I think it's wonderful that so many professional chefs come here to comment on these videos and tell us all how they knew all this already. It was probably covered very early on when they got their culinary degrees from the University of the Food Channel. I'm impressed by them, aren't you?
I think these tips on how to do basic prep for various ingredients is a FANTASTIC idea! This wasn't new to me right now, but it WOULD have been new and REVOLUTIONARY to the Me from 5 years ago! Can't wait for more, even if I already know it it will be helpful to many other people who don't.
I only learned this after working in a kitchen. Everyone needs to watch a tutorial for every vegetable. Fantastic knowledge to have at your fingertips.
I used this method today and loved it. The only thing I did differently was to cut the pepper in half after the pith was removed and stacked it so I could cut 2 planks at a time. Handy method. Thanks!
Thank you for this awesome tip. I made jambalaya yesterday and this would have come in hand when cutting my bell peppers for the trinity. Thank you again.
Great way to cut a pepper. Think I originally saw this back on a Graham Kerr program. Have used since. Also was good general advice on cutting vegs with tough or waxy/slippery skins - cut from inside going through the softer flesh first. Reduces knife slip ups. Thx!!
Thanks that's a very useful tip, i almost never cut with the skin side down because the few times i did it i ended up cuting myself, maybe is just me but i prefer cuting skin side up. Note, mi knives are always sharp so maybe thats something to consider.
Thank you for your informative video. Will you make a video showing how to make a cookie similar to Trader Joe's Belgium Butter Waffle Cookie. Many cooking shows present cookie recipes, but relatively few show how to make thin, crisp cookies, focusing instead on soft baked. I really like crisp cookies. Love your program. Thank you.
I've cooked for years and didn't know about this tip. Thanks! Please ignore some of the comments, if people were aware of this method, why are they watching the video?
I usually cut skin side up. We had knives that were dull for the longest, so we couldn't cut through the skin otherwise. I'll have to try it next time, good tips.
A bit surprising and pretty new to me. I usually cut the stem, then place the pepper with the "top" facing down, and cut the sides lengthwise around the pepper until there are none left around the core. I'll have to try this method out!
I much prefer the Chef Ramsay method of cutting off the top, standing it on the top and cutting down the sides. Much quicker bc it saves the step of removing the white as a separate step and there's less waste
Do an onion next, please. I can cut them just fine, but I actually don't know how many layers to peel off first, and end up with a tougher end piece that slides and doesn't cut.
Elle, Nice clear presentation. Logical and easy. As a life long self taught cook I was hoping for more. Are there plans for tips for us cooks that have a few years of experience under our belts? What about a format that shows easy, medium and experienced levels? Something for everyone. Since the changes at ATK I've been very generous with my compliments. I like the new energy and openness in your programming. Don't slow down now! There is still much to be taught and learned. What about how to prepare stuffed peppers?
Or do the roll & "fillet" style. Either way, the ribs are removed and the cage is left, with no loose seeds to clean up. I think the video displays the worst method possible.
I think bell pepper was an easy choice but for the more uncommon fruits and veggies, I’d love to see more cutting tutorials. Also unrelated but I’d love to suggest more vegan recipes and produce storing tips!
MAGA MAN Yeah man, the world renowned chef with a shitload of Michelin stars under his belt and an empire of restaurants doesn't know how to cook. Get your head out of arse kid and focus on school, you *might* even get a small a percentage of his success in life.

Great Tip, really enjoy these videos. Any suggestion for cutting/cleaning for stuffed peppers.
That's genius! I'm going to try that for the next peppers I cook

Simple and yet a powerfull vid. Nice.
Yep! Thanks!
Loved this quick tip!
Thank you my dear.
I saw the episode on Shrimp Scampi which looked so good!
Nevertheless, thanks for the tips on chopping bell peppers. :)
We used to just rip the stem and the core out in one go with our hands, cut in half then stack and slice.
Great tip. Will do.
I got on new diet where i eat a lot of peppers, will come very handy, thank you :]
A bit surprising and pretty new to me. I usually cut the stem, then place the pepper with the "top" facing down, and cut the sides lengthwise around the pepper until there are none left around the core. I'll have to try this method out!
Good video short and on topic.
Thanks!
great tip

Good to see this.
Love the tips. thanks

great tip!
Where has this been all my cooking life.
Thanks
Fabulous..
Its great thank you
If you cut close enough to the curve on top most times you can just pop out the stem instead of cutting around it.
Perfect..
No need to chop the flesh from the top. Just push the green stalk out like a button. Pop.
I like this presenter.
For years I butchered peppers then I saw a Gordon Ramsay video and mimicked him for a few years but this is even simpler
Not a new tip for me I've been doing it that way as long as I've been cooking, but nice tip for new cook in the kitchen.
cool
The absolute VERY best way to prepare bell peppers, and this works well when chopping onions, is to get someone else to do them.
I would find it fascinating to watch how someone would otherwise slice a pepper.
Slice down straight from the top, follow the curve. Leaves just the cage and no loose seeds, removes the ribs in the same cut. So much more efficient.
Isn't this standard culinary 101? Thats the way I was taught to get the most yield.
Huge waste of time, and you can get full yield cutting down the sides or doing the roll.

Elle,

What about how to prepare stuffed peppers?
0:31 Don't slice TOWARD your hand unless you're fine with the knife going INTO your hand.
Ugh, don't start with the Buzzfeed titles please.
Next video: meaking tea?
Lol. I already cut this way without realizing it was like a pro
This is about as important as a white crayon.
More how tos please
this song sounds like a remix of reading rainbow
That is a million times easier than the way I've been doing it. lol
peppers don't grow on trees
Thanks you from always taking time to write back
Better to stand it upright and cut the sides from the start, it eliminates the last step and has all the waste in one piece.
Yes I use this method after I saw it on Barefoot Ina#s show.
Or do the roll & "fillet" style. Either way, the ribs are removed and the cage is left, with no loose seeds to clean up. I think the video displays the worst method possible.
Kudos for reducing waste.
But what I wanna know is how you're able to talk without moving your lips. Are you a psychic?!
& "Hit that subscriber button below" sounds good, nice going ATK! :-)
I think bell pepper was an easy choice but for the more uncommon fruits and veggies, I’d love to see more cutting tutorials. Also unrelated but I’d love to suggest more vegan recipes and produce storing tips!
Thank for tip enjoy video you all have a bless weekend Thumb Up
👍
Can't believe you guys don't have any stuffed pepper recipes on this channel. Makes me sad
I’ve been cutting them upside down. This entire time.
💙
Finally yahoo
But peppers do grow on a tree
And also Ramsay method is better
Maybe surprising if you've never seen or cut a bell pepper before, but otherwise standard clickbait.
pristinemirage "but otherwise standard clickbait."
Absolutely click bait to the 99.9% of those not trained to prep a bell pepper this way.
I've never cut my peppers that way until I tried their kebob recipe. So I'm more disappointed that the repeated a tutorial they showed a week ago
I'm surprised I expected to be surprised. Why did I click the bait?
Exactly.
Clickbait involves showing something other than what the video's title implies will be shown. This isn't clickbait.
This technique is for amateurs. For professional technique, use the one from Gordon Ramsay.
Not surprising and not new
To you, Plenty of people in these comments disagree, To them It WAS surprising and new. That's how knowlage works
Who sh!t in your shower, Evelyn?
This is possibly one of the most inefficient methods possible.
Gordon Ramsay's method is way faster lol
Gordon Ramsay’s tutorial was better and more entertaining.
Gordon Ramsday doesn't know how to cook real food.
MAGA MAN Yeah man, the world renowned chef with a shitload of Michelin stars under his belt and an empire of restaurants doesn't know how to cook.
Get your head out of arse kid and focus on school, you *might* even get a small a percentage of his success in life.
Wow this is insulting. Isn't this just common sense?
Too slow.
I HAVE BEEN DOING THAT FOR OVER 50 YEARS
CONGRATULATIONS SOME OF US HAVENT
*Thinks about how he's been cutting peppers*
*watches video*
OMG! My whole life is a lie!
👍
