Can you guys put this series in a playlist? It's hard to organize but would love to keep track in the playlist

Your ‘normals’ have been cooking under a pro chef for 11 years and have a palette that most people can only dream of. You might want to get new ‘normals’ and upgrade the old ones to ‘enthusiasts’ 😂

You should do a 'fake pretentious' product where you literally swap out the content with something basic, with perhaps only a few edits to it so it LOOKS the part.... Just to see if there's much of any 'hey this is all bland, subpar stuff!' moments from the normies. :p

გამარჯობა! Gamarjoba! (Hello!) Ben's pronunciation of "khmeli suneli" (ხმელი სუნელი) was actually quite good. As Georgian i should tell you to visit us when possible of course. It's unbelievably cheap for tourists and food is great all around the country. Though modern cuisine is "under development" traditional cooking and wine culture is quite extraordinary and has a lot of history ( location palys a great role in that, as the country marks the border between Europe and Asia, so as you can imagine the cuisine represents both parts of the world respectively while staying true to itself and unique).

I gotta say, I'd give Mike extra points because he identified the name of the spice blend as well as not just naming every spice he could think of

Can anyone help me out, what’s the rice dish on the right of the screen at 11:52 while they’re talking about advieh? I spot rice, raisins, dates, what looks like lentils maybe? Thanks for any help 😊😊

Mmmmmmm Barry was guessing though... I would knock off those last two since they were last minute guesses “just thrown in there”

Unless the contestants are being tested on the same material it becomes unbalanced and unfair, specially since 5 spices is much more well known worldwide. Is it rigged?

Nahhhhhhh, no, I don't accept this result. Barry's just much more willing to throw guesses out. Gotta add a penalty for too many wrong answers!

Definitely needs to be better rules. Like, this blend has 6 spices. You get 3 minutes to write them down and you can only write as many spices in the blend! Because Barry is just naming everything he can think of to score the points. lol I like the game though!

Really like this format and would love to see more info about spice blends and how to use them! Very cool to hear about interesting blends Ben hasn’t even heard of before. Something I’ve noticed occasionally over time is the word “exotic” in your video titles. Feels very privileged and colonial-even if it’s new to you and to some audience members, doesn’t make it mysteriously unknown, especially to an international audience. I would expect more from the wonderful Sorted Team than to use language that positions “different” as “other”, but it is definitely a continuous learning process!

Please try bangladeshi recipes! A spice blend from there is called “pach foron” which means five spice made of : Fenugreek seed, nigella seed, cumin seed, black mustard seed and fennel seed.

They should have lost points for guessing components that WEREN'T in the spice blend. To avoid victory via shotgun-approach (*cough* Barry *cough*)

Hello, I was wondering if y'all have ever thought of dedicating an entire video or a series for specific food "diets" i.e., vegetarianism, pescetarianism, etc? P.S. love this channel!

Okay Ben wasn't that far off from pronouncing Khmeli Suneli spice blend, as evident in second 0.42 to 0.43 in this video. cscrone.info/desk/mZap2c6YsHVgoqM/video.html A better pronunciation would come from saying the spice blend with persed lips and staring the word from the back of the mouth as opposed to open lips and more of a nasal forward pronunciation.

this was an excellent episode; great information, excellent additions to the fantastic exploration and possibilities of spice blends.... more please

My favourite spice blend: Ginger, Garlic, Cayenne pepper, black pepper, salt, chilli powder. Ginger is prepared by using a stick of ginger, slicing it then pounding it in a pestle and mortor. Garlic is prepared in the same way. I use whole caynne peppers and mash them into a pulp also. Salt needs to be sea salt, not table salt. Chilli powder is just bought. I'll use it as a marianade by added soy sauce and seasme oil to it, or I'll add it to soups and sauces.

The last spice blend is pronounced like Hmalee soonalee First sound like in human. [Hmeli suneli]

I’d love to see a kitchen essentials video, where the essentials pans, pots and tools are laid out. For example, 3 different stages (stage 1:beginner/everyday cook, Stage 2: hobbyist, Stage 3: bells and whistles). We’ve seen you guys review the unusual ones but a home cooks essential tools video would really great.

As fun as this was... I feel like it tested more “how many spices can they name in the time that happen to be in this spice blend”? Penalty for guessing or something?

I feel the need to correct the statement "this is to white wine what rose is to red wine". First, orange = long skin contact, red = varying degrees of skin contact. White is little to "no" skin contact. Rose on the other hand varies, it can be a blend of a white juice red skinned varietal with a colouring varietal, it could be limited skin contact... bla bla bla. I'm simplying but that statement just didn't hit the mark.

@Stettafire wine is all about skincare! Just a side note though wine is generally not considered a food product

I've seen my mom use some 5 Spice on some of these really small pork cubes (maybe like .5x.5x.5 inch or 1.5x1.5x1.5 cm cubes) made from leftover raw pork that are coated in just a little bit of potato starch and fried! We use it more on the outside as a coating, but man does it taste good. I can probably go through a full batch of them and still want more haha.
Nerdy Snailie
Před 11 dny
Mike and Jamie are going in the wrong direction! This wasn't: guess the perfect dish for such spice but guess the spice in that blend. I would go like Berry trying to guess as many as I can .. because there is no penalty for it.

Mike is the moral winner almost every other badge challenge episodes, but Barry and Jamie just take the win easily. Always rooting for you Mike. Better luck next time! Ben Should have taken off points for negative answers, maybe another future challenge.

Badges shouldn't be awarded by who does it best, but by who does it well enough. Also, why didn't all three of them get a go at all of the spice blends?

How about a challenge where you go to one of the behind the scenes crews' house and do a pantry/fridge last minute dinner party episode.

@Ben Khmeli Suneli is pronounced more like Hmeli Suneli. Although it is very hard for english speakers to pronounce like a native speaker because of two reasons. One, there are very few english words if any that pronounce consonants together at the beginning of the word. For example even though Knife technically has two consonants it is always pronounced with K being silent. The second is more nuanced and the reason it's spelled in english as KH instead of just H is because the H is harder than the english one. The english H is more in the back of the throat while with this H the tongue is more forward. You can hear the proper pronunciation here cscrone.info/desk/hGOMvajWrZOPn3U/video.html

They should subtract the number of incorrect guesses to mitigate the desire to just throw spices at the dartboard.

Surely per round you give them one point per correct item and take one away per wrong one so you don’t get Barry listing every spice he’s ever heard of right from the get go

Here is a pass it on challenge.... South African Pap en wors (sausage). Consisting of: Putu pap (Maize Meal) cooked to be crummy and not stiff or resemble that of porridge Sausage - Any would do, but traditionally made with beef sausage Smoor - This is a combination of Tomatoes, tomato paste, garlic and oil As an additional challenge, make corn bread using sweet corn from a can instead of a cord in brine. Good luck :)

I don’t really like how the badges are being given as prizes in battles now. The whole point initially seemed to be the boys vs the criteria, not the boys vs each other. It’s not like only one person graduates from culinary school every year because they were top of the class, anyone who fulfils the requirements does. If Ben and James did this and James named one more ingredient than Ben, does it suddenly mean Ben knows nothing about spices? Of course not! I’d like to see them all up against a specific win condition in the future, not competing against each other. (As far as badges go I mean - obviously more battles is great!!)

Try panchphoron, the Bengali and Assamese five spice blend. It's really delicious, and I don't know Bengali cooking very well, but in Assamese cooking you fry it in some mustard oil with chilis, add sliced onion, then add veg (potato, cabbage, or you can use winter squash, etc.), then a little turmeric, add a little water and salt, and cook until done. Super delicious. Terrific in dal, as well. There are different blends but the classic and best is fenugreek seeds, nigella seeds, cumin seeds, black mustard seeds, and fennel seeds.
