4 Levels of Lamb Chops: Amateur to Food Scientist | Epicurious
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 17 май 2024
- We challenged chefs of three different skill levels - amateur Emily, home cook Daniel, and professional chef Frank Proto from The Institute of Culinary Education - to make us their best lamb chops. Once each level of chef had presented their creation, we asked expert food scientist Rose to explain the choices they made along the way - both good and bad. Which of these lamb chops would you serve to your esteemed guests?
Check out Frank's level 3 recipe on the ICE blog: www.ice.edu/blog/frank-proto-...

Such a pleasure to work with so many talented people.
Wassup frank
How long did it take you to raise that lamb for this episode?
What was the name of the Lamb you raised?
Great work as always! 🔥🔥
This guy!!! Always a pleasure working with you, Frank!
Emily: Am I level 2 yet?
Daniell: I need 1 weird ingredient and I'm set.
Frank: I don't claim to be perfect, but everyone claims I am.
Fr fr
Right I don't get Daniels flavors ever 😂
@@HT-pl8du their just unusual but unusual is gud
@@HT-pl8du you do know peanut sauce is an actual thing. India and alot of southeast have a variation of it. And its normally done as a dipping sauce for meat
@@victoriabitong760 Vegan Salad with Peanut Sauce is a popular dish among Indonesians and their Diaspora.
Also known as Pecel.
Why is it not a thing yet for them to try each others dishes????? I wanted to see Franks critique of Daniels peanut lamb!
These scenes are all shot at different times, and then it's stiched together
I really wished they did that too!
Cause these are probably all shot on different days
To me, it is not really a problem if they do not try each others dishes. Cooking shows are like that, the host cooks, tastes and will always say it is good.
Ya they should
Frank:"If you want people to think you're on my level"
C'mon Frank, no one is on your level #GOAT
#LAMB
Saul: I'm under his level. Maybe around his level.
@@Aidan_Yao I like Saul, in that he’s basically the level three version of Lorenzo.
That is also mexican unlike Lorenzo who I believed to be filipino or something
lomb
You can definitely tell that Emily has a lot of confidence! She's definitely not doubting anymore!! I feel Soo good about her :D
Have you seen the video where she cooks with Frank?
The french toast is going to blow your mind then
Because she is using recipes
@@poopoogamer1232 aren’t they all using recipes to cook? each one of them has their own recipe they follow
I'm sorry guys, but Emily is on the verge of reaching level 2! Her knife skills might not be that good but she is developing a quite interestig flavor profile! 😊😊😊😊
I would have taken her lamb way before -Daniel's. I think she did a much better job. And I like her better
Because she uses recipes for these challenges
@@francisdhomer5910 why? Lamb and peanut sauce is not uncommon. I think the lamb loin is a much better cut than the shoulder
She's way past level one. She's pretending for the camera
Plus, she doesn't put ketchup on everything anymore!! Way to go, Emily!!
“I do not know what frenching means. If it’s not kissing, I have no clue.”
-Daniel, 2021
It's not a manucure either.
Neither it's fries
Daniel Victor is a recording artist and male model and his information found on Google don't seem to have anything at all about him having an interesting in cooking. Yet he is their level 2.
@@ModernGamesSuck this literally can be said to the other level 2 chefs too lol
@@giornogiovanna4602 I agree. It just doesn't make sense to me.
People in the beginning of the series: Ugh I hate how the level 3 chef introduces himself
People now: FRANK MEMES
yea lol
I see more people disliking level 2 chefs because of how obnoxious and pretentious they can be, and I think I agree with those statements. Heck, sometimes the amateur level 1s end up with something much better than a loudmouth level 2.
@@SparkVulpa back then, level 2 chefs were the fan favourite 😆
@@SparkVulpa we can exclude lorenzo on "disliking level 2 chefs", aren't we?
@@lazzuuu21 You can exclude Lorenzo, Anthony, Beth and Julie from the list. All the others are either meh or not fun to watch.
Everybody gangsta till Chef Frank starts making a crown out of lamb chops.
If I am ever a king, this wwould be my crown.
Ur pfp is nice
It won't be a crown for too long
will you call your Kingdom: Meatland?! :O
@@belalabusultan5911 uhhh, so does he call his citizens " my meat" ?
@@lilyfhonazhel2675 meating out his punishment, could be call, beating his meat...
I’m surprised Frank didn’t introduce his lamb and how he raised her for this moment. Her name was Ada btw
Not Charles or Caroline?
I like the current edit; cos it look like all 3 chefs are chatting with each other
Yes!! It's great
Yay!
"Garlic îs important. Not just for lamb, but in life."
If Emily is making a pan sauce, she’s definitely level two!
Emily is a smurf shes totally lvl2! too humble
Get us Saul vs frank cook-off. Where they just try to out-do each other on who has more preparation for ingredients.
Saul and Frank memes😂
Yes! This needs to happen, like now!
Would be amazing!!!
Salt Master vs. Cheese Trick
The memes would not be able to handle it. How can we compare two god of this community, I have no clue
Frenching the bone, boning the French, whatever floats your boat
Hol up
wait a damn minute
Ñom 😏
Arts and crafts with chef Frank is a class I would gladly take.
Absolutely and did you know that he has his own RUclips channel check it out it’s good, and I think it’s cool that I’m the first person to comment on your comment.
It is amazing that Frank spent 12 months of preparation just to breed his own lamb.
As a Southeast Asian, I LOVE peanut sauce 😂 you can never go wrong with it. We dip our prawn crisps in peanut sauce, pour it on meat skewers, grilled lamb, even fried rice. Easy to make and tasty. Daniel’s dish looks amazing to me!
Oh please, you have the hots for him. That sauce was plain and boring.
@@mle6501 bro it was pure sarcasm how dry is your sense of humor.
It looks good to me also !
Emily's skills have really improved over the years! I'm so proud of her for making that delicious looking lamb! 😋
Right at this point sus needs a promotion
To think, she used to *only* be known as the ketchup girl. Don’t get me wrong, she still is, but now she’s actually broadened her culinary knowledge.
@@melbell0865
if it's not sweet, Ketchup goes will with it.
@@belalabusultan5911 no
@@poopoogamer1232
give me 1 example of non-sweet food, that Ketchup does NOT go well with it.
I put it on Shwarma, Pizza, Burger, I use it as a dip for fries etc...
Emily has grown so much in regards to her culinary expertise. She has left the ketchup mishaps in the past and now she's cooking like a level two!! She should definitely get upgraded.
Mishaps? 😀
I'm surprised Frank made it back in time. It must have taken a while to build his own farm to raise that lamb.
We use peanut in a lot of sauce here in Indonesia (or every other Southeast Asia countries). One of the most well known is Sate Kambing which is basically a kebab or yakitori, chopped lamb meat skewered, smoke grilled, and then served with peanut+sweet soy sauce sauce
I didn’t relate to the lamb-peanut sauce combo, even though I do enjoy both. Your recommendation as a Southeast Asian cook at least gives me the courage to make a small test. I’d hate to ruin such an expensive and rare taste treat. Thank you!
@@bparrish517 also Indonesian here, can confirm Grilled Lamb and Peanut sauce is delicious
As Malaysian, yes, peanut sauce goes so well with grilled/bbq meat. Peanut has a very earthy fragrant flavour that is so unique
Ooooooh love this!
Daniel: Peanut butter sauce sounds weird, but it's delicious.
Literally all of Southeast Asia: Peanut sauce is a real thing. It isn't weird.
Oh so now you’re a chef for 24 years, Frank? Not since the beginning of time???? Frank???????
He’s 24. So don’t worry
time began 24 years ago come on check the news
@@ekiwillow5019 theoretically I think time is only 20 years old so he is older than time itself
Franks way of Frenching that rack of lamb looked so much easier than the traditional way using only a knife other videos have, legit blew my mind
that's because it doesn't work half the time and its a lot easier to use a knife, don't just believe someone because you like their personality. Try things for yourself before giving credit to a pre-organized cooking show were if it didn't work they would cut it from the show
daniel's lamb chops reminds me of satay (malay/indo dish) wish is basically grilled meat skewers with peanut sauce. needless to say they are addictive.
Yes they are super good
YES
Haven't tried them, sound really good, peanut sauce in general is something I like a lot
@@angeljafbenitez1843 you should try it, it is delicious
ayo fellow malay
Me as each chef level introduce themselves:
Emily: the relatable ketchup girl 🤣
Daniel: the home cook who may or may not have starred in a Hallmark movie 😍
Frank: the god of cooking 😮
And how about rose?
@@RaghuvirVarma 🙇♂️ that would be it~
Daniel is a clown
@@MissClassyDoll a very hot, sexy clown
Going for chef 1 over chef 2 on this one. Emily def deserves her promotion to Level 2!
she's still a hit-or-miss for Level 2, some times she make mistakes that lower dish quality, sometimes she uses easy/simple techniques to save her the effort etc.....
she's going there tho.
I don't think Emily deserves to become level 2 yet ahaha
But Daniel shouldn't try and cook. I think it adds to his obnoxious ego.
I'm guessing you're saying this bc of the peanut lamb...while I'm also skeptical I've learned a while ago to not judge something before you experience it. It might be good, it might not be, neither of us know until we try it.
@@stephenwu1524 guess again
@@aposslex Well if that's not the reason I have no complaints. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion if non-ignorant :)
The simple fact that Emily chose to marinate the meat instead of throwing it directly in the pan with some salt and pepper shows that she has gotten extremely close to being as good as the level 2 chefs haha
She is a level 2 chef now!!!
I used to watch chef Ramsey frenching lampchop and now chef Frank enlightened me with such a cool tip of removing the meat off the bones 😆
That’s why I like chef Frank, he’s like a combination of my two favorite cooking personalities: Gordon Ramsay and Alton Brown. He has the skill and tact of chef Ramsay, but the ingenuity and sarcastic wit of Alton Brown. Not to mention the meme quality and quantity between Frank and Gordon.
Exactly 👍🏻👍🏻The skills and the wit, what a great combination
I made lamb chops yesterday, oh my god 🤤😍😍 I marinated it by blitzing
-Mint
-Goat cheese
-Rosemary
-Coriander
-Mild Red chili
-Balsmatic vinegar
-Salt, pepper, Olive oil
-Tsp of peanut butter
Marinate in fridge then Cook 2 minutes on each side high heat
Wow, just wow. I was blown away by my own marinate recipe 😍🤤🤤😍😍
Video: Hi I'm Emily
Me: Yay
V: Hi I'm Daniel
Me: Yay
V: Hi I'm Frank
Me: *highpitched fangirling noises
SAME!
Exactly🥳
Ong
He has a RUclips channel
It's rare to see someone with a Wheel of Time DP!
Emily, Daniel and Frank-three of my favorite people in this series. (And, of course, the always-delightful Rose!)
And my favorite cut is lamb shoulder steak. It gets a bad rap for being tough but I’ve never found that to be the case-it’s flavorful, rich and delicious.
Frank: So we're gonna make our sauce with tarragon vinegar, garlic, dill, chives, and other herbs that accent and go well with the lamb, but won't overpower...
Emily: Be. Delicious. Be. Be. Delicious.
Emily :Ketchup
Daniel:Sweet
Frank :Chef
Frank: Salt
Hotel :Trivago
Ah, Lamb Chop, never ate one. But I guess it'll be good with Frank's Recipe.
You’ve got to try it!! My dad said he never liked lamb (but because he had never tried it). He also likes all his meat well done because again, he’s never tried it medium-medium rare.
I made lamb chops once for a party with a red wine, rosemary, garlic marinade and I grilled them to medium rare-medium, and I caught my dad with like 6 of them eating them and sucking on the bone 🤣😂🤣
What! No way! You HAVE to try it!
@@isailopez423 please make a video for this recipe. I'm starving for this tasty sounding food!!!
Same
@@Dekan83 look up Tatyana’s Everyday Food here on RUclips and it’s her Garlic and Herb Lamb Chop video! Hope this helps :)
The fact I knew who was in this just from their hands and arms means I've watched way to many of these.
Daniel: Trust me. The peanut butter is good.
Also Daniel: Blackberries go with grilled cheese
they actually do tho lol
Brie and Pear on sourdough is delicious-choose a good cheese to pair with blackberries. Daniel is right again.
While I can't really recommend peanut butter for the meat. Peanut Sauce is not all that weird on SouthEast Asian cuisine. Our chicken satay do use Peanut Sauce
@@dodixaverius9176 Lamb satay is BOMB and the only time I've truly liked lamb! lol
@@dodixaverius9176 periodt. Idk why so many ppl in these comments are so weirded out. Peanut sauces and marinades for meats are quite common in southeast Asian cuisine
What I like about Epicurious is that the people cooking on this channel have become a family together. So cool, you know, bringing people together like that.
Daniel's lamb looked and sounded good without the peanut sauce. That said I think his sauce would be really good for a chicken satay type dish. Also, is he in a mattress commercial? There's one I keep seeing on hulu and I swear it's him.
I'm thinking you could really lean into the Asian theme and serve on a bed of steamed, fragrant rice with a side of stir fried veggies.
disagree, peanut sauce goes with everything even with charcuterie or nachos
It would be great with chicken satay! I have no clue why he chose to push it onto a rack of lamb..
I am so excited to see Emily's lamb in ketchup sauce!
In the Philippines, we have a meal that we cook in peanut sauce and you can cook with any meat you like.
As an Australian who loves their roast lamb fairly well done (if it simply falls off the bone it's perfect), I would say Emily's version is a rather nice and simple way to cook a meal of lamb for a family of 4-8 people that could be enhanced by the jabbing of the meat to allow the marinade to soak in better and marinade for longer, for a nice twice a week dinner (or at least for a Sunday Roast lunch or dinner).
Level 1 - LAMBorghini
Level 2 - grand sLAMB!
Level 3 - a fregging crown !!
Frank: So to start off we’re going to let this lamb graze in the Garden of Eden, and this is going to incorporate some great flavor into the meat naturally. Next, we’re going to put it on Noah’s Ark, and what this is going to do is put some nice moisture into the air around it which will help tenderize the meat for when we eventually butcher it in several centuries. Next…
Ok honey when do we start promoting the level one chefs cause Emily making lamb chops and lobster Mac and cheese it’s giving level 2🤣🤣
Me: How much salt do I add?
Frank: Yes
Emily is always my favorite- her enthusiasm and jokes are the best hands down!!
This is where Daniel's peanut butter thing started. I mean this guy put peanut butter, sweet potato and cranberry in a turkey sandwich
"Try it. Trust me. You'll like it."
Whatever you say, handsome.
😂😂😭
i love rose so much she’s so nice and informative ❤️
frank is such a dedicated chef. he raised his own lamb years ago just to make this dish
Daniel's recipe is not that weird. It's basically a version of an indonesian dish called "sate kambing" minus the skewer
“ If you want people to think you on my level, just made crown roasted lamb”
That is the point Frank, not everyone on this planet own a sheep farm
He don't he just waves his hand and they come running.
@@francisdhomer5910 well duh, it’d be kinda weird if a god couldn’t command a few sheep.
Frank: I don’t really like to add much to the lamb- just some ingredients that will accent it.
Daniel: uses ingredients like jalapeños, sriracha, and peanut butter 🥴🙃
Then again, what else do you expect from the guy who put blackberries in his grilled cheese sandwich?
@@melbell0865 trueeee 😂
Glad they did. It would be a boring video if they made similar food.
@@melbell0865 I’m not sure what’s wrong with that. The only problem with his grilled cheese was that he burned the hell out of it. Fruit+cheese+bread is otherwise a pretty good and common combo.
@@atlf3357 I think most of the people who dislike Daniel's ideas are the people who only follow mainstream food. Like avocado toast lol
The audible “Yes!” When Frank was the level 3 chef
*patiently waits for Emily to put ketchup on her lamb*
Frank : you dont need to search for your soulmate,you can make your own soulmate
Im surprised frank didnt say "Lets wait 2 years to grow our own lamb"
Now that this series has been around for a while and a lot of people are recurring members you can really see how comfortable they are with the camera and with each other. I love the little comments they make about each other it warms my heart. This is one of my favourite series' on RUclips! ❤️
There's a french recipe where you coat the meat with mixed almonds, hazelnuts, walnuts, dried apricot... So a sauce with cilantro, lime and peanut butter isn't that weird.
Aw so proud of how far Emily has come
I love confident Emily so much. I need more of her 🥰.
I remember my first 4 levels video that introduced me to possibly the best trio in the series to this day: Emily, Lorenzo and of course, Frank. Then you have other chefs that have come and stayed and gone, but it's always been a blast with these videos. Thanks guys and gals.
Frank & Emily = icons😩🤞🏾
Praise be to Frank: i’ve never seen racks frenched with string
It's amazing how far Emily has come. 😭😭😭
“These baaaaa-d boys” lol sorry I just got it 😂
It would be really cool to see the food scientists cook...just with all the knowledge they have!
What a nifty way to French the bones!! I'm definitely updating my technique on that one.
Epicurious, this series is wonderful. Any chance you might upload in 4K in the near future? I think food is one the things where it really makes a difference.
You folks are going to have to promote Emily to a home cook at some point. She has learned so much since I've been watching her.
Fully enjoyed this episode. Thanks guys!
The way frank talks about cutting the lamb, he sounds like he's planning a heist.
Rose, thank you for your analysis. Today’s episode needed something to pull it together and for me, your thoughts did it.
"I do not know what Frenching the bone means" 🤣🤣
Sounds so dirty when Daniel says it.
Thank you chef Frank for showing us how to french rack of lamb bone. Very helpful and amazed to watch.
1:37 now we need a commentary from Frank to how he liked that plating. Also we need Daniel & Frank in a Video just so they can plate dishes togehter :p
Kudos to Emily for not using ketchup in her recipe😂
"Did I mean to put all that much? Eh, I think it's fine."
ah, the home cooking experience
this trio is everything to me
Love the peanut sauce idea!! Tried something very similar
It's been a long while since I've watched any of these. I was fully expecting Emily to load up her lamb chops with ketchup.
im a simple man. I see Chef Frank, I click it
Three of the best chef's of epicurious. ♥️
If the 3 chefs were in a school anime
Emily: The 'wire' girl who is introverted. The only thing she is known for is putting ketchup on everything she eats. She is often taken advantage of by the bullies
Daniel: The overly passionated athlet. Who is very popular and he is a very reliable and kind guy
Frank: The teacher that every student likes. He is very wholesome. Later he becomes the motor of the main protagonist
Lol
I’d watch this anime!
I just love to see Emily's cooking. It's so charming and entertaining!
The day we see Emily introduce herself at Level 2 is a day of CELEBRATION. YOU GO EMILY! Im rooting for you!
Emily you have come so far! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Evil Frank be like "Hi! I'm Frank and I'm a level 3 chef" while Evil Emily be like "I don't even like ketchup"
I always learn something new from Chef Frank
I’ve never seen anyone French a lack of lamb like Frank did - bloody genius. Normally I just go to town with a knife and clean each bone
I love how we can all collectively agree the level 4 doesn’t matter.
Post-cook, chef Frank’s looks beautiful. Pre cook? The lamb crown looks like the monster from The Thing (Kurt Russel version)
Yessir frank is here that’s all I need to watch
The trifecta! My three favorite chefs combo.
Emily: Lamb-borghini
Daniel: PEANUTS
Frank: AHS: Lamb chops
I liked the video as soon as I saw the three chefs
Excellent 👌🏻 Greetings from Scotland 😊 Have a lovely day everyone 🌻
I love these 3 so much
This guys are my combo for a fun cooking
