This perfectly captures how every time I try a new recipe there are always problems I just didn’t anticipate.

Content warning- that one actually gets a little gruesome and dark.

Oh, man, my favorite cooking channel which has provided me with this top level diamond gem video I love to post whenever I get the chance:
It’s my version of a RickRoll I think…

The genius of these videos is that he’s not only hilarious in his own right, but he’s also perfectly satirizing the genre. He knows exactly what’s stupid about “life hack” and “five minute cooking” videos.

I showed this to my wife and when he gets to the part with the jasmine, she’s like “ok, wtf. He didn’t rinse the rice, I’m immediately judging this person”.
Me - “hold on”. LOL

Ahh How to Basic. It’s been a while.
Once you’re done with all those there’s also Swedish cooking
and the actually useful You Suck At Cooking e.g.
I own and use that cookbook!

First time I saw that one I nearly passed out hyperventilating. Soooo good - cooking with thermite is fun!

That… did not go where I expected it to go.
Hysterically funny though.

My grandmother had a not altogether safe way to cook eggs sunny side up. First, she’d use a lot of lard and get it very hot… then drop in the eggs. Once close to being cooked on one side, she would tip the frying pan and use her spatula at the deep end to splash hot oil over the eggs to finish them off. All that lard and all the splashing. Not for me.

Awesome.
This one’s an actually useful recipe for spag bol. Done in a similar tone, but my goodness the recipe is delicious. I made lasagne with it, and it was very very well received. Notably, like the Swedish dish, milk is an important ingredient.
The upload date is April 2020, so that explains some of the banter.
