As much as I love the “cloche isn’t big enough for the reveal” bit in every one of these does anyone else want them to get a comedically massive cloche just one time??
especially if they later use it for a comically small product as well!
Get them a bigger cloche!
And its James Curry underneath with a normal battle for us...
I didn't even know it was called a cloche until Sorted. I'd have just called it a lid 😂.
@@forgingstrength6119 I knew the word but not the pronunciation and so never used the word.
I love the focus on Jamie's face when Mike is describing the cheesesteak and not sharing
He was literally drooling....
Same
"Half a portion" 😂 😂 😂
@@SortedFood "I'm gonna eat a cheese-steak
just stuff it in my mouth,
I think my lunch is over there,
I've started chewing air,
and dribbling on the flooooor!"
@@SortedFood any saine man would, cheesesteak is proof humanity is supposed to be happy.
Vegetable facts with Mike 101 - if you ignore celery long enough, it goes away!
😂
I thought he was ignoring the blue cheese?
@@chandrawong449 No he was definitely ignoring the celery. But Ebbers is right, the blue cheese dip will be amazing with the celery.
Believe me I’ve been trying that tactic for nearly 21 years now and unfortunately it doesn’t work 😂😂 I can ignore the portion of my plate with the weird healthy stuff for as long as I want I promise you they don’t magically disappear unless you’re a young child eating with your grandparents because they wanna give you dessert 😂 I knew early on my grandad was a legend when he’d clear my plate in minutes when mum went to the bathroom and sit there trying to convince her I’d eaten it all myself while I was elbow deep in a yoghurt 😂
Jamie doing the "I'm gonna eat a cheese steak" dance is all of us were we in that situation. Enjoy, J. Enjoy.
"I'm gonna eat a cheese-steak
just stuff it in my mouth,
I think my lunch is over there,
I've started chewing air,
and dribbling on the flooooor!"
@@dedjderaladin298 haha that's cute
Is it a reference to another Sorted video, or sth else? Thank you
“Ooh I went a bit bigger than ten inches” - another classic Bennuendo
😂🤦♂️
Never known how it's not innuBendo 😂😂
I can’t believe they all just let it go. It must have been so tempting.
@serena brown I know what party you vote for! 🤣
Note to Self: I want someone to love me the same way Ben loved the Frying Pan Pizza.
Re Jaime’s cheesesteak happy dance: I feel certain Jaime’s mum has home video of him doing those exact kung-fu dance moves when he was about 6 years old
"I cooked that for 3 minutes and it tastes amazing!"
"Because someone else did the hard work!"
Isn't that what Ben and James are for? hahaha
"I'm already hugging this one and I don't know why" I keep relating to Jamie on a spiritual level is2g
😂
Ikrr
Let's start a religion 😂✌️
@@myfriendscallmek2745 yesss seriously, lets do it :D
No longer can hug people, we hug boxes now 😂
London: "Let's do all the cool shit!"
My City: "Let's exist, I guess"
Akantia I hear you. And I apologize but its late and I was feeling passionate so what follows is a bit of a rant I typed up.
I watch this series thinking " we figured out there are over two dozen restaurants within a couple miles of the center of our town plus two bakeries, and two grocery stores one of which is small and local and used to have a buffet in it! How come none of them have picked up something like this?" Especially cause our numbers were tremendously high for months and now come down and held at 25 reported cases a day for our county for a couple weeks, most places dont have outdoor seating, only one has a drive through unless you count mcdonalds, and it could be awesome!
One place did a memorial day special with a family of five meal kit. They also had weekly quart of soup specials and every Thursday a meal you could pick up that came in a large tray for reheat that you could buy for 1-2 servings or the larger 3-4. The second they were allowed to open their patio they stopped and it makes me sad.
Some places were even getting dozens of requests for such things but ignored them. I kept checking social media feeds to see what people were doing and how businesses were adjusting and the results were depressing.
It isn't made obvious on the video (which is a shame) but these all deliver to the whole of the UK
Mike's warning to Ben: "you better get in there quick" was very endearing. It's part comedy but part genuine concern that Ebbers won't get any of the cheese steak.
(I see the Benuendo in the phrase but just moving past it for this heartfelt moment haha)
you better get in there quick because if you don't Jamie will come in like a vaccum.
@@jmp_fr always front and darned near center when it comes to tasting all foods. He's unmovable like a piece of cast iron figurine.
The pain on Jamie's face when deprived of cheesesteak
After the hectic online classes, my Wednesday is "Sorted"❤️
🙌 woohoo!
Last day of summer vacation... start teaching tomorrow and I'll be back to wishing everyday is a Sorted Sunday
The single celery leaf reminded me of a well-loved but retired cast member: the sprig of mint!
Jamie literally embodies the “🥺” emoji when Mike was explaining the philly cheese steak 😂
I like how happy Ben got making the pizza. He also seemed very pleased about seeing "you guys" once a week. Very wholesome overall.
I would love to see two normals each get a DIY food kit but you take away the instructions and labels and see who ends up closer to intended final product! Bonus points if the recipe isn’t for something straightforward like spaghetti bolognese but instead something like “Summertime Goddess Pasta Adventure”
While that would be funny, it could be rude towards the supplier, as there would be a risk of messing up the dish and therefore not highlighting the quality ingredients and a specific recipe the supplier intended. One has to keep in mind the suppliers of these kits are restaurants that have had to evolve their business plans due to pandemic reducing their sales. Could be done with store-bought DIY kits though.
Jani Andsten Honestly for this idea I was thinking more of a big name kit supplier like BlueApron, HelloFresh, ect. But store bought also works! The idea only came to me bc last week I was actually just gifted a kit from my friend with no indication of what I was actually meant to be cooking. It was a fun challenge!
@@1sgirl1 how'd it come out? Did you make the dish that was intended?
SayIDidItTM It came out pretty good! It was supposed to be a Mediterranean style bulgar bowl, and I had to look up how to cook bulgar since I’ve never done it before. But other than that it was pretty forgiving and kinda meant to have everything tossed together! So I lucked out :)
@@1sgirl1 cool! And I do like your suggestion for Sorted.
Ben getting excited about things is honestly one of the purest things in the world.
My Suggestions:
1. Mike makes Jalebis and,
2. Pass It On: Anglo-Indian Cuisine.
Jalebis is a great idea!!!
Whats anglo-indian cuisine?
Shruti Mishra It’s a colonial invention. There are dishes that were influenced by both cultures during the British Raj.
It's hilarious how Mike pushed aside the blue cheese dip as someone who repels cheese.
Ben's just butchered the pronunciation of “siu” in char siu but Jamie's correct pronunciation has made up for it, 1-0 to Jamie 😂
Ben will be so upset he pronounced it wrong., especially when Jamie got it right 😂
@@SortedFood I mean it's not like he's been to Japan or anything...
Well, Jamie knows his meat
Timestamp?
So there's Char Siu (cantonese) and Chashu (japanese and derived from the cantonese dish). Char Siu has the 'r' sound though it's softer, Chashu (which ironically looks like what this is) lacks the 'r' sound and has sort of a mix between "ch" in chair and an 's' sound.
Pretty sure, anyway.
So happy to see Ben happy about local businesses. 🌝
'Yeah tables have turned b*tches' - hahaha love ya Mikey. He was nice enough to share with you Ebbers and Jamie .. so nyeah.
Ha! I laughed so hard
As a Philadelphian, hearing these Brits that I love say Passyunk is hilarious. Also, that's probably the closest and most accurate cheesesteak they've ever made.
True
Aston and Media here. Provolone and peppers along with the onions. The cheez whiz is not right.
Chesco/Delco native here! Literally gasped to hear Passyunk! I reacted at the word "subs"
I mean, Ebbers always gives me life, but this Ebbers/Pizza pairing is simply sublime.
Love Bubbly Ben. Jamie's a man on a mission, and I wouldn't get in between him, and that Philly Cheese Steak.
11:49 I am flabbergasted with the lack of jokes when Mike was moistening the loaf. Was expecting a Bennuendo, Ebbers.
Ben being so happy about that pizza just makes me smile so much! Which is needed here lately.
I tried a food kit once and it was actually really good and a meal I would’ve never cooked if it wasn’t pre-prepped for me.
As James points out in one of the other food kit videos - one of the functions of a food kit is that it gets you cooking food you always say you're going to cook, but never do.
I don't know if I am the only one who feels this way, but I always love it when there are little "Cameos" from the crew. I know it might not be possible during Covid, but I wish we could see more of them like with the old takeaway challenges.
You can just tell how much fun Jamie is having seeing Ben geek out over pizza, and also loving how excited and happy he is. I love this so much! It kept me smiling the entire time!!
3:28
Love how they all gave Ben grief for slurping his noodles when in Japan, slurping noodles is considered flattering and polite to the chef since it indicates that you are heavily enjoying the dish.
This is exactly why he did it 😉
SORTEDfood but of course, it wouldn’t be a sorted video without Ben injecting his knowledge of foreign cultures and the rest of the crew ribbing him for it
It is a myth. Most of Japanese don't really have problem with that but it doesn't have that meaninh
Huntermad I’ve heard conflicting reports. I’d need an actual Japanese person to confirm or deny
I've also heard and seen its because partially (at least some of the time) they're in a hurry and (whether rot not they're in a hurry) those noodles are fudging hot and it's a way of cooling it as they eat to help not burn their mouths.
Ultimately, from what I hear, it's cause they're hot. In a hurry may have little or nothing to do with it and my memory is being faulty today.
This channel has gone from one of the few sources of joy in my life to being the only way I know the days of the week
The fact that I can’t get any of these delivered to the US makes me only want to visit the UK one day even more 😫👌
When COVID allows vacations, Sorted can organize a foodie trip to all of their favorites and a studio visit to watch a recording. I'm in...
Take a look at your local cities or markets, there's plenty of DIY kits out there.
I feel that as I live in the middle of nowhere MD. I can't even get take out/take away delivered lol.
I can even get ones in Melbourne to me in the Yarra Valley. It’s devastating as we have some of the best food around in Vic.
@@janmay3901 I live near Seattle.. Not that great of food honestly expect tourist trap places but most of them are shut down.. Or burnt down by all these wonderful "peaceful protesters"
Word: "Spelled S - I - U
Ben: " Sui"
At least he respects the slurp haha
I love professionalism and all the things that come with years of experience at your jobs, but nothing beats seeing you have fun and really enjoy yourselves.
😊soooooo, how about Pass it on „trifle“ sweet or savory, each three layers with minimum height in a big glass bowl ?!❤️
Now on to another great video 😉❤️ my noodles should be done when your video is over 😁
They'd probably make something akin to Rachel's trifle, haha
@@T_1.5 Yep, baz starts cooking lady fingers, james goes second and starts working on a beautiful stawberry filling, ben comes in next and makes wonderful creme, then jamie comes in and makes the beef and peas. then mike has to come in and plate the horrid thing
When can you do another ultimate battle? They are my favourite!
Soon, very soon!
Can we do anime based I would love to see some recreation foods from studio ghibli or food wars
This is possibly my favorite Sorted video. I always love coming back to it. All the dishes shown, Ramen, Pizza, Cheesesteak, are among my top favorite dishes. And these are all just absolutely amazing versions of them. I know leaving a comment two years later is pretty pointless but I just want to share.
Nobody:
Ben: DOUBLE FERMENTED DOUGH!!!
You gotta love when you notice every time that black bowl Jamie used is used
Mike’s in the thumbnail? :o
He’s back!!
Ah I missed him, he’s my favourite member.
Might I ask why he was away? I assumed it was because since restrictions were easing up and he got married in December, he wasn’t able to go on a honeymoon
He's back on camera! He hasn't been away, he's just been filming a lot of the YT videos due to us having a skeleton production crew on filming days and for social distancing reasons.
I love Mike and have missed him in the recent videos. I got so excited seeing him in the thumbnail.
"Might I ask why he was away?"
From the fact that his previous rare appearances included a massive Deftones hat, I believe it was because he was embarrassed at the state of his hair due to not being able to have it cut because of lockdown. I'm glad to see he's since found a barber to rectify matters for him 😂
Actually we are also missing James...
I think they might have filmed as many videos as possible with only a few people in the office, so we’ll see the same trios/pairs for a while
Ben: okay excitement over, couple of things I want to talk about
Also Ben: gets more excited about the double fermented dough than he does about anything else the whole video
Jamie's face during the philly cheese stake and dancing was just priceless.
I'm so happy some of these you can actually order in mainland Europe instead of just the UK
Yeah, but doesn't it then somewhat beat the point of supporting local businesses? And well, also why pay London prices if not living in London? That stuff is really expensive when you consider living standards and wages elsewhere.
@@teodora9280 depends on what you compare it with. Ignoring import and shipping costs, it would be quite fine in the Netherlands (which is more expensive)
One imported treat meal isn't the worst that could happen. Get an unhappy Philadelphia native the cheese steak box, and they will feel loved, even if they hate it. 😊
I can never get enough of these reviews! They’re the perfect source of weekly dopamine. More please!
For some reason the “if you liked this video click like, it really helps us out” makes me click like every time. The “it really helps us out” tugs at my heartstrings.
“I’m hoping if I leave it there long enough it will disappear” DEAD
If you halfway freeze the beef, you can get a better, thinner slice.
yes, stick it in the freezer for about 15 minutes.
Only £15 for that pizza kit!?! Amazing. I love Ben's enthusiasm for it. Jamie's Philly cheese steak dance is a classic! Good to see Mike back. It has been awhile. I really enjoy seeing these kit reviews! More please.
ebbers really loves his job being a chef,i luv that
Major props to that company for making authentic cheesesteaks with the Whiz instead of Provolone.
I cant remember seeing Ben as happy as he was with that pizza 😂
1:18 Usually it's Ben who corrects everyone on pronunciation, but it's his turn to be corrected this time! It's Char SIU (SHOO).
And in Japanese, for Hakata, Ganso, and all of the A vowels for everything, it rhymes with the A in parsnip or start, not splat or tack. It’s always the same A sound across the board.
Soft "h" sound (make the sound with the middle of your tongue rather than the tip) on "siu".
And it's tonkOtsu not tonkAtsu. Tonkotsu (pork bone) and tonkatsu (pork cutlet) hose are two completely different things, and he kept saying the latter.
Initially wincing at Ben's pronunciation of Char Sui but then was won over by him geeking over the double fermented dough 😂 So precious!
I’m from Australia and I went to Pizza Pilgrims last year in London because I had seen them featured on this channel! It was truly amazing!
My stomach hasn't complained this loudly for food in a very long time. All the kits look so amazingly good, that I'm almost considering moving to London.
Then I remembered my agoraphobia and the fact that I think my small town with a population of 30 000 is too big for me and I change my mind 🤣
Jamie's so valid, when I visited my fiance in London we ate at Passyunk Avenue and it was incredible. It's one of the restaurants I'll occasionally get cravings for and then get sad when I can't have it
I'm with Ben, celery is an absolute MUST with buffalo wings. It takes the edge off of the heat, and tastes great in Blue Cheese or Ranch dip. Uncooked carrots are another good choice, too! Plus they also go well with the buffalo sauce if some "accidentally" ends up on them.
Ben's happy dance at 7:55 is so cute! needs to be a GIF
I did it! giphy.com/gifs/hvGBzZjubRLXIJcxIS
My first ever gif
Ben’s “Ohhhh Jaimes” has me believing he burned his hand at first haha pleasure and pain confusion!
I watched this as I got ready for my first day at a new temp job (Covid ended my old job) and the happiness and excitement was contagious! Thanks to you guys I will walk out the door with a smile to hide my nervousness. Thanks, Sorted
I always love the entire sorted gang and Ben in Specific but OMG he outdone himself in this video he is just so sweet and lovely. This is literally me right now 😍
I like that there’s different levels of cooking. Like Jamie’s ramen is basically easy chopping and reheating, where as Ben’s pizza is more involved hand on cooking for those who want that
The best way to wake up in the morning! And I love how you call attention to restaurants in your area
There’s no way Ben went for the celery first when there was a plate with a philly steak and chicken wings 😩😭
I really appreciate sorted supporting their local food businesses!
Loving Jaime’s reaction to the cheesesteak. I adored Ben’s happy mood because of a pizza. Absolutely loved hearing Mike’s comment behind the camera and what a lovely surprise to see him in front of it. Missed you, Mike! If you can’t be in front of the camera, one or two snarky comments behind it will make me happy!
Jamie was a man on a mission. Give that man his own Philly kit!
"Its half a portion really" LOL Man after my own stomach! :P
It's so cool that you guys are supporting local businesses this way!
Love the if you’re like it “like” it reminders - because I do forget to do that - and I DO LIKE THE VIDEOS!
As someone living in Philly, never expected to see something from here included. Excellent!
I used to work for Shoryu, their stuff is good! That kit has almost everything that you'd get in the actual restaurant for that specific ramen, too. It's missing a few bits and pieces, but hey that's what the restaurant is for! Definitely worth checking out if you have one nearby.
I thought it was really impressive and I wish we had that option here in Australia but wow do you have to be rich to have any of these meal kits regularly, the Pizza kit is fairly affordable.
can i say i love the addition of mike's voice from behind the camera? it adds a lot of depth and entertainment, tbh!
Yoooo that pizza hack! Frying pan bottom, grill on top? Such a great idea.
Do an episode on home kitchen specialty tool replacements.
i got my cba2 book a couple weeks ago and i’m OBSESSED. love it so much guys well done, thank you!!
We're over the moon that you love it!
I really really like these videos, it's great to see some of these local places that are local to *you* but not to us out in the rest of the UK. We're going to buy at least 2 maybe all 3 of these and it's nice to support those businesses.
More please!
I love the love and positivity in this review.
And the futile resistance of a man trying to stop another bloke from sweeping the other sandwich, 16:50.
Top-notch! 😆
Please do more of these!! I've watched all 9 of your DIY and need more reviews :)
Surprised Ben didn't bring up trips to Japan during the first kit
We are too! Any chance to talk about his travels....
I swear “Umami” is SortedFood’s favourite and most used word! Lol
Better than "Unagi" aka Ross... 🤣
If you wanna talk about using the word umami you should watch food wars, all they talk about in every dish is this brings out the umami
Jamie, your screaming hot pan screams not only woke up my cat but freaked her out. I must have replayed it 12 times. Her eyes were huge and her ears and head were moving around looking for the strange animal. 😹😹😹
Jamie Happy dance make me smile ever time I see it, =D from the thumbnail I thought mink was cooking something with Lobster am now kicking myself for thinking Chicken wings looked like Lobster, I need to go to specsavers when this is all over lol
excited Ben got me smiling that my cheeks hurt 😂
Ahh I knew it, Mike got his post-lockdown haircut! 😉
Finally!
When Jaime was making the “screaming hot pan“ sound my cat was like WTH. She likes watching your videos btw.
Tonight we tried the Pizza Pilgrims kit for the first time ever. I had a few small issues with the pizza dough (it was a bit smaller than Ben was able to stretch the dough out to, due to me being slightly panicked) but my god it was absolutely delicious.
Ben and James should have a competition where they make DIY kits for two normals. Normals shouldn't get instructions, just the kit that the chefs made.
I've always wanted to support local, and while I love this big city I'm in, the Canadian Economy just isn't friendly to really good small restaurants. Having come from that world, always crunching the numbers, someday hoping to open my own, there's one way and one way only to operate a restaurant out here and it's with a hope and a prayer.
To accomplish that and be successful most chefs and restauranteurs water down their food, make it more broadly appealing by, usually, removing all character from it. I'm sorry to say, but every time I go to a restaurant with somebody here, I just think "My God, I'm paying $30 a plate for something I could get better done at a chain like Quesada, A&W, Panda Express," so those chains are where I choose to put my money. The interesting thing I've found too is, that this problem only exists in this province, which is one of the three that has an economy with an upward trajectory. I almost wonder if because in Montreal, in Toronto, especially in PEI, because the economy has been flat for decades they just throw caution to the wind and make the food they want to make, rather than trying to catch an economic wave by watering it down.
Maybe it’s because human contact is yknow a hot commodity now but this episode exudes super happy energy and I’m here for it
Not from UK or even London, but LOVE this concept from the restaurants. Would be amazing to see this trend spread to my own local restaurants.
Passyunk is pronounced "pash-unk" in Philly. Nothing in Philly is pronounced how you think it will be lol
Source: Philly native
Represent
It needed bell peppers and provolone right?
I was wondering when someone else was going to catch that!
It's a bit closer to "pasih-unk". Also NO to peppers but yes to provolone and chicken...
Who knew wiz could be artisinal? I'm a bit of a purist so no bell peppers for me.
I missed Mike's snark.
Yay Mike gets one finally! I think the last few ones he has been behind the camera. Yay for Michael!
I genuinely enjoy watching you boys get excited and happy with these DIY Food Kits. Aside from making us hungry because all 3 dishes are so appetizing, you also encourage a fun way for us to support our local restaurants. My only concern is the consumption of single-use plastics, and so recycling/re-using them must be emphasized in their packaging, and consumers do their part in keeping our surroundings clean while satisfying their cravings.
14:03 If I may for everyone else ordering this, *add the cheese sauce to the beef once it's off the heat and mix through* before putting in the roll. You'll thank me.
"sous-vided" - a transitive verb!
I love mikes little comments behind the camera. Best!
I'm from/live in Philly and I appreciate your love of our foods. We feel pretty lucky to be able to walk just a few blocks to get a cheese steak anywhere in the city.
