hey brian , have you watched boiling point its a flim on Netflix. its a based on the busiest night at a new restaurant and everything is just going tits up basically, its a British flim . would love to hear your opinion because of you background as a chef and how much do you relate etc.
I'm making the first recipe tonight. The risotto balls sound great, but I'm really in the mood for the classic. Just picked up the couple things from the store that I didn't already have on hand. Can't wait to taste them! I want to also add that you're one of the only cooking channels that I actually make the recipes from, lol. Even as a former professional myself, I find myself not wanting to get into the overly complex recipes that some people post. If I'm buying an ingredient, I need to be able to confidently say that I'll use it in more than just one dish. With your channel that's never an issue. I usually have most of these items on hand.
I've been searching for a good dipping sauce forever! My local pizza joint makes one that is delicious, but they're stingy with their portions and charge an arm and a leg for an extra 2 oz container. Can't wait to try your sauce (and the cheesy fried goodness as well).
This recipe or the weeknight one from "Not Another Cooking Show" are pretty similar, tomatoes, oil, garlic, fresh or dried basil and oregano, 20 minutes on the stove and boom. Best fast sauce you will ever have. It will be a bit sharper because it wasn't Sunday sauce cooked for 2351156 hours which I actually like more. Add sugar if it's too sharp for you. Cheers!
People love fried foods, people love cheese, and when you take a big fried cheese stick that is from Wisconsin, that draws the people in. According to a report from the food delivery company Door Dash, mozzarella sticks were the most-ordered game-day food during the 2020-21 N.F.L. season, outselling even chicken wings. I love mozzarella Sticks... happy hungry! Cheers, Domenico.
funny same here in Seattle Washington! XD I work at a bar restaurant, and especially on game days, MOZZIE STICKS ARE OUR NUMBER ONE SOLD APPETIZER, almost surpassing our phillies!
@@Rubenlostit It's right off the freeway from the 4th ave S super long road and bridge, you take a left on jackson street, one block down and there it is on the right :3 address is 200 S jackson st. Enjoy. DO NOT HAVE THEIR JALAPENO POPPERS WITH THEIR BUFFALO RANCH SAUCE, YOU WILL BECOME ADDICTED! xDDDD >.< They have quite the tasty strawberry wine there. Just ask for extra strawberry syrup, and OHHHHH MAAA GAWWWWWWD, get tipsyyyy
Hey Brian! This video saved my life! No joke I tried making mozzarella sticks plenty of times for my family before and I always messed SOMETHING up until this video! They all love it and I appreciate it!
For those who want to minimize waste: 1) When breading, use regular, flat plates. With the "dry" hand, spoon over just enough flour / breadcrumbs to cover that particular piece of cheese / schnitzel / whatever as you go. Be conservative with the eggs. Any leftover egg can be mixed with breadcrumbs and salt / cheese to create small fried pancakes. 2) You can try to shallow-fry instead of deep-frying. Use just enough oil to reach half the height of whatever you fry. Stay vigilant and flip when one side is golden brown. Since half of the surface is uncovered, cooking time will probably increase by a bit.
I really love that you always use BOTH grams and pounds and celsius and fahrenheit when you do your voice overs. It makes it so much easier to understand. :) One thing if you want to step up your game is that is pretty common in european electric, digital modern ovens is for higher degrees we only have increments with five degrees. So most of the time we can never set the oven on e.g. 178 or 259 etc even if it converts to exactly that but to 180 or 260 etc. Thanks for a really great show. My most inspiring cooking channel on youtube right now.
I made these on Sunday for a neighborhood get together. They were gone in a flash and everyone said they were the best mozzarella sticks they have had. This is a keeper.
Great recipe, thanks for the video! One question: How come you double dip the sticks/balls in the panko instead of the flour? Wouldn't a double breading of flour make a tighter seal for the cheese?
There's a chain of sushi restaurants (fast food sushi) here in Canada that makes a version of these balls. They add crab and/or shrimp in the middle of the ball and drizzle the fried result with terriyaki sauce and spicy mayo. Absolutely delicious!
I've been doing similar balls for years but instead of rice I use a mashed potato/chopped bacon/minced broccoli/shredded cheddar mix as well as forming the ball around a cube of cheddar. It tastes like fried broccoli and cheddar soup. Also when I don't have panko I use a mix of crushed saltine + ritz crackers and it works just as well and might even have a better texture.
@@dragon6irl yeah I cooked it first and then let it dry out completely before mixing it in with the other ingredients. edit* im actually not sure if it's necessary though because I mince it up very fine so it retains none of its original texture. It ends up being just little green specs in the mix.
Since i do keto, i normally bake my cheese sticks. Only difference, I only batter once but I wet the sticks before the flour and pack the sticks very firmly in the panko. Comes out great every time
I'd say that refrigerating the battered sticks isn't just a convenience step, it's compulsory to help the breeding stick well during the cook. I'm definitely saving this video for the risotto balls, thwy look amazing 👏
I used this guide to make the sticks, it was my first time deep frying anything ever! I used refined coconut oil to make it a bit healthier. My first batch was pretty good! However on my second batch I mismanaged the oil temperature. I let the oil temperature fall by 30°C 😢 so the cheese leaked out. Managing the temperature with electric stove is super tricky. Hopefully I'll improve.
The way you maker arancini is almost exactly the same way we do at the restaurant I work at! Main difference is that we mostly just season it differently.
Love how real you keep it, Bri. You make me feel like I can conquer any recipe, and I've made a few already- I've yet to tackle bread/baguette but I'll get the courage sooner than later.
Brian, you have the power of both making me love you for good your content is, how fantastic your recipes actually taste, and how popular you've made me with my friends after they try out YOUR recipes when I make then. And hate you because of how hungry you make when I see your videos up. I need these mozzticks NOW!
Great and very thorough videos! They are enjoyable to watch both when you want to make the dish and when you just want to watch to get some inspiration. Keep up the good work!
So my family has cook off’s during arguments, and we have to follow random cooking guides, I got deep fried mozzarella sticks! So I knew who to choose, I followed your guide, and well, now I have a new TV! THANK YOU BRIAN!!!!
I request a video dedicated to risotto because it's delicious but I've never made it before and I'd like to. Also your videos are just great man, perfect mix of entertaining and informative while being concise.
I have viewed like a 1000 cooking vids, however the only recipes I have cooked at home were yours! I will totally try these (just thrown left over risotto into the bin...) keep it up with these nice an usable recipes
I actually do fry cheese quite a bit. I've recently started experimenting with mozzarella breaded with parmesean. (Trying to make a super low carb cheese stick. First batch was about half parm, half bread crumbs) I also dip it in a cheddar cheese sauce.
Your channel is so much fun! There look delicious. Thank you for sharing. My son and I agree that your videos instructions are easy to follow and we love your personality.❤
Thank you for all the work you do. Loving this channel more everytime I come back. The spaghetti and meatballs video you posted two weeks ago was a huge hit at home.
One thing I wish more people knew about that we have here in Wisconsin is Fried Cheese curds. Essentially, it's made much like the mozzarella sticks, but generally uses cheddar cheese curds as the base cheese. I'll have to see if this recipe works for making those at home too.
I fell in love with Chef John's mozzarella puffs, but these risotto balls look like they'll manage to edge them out as my favorite fried cheese once I get the chance to try them.
looks amazing! I just got some arborio rice, so I might make this over the weekend. And Pastaria is amazing! No disres[ect to restaurants on the Hill, but I think Pastaria is my fav Italian spot.
HAPPY EASTER!!! You just kicked me um...to the delish zone! Always ready to taste new dishes! Yummy, yum! Waving to you from south Georgia-land of best Peaches, boiled Peanuts, & Vidalia onions!
I like the way they turned out, with a little leakage. Gives it the MBH (made by hand) appeal, and is probably indicative of having used a quality cheese 😉
The reason panko is so crunchy is not because of it not being so finely ground, it's because of the cooking method used to make it. It's actually really cool and you should check it out
Any thoughts about batter fried cheese sticks? Arby's does that, and although they changed something at some point, they used to be my absolute favorites. But so far I haven't been able to make batter fried mozzarella sticks work well at home.
I don't know if it meets your criteria but one time I took mozz string cheese and wrapped them in canned pizza dough and baked them. I was too afraid to fry because I wasn't able to get a good seal. I wanted to batter fry them but the 2 times I've attempted corndogs my batter exploded and fell apart in the oil and I didn't want that happening again.
@@clashwithkeen sounds like some delicious cheese stuffed breadsticks, but not exactly cheese sticks. I've explored a little in that direction, but not very far. It's always the same difficulty keeping the cheese contained.
I've tried to make fried cheese sticks in the past and to be truthful, the art of balance between the weight of the cheese the coating and cook time have all alluded me. Brian, you have managed to break the code with a one ounce stick of cheese that gets double dipped. This tip alone is worth its weight in fried mozzarella cheese sticks! I think that fried cheese is boring without a good flavorful dipping marinara. That makes all the difference to this treat, so thank you for sharing your take on that dipping sauce. I get a flash of creativity that comes to mind about how to wrap that stick of cheese with a small, thin slice of chicken breast meat to have a hand held version of Chicken Parm!! But the idea seems more doable in my mind than my kitchen. Ha
Hey Bri! Amazing food! I am sooo hungry right now! Question: what do you do with your fry oil? How do you clean and store it? When is it time to go? Where does it go? Thanks! ✌️
Hi Brian. Great recipe... but from the northern part of Italy i've to say that the water is not used for risotto. We use vegetable stock, or if you made the milanese risotto, you can use beef stock. This is made to give a perfect balancing with the saffran. But overall... i like so much your video. Happy Easter!!
I'm lactose intolerant, unfortunately. Looks really good though! I made your Al Pastor tacos last week and they were BOMB! And I made a triple batch of the marinade and froze it so I can make more again soon. Keep sending us 🔥🔥🔥!
The way you spoon that risotto through the handle of the pot 🤣 great video once again. Your videos give me great ideas for meals and it's never pretentious like it often gets on the interwebs.
That looks good! But I cannot get those blocks of mozzarella; they just do not produce those here... (Here being The Netherlands.) What kind of cheese or mixture of cheeses should I use?
Hoi! I live in The Netherlands too and it's true that is hard to find it, but if you have a Lidl nearby sometimes you can buy that kind of mozzarella in the Italian week (that is several times per year).
@@adriaanvandoorn1263Hello again! Just to tell you that I've just bought mozzarella in block in my nearest Lidl branch. Officially the Italian products offer starts tomorrow and although it was not in the folder there it was, so ready to make some mozzarella sticks tonight! Good luck!
this resteraunt where I used to live would make bout 2x2 inch cubes i think they just tossed them in flour and they would fry them while they are super cold some of the best ive ever had

Or reuse frying oil, it does not have to be fresh, just not overuse it ;)
Yeah exactly, strain it and re use :)
Also instead of adding a whole egg on round 2 just add a lil water to the eggs as you go
That cheese pull was on a whole different level. The risotto balls look amazing!
I really love that you always use BOTH grams and pounds and celsius and fahrenheit when you do your voice overs. It makes it so much easier to understand. :)
