The cut to Trevor after Josh asks if the dough is supposed to be like pancakes and Trevor says you massively screwed up if it's like pancakes is perfect.
@@NoThankUBeQuiet I feel like they’re filmed before. And that it’s just a common mistake ppl make. If it was filmed after, I feel like he might’ve laughed while saying it. And there would have been way more jokes and shade to be thrown.
I just watched another video where someone said they liked the format of everyone cooking together and bantering instead of separate. And I also thought that reminded me of the Try Guys. This format though is way more reminiscent. Though I’m not familiar with how other creators do it, either. So idk if it’s just common
Lily as a test proctor is terrifying. Keeping you on your toes by sprinkling in random nonsense ("Yes chef!" "That's chef to you"), but still absolutely knowing her stuff.
Her knife skills are sketch, the way she wields the chef knife, swiping it through the potato instead of rocking back and forth, would lead to carpal tunnel in a month in a real working kitchen.
@@stephennetuyeah, I know he bakes a lot but they don’t show it. They just say, “Trevor made this [insert pastry/bread here]” and I wish they’d show him making it. Plus that would make videos longer which I would love.
Seeing the crew actually showing off their legitimate skills without flubbing everything to be funny was actually pretty cool. They have a lot of skill and precision that they don't usually let shine like that.
as someone who did the pastry side of culinary school, josh's cream puffs are pretty in line with what we saw coming out of the savory side of the class
I can do both if I put in effort, but I never did seem to quite excel either way. Looking back on it, I was... adequate. Nothing to complain about, but nothing to write home about either. Every once in awhile, I did put something really solid out there, but my classmates could kick my ass up and down in the kitchen. I went when I was older and didn't work in the industry, so I was in classes with people who already had restaurant experience. It was eye opening in a way. Prior to culinary school, I'd spent 17 years in call centers, mostly tech related. During team potlucks, I'd put real effort into the food I was bringing, and I was repeatedly asked by my co-workers why I wasn't a chef. So when time came, I was your better than average home cook now pitted against people who already knew what they were doing. I did fantasic when it came to the academic side of things because my brain is wired that way. Culinary math, yields, recipe conversions, menu planning, food safety and sanitation, no problem at all. Practical use was another matter. I don't regret it though. I learned a hell of a lot. I just ran into a time/money issue and didn't get to finish my baking classes, so I'm a few credit hours short of finishing my culinary degree. Maybe someday.
in josh's defense on the cream puffs. he's said in the past he's not a baker and we know his personality by now to know he doesn't have the patience for baking. he's definitely got the heart and talent even if he never really learned the technical skill. with some prep, genuine effort, and not being goofy, I have no doubt he would pass
@@pissum420Yeah but I had a guy in my class who was just like Josh, the second we were in pastry class he just was NOT interested in it at all and it was a light switched off in his head. Meanwhile he was a great student in all the other classes. Still passed but just put in no effort, didn't retain anything..So I get what OP is saying.
Well also culinary school is just dumb, and like the teacher said they want them to do things "perfect, by the book", when cooking is more about flavor expression and experimentation. Josh already wins because he's a great chef and didn't have to waste money getting a culinary arts degree lol
@@TheOnlyGhxst Again, argue that both are valid. But in culinary school they are teaching you methods for fine dining...to work at places that may have or have the potential to have awards. And part of this is perfectly uniform knife cuts, clear soups and broths etc. Now I agree, after school I went the other way and focused on building up flavors, expression and experimentation. Which arguably makes tastier food.
this is honestly why I love Josh so much he's the everyman chef, impatient, and doesn't always use the proper techniques but makes some great tasting food
the best type of chef, go get blasted with him then when getting back to the crib he asks "you hungry?" then proceeds to make a masterpiece with the shambles that was your pantry
Forreal the only time she's been tolerable in the recent past. The always-on-ness from most of the crew has become annoying, but she might be the worst offender.
All bits aside, submitting yourself to be judged by someone as amazing as Alan Kang is terrifying. Not to mention Lily who's even scarier. Props to Josh and kudos to the team.
In the introduction to one of Gordon Ramsay's cookbooks, it says being a good cook requires confidence more than anything else. Josh has that in spades!
I LOVE this- it’s always great when they showcase Lily, Nicole, Trevor, (and V!)’s talent and technical skills. This video is a testament to the validity of different forms of learning- yes culinary school teaches important technical skills, but it’s not a requirement to make good food.
I feel like a really under appreciated skill in the kitchen, or anywhere really, is to hire really good people. There’s where Josh really shines. He doesn’ have to be able to do everything by himself, because he knows how to hire the people who do. And he knows how to keep them motivated to stay on!
Josh's pasty cream being "pretty good" considering he just dumped the egg mix into the milk is awesome since there is so much pressure to not scramble the eggs yet, "just go for it" also worked.
i was very disappointed that Josh decided to just make a joke out of the whole thing rather than actually try. He even joked about defending his ego in the video "if i reject something before it rejects me im safe" -- as he is actively doing that thing by joking through the whole thing.
@@dakineprotoss yes, but its honest. Like, Josh is a fairly (outwardly) confident person, and he succeeds at things much more often than he fails (on camera at least) but I am sure that for a minute there, he was in full panic mode, and not just for the purpose of a bit. He went into his comedy act as a coping mechanism.
Trevor: "This is very temperature sensitive" Josh: *regularly lights things on fire, turns the heat to high, literally just exploded Canadian bacon in the microwave*: "This is fine"
The fact is Josh isn’t the serious chef kind he’s a guy with way too much talent in cooking and he loves to cook for fun and that’s why we all love him he makes cooking look fun and his energy is perfect. And I love the fact that when the judge said “I think with enough help around you.” The helpers came in xD
This kind of precision is only really here because of the kitchen brigade system. When you are cooking at home or alone, you do not have time to work to this standard. You are doing too many things at once. But in a brigade, everyone gets to focus on doing a few things VERY well. Also, waste is less of a problem in these setups because all of your veggie scraps and bones are going straight into the stockpot for tomorrow, all your fish off cuts are minced up for fish cakes for family meal, and the fruit waste can be juiced, made into jams, or integrated into dessert sauces. All of this would be much harder in home or solo cooking just based on quantity and available workforce.
College is collecting the most and best knowledge into 1 location and then providing to students. What Josh has done is searched for his knowledge on his own. It's not saying that his route is better than college but he did what he would in class...focusing primarily on what he wanted for his career. College adds a lot of forced electives and 1 yr classes that is general knowledge (what SHOULD have been covered in high school), so effectively saving money and focusing time on specifics.
It was beautiful seeing Nicole, lili, and Trevor serious and composed in their element. Josh (or whoever's idea this was) really shined the light on them.
the bit where Josh' dough looked like pancake batter and it cut to Trevor saying that if your dough looks like batter you screwed up gave me without a recipe vibes so much it made me lose it laughing
Absolutely love the chaos in chef josh's cooking 😂😂❤ i like to think he cooks like this off camera too, just seems like a fun chaotic free spirit and im here for it. Also love how he has the whole "not doing the proper way but getting the right answer" (except the baking)
Whenever I make a hollandaise I cool the clarified butter to room temp so that it melts into the sauce, it definitely takes longer but I've never had it break or scramble
I feel like I was watching Josh do a technical in The Great British Baking Show. I would love to see Trevor do the same. Give him ingredients and tell him what the outcome is. Good luck!
I think one of my fav moments from this video is when Chef Alan Kang handed Josh one of the diced Onion pieces that was irregular to look at and he quite literally eats his mistake.
I think it would be incredible to have Josh actually go to culinary school and do a series - honestly, I think he would have so much fun and gain an even heightened sense of confidence. I don't think he needs it, but I think it would be incredibly enriching for him and would make really awesome content.
What Josh might lack in the technical skills, he would make up for the sheer balls he has to come up with the most interesting ways to use ingredients and I say that accounts for something.
It looks like Josh was lucky to get a job that allowed his combination of talents to shine. This isn’t to say his chef skills aren’t good, but he has strengths in other areas too that make him more suited to a job in which he has an audience.
Fun fact, the knife skills test at the start of that usually comes with a little metal chart that gives you an idea of how to cut each type of cut is supposed to look like during your first week at Culinary School.
6:52 me when mincing garlic But for reals, I look up to Josh so much. But seeing him like this as compared to me, who actually went to Culinary School, I'm starting to think: "Holy hell..."
I dunno whether it would add insult to injury, but I think it'd be funny to see the culinary school-trained versions of each dish next to his to see how well they did in comparison
What a wonderful segment! I’m so glad that the Mythical Kitchen has Josh- the face of MK- giving so much credit to his fellow coworkers- because we know they save his ass on the daily!!
Thanks for giving us the video we’ve been asking for! Promos for the cookbook have been top notch👏🏽 Everyone has been so wonderful and dedicated, but Josh you are doing amazing sweetie!!! ⭐️ The hollandaise and cream puffs simply do not exist 😊

In the introduction to one of Gordon Ramsay's cookbooks, it says being a good cook requires confidence more than anything else. Josh has that in spades!

Josh absolutely failing at the baking portion of this shows the talent and smarts of Trevor
Trevor also previously worked at a pretty well-known pastry place if I remember correctly
My SAHM made choux pastry so easily. It's actually not hard. I did a Baking and Pastry Arts degree but I could make it as a child.
@@chaosic08 He worked for the guy who invented the cronut if I remember properly from previous episodes!
There's a reason culinary and pastry are two separate branches in culinary school!
Cooking is an art, baking is a science. Baking is SO HARD to get right. I envy people who can bake anything well.
I love the cuts from the professionals saying what not to do, to Josh doing exactly that
Very Without A Recipe
As someone who went to culinary school, this is both satisfying and so frustrating all at once
Trevor: "This is very temperature sensitive"
Josh: *regularly lights things on fire, turns the heat to high, literally just exploded Canadian bacon in the microwave*: "This is fine"

Lilly's knifework was so satisfying to look at. Weirdly magical
"Slow and steady wins the race"

Aannnddddd its broken!
" If I reject something before it rejects me... then that keeps me safe" Preach Josh.
Mythical Kitchen has just been absolutely killing it. I'm so glad Mythical invested in this project.
"I'm in fight or flight" cut to trevor being serene was, dare I say, chefs kiss

You save the waste bits to make stock or broth, so nothing is ever truly wasted.
@@shadypalmtree2989 in a perfect world yes. But in the actual world there's tons of waste by only doing things perfectly.

The stark contrast between Josh's chaos and Trevor's calmness is sending me
Comparing and contrasting Trevor in his happy peaceful place baking to Josh's chaos demon panic mode is just *muah*

Gonna need a behind the scenes video to this of the real time reactions of Nicole, Lily, and Trevor while Josh is working.
Consistency is the key to being a good chef, and Josh is consistently screwing up. Thus, Josh is technically a good chef.
This video has told me nothing I didn't already know. Josh is a valuable member of the team. And we all know the roll he plays.
Chef Kang was my chef instructor during my time at ICE. A awesome chef and the best instructor. Cheers!
I love that Marcel, one of the craziest Top Chef alumni, was an inspiration for Josh.
It was beautiful seeing Nicole, lili, and Trevor serious and composed in their element. Josh (or whoever's idea this was) really shined the light on them.
The sassy, skeptical look that the instructor gave Josh when he said "Perfect profiteroles" at 28:16 is everything 😂
the bit where Josh' dough looked like pancake batter and it cut to Trevor saying that if your dough looks like batter you screwed up gave me without a recipe vibes so much it made me lose it laughing
“If I reject something before it rejects me it keeps me safe”
Josh speaking for all us messed up folks right there
Nicole is so deliberate contrasted with Josh’s frenetic “sink water”
Strong Without a Recipe vibes where they explain what to do or not do and immediately cut to Josh doing the what not to do thing.
Josh will always be my favorite chef even if he isn't a chef
Absolutely love the chaos in chef josh's cooking 😂😂❤ i like to think he cooks like this off camera too, just seems like a fun chaotic free spirit and im here for it. Also love how he has the whole "not doing the proper way but getting the right answer" (except the baking)
Josh made it onto the Tonight Show!!!! I'm so proud of him! Keep up the good work Josh!!!
Josh is a real chef in the same way that Bill Nye is a real science guy and everybody loves Bill Nye
I'm in love with "They don't give you stYLe PoINtS in culinary school but they SHoUlD!"
"Thems is ham coins, chef!"
I trust this man with food.
Whenever I make a hollandaise I cool the clarified butter to room temp so that it melts into the sauce, it definitely takes longer but I've never had it break or scramble

What Josh might lack in the technical skills, he would make up for the sheer balls he has to come up with the most interesting ways to use ingredients and I say that accounts for something.
More of this! I love learning and also enjoy watching Josh frantically keep up 😂
"My ham coins exploded" - out of context I cannot imagine another profession where... huh... maybe urologist?
Josh trying to figure out the choux was really funny and i bet Trevor really wanted to jump in and just do it
It looks like Josh was lucky to get a job that allowed his combination of talents to shine. This isn’t to say his chef skills aren’t good, but he has strengths in other areas too that make him more suited to a job in which he has an audience.
All purpose potatoes are very elusive, and hard to catch 😂😂😂😂
i desperately wish we had a face cam on nicole or trevor during those sections watching josh pull the first poached egg out made me wanna cry
"My ham coins exploded." 😂🤣😂🤣
When Josh puts the bowl on the ham coins tho. "Warm my ham coins with the bowl". This killed me.
Fun fact, the knife skills test at the start of that usually comes with a little metal chart that gives you an idea of how to cut each type of cut is supposed to look like during your first week at Culinary School.
josh has never claimed to be a pastry chef. in fact he always claims the opposite.
I love how throughout the video Josh explains how you’re probably meant to do things, and then proceeds to do them completely differently.
Josh absolutely snapped on this one. Sick with it.
19:50 Josh talking to himself "temper the milk into the egg yolks , dO iT gEntLy jOSh" is giving strong Bruce McClane energy 😂
The chef is generous in his scoring hahaha
i love all those moments of them saying exacty what not to do to and then the cut to josh doing that exact thing 😂😂
I love how they actually had a professor judge him, and the professor was just so chill ❤
This is an awesome episode! Some flashbacks (PTSD) to my line cooking days but it was fun!
Also Lily...damn perfection with the knife cuts ❤
the editing is top notch on this video kudos to whoever did it. the contrast btwn josh being a freak and everyone else being super calm was so funny
Can we just appreciate the fact that Josh just straight up didn't temper the egg mix whatsoever and it turned out perfectly fine?
*everyone else going about things as normal*
16:01 Trevor: “wHy HeEwLoH tHeIr mAgGot” 😂
Josh definitely went for entertainment instead of trying to do anything right and it was worth it
28:51 In what grading system is 64% a B? That's a low D at most
6:52 me when mincing garlic
But for reals, I look up to Josh so much. But seeing him like this as compared to me, who actually went to Culinary School, I'm starting to think: "Holy hell..."

I love how Alan is encouraging while he's critiquing. Lol
