This is the BEST “but cheaper” I’ve watched. Your efforts in adding the cost breakdowns are so beneficial, and the recipes are accessible. I LOVE IT
Listening to the monologue is "teeth-grindingly" irritating, with its rapid-fire delivery.
The Japanese commercial that follows , is even WORSE!
Then don't @@kendallwalls6695
@@kendallwalls6695blud then stop watching😂
I agree entirely. For how much extra work it would take to break them down one by one like this it is a truly impressive dedication to quality content. Its very much appreciated and makes it so much easier and faster to decide what could be a viable option as a meal I'd actually get to make. Great job Josh. I hope more are to come like this.

Love the cost breakdown! Keep that in the format!
You’re a real one 🫡

👍🏻
no clue why joshua himself doesnt just use the chapters feature on youtube, videos like this couldnt be more perfect for it. thanks for doing his work for him!
Tip for protein: Chicken thighs would go great with a lot of this stuff. Theyre cheap and dead easy to cook; in fact, overcooking then makes them more tender because the collagen in the dark meat starts to break down! And you get in your protein so you stay full!
Strangely enough, in my country boneless skinless chicken breast is cheaper than boneless skinless thighs. Like, up to 50% cheaper.
Chicken thighs are going up in price now that people aren't sleeping on them anymore
@alexburgdorf419 for real, back when I actually went grocery shopping a lot (I work at a food bank, so a lot of free food) I'd get meat at a meat market and thighs were 1.39/lb and breast was 1.59/lb. Last time I saw, their prices were 2.50/lb for breast and almost 4 for thighs
@@Flarizel boneless, skinless chicken breast should be the cheapest meat.
Even if you manage to cook it on spot it's about as exciting as unseasoned tofu. And it's actually rare to catch that sweet spot between salmonella nursery and compacted dust.
@@inkenhafner7187 I'm a very picky eater, who dislikes any sort of connective tissue in my meat. So I'm more of a breast guy. But for ground chicken I go thighs only.
This! This right here is what most people need. Recipes that provide the ingredients you need with the actual cost. Yes, it can vary but I hate recipes that say its a cheap dish at only $1.49 a serving, but you have to spend $50 in ingredients. Providing the actual cost is so important. I took screenshots to make some of these knowing how affordable they actually can be. Thanks for this!
@SteveSherman-ij5gm It's more that you're buying these staples often in bulk rather than that they are overall cheap. Like for example a jar or can of something might last a while but that doesn't mean it's not expensive in some areas.
@SteveSherman-ij5gm Bruh I'm from the US, I actually passed high school with honors unlike you, and I'm currently dealing with being on food stamps. Often even cheap shit like canned beans is $3+ here and a bag of rice enough to last the month is $20+
It's called living in a fucking food desert, asshat.
For someone who lives in Norway, these price breakdowns are hilariously optimistic.
What would the price breakdown look for y’all? Do you have to special order anything?
I know in my head I double or tripled it.
Canadian here.
The butter price is off by a dollar. Same with the noodles.
Also Canadian. Add at least a dollar to everything.. Overall cost per serving would be about 50% more.
@@Stoudy2ayyyy I’m Canadian tooo
Good morning Mr Weissman. Just a quick FYI, Thai "Holy" basil grows like a weed in Texas, sometimes a random HEB will get a few trays of baby plants. Once you grow them you will probably always have Holy basil, and it's pretty in the summer and smells good, like cheap teen perfume for your garden.
Holy basil is a fantastic mood stabilizer too
Basil is so easy to grow! So fun!
I love your vibe
HEB Pog
On my way to heb right now
The reason bean sprouts work in chow mein is your brain perceives them as crunchy noodles because they blend together so well. It's a great way to make chow mein more healthy. I say this as someone who also doesn't usually like them.
in fried rice too!!
I love the price breakdowns. Thank you for thinking of people who need to buy the ingredients to try the recipes they want to love
I loved that too!!! And I appreciate how informative he was with how the price can differ in certain aspects
I agree ♥️ it makes making any of these way more accessible
I love too🤌
She's right. All the "but cheaper" videos of the past were only for the part of the ingredients used. This is far more realistic and I enjoy it more for that reason.
Note in my comment 'above' I suggest a half.his.price amazon bonito flakes: 40% larger than the amazon best seller and $1 more at $13.90,
Thank god he’s using this format with actual recipes and not just “18 ways to make Shepard’s pie”
or the "how to make dinner for a week for $5!" and its just $300 worth of ingredients divided by meals for the week lmao
@@Lagaholic “so this step is completely optional but I’m putting on some caviar” “so I spent 80 hours in the rainforest tracking down and making this special paste that you can’t buy anywhere on the internet and this will be the main ingredient in our dish”
@@Lagaholic thats how cooking usually works, when do you not buy food for the week?
@@matthewplunkett7720 That's not what he does though... it's usually just $300 worth of steak divided by meals for the week.
So it's not really a "$5 meal"
I feel ya, dude, glad to see something like this, feels like it's been ages
If you like buttered noodles, you should try brown buttered noodles. It's a PA Dutch/amishy dish where you cook the butter to where it starts to get brown, so the milk solids caramelize then add noodles, usually egg noodles but you can use whatever you want. Other variations around here include adding, sausage, keilbasa, cabbage to the noodles but don't overdo it.
100% agree. If you brown the butter before adding the other ingredients it takes it to a whole new level with minimal effort.
That sounds delicious!
@SteveSherman-ij5gmno they're not, Spätzle are different. That's like saying penne and spaghetti are the same... Shape does a lot to pasta also Spätzle are more chewy and doughy than you classic egg noodles. But I have to say, that dish would also of course work with them and probably be better (in my opinion for those simple things where the noodle is more the star, Spätzle are better)
FINALLY a full cost breakdown of the food. This should have been a thing for years at this point. Keep doing full cost breakdowns.
i've made quite a few of the recipes from your cookbook, and i love every single one. I have also learnt a lot about texture from it and it inspired me to do my own research into texture. Thank you.
I am sure the cost breakdowns ate a lot more effort but for these types of videos I greatly appreciate them. Loved this video!
People always thought I was weird for how much butter I had on my noodles and knowing that theres such thing as "butter noodles" makes me so happy
I absolutely *love* this breakdown method of both how much it is to buy the ingredients and how much per portion. For someone like me that doesn't have much on hand most of the time it's incredibly helpful. Thank you for including it!
My Mom loved pasta and would serve us Buttered Noodles when we were sick. She has since passed away and whenever I make buttered noodles it is like getting a nice warm hug from Mom.
That is probably the most american thing i have ever read
The person who measured out & did the cost breakdown for everything deserves a raise
As a Korean, I'm loving all the Korean dishes you're cooking/eating/enjoying! Thanks
The editing is becoming unbearable a bit. Its basically a 22 minute tik tok just comes off annoying, at least to me.
Not to mention the condescending remarks
. The condescending tone is intentional. His smart ass attitude is part of the charm
@@sulphuuurthen stop watching
@@zachgouldrup7962if you dont like his opinion then stop commenting
@@AllMyGabensthat’s the point of commenting
The genius of this format is in how it also creates 8 perfectly sized shorts to probably more than double revenue.
Horrible to view at once though
The total cost breakdowns are much appreciated! The extra info makes me consider trying these even more!
On the buttered noodles, you can step it up a touch by seasoning the water with chicken bouillon
Full price breakdowns have been a refreshing addition. I live in Denver, which isn't crazy expensive relative to some places, but those prices sound amazing. The cost would be at least double.
Thank you so much for including the full price breakdown! It does help immensely, especially in budgeting.
As someone who is getting comfortable with cooking, really appreciate the very simple meals being made and different options Josh thank you
Thank you so much for entertaining, encouraging, and educating! My 7&9 year old love your quippy videos and have made it a nightly routine to watch a “Joshua Weissman” before heading off to sleep! Thanks again for everything you do.
I’ve always enjoyed your videos! As an Asian person watching a non Asian person make Asian food; I appreciate how much care you put into Asian dishes and how you do your best to make it traditionally! Cultural appreciation fssss
ok maybe not “traditionally” but u can definitely tell u did research lmao
Literally food for thought. Gets me thinking a lot more creatively. Thanks!
appreciate your videos, this one is excellent for quick dishes on a budget
I absolutely love watching you cook and this video is just as awesome as everything else you do.
I recently had a bug up my arse to find tutorials on how to make better Fast Food at home...
low-and-behold, I found you almost instantly.
You are my hero, and it's time to binge-watch every video you've ever made.
See ya in a month!
So this is extremely helpful to me and i'm sure many others. Having the cost of 'should you need to buy everything' to make this is an amazing breakdown. Seeing some recipe on youtube is great if it's labeled as cheap, but if you don't have any of those ingredients you're still gonna spend money buying them. Most people's pantry game is weak, and this could absolutely help to build your pantry and utilize long unused condiments/sauces. Thanks!
I love your videos when you teach us to cook. I’m so happy to see you going back to cooking. You are amazing!
Love you and your team Josh appreciate all the hard work you and your team put in to all the videos!
I'm not a pro nor am I a chef but something I learned when I worked part time in a wok kitchen was that when you are stirring with the spatula, use the corner of it only to prevent the noodles from breaking/cutting. Just something I felt like sharing as I thought it was some good advices I received.
I REALLY enjoyed the breakdowns here!!! Thank you for your efforts.
Thanks for creating these budget dishes. It allows those who normally wouldn't attempt more 'exotic' dishes to elevate their cuisine without fear of busting the budget.
Keep killing it Josh!! You put out so much fantastic content. You just dont miss. This is an insanely valuable video.
I love that so many of these recipes share the same ingredients, so you can cook all of them for WAY less than the "for everything" cost if you reuse the oils and sauces.
Oh I'm drooling...yum. We have buttered pasta once a week. I love these recipes. I was introduced to pastina when I was around 7 and my family visited my mother's best friend in NY. She was Italian. Her mother, Mama Gori, made pastina for us. I loved it and love it still.
Love your work! You're amazing 🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤
❤ japchae! It was the first thing I ate when I lived in Korea. Add some thinly sliced beef to make it a main
The yaki udon is legit my favorite recipe from this channel. Its so good and so simple to cook with plenty for leftovers if your into that.
Thanks Joshua you have opened my mind to many different noodles, that I will try.
Finally, someone who does the 'total cost'. Thank you!
@SteveSherman-ij5gm Price per serving costings also vary wildly by location and time. I find total cost to be the less misleading of the two when it comes to home cooking (obviously it's going to be different in professional kitchens). As a home cook, there's nothing more frustrating than, for example, videos that draw you in with click bait headlines touting $1 meals that turn out to only be $1 if you buy ingredients in bulk and cook enough portions for 9 people. I have to work back from the 'price per serving' to the 'total cost in my area', work out how many portions those total ingredients will make, factor in whether the extra ingredients/meals can be frozen/are shelf stable/or are just wasted, then go back and figure out what it will actually cost me per serving, including all the wastage.
Two others have commented on this, but I’ve gotta agree, the popping sounds are kinda distracting because they’re so frequent.
Love the videos content tho ♥️
I’m more of a noodle/pasta guy than rice/ other starchy grains so I really appreciate this!!!! Definitely making all of these!
I love the idea of this video, budget meals. We need that these days. Thanks Josh!
The breakdown of prices is so helpful. Thank you for considering those who need to budget for the ingredients to try out these amazing recipes! 🙏🏽💰
Thanks for promoting cheaper food, lots of people struggling with finance atm
Really appreciate the cost breakdowns of this video. One of my main criticisms of your previous 'but better' videos was the "x$ per serving" with no real indicator of the overall "I have none of this on hand" price tag
As a Vietnamese, I am thrilled to learn about a new style of "Vietnamese noodle" that I have never seen before.
Anyhow, looks good
buttered noodles with spaghetti? We always used spiral egg noodles. more sauce per noodle
Only $3 for butter?! Dang...here in my part of Canada I am looking at $7, and that is just for the Walmart Great Value brand 😕
Some of the best cost saving tips are to get fish sauce, oyster sauce, spices and such in bulk, since you'll use them almost everywhere.
It's a bigger up front cost, but most of the dry spices and sauces have a stupid long shelf life, so unless you spill them there shouldn't really be much if any waste in the long run.
Save the whites+roots of your green onions as well, they'll legitimately grow for a while in your kitchen with just a glass of fresh water to sit in; if you plant them in a small pot with some medium you can easily turn a couple dozen green onions into a near unlimited supply (properly cared for, some of them grow an inch or more [25mm+] per day).
I just made the ramen at the end with some Shen ramen I had sitting around. I didn't have the same chili, so I just used red pepper flake. That was some of the best noodles I have ever eaten in my life bro what the actual F. You are an innovator good sir, and your team are all scholars.
At last after 9999999 years i can watch you again papa
This video so complete it needs to be downloaded into a hard drive and kept safe for the next generation of living beings
This video is simply amazing! I loved seeing the creativity at work in creating the cheapest pasta dish ever in 8 different ways. The way you found economical ways to prepare delicious meals is inspiring. I'm sure these recipes will be a lifesaver for many people. Congratulations on your culinary genius! 😋😋😋❤❤❤
Thank you for the price breakdown. It was one of the things I was hoping for since watching your but cheaper series and wondering how you came to those prices. Thank you!
Papa’s noodle is the best noodle
In which world os 50 g pasta a serving? 😂
Pasta for the rats in your walls!
Loving these price breakdowns. It looks like a lot more work, but it's helpful so thanks for doing that.
One of my favourite is extremely simple: whatever noodle you have, simply toss them in a sauce mixed of sesame oil, sesame paste, peanut butter and sweet soy sauce, garnish with whatever you have. Absolutely amazing to make in the morning, as it only takes like 8 min to make
Honestly prices being what they are, we are probably at a point where it is cheaper to make fast food at home than it is to order / get at a drive-thru.
its always been cheaper to EAT AT HOME
Yo Josh, my 13yo lad asks you drop vids about four hours earlier, so he can see them as a hot minute.
Thanks, keep being amazing
If you had a second channel devoted to this, you would change the world Mr Weissman my friend. Exactly how a good chef works and how people should cook day to day.
I gotta say, I really appreciate the attention Josh and his team seem to take with the comments. I know on previous videos people tend to not like how the “price per serving” is created. I love that the team gave all the possible costs, because I think it really helps us gauge the actual price.
I miss the old form content
*cries in having a horrible barely-working electric stove that one could never use a wok on*
I miss gas.
you can totally make it in a pan or skillet, you just wont get wok hey
@@SophiaLilithUwUyou won’t really get wok hei with a normal gas top anyway. You need many more BTUs that most can produce. An electric top and a blow torch can produce similar wok wei to an extent, I’m pretty sure Kenji has covered it before.
Really appreciate the three way breakdown of the price. Helps a lot 😊
I really appreciate the full cost breakdown. Way too often i see recipies they say 'feed a family for under $10' but when you buy all the ingredients the meal costs $50
Joshua with another banger!!!!!!
Need more of this. Im poor af and i feel thats a growing trend lol. Literally living off baked potatoes half the time like the martian 🤣😭
I learn a lot from you Josh. Appreciate your efforts.
This shows why pasta and noodles in general are loved all around the globe,you can have a decent plate of noodles without spending much,
THANK YOU for actually adding the total cost to buy everything!
Makes me want to try some of the recipes out now!
225 grams of pasta is not even enough for 3 people... The amount of pasta for a person that is on a diet is 80 grams... 😒
Kinda have to agree, unless you're slapping in a lot of cheese, meat or bacon in there, anything under 100g is too little
Then spend a little more. Noodles are cheap AF. Adults find solutions, not criticism. Stupid hapless children, only point out problems.
Imagine an adult who can't fathom to increase the portion. Noodles are cheap. Typical man child, cannot solve their own criticism .😂
That’s a portion
100 grams of spaghetti with just a little tomato sauce mixed with it is a portion. If you start to add things to it then you're gonna have less pasta per portion. So yeah idk what kinda portions 225g is. Unless it has a bunch of stuff with it
Edit: tbf the first dish is using butter, that's a lot of calories right there
Love this video and appreciate how you broke down the costs!
pls change the popping sound at the start of ur videos when text appears
or at least add some variation the sound gets really old real quick
eh, I disagree
Keep crying
Just dont watch then🤦🏽♂️
What popping noise lol?
Why are these bots or npc liking this comment and why am I writing this comment
Josh, if you are going to tell us to split the final product into 4 or 6 portions and give us a really cheap price per portion, please actually split what you make into the portion sizes so that we can see how much each portion is. Splitting half a pound of pasta into 4 portions really isn't very much food.
Hi! Italian here. For the pastina you can also add 1-2 scrambled eggs with the butter! Very yummy and helps making you feel like you’re eating someone other than fat and carbs lol
I have to say I really enjoy the tasting reviews at the end! I think that they give a general overview! I love it!
I know someone else made this comment. But holy moly are the sound effects too much. Especially at the start. The popping and dinging is a lot man lol.
Whining about sounds on a video, are you 5 years old?
It’s such a shit editing style.
I wish i was 5. Life would be a lot easier I tell you what. But I think bringing up small criticisms can help people improve. Sad to see insults for it, though. Hope you feel better bud!
@Mochiboba90 complaining about someone's totally reasonable comment. What are you, drunk? My God, man, it's Sunday Morning!
I agree with the whiney guy. This channel is really good content, it doesn't need all the post-production razzle-dazzle.
Editing is fine, people who think otherwise need to grow up. Either that or they’re trolling.
Thank you for sharing entertaining videos all the time, can't wait for the next one ❤❤❤
Love from Bangladesh 🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩
I love the concept, I'd love to see a similar thing with more nutritious dishes (just throwing in more veg basically rather than noodle and sauce) with an option for more protein
Yay im the first ig ?!
Congratulations 🎉
Hey Joshy Poo Poo-i was at book store yesterday and the employee said your cookbook set a record as one of the worst selling cook books in past few years. The few copies on the shelf were actually thrown on the ground and employees have been kicking them across the floor. One of the floor copies even got kicked into the restroom and has been stuffed in the corner of the stall and had wet toilet paper thrown on it. Congrats!!!
the world needs this Josh. you the man!!!!
I really appreciate videos like this
I've watched a lot of videos on this channel and this is my favorite.
You are my cooking/ culinary GOD other than GUGA you have changed my cooking routine drastically. You and GUGA are LEGENDS
for the first one, instead of bucatini, i'd suggest tajarin, they're the same-ish thickness but aren't "straws" so they have a more satisfying bite and their shape coats better with the butter sauce.
sorry for bad english!
I’m really glad you added the shopping list breakdown
I love the total price breakdown!!!!
I love glass noodles more than any other noodles! Our favorite glass noodle dish is Funchoza, which is somewhat similar to 7th recipe here. We don't use mushrooms, we use thinly sliced beef.
The breakdown on cost and ingredients is key. A lot of the ingredients in these only need to be bought once and then used multiple times or people already have more than half of the ingredients. A lot of people don't understand this and it's surprising
Brilliant. Buying the cookbook ❤
I really appreciate the cost breakdown being so detailed.
