@@Snyper-if3kt yeah but your own labor has value as well. Only you can determine what that is. If you really enjoy cooking, then your labor cost for things like this will be low, because you're getting enjoyment out of the experience and not just food. If you hate cooking, your labor cost for things like this will probably be high, because you presumably would rather spend your time doing something else. People rarely factor in the value of their own labor. For example, I hate yard work and my allergies make mowing the lawn a very unpleasant experience. So it's worth it to me to pay someone else to do it. Could I do it myself cheaper? Only if I don't factor in my own value.
I'd like to see a but cheaper for a meal prep-type meal. Like something that keeps well enough in the fridge for 5-7 days which would better justify the price breakdowns and quantities in these "but cheaper"s
i love meal prepping, now that i have more time on the daily, I only make so many servings of freezer meals and then prep some easy make food for the week :)
you don't need a recipe for stuff like that. Just pick your favorite meat(s), seasonings and liquids and put em in a crockpot, then shred for sandwiches/ pot pies.
You should take a look at pro home cooks. He does a lot of meal prep on a budget and makes really good food. I don't personally meal prep, but I've used a lot of his recipes and they've turned out great.
If you don't have a rice cooker; remember that pressure cookers can do the same thing. Equal parts rice/water, set to High with a 3 minute cook. Turn it off immediately and let it naturally de-pressurize for 6 minutes before opening the valve and removing the lid. Works every time for me.
True but you're timing is off. I find that 1 part rice (rinsed) to 1.1 parts water works better. Then 4 minutes high pressure cook followed by a 10 minute depressurize then open the valve. 3/6 would result in hard rice.
@@loriki8766 maybe it's my pressure cooker but I've never experienced hard rice with a 3/6. Maybe it's my specific model; I'm using a Ninja 12-in-1 8 qrt.
No asians have approved this. I don't even approve half of the rice cookers. It might surprise you, but there are several styles of white rice in China, I disapprove all but one, and as far as I can tell Japanese rice bowl (no) is different than sushi (ok) than Korean (like) than southeast asian (no). No I don't like pressure cooker rice. Some may. But it is not a substitute for your favourite rice cooker unless it happens to be exactly a pressure cooker.
@@lubylu8345 My Instant Pot rice comes out the same as the delicious rice in an authentic Asian restaurant so I'm happy with the results. When I'm cooking dinner, I'm not seeking approval from Asians or anyone else - I'm just trying to make food that my family and I enjoy.
I love that I’ve been watching the channel long enough to make decisions on sauces to support katsu / musubi / hand rolls based on my tastes without knowing it’s a thing. Thanks Josh! Love the book!
That sushi boat seems like it can potentially have more room for more sushi. You can never have too much of anything in your life unless the latter may seem like a total burden to you.
One of the things I *do* actually remember from my time in Hawaii (born there, we left when I was barely 4) is spam *wontons.* (Spamtons, if you will.) According to family stories, I was cuckoo for cocoa puffs over those things as a toddler. Didn't rediscover them until my senior year of college.
For that little bit of extra flex, try lightly/quickly toasting your sheet of Nori before rolling! Just a second or so on a very hot, dry skillet, and the sheet will change color slightly and your done, but it adds an another layer of flavor...
Uncle Roger is my favorite. Did you catch the Epicurious episode where they posted a "4 levels of " an Asian dish (can't remember which now) & not a single chef was Asian & they all butchered the dish. All the comments were requesting Uncle Roger to review but Epicurious pulled the video an hour later. I was bummed, so wanted to see Uncle Roger review that one.
I have been contemplating the weekly awsome homemade sushi feast too! So I came up with pickle veg for futomaki, perfect my Japanese omelette, stuff tofu wrapers, California roll & bbq eel maki The boat is fantastic great job ;) thanks ur the best!!!
I dig your description of the sushi rice preparation. You cover the technique and make me feel more comfortable with using more sushi vinegar (it's freaking delicious and a lot of places recommend very little because they don't care about flavor). Looking at that, I will definitely add a little more as I love the flavor and it certainly seems to work.
I would recommend just a normal Cali roll if making at home. Avocado, imitation crab leg, and cucumber. Actually stays pretty cheap, idk how sweet potato or fried avocado tastes but this is pretty standard
Josh videos made me buy a rice cooker (a cheap one) and from that moment on I cook rice only on the cooker. It's simply amazing how easy it is to cook rice that way.
I woke up this morning, sweating from the Australian summer morning, there was no coffee, the day before pay day so can't get more. I was grumpy until I saw this video and Josh playing in the tub with his sushi 😂
Год назад+3
Josh: uses chopsticks to stir the tempura Also Josh: eats the sushi using his hands
I thought the same thing. 40 pieces is enough for 2 people, maybe 4 if you only eat them with an entrée, but there's no way that you're satisfying anyone's appetite with less than 7 pieces of sushi lol
Had to count the number of sushi on the boat after hearing that this serves six people ... feel like my sister and I would eat this much sushi together already. xD
@@sirij8784 To you maybe. Sure, sushi was created with fish and rice in mind. But food can evolve and suit the tastes of the cook. It's called innovation.
@@sirij8784 always funny to see us westies so sure of ourself when talking about matters of completely different country :D but yeah, aight. i´ll bite. care to explain why it is extremely easy to find some? i dont even speak the language and i found some pre-covid and earlier. (my passport has three stamps. 19 - 11 and 08)
It's great that this video has been on for about 5 minutes with a duration of 10 and already people commented on it. I mean you haven't watched the video how would you know if you love it or not? Papa no kiss.
I woke up today and started my day off by watching josh a grown ass human being eating sushi off a boat floating in a bathtub whilst also taking a bath . How r all you guys doing 😂
It's funny from where you were a couple of years ago to the "Mr. Beast" style content you create now. It sells so I get it but I do miss the older style videos, fermentation Friday etc.
6:48 did they just pour boiling hot pickling liquid into a plastic container lol? I know there's 'food grade' containers out there but I'd never risk that at home. Highly recommend a jar, looks cooler too
my 2nd favorite sushi is has deep-fried sweet potato as the star of the show, it's so good. number 1 is a mackrel roll with sour plum sauce, very fishy but that sauce is so good.
But also that you can’t just buy 30g of something? You have to buy the whole pack. So the upfront cost is way more. What am I going to do with 1.5 pool noodles hahah
For the cieling leak: If it's coming out of your AC, it's probably ice build up in the ducts. You're gonna have to call maintenance if you live in an apartment or an AC guy to clear it out. If you're still living in texas, it's fairly common to get during the summer when your AC is running constantly to beat the heat.
"But Expensive" where your Sushi Boat is a private Yacht and you have fresh yellowtail and tuna
😂😂😂
HAHHAHA Great idea haha
Bluefin tuna, Hokkaido uni, Kobe beef, Ossetra caviar. All the works.
Loll
"But Expensiver"
What I've learned from this series: Anything can be made cheaper if you simply ignore labor costs.
yea kinda
Well yeah, it ain't 'running a sushi restaurant but cheaper'
that's capitalism for ya

Or good ingredients. That's not sushi, that's whatever wrapped in rice and nori.
Never did I think in my life I would watch a grown man in a bathtub with a sushi boat while popping champagne
Yet here you are. 😂
Gotta enjoy life while you can yk?
What a great adventure we all just went on.
*immediately decides to try this at home*
My words
The internet makes you end up watching weird things.
I wanna see Josh cook using all incredibly cheap tools and pans! Dollar store knives, $10 saucepans etc etc !!
cheap knifes that are shapened are 90+% as good as expensive knifes. cheap pans are pretty terrible though IMO
@@josefwoodend Based take. So long as the metal of the blade is decent quality then it's basically the same knife after you sharpen it
Josh has a time machine, confirmed. The last time an avocado cost 69 cents was 1972
nah he just forgot to post the video for awhile
He could live in a part of the world were it is that cheap
I think everything is a little more affordable in Texas where he lives.
$3.29 for 6 large avocados at Costco yesterday Friday December 2nd, 2022 Austin Texas USA. I got two bags.
Thats 54 cents each.
I'd like to see a but cheaper for a meal prep-type meal. Like something that keeps well enough in the fridge for 5-7 days which would better justify the price breakdowns and quantities in these "but cheaper"s

Bruh just make Indian food, curries are designed to be meal prepped, just make fresh rice every day

just cook food instead of meal preps
Joshua playing in the bathtub with his sushi boat is absolutely one of the best things I've ever seen 😂
Except he ruined that sushi...you can see the bottom of it soaked in water. Nobody's gonna wanna eat that

Great words of wisdom. Thanks, Art the Clown.
But if you have too much sushi on the boat you will end up with too much sushi in the water

this was a very entertaining episode of but-cheaper-but-like-was-it-actually-super-cheap-eh-idc-it-still-looked-really-good-and-it-was-fun-to-watch!
69c for an avocado?! Dang, I wish. They’re on sale for two for $5 up here in Canadia :(
I feel the produce buying pain I'm way the fuck up north and it hurts
Even in Oregon I generally find 2 for $5 avos
You can buy bags or avocado that have 6-8 in it for 4.99-6.99 at superstore!
The video was definitely missing "And do you know what also floats my boat? B-roll"
9:53 the new avatar special effects are insane
I will now have to have a floating sushi boat at every party I attend 😂
I did not expect this to end with a topless Josh eating sushi in the bathtub. 🤣
"This is not Uncle Roger or Uncle Josh approved."

I love these videos, my only problem with sushi was always sticky hands even tho i dipped them in water before i roll. Great content once more
Spam sushi/kimbap is so underrated! Thanks for making it!
WOOOW amazing ideas for sushis . I loved it
I’m so jelly of the sushi, getting to be in the rub-a-dub tub with PAPA.
Cutest comment
Cringe
Josh, yet again, proving you can still be extra, and be on budget.
Since I’m not a huge fan of raw sushi this is quite amazing!! 😂 I’m still cracking up about the sushi boat in your bath tub omg 😆

$2.84 for 38g of Sugar?! What kind of sugar were you using?! 😱
He is apparently using Austin Gold Blend sugar, should out source so good ole Louisiana Cane Sugar and now you have made budget… just saying 😊
but only 69¢ for an avocado ?? what grocery store does this man go to
❤
How is this comment not higher up. Everyone commenting on the cheap avocado but not the sugar that you have to save for a year to buy lol
Josh coming in hot for us cheap bastards!!!! You put cheap and sushi in the same sentence, you have my attention 🍣

The only time we get vegetarian options is when you need to make it cheap lol
Learned about body hygiene and sushi love you Josh

Next up he'll make a Meatball Sub and make it go underwater
I'm so happy to see more veggie recipes !! Please could you do more of them ? :D
As someone who sadly doesn't enjoy the taste of seafood, all of these being non seafood options really made my day
I didn't think I'd learn that Josh has chest hair in this video, but I did

Wait 1 avocado is $0.69?!?! How??? They are like $1.5 per where I live lol. Also, as usual… deep frying oil was NOT included in the pricing
The pricing is always BS. I’d assume it’s wholesale pricing, but even in cheap grocery store no matter where you live…very little adds up.
I think I saw that price at Kroger last week. It fluctuates though.
They're about a $1 each where I live. What got me was the $2.38 for 3 tablespoons of sugar. Good thing he wasn't making cookies.
But also that you can’t just buy 30g of something? You have to buy the whole pack. So the upfront cost is way more. What am I going to do with 1.5 pool noodles hahah

Why's that bath water so blue tho? 🤔
Ah yes. I genuinely enjoy seeing the making of the✨Sushi boat✨ with our king 👑 Joshua 👑 in a tub to start off the day
Josh eating sushi in a bath tub from a sushi boat is everything I never knew I wanted.
This doesn't contain any fish. It doesn't need to be cheap; just cheaper than a sushi restaurant.
