    This is probably the best video of these series so far. King was the Chef that just happened to have the video where I commented that enough was enough, they've got to stop substituting the ingredients in the home cook's recipe with the things that they prefer to use but not everyone will have.
    In this video, King makes additions to Emily's recipe without adding a single thing but rather repurposing parts of ingredients that he already has on hand, like the pickle juice and pork fat. Sure he added things, but it was with things the home cook had already him with and a little technique on top.
    I was always curious about re-using the brine from a jar of pickles for a quick pickle when I'm feeling lazy but never actually tried it. I'm happy to see it does work just fine.

    Emily, If you fear the knife too much for smashing Garlic, you can use a flat spatula. Though it should be metal. Plastic tends to either be too bendy to give good squish, or too brittle and risk snapping/shattering. If your meat tenderizer has flat sides on it's head that will work too. Just don't 'Hulk Smash!' and splatter garlic goo all over the kitchen.

    "Bánh Mì" is essential a sandwich, you can make it the most common way people want or you could make it as creative as possible, because the word "Bánh Mì" literally mean bread, stuff it with whatever you like, sausage, omelette, grilled pork meat, whatever you have on hand.

    Actually in Vietnam, we usually don't make Banh Mi that fancy. Chef King Phojanakong is right about the baguette and pate, that is the most simple kind of Banh Mi you can find in our country. More than that, we have Banh Mi Pate Trung, which is a baguette that has pate and an omelette in it, then we enhance the flavor with cilantro, etc... Or some "fancier" Banh Mi like Banh Mi Charsiu, is a baguette with herbs and pieces of roasted pork belly.

    I think why I love this series so much is because it gives the pro chef the ability to show how good skills can elevate a recipe, and it gives more casual chefs the opportunity to learn those skills with premium ingredients to cultivate their skills. at the end of the day, they both make incredibly delicious food, so it's great. ❤
