This is especially funny in Russian, because in Russian quinoa is spelled "киноа" and if you get rid of the last letter you get "кино", which means "a movie". David Lynch on Cooking a Movie.
So here's my theory: the quinoa represents the eternal quest for sustenance of the soul. The broccoli represents the eternal darkness of evil. When combined with some vegetable bouillon, you are left with the convergence of all realities. And dinner.

I love that you see him washing the pot. I'm not a big time cooking shows' viewer, but in my limited experience, I have *never* seen any of the chefs cleaning any dishes, let alone having concern about something sticking to one. Well done, Mr. Lynch!
This video made me try quinoa, followed this recipe then tried a bunch of variations. That was like 3 years ago, Ive eaten it every week since. Thank you David!
i watch this often when i have lots of anxiety. it helps. just the way he does things, and how he explains things, and just hte fact that quinoa is a rather simple dish. it helps.

This is chill-out viewing at its finest. Shame it only lasts 20 minutes - man needs a whole series. Doesn't have to be cooking - just anything in this style.
I want a small dwarf to come out and tell us the ingredients by talking backwards. I also want Frank to come out and tell us how it isn't as good as the amryl nitrate - but it'll do. That's what I want from a David Lynch cooking show.
That story he told is a lot like his films. Very elaborate descriptions of mundane things that are made into something far more intense and unnerving than... well, the mundane.
It can’t be a mundane story. The money transactions don’t make sense. A small copper coin for an item and a magically beautiful bill in exchange for a double hand full of silver coins in Venice !? (Even if just silver coloured that story still makes no sense !)
welp, I'm about to start season 2 of Twin Peaks and happened upon this vid. I also have quinoa in the kitchen, so I'll be making this for dinner tonight while I watch!
This is the greatest random video I have ever had the pleasure of coming across. I haven't even watched any of Lynch's work, but this is equally entertaining and revelatory of his brilliant mind. Now if only I could muster up the courage to watch Mulholland Drive.
He won't ever explain his filmography but will spend twenty minutes explaining to us how to make quinoa.
you're damn right
Looool

Lol
Yep
David is gonna flip when he discovers cous cous

Nothing makes sense, why do we need to drink a transparent odorless liquid to survive?
Watching Lynch make Quinoa and tell stories is more entertaining to me than most Hollywood movies.
I'd like to imagine the droning background noise wasn't just added in post but actually starts playing IRL when he's telling a spooky anecdote.
I concur I can't believe I made it to the end. It feels like he knows how we are in our heads.

Виталий Вараюнь Yes, and in English it's slang to say a movie is 'Kino' which means it's excellent. Funny huh?
Damn...
"кино" comes from the greek word for "movement", and his story begins in greece
In German, Kino actually means „cinema“ or „movie theater“.

Lynch should have his own cooking show...
What are you, mad ? The entire nation will have the most surreal of dinners every morning.
are you trying to say that is a bad thing?
We would have had them already, too.
Basically the dinner scene in Eraserhead.
He would just show the first few steps and then leave us hanging.
So here's my theory: the quinoa represents the eternal quest for sustenance of the soul. The broccoli represents the eternal darkness of evil. When combined with some vegetable bouillon, you are left with the convergence of all realities. And dinner.

David Lynch's Theory:
It's just a fucking quinoa
I think he's trying to get people to eat healthy cheap nutritious food. Because it serves life
I think it's BULL shit. GET REAL
Sometimes quinoa is just quinoa
David Lynch: “No.”

He just has such a fantastically natural way of making the most mundane things intensely interesting and highlighting the absurd humor in everyday life.
Such a good pan..nice, fresh water...nice hot flame. I adore him, what an exultation of small things. Yes, David, that's a sense of life!
This is the way! Enjoy all the small stuff.
He's a dedicated practitioner of meditation. It strikes me that this is in itself a meditation.
Life, simple sweet and earthy.
wiórki kokosowe he sounds like Donald trump 😂 water...nice fresh water
wiórki kokosowe it's not that deep
i like how he's cooking wearing a nice, fine suit
High contrast film + David Lynch + quinoa = suspense af
Only a few minutes in so far but I'm really on edge expecting it to get weird.

1 in water
that much sea salt
1 cup of quinoa (a bit less)

Correction - 1/2 cup quinoa (a little less)
You forgot 1 cigarette.
FRESH WATER
Soy sauce
AMINO ACIDS
The noises at 14:53 weren't edited in. Lynch is just so powerful he produced the sounds with his hand motions.
hahahahah i love this

I've also never seen a chef take a smoke break and tell stories.
This video made me try quinoa, followed this recipe then tried a bunch of variations. That was like 3 years ago, Ive eaten it every week since. Thank you David!
I’m considering it lmao
This video has an uncanny ability to improve my mood no matter what, it's just lovely

David Lynch introduced me to quinoa. I have been eating it every day since first watching this segment on the Inland Empire dvd back in 2008.
Every day? Have you noticed any benefits? Haha
This was surprisingly entertaining. Would watch a Lynch cooking series.
FROG MOTHS!

HOW

RogersBase he edited the comment?

If David ever was the voice for an audiobook I would definitely listen to it no matter what the book was, could listen to him tell stories all day.
Surprise he is
Is this a deleted scene from Eraserhead?
Jack Rudden lol, Gordon Cole cooking for Henry and Mary before they move into the apartment
inland empire
this is much too fast paced to be part of eraserhead
A wonderful example of a man that found how to allow his inner child to remain dominant with his magical words that keep you glued to his moments
Can I have David Lynch narrate my Life... Just have him walk around beside me, and narrate everything I do. Magic!
Sea salt, soy sauce, and bouillon together is so salty, you can tell he's a smoker.
It depends on how much of each you use.
I use the Aminos on a regular basis. IMO, he used a fuck of a lot. Like, I would find that bowl unpalatably salty.
@@JoeJoeTater I made it once just to see. Can confirm - inedibly salty.

1:44 “now come over and see how much quinoa I put in this cup”

David Lynch always has this background music playing wherever he goes and whatever he does when he gets there.
I really like the background song and how mysterious and honestly beautyful it gets when David starts his story
"To buy some time, you have some wine" ... those are words to live by.
Here is me uhh taking a smoking, uhh, thinking about all the little quinoa's uhh, bubbling in the uhh, pan
“…bottles of sugar-water” *ominous music plays. This is why we love David Lynch

Quinoa goes perfect with a side of garmonbozia. And for desert, a nice hot cup of joe and a slice of cherry pie.
yes, it goes perfectly
I only get my pie from the Double R. They got a cherry pie there...that'll kill ya.
He should have it with a steak so rare you could sell it at Tiffanys.

It started like this for me too, then I watched all of his work (that I could find), a'd it has been a hell of a ride, wish you the same wild journey
S03E08 makes sense with the frog moths now
If you took a shot of alcohol every time Lynch said "quinoa" you'd be dead by 2:26
This man was born to be a storyteller
Holy shit 10:10 "frog moths"
Is that where the frog bug in episode 8 came from, David?
Fun Facts well uh... I live in an ex-Yugoslavien countries and I can assure you that we don't have moth frogs here haha
Great observation!
I don't know if anyone has tried to do this.. but that is a LUDICROUS amount of liquid amino acid.
David Lynch is truly the master of horror. I have never been this unsettled by the amount of salt someone put onto a meal
This wasn't a movie about making quinoa. And yet it was that too.
