Would love to see a version of this with Mike and Kush the chaos would be fantastic.
Yesyesyesyes! A Huttlestorm and a Kushnado combined would be absolutely phenomenal!
This needs to happen!!
My favourite Kush after purple.
@C Lingard I understood that reference.
Yesss!!!
Sometimes I feel that the normals are close to catching up to Ben in terms of cooking skills, then Ben pulls something like this out of the bag just to remind us why he's the one wearing the jacket.
And Jamie says "this is how you make chicken Kiev", while staring at a sea bass.
I DIED AT “SALSA TURDE” 😂
Jamie and Mike throwing A-grade shade at Barry was unnecessary but I can’t stop cackling 😂
This vid do be ticklin' our collective funnybones 🤣🤣
But the unnecessary shade is what I came for.
@@katybechnikova2821 Unnecessary shade is Janice's middle name after all.
Almost choked on my lunch with that one 😂
Congrats man, you got top comment
I love how casual the boys are in this vid. It’s like we’re watching behind the scenes. Love the jokes, jabs, & laughs!
almost like old sorted
@@eoghanmyers2330except.now they just make gay penis jokes? It's really sad to see this
@@putnamehereholdmadoodle They're goofing off and having fun, and I'd much prefer that any day. The jokes were always there in the form of Bennuendos - you just weren't putting one and one together :)
@@putnamehereholdmadoodle just because its a penis joke doesnt make it gay. Your homophobia is showing. Unsub and leave.
Me too!!
I think Ben really removed an obstacle with leftover bits by reminding everyone: You don't have to throw your leftovers at once dish, and they don't have to be a meal. You can make smaller snack like things like the vodka fish
Exactly!
And it's good to remember, like Ben alluded to at the end, almost everything you have leftover can be bagged up and put in the freezer. Especially the bits and pieces of greens, just keep a supply and whack em into a blender for use with sauces and the like. If you're gonna blend, who cares if they might be a little freezer damaged.
Freezing leftover/"trash" bits is good idea; I did something similar when I wanted to try make ramen stock - eat whole grilled chicken few times & save the bones etc. (might have even frozen them, was a while ago), same with bone-in cuts of pork & beef. Finally made the stock when I roasted lamb, and then used all the accumulated bones & "off-bits" that gives the stock the collagen's fatty umph you just can't get from stock cubes.
iirc after 12 hours boiling, draining and putting through cheese cloth it was pretty much perfect home made ramen stock. And all it needed to make was keep the leftover bits & bones.
@@KhronicD Exactly, loved that extra tip at the end, because, for example, while two fishcakes would actually be perfect as a single person appetizer, just planting that idea in your head of, hey, I can take my time, freeze it for later, and maybe I can make something extra later, seems obvious sometimes, but often we just forget or are so not used to this way of cooking (everything needs to be made now, no instant gratification of a full meal etc.) This was a really great video to unlock creativity for people, because it's certainly not the norm right now for people to work with scraps, it kind of takes a different angle of approach to see a different picture essentially.
He does make a good point but the way I cook feels even easier - I just never have scraps. As long as it won't change the flavor or massively change the nutritional value of the meal, I just add what I have (ex: adding the whole cucumber, all of the cauliflower, etc). If I have extras of other stuff like chicken I freeze it before cooking so I have frozen, raw, unseasoned chicken instead of having to match the flavor of seasoned chicken scraps to a new meal. Maybe it's just me but seems easier than having to remember I have a bag with a paltry amount of frozen scraps in it that needs to have things added to it before I can use it.
This showed of so nicely how chefy Ben actually is. Absolutely amazing
Glad you enjoyed the vid :)
We rarely see just how good Ben is but this video showed a glimpse of his quality! He constantly adapted to new challenges already being restricted by a troublesome task and effortlessly used the available resources that were individually celebrated with a cheffy touch stepping a level above a normal’s contribution
Love having a Greek chorus of dads on the sidelines
The look straight to the camera when Ben said he had Baz’s “heads and tips” was the highlight of the video
A greek chorus of dads is the PERFECT descriptor to those two on the sidelines, lol!
Mike going from "Ebbers was supposed to be working with the scrap heap" and "salsa turd-e" to "Mate, that's fantastic! That's really good!" is truly the epitome of friendship
Imagine this but combined with the Pass It On format! Mike, Barry, and Jamie have to do a pass it on dish of their own, then Ben and Kush have to come in and do their own Pass It On with the leftovers from the normals.
Absolutely chaos would ensue and I'm here for it.
Absolutely love this idea!
Nothing would be on the plate 😂😂 nobody would use an ingredient because they wouldn’t want to confine the people after them with using the remnants of their selected ingredient 😂 if we’re lucky we might get a cabbage served up 😂
This. Sounds. Incredible.. 👏🏼
Isn't that what pass it on is? ;)
Trash it on?
I like that Ben still managed to make the neatest possible plates with very random things. You can tell he's a chef because making food from scraps is something that happens a lot in professional kitchens to feed the crew.
Just gotta say I love it every time Jaimie and Mike sing/harmonize
Makes it better that it comes with such good timing 😂
Singing is good for the soul 😁
@@SortedFoodbut not For barrys ego😅😅😅😅
Imagine a singing/cooking challenge
@@SortedFood You guys are good for my soul 🌼
The rainy graphic around Baz was hilarious, too😂
Mikes one, two punch of "Ben's supposed to be working with the scrap heap" and "Salsa turde'" literally has my asthma killing me rn... 🤣😂
Barry's dish looked like it was absolutely enjoyable, but this was Ebbers' episode to shine. What a job he did of those leftovers!
Mike's Dad jokes are really coming on a treat, he'll be challenging Jamie soon 😂
Mike and Jamie throwing shades CONSTANTLY at both Ben and Barry during this video is the most hysterical I've seen in a long while.
Barry’s little proud smile at the end when they said they were going to put his dish in the app was such a wholesome moment. It was like “yeah I did good today”
I am so amused that Ben blended his butter in a ninja creamy ice cream pot. 😂
Haha nice and creamy!
@@SortedFood😂😂😂😂Love You guys!
@@SortedFoodCan we stop with the sexual innuendos, kids watch this show man, so many gay sausage jokes etc, it's as if your all secretly sleeping with each other.
Have some self control please.
You show photos of family's buying.your merch so please.grow up and stop.
@putnamehereholdmadoodle I'm guessing you're new to the channel, this is tame compared to most of their banter over the years.
@@putnamehereholdmadoodle how do you think families are made friend?
Mike is actually hilarious! That quiet 'i love chicken kiev' almost went passed me but I actually laughed out loud when I realised what he said
Mike and Jamie roasting Barry while he’s plating his dish up for submission was absolutely hilarious 😂😂 watching Barry sink lower and lower into the ground as payback for his overconfidence and lack of hygiene was pointed out, the salsa turde comment was the icing on the cake 😂😂
Ben never fails to amaze me at how much he gets done in a short period of time.... AND the quality of what he makes! Fantastic chef!
Ben's bewildered face is just what i needed today!😂😂😂😂😂😂
Facts
You know, I really enjoy videos that aren't "challenges" or "competitions". Not everything needs to have stakes or a winner to be fun to watch, and this is proof! More chill cooking content!!
Not even talking about the amazing quality of food, but the humour and honest, genuine enjoyement of what you do is so clear to see. I love it.
I would love to see Ben on Masterchef The Professionals. I feel like he’d own it. He’s calm in front of a camera, confident in skills, deals well with distracting presenters, and as seen here would be amazing at leftover or mystery box challenges!
Jamie's "This is how they make Chicken Kievs" moment gave me such a throwback to the Chef Lanlard episode 😂
Giving a viewer a plating badge is actually hilarious. Someone else gets a badge off barrys dish 😂
We can always count on these guys to come up with amusing concepts, I already want this to be a series!
How did a scraps video turn into a Barry Roast by Mike and Jamie 😂🤣
I love that this feels so casual like friends goofing off and having fun. Even still through the low-key context, Ben's brilliance still comes through
Watching Ben flexing his culinary muscles is always a joy to behold :D
Gotta say, you guys were on fire today with your back and forth quips. But Ben putting his plates in front of Barry's and then pushing Barry's plates back even further was pure snarky genius.
@roddc7696 He’s our Snarky Geek, Snarky Geek, he’s super snarky, yow!
Ben's sweating, but this is something he's definitely familiar with as a chef, even if he dislikes the chaos. You know the kitchen likes you when the grouchy chef slams a plate of snacky scraps into you, grunting "eat".
I think it would be very interesting to have a video where both the normals and the chefs where presented with multiple dishes to plate, to see the difference in thinking. It would also be nice to have some tips for plating in the video aswell :)
Ben continues to amaze and surprise me. Yeah, I'll say it: I adore this man!
Barry's dish looked good too.
Ooh this is gonna be interesting!
Due to a bunch of historical reasons, cooking with scraps has been elevated to an artform in my culture! I actually prefer the scraps to the main ingredients for some stuff! I'm looking forward to seeing what Ebbers comes up with.
Ok Ben was on fire this episode, all of that food looks amazing
I absolutely love it when Ben gets in a mode and comes in to flex his chef muscles like this. This was a really good video.
This was such a great episode! Showcased both Barry's abilities in the kitchen and Ben's cheffiness in being able to think on the fly and make use of what's on hand to create awesomeness! Love this idea!
Mike on fire with the Dad jokes. He’s really embraced the father mindset
Mike have evolved his dad jokes. We need the dad joke of the day back so his true potential will come out!
I think this is why this channel will always be appealing. The lads can cook very well and watching them grow over the years is amazing but Ebber's shows the levels between being a very good home cook and a elite.
Mad respect for you guys for always promoting no food waste, the amount of waste in some restaurants is devastating
I know Ben is a chef and he nearly always delivers on this channel but this was the first time that I realized how good of a chef he really is. All of those dishes look superb and I bet they tasted even better.
Barry’s meal , looked like a perfect fall dish-Bens, looked like a perfect summer lunch. I would enjoy either choice!
I have noticed a shift in tone since things shifted sides for observers. Never is it more obvious with Ebbers embracing this challenge. There feels like less structure, more see what happens. It feels like a dude in industry has a day off to play. It is so very wonderful!
I always appreciate the "on the spot" made up recipies like what Ben did here. At the end of the day, im not thinkong for 2 hours how I can make all my scaps into one cohesive dish. Im just trying to use as much as I can without tooooooo much effort. This gives me reasonable ideas instead of just one very specific recipe no one will ever repeat.
That's what I do when I'm just cooking for myself. I have a look at the fridge and freezer, see what needs to be used and somehow put the things together into a dish. Very little gets wasted that way. I hardly ever follow recipes to the letter but you get good ideas from watching cooking shows and this one has the added benefit of being so very entertaining.
More of these, please! I am loving this concept! Brilliant to whoever thought of it--thank you SORTED team!
Wow. WOW. This video is the best one you've ever done. Ebber's disquiet at the start being chucked in the deep end and then Barry's cockiness being brought down a peg or two by the end. Just an amazing finish for Ebbers with all those amazing looking dishes. You should truly challenge Ben again like this. It was incredible to watch him think his way through what the hell he could pull out of his hat. Go Ebbers go! Hilarious, amazing, and delightful video this one!
This is one of my favourite videos you've done recently. I love the "just a few friends in the kitchen" vibe. Feels really unscripted and off the cuff - in a very good way. :)
I have been a subscriber for years and have always enjoyed all of your content. I'm from Puerto Rico btw 😊. This is definitely my favorite video you've done in a while. Please do this again with Miles scraps and Jamie's scraps. It was absolutely fascinating to see Ebbers come up with things on the fly. Great job as always gentlemen!
This is such a cool episode because it genuinely reflects what so much of culinary innovation has been: doing the most with what you have, especially when you have very little
What a great presentation. I do a cauliflower-base soup with the stalk all the time, but the greens cooked that way was news to me. Thanks!
I do the same, blended cauliflower stalk is so underrated and underutilized!
Mike and Jamie had me laughing so much through this video. Top quality content from my favourite RUclipsrs. Thanks guys!
So glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching :)
This was brilliant. Amazing how Ben's knowledge can create from the leftovers like that. Excellent stuff.
“Why does mine look like a leftover plate”
I genuinely laughed at that😂😂😂
Also… This concept could definitely become a series!!!
Back to rewatch and I have to say this was still as excellent as ever. A series where Mike and Jamie _also_ generate waste, maybe with some chef v chef having Ben and Kush try to use the scraps...
Mike is killing it with the side commentary.😂😂
the cure chaotic friendship energy from this video is unmatched😂
Barry's dish looked and sounded great, but man Ben, that was just impressive as heck! GREAT JOB!
This video felt very Old School sorted in a new (Chef's) Jacket. What a joy!
I can just tell Ben had so much fun creating those dishes and it's honestly so inspiring
I *love* this format and would love to see more of them! This is totally a thing I’m trying to do more of lately. I recently figured out that I can save my apple cores and turn them into a nice syrup/jelly for pancakes. Makes the place smell amazing too :)
Yes let each of normals cook a dish that one of the chefs will create from the other 2 chefs. Then flip it and let normals create from scraps.
And that's why I love Ben!!!! Well done! You can always learn something new.
Hey guys! I absolutely love this format so much. I love how annoyed ebbers gets at the waste, I love how the normals just use elements for a specific recipe and discard the rest (let us all be honest, this is us) and I absolutely love the banter, what a freaking fun episode, on my second watch! Also...please please continue to force ebbers to do things without a plan!!
I loved this! Everyone was on their A-game today, the peanut gallery was sassy, Ben showed that he really is a phenomenal chef, (like, seriously, he's as good as James, Kush, etc..., he just loves a casual cook!) It had everything!
I would love to see this be a next staple alongside Pass It On. There's actually a lot of potential to this, especially if you do twist it into a competition style vid, rather than a tough challenge for the chefs.
Awesome work, guys!
Cauliflower stalks(the one with the leaves ,not the main stem) are pretty good addition to 'Aloo posto', a Bengali dish. They retain some bite and little bit of the cauliflower flavour when cooked down.
Mike is coming up with great Dad Jokes. The Spaff has been DETHRONED and he better watch his back 😂
Love this format! You could do an episode that's a deep dive on chicken stock. How to make, how to store, what to use for, and taste comparisons of dishes made with homemade stock vs store bought.
How are you all absolutely smashing it with these new video formats? They have all been absolutely fantastic and totally in the spirit of Sorted's current era of videos. Love them so much, as well as the subtle shift in filming/edits, like Mike and Jamie's Office moment at the beginning of the video. I died laughing at that!
Omg the lads were in fine form today! Funniest episode in a minute
Video idea see what comes in a food bank package for four buy those items and see what you can make to help food bank users
Great idea - thank you!
@@SortedFoodYessir!🎉🎉🎉🎉
This is the series. I absolutely love things like this. A big reason I bought sidekick was to have good ways to use leftovers and bundle recipes together. This is even more in that same vein.
I don't know if it is the sleep deprivation, but Mike was on fire this episode! Had me in stitches the whole time.😂
110% want to see this format return! The spontaneity required by the chef, the jocularity of the boys on the side, and watching the slow death of Barry's confidence makes this one of my favorite videos!
A clean-up challenge would be fun for the crew, with tips and tricks included.
3:45 thank you gentlemen🤣🤣🤣 punctuating Bennuendos with a look has made my year🤣🤣🤣
I love the banter and the giggling. Barry trying not to spit all over his food at 12:20 got me.
The only problem with these vids is they're not longer. Thanks guys.
More like this please!
Ben's dishes genuinely sounded so good. Always impressed with his ideas but blown away by this episode. Will definitely use some of those with my left over cauliflower (I always just use the whole thing in the same dish to avoid waste but those sound better!)
This video had me smiling and laughing aloud for most of the video. You can tell these are guys who've known each other a long time, and can be very personal without being offensive. Because you know your mate isn't really bagging on you, just poking a little fun. That and how they can all laugh at themselves.
Just wholesome and fun. Thank you sorted, for making a terribly boring and wasteful day fun at the end. ^-^
I love this concept
“Don’t you dare give him a sprig. Only give him the stems.”
Great T-Shirt Idea.
We all know how much Ebbers love a sprig!
@@SortedFoodYessir😊😊😊😊
Great vide as always guys!
13:08 Barrys utter dejection had me on the floor!😂😂😂😂😂😂
Leave a hearth to a fan❤❤❤❤❤❤
This was a bangin episode. So many hilarious moments…fantastic food and camaraderie. I felt bad for poor Ben on the sidelines at first, looking like he was having a little meltdown internally but he really showed why he’s the chef and the boys are the normals, regardless of how good the boys are these days.
I'd love to have Ebbers follow up my cooking. it would be like making a silk purse from a sow's ears. and no, i don't cook pig ears.
Poor Barry xD I love their dynamic. Truly entertaining and enjoyable to watch, I have been for years, and its not even because of the amazing food anymore. It feels like just chilling out with a bunch of friends! Well done guys.
So entertaining watching how creative and skilled Ben is ❤ more of these plz 😅
Cooking runs in my family, my mother had my sister and I in the kitchen from an early age and taught us all the basics.
My sister is a chef now and I am a very competent home cook.
However, I think it is only in the last 18 months that I discovered how tasty cauliflower stalks and leaves are.
Found a curry recipe in the Co-op food magazine that included them. I can't believe I'd been throwing them away my whole life.
I love how it went from lets rib Ebbers to rinsing Barry.
"head and tip and stuff" the look on the boys faces when he said that lmfao
Damn that was great. Again, again, now with the other two!!!
More scrap use please. This was perfect.
Mike and Jamie's jabs at Barry's dish killed me🤣
Adored this. Ben at his creative best and Barry showing his cooking chops. Good wholesome fun and I shall henceforth refer to all my failed sauces as salsa turde.
Now heres a sketch i can get behind. Anything a person can learn to reduce their waste to virtually zero, is an amazing realm of information
I loved when Mike and Jamie harmonized again with "hello darkness my old friend~"
Mike and Jamie were on fire today! Brilliant episode and fantastic food by both the boys!
From the comedy, filming, and dishes, this might be my favorite video in quite some time.
I like it when Ben has to get creative like this and the mini budget vs premium budget ones
The look they gave the camera at Ben's mention of head and tips had me jn stitches!
