Do you watch you tube for cooking?

[lilmomma]

I find myself watching Maangchi on youtube to help me learn to cook Korean food. What are you watching?

[chris2269]

You tube is great for recipes...perfect steak 500 degree pan then 3 mins in oven per side... plus tons of Eric Rupert fish tips. As far as YouTube shows could not care less..same with cooking shows it's all about info at your finger tips.

Iyes, I certainly have. there are times that I want to see how something is made from start to finish. think that I can view better on video's for say how to: roti-raita -chicken tikka- clone cinna bunns etc. plus I also like to see how people are filming themselves and if it seems fun to them, viewing their cooking equipment and seeing how good their recipes are. when making the chicken tikka they said to use home made yogurt if possible, well I didn't know how to do that since I don't have a yogurt maker. watching a lovely lady make it on a video helped a lot but she was inefficient in the actual stating of ingredients and didn't finish stating the recipe or times. so sometimes I watch for the shear humor.

Nadia G. is outrageous and truly bitchin'. We need more comediennes who love to cook.

I have watched Maangchi on youtube too, but not more than 5 times. I have watched many other youtube videos for cooking related information -- all kind of things.

From Chinese stir fry videos to cookware seasoning videos to debone chicken videos to knife sharpening vidoes to knife cutting technique videos....etc.....

Of course, I sometime watch Giada De Laurentiis videos too (as rare as it may be)

In all honesty, I actually do not watch nearly as much about recipes related videos as the other cooking related videos. By far the most, I think I watched more about knife sharpening videos in total.

Giada IS beautiful. And some of her recipes have inspired deliciousness in my own kitchen. :)

For me, I enjoy the video recipes on Italianfoodnet.com--they are often posted with English subtitles. Their motto: "Italians do EAT better." And I say, yes, we do. Here is a link to one of their videos I used as a springboard to make my own tapenade pasta:

When I was knife shopping, I also watched YouTube for reviews. And I've watched some of the sharpening videos, too, because I am geeky like that.

ETA: "My Drunk Kitchen" on YouTube is pretty amusing. Here is the ice cream episode:

Her wacky "Hello!" gets me every time.

I recently watched Jacque Pepin debone a chicken with a pairing knife to learn this technique. Have watched many YouTubes to learn knife sharpening techniques

[Nanzi]

Yes I watch if someone sends me something, or I stumble on something. How to completely debone a chicken was interesting, and the one about separating eggs was cool. I don't usually go looking for topics tho.

Do you mean the video using a plastic water bottle to suck out the yolk?

[kattyeyes]

HEE HEE, I saw that recently, too. :)

Mimmo Corcione, a Naples-born home cook with personality and skill, making Neapolitan classics with humor and warmth. He's got an extensive Youtube channel.

Mimmo Corcione is great, thanx for the tip. Check out Chucheman.

I search what's my interest for the moment so I don't watch any one person or channel. However, I do find "Cooking with Dog" amusing.

Sometimes for sheer entertainment but in the category of Indian sweets, like ladoo, for technique. I love watching those videos.
