon, works quite well)
one seriuous question: how did you keep track of the tons of stuff you have in the fridge and all the spices without forget about someone and ending up wasteing a lot of stuff?
I know this is a late reply, but in all honesty: For the spices, they last pretty damn long for a small container, like Kenji has. Organize them and you're set. For the fridge, it's easier said than done, but -- three sections: veggies, meat, and others. Horizontal, diagonal, purple, whatever!
Im gonna guess, knowing the chef Kenji is, that he cooks meals using tons of ingredients multiple times a day in his house. So im assuming he uses it all and not much goes to waste.
he did it on purpose because the spark thing wasnt working on that burner, so he put the adjacent one on high. when he saw it took to long to light he went to get a paper towel to transfer the flame, but on his way back it lit itself
we did that sort of thing all the time at a restaurant i used to work at. had a couple eyes that wouldn't always light themselves. just get an adjacent one to do it! totally safe.
I love it when their are no noises coming from the human bit sighs or grunts, makes me feel safe. Edit: what i mean is that when a person is cooking online, they usually have a bunch of talking and music, but this on episode of his has him only make food and only making small noises when he does it.
I know exactly what you mean and I agree. There are so many ‘loud’ cooking channels so it’s a nice change having just the kitchen sounds in these late-night vids
What got me was his quick thinking. After realizing that it wasn't going to light he immediately goes to light a shred of paper towel on fire to transfer to the other burner.
@@JKenjiLopezAlt just looking at the video I honestly had no idea whether that was some really clear broth, some kombucha, some tea, but I assumed it was alcohol after you took a sip.
I did this once. Large flour tortilla works surprisingly well. Mimics a super thin crust pizza without crust. My favorite part is how the cheese caramelizes at the edges of the pizza.
This isn't the average American fridge in all fairness, he's literally a professional chef. And as he writes cook books he probably has a lot of unusual ingredients on hand from recipe development.
Believe it or not most of the things he has in there is sauces. But yeah most american fridges ill say about 70% is used 30% wasted. Of course depending on the family and if they even cook from home and dnt order out.
We aren’t as lucky over here to be able to pick up produce and ingredients everyday from fresh air markets. So we gather lots of food from supermarkets and store it. And yes a lot gets wasted because we forget or we changed our plans.
So many ingredients and & spices, I love how organized he keeps everything. I need some of those storage containers/cups. Looks easier to manage than having 20 different size tupperwares with 8 lids
5:40 The balls on this dude, you can tell he's walking with an expanded chest as he shows off that pineapple The way he tosses them on the pizza too I'm sweating bullets
Pineapple on pizza is just as wrong as Chicago deep dish "pizza". Who the fuck puts a whole can of tomato sauce ON TOP OF CHESSE!?!!??? Who put pineapple on there pizza? . . . Communist that's who.
These late night episodes should be called "Kenji's Drunk Mid Night Munchies"....HA listen to that breathing that's Drunk breathing......OMG he's still got the sparker going on the burner.....OMG Kenji's on one tonight.....LOL my man can still cook up a storm drunk or not......I'd totally party with Kenji...cuz u know at the end of the night ur gonna grub out.....
When you brought out the pineapple, my spouse said "oh Kenji, I'm so disappointed" and I'm here cackling knowing we're both members of Wrong Pizza club. Wrong Pizza club is best pizza club.
This is how I imagine I'm cooking when I'm drunk then I realize I just threw whatever sounded good into one and think I'm a master lol, I strive to do what you do late at night
It's the price to pay as a professional cook in our times. That fast pace is sticky. I'm talking about as it is something negative because it is. It took me a while unlearn the stress while I cook home. Cooks are heroes and they deserve much better treatment than they have. The problem is that most of them don't even know it and many of them support that it's a passion and it worths the price but I don't agree.
You know, if you posted this on facebook and for some unknown reasons an italian middle aged man or woman got to see this.......but the fact is, i'm italian and this looks like something i'd totally do for me and my friends in one of those sleepless nights or lane night dining mood. Channel is great, you are great, your dog is great and your way of cooking reminds me of why it is so important to know how to treat food.

Probably either recorded audio on a lav mic clipped to his collar instead of a bit lower, or worse yet, the in-line microphone on a set of earbuds.
3:39 All that was in my head was the song "That's Tricky" with that ticking noise lol
How did I find you here?
@@beardedhistoryguy1863 lol
Its trick' to rock a rhyme thats right on ti...
Im gonna stop before i get into it x
“That’s Tricky”
i imagine kenji high as hell
whenever he makes these late night videos. there’s no other reason to make a wrong pizza late at night
When you brought out the pineapple, my spouse said "oh Kenji, I'm so disappointed" and I'm here cackling knowing we're both members of Wrong Pizza club. Wrong Pizza club is best pizza club.
In this situation, i'm not particularly certain the pineapple is the reason this is a 'wrong pizza', LOL
not wrong. The only people wrong are the ones gatekeeping food. Pineapple on pizza is delicious.
i don't think the pineapple makes this pizza wrong as much as USING A TORTILLA FOR DOUGH IS lol. still looked delicious

Waiting for the day I get a notification "Kenji went Live!"
I love your cooking show videos, but I think your 'Late night' POV videos are my favorite thing on RUclips.
I'm always so jealous of his ham and cheese shelf in his fridge, wish I had that
He protec

einfach_manu with pineapple pizza
This is how I imagine I'm cooking when I'm drunk then I realize I just threw whatever sounded good into one and think I'm a master lol, I strive to do what you do late at night
I've been getting a lot better at my knife skills and I was proud of the progress I've made. Then I saw 2:21
Tortilla, tomato sauce, oaxaca cheese, chorizo, garlic and pineapple a true Italian classic
me, seeing the title : ahhhh, a tortilla, it couldn't be that wrong..
5:39 : ok, I see what you meant
It always feels like someone is holding a gun to his back when he takes these videos. Everything looks so panicked LMFAO
He's rushing to eat his good food lol
Watch Gordon Ramsey he cooks the same way, that’s how professionals work
It's the price to pay as a professional cook in our times. That fast pace is sticky. I'm talking about as it is something negative because it is. It took me a while unlearn the stress while I cook home. Cooks are heroes and they deserve much better treatment than they have. The problem is that most of them don't even know it and many of them support that it's a passion and it worths the price but I don't agree.
You know, if you posted this on facebook and for some unknown reasons an italian middle aged man or woman got to see this.......but the fact is, i'm italian and this looks like something i'd totally do for me and my friends in one of those sleepless nights or lane night dining mood. Channel is great, you are great, your dog is great and your way of cooking reminds me of why it is so important to know how to treat food.
This how it be when I’m high at 3AM
This made me lol
kenji: i'm going to cook something
dog: i'll clean the floor!
Good shit bro 😂
Now THAT'S how you light your burner! That was awesome.
