    While growing up no one ever taught me a single thing about cooking, and after wanting to leave my mom's house, frustration really came over me when trying to cook, I would feel handicapped. I've learned a lot since watching your videos and now I feel authentically proud of what I can cook, and really love the process. You are amazing!
  • grate some garlic and ginger, freeze them in ice cube trays ahead of time. store them in a ziploc bag, makes it super easy to just pop a cube when needed
  • Man I love how you donā€™t just give recipes to make ā€œmaybe later when I have timeā€ you teach home cooking as a lifestyle with a framework that you can integrate into your life busy as we are. Itā€™s honestly helped so much as Iā€™ve gotten busier this year
  • @whomstd
    Ethan, as a former consultant myself, I appreciate your framework-based thinking in making these recipes (please release a book of all these compiled together!)!
  • @mindstalk
    As jaclyn said, "sauces that will keep in the fridge" (or shelf) vs. "sauces that may produce botulism" would be of interest.
  • @SnackPack913
    These framework videos are super helpful. Letā€™s you understand the basic process but still use your creativity to make something new and interesting
  • @MrRoflHamster
    I love that you are combining the framework and execute examples so we have a starting point!
  • This has become my favourite youtube cooking channel! Love the depth you go into, the food science and the editing, keep it up mate!
  • @juiceloose100
    Learning to cook well is the money saver soo many people overlook.. get restaurant quality food you never get sick of without the price tag.. Plus, impress your friends/others! You can't lose learning to cook.
  • @grantboyer9769
    Kind of out of left field, we had a mental health crisis in the family this week that threw a lot of things - including meal time - out of wack. I had watched your video earlier, and fell back on that in crunch time to get food on the table. Quick and easy (and even delicious), even in a crisis. Thanks for creating this video. Helped my family out a ton.
  • @xsnipersgox
    the key is, always have a fall back protein and starch 1)spam or frozen pre cook shrimp for protein, and dried noodle at all times. keep frozen mix veggies and garlic and onions stocked at all times. never not have ingredient ever.
  • @mrburnout
    can you do one of these framework videos for curries?
  • The Habit and Timing annotations are really helpful in this framework. Thanks Ethan
  • @yondaimesin
    you should definitely add fried shallots to the make ahead list! they are an amazing garnish for anything savory
  • @theblackrose3130
    A little tip for others, to add smoky flavour to your stir-fry if you don't have a butane torch. Do not be afraid to use liquid smoke in your sauce, liquid smoke is literally condensed smoke it's not "fake" smoke flavour. It's a great ingredient I feel gets underused.
  • @ChristopherStone
    As an adult with ADHD and the only one who cooks in the house I so appreciate the structure of this framework. It clicks so perfectly with the way I build structure in my life.
  • @leam1978
    as someone who learned this by experimentation, i absolutely endorse how lifechanging cooking stir fry has been. being able to create food from whatever is lying around is an incredible survival skill.
  • @bobhalford
    Great video. I'd love to see more stuff involving the freezer and 5 ingredients. I bet there are a lot of people (like me) who want to be able to cook great meals with the least amount of time and effort.
  • @jaclyniicole
    I would love to see a video about sauces that can be stored in the fridge for long periods of time. I tend to make eel sauce (which I would think lasts forever) but always get scared it's going to go bad and throw it out after a week.
