Hello, native Mexican here. FYI, not sure if it's mislabeled, but the chilis you had as "chile de arbol" were not those. Those were Chile Puya a hotter, smaller version of guajillo. Arbol is brighter red, thinner, hotter, and smaller. In any case, this recipe looks FRICKIN' amazing! A couple of drops of fresh lime in the consomme when served is the finishing touch. Will try today this today!. And LOVED to conversion of a chicken farm to a mushroom farm. ❤🐔
Your chicken farm to mushroom farm activism is truly an amazing idea. People love to say vegans hate farmers but that's not the case. We love farmers and want to show them and encourage them and support them in converting to a more compassionate and possibly more profitable way.
Derek! All I have to say is.. wow!! I'm an aspiring plant based chef looking to take it up a notch and get professional, and your channel is literally amazing! All in one. Professionalism. Expertise. Creativity. Culinary Revolution. Innovation. Cruelty Free. Tradition. Health. Love in every single food you make. Wow! I see all of these chefs that call themselves the 'greatest' and all they know how to cook is either a filet mignon or lobster, always with the same same dishes over and over again on each and every menu. I'm looking for chefs that are innovative and ACTUALLY creative WITH FOOD (not animals) to inspire me. And I think I've found the right guy. You are revolutionising the culinary industry, one video at a time. And for that, I would like to say a big big thank you! Keep this going, Chef Sarno!
On the doco, We are what we eat, they showed a guy that was a chicken farmer. One morning he woke up, and said, I can't do this anymore. So he was left with huge empty barns. And ended up putting containers in them and grew mushrooms.
Derek - I wanna be like you when I grow up..... Probably not gonna happen I'm already 65 so I'll just enjoy your expertise and videos. Keep them coming. I appreciate that you share your recipesfor free.
I recently moved to the Irish countryside and met the most amazing mushroom farm, where I finally got some Lions mane. Used the techniques I learned from you and from the pictures i took everyone thought it was meat. It was far tastier! Thank you so much for the inspiration and for driving such a change for a more sustainable world.
I agree! Where I live if you want a vegetarian or vegan taco or burrito you get some lettuce, tomato and onion. That is IT! No lentils or mushrooms .....I won't give them my business.
No doubt. Derek definitely makes me want to open a restaurant. I make some of his meal for non vegans to just try and they loved it . This birria was one of them.
I’m allergic to oyster mushrooms, please please!!! I’m begging you to try this in a future video, it’s freakin’ awesome: get dried shitake mushrooms from an asian supermarket, soak in boiling water, remove stems & blitz in a food processor: best “mince” you’ll ever eat, better than lentils, better than ALL of the plant based-crumbles, MUCH better than fresh crimini/ portobello/chestnut/button mushrooms. Serious “meaty” texture & no spores to defeat my immune system. 👊🏻💨💨 Much love Derek 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻💚
I like shitake mushrooms but they have a strong flavor. If I was making a vegan birria I might instead opt for jackfruit to give it that meaty beef texture.
@@danmur2797 Did you ever try the jackfruit? I don't care for mushrooms, and I was also thinking that maybe jackfruit would be a good sub. Even tofu might be a decent sub since that consomme looks like the star of the show to me.
It looks delicious 😮. I'm vegetarian, so many Hispanics (I'm Hispanic ) couldn't understand how i could live without meat. Lol, I really love my pinto beans and rice.
Its actually easy, especially if Mexican to be vegetarian. Hispanics also eat lentils, garbanzos/chickpeas, fava beans, green beans, etc. In Mexico they are usually cooked like pasta soups with a tomato, garlic, onion broth. And corn tortillas are also vegan. Cactus or nopal salad is super delicious. And soy chorizo was popular in Mexico before it was in the U.S. It might depend on what Hispanic country one comes from though. I know Argentines love their meat.
This man has engaged God-mode. All you can do is stand back, admire and be envious. It’s gone 1am and now I am starving hungry. Where are the restaurants serving this food? Take my money already. Keep up the great work that man. 👏👏👏👍
Was just thinking what a mistake it was that I was watching this while I was eating a few crackers and peanut butter for lunch... GAH... Dinner cannot come soon enough!
I can’t get enough of these recipes! Out here in Arizona, birria tacos are in in nearly every Mexican restaurant, but I’ve never seen them look like these. I can’t get over how much the oysters look like meat! 👏👩🍳💋🥇
Wow, I must say that you really took this traditional birria dish to the next level with the mushrooms. I am definitely going to try all these recipes. Thank you. 😊
@@DerekSarnoChef Omg I cannot wait to make this!! Q: My hubby hates mushrooms (so sad for him), I love them. Do you think this would work well with tofu as well? For sure shredded I can see working in some way. What about freezing the tofu 1st and then doing the braising technique? Absolutely ❤❤❤ your vibe, your videos, and your Frankie 😍
I just found this page this morning and i cannot look away. I am trying to start a new, healthier chapter in my life. I've recently lost another 20 lbs, but I have a loooooooot more to go and I love meat; so whenever I come across videos that show how to use meat substitutes like mushrooms and jackfruit, I get excited. This page is awesome and I am excited to learn and apply. 🙌🏾🔥🔥🔥 "It SLAPS!" LOL
Thank you so much for these beautiful recipes. I made the birria sauce and tacos for supper tonight. At first, I was skeptical about all of the work behind the birria sauce but, after putting it in the oven for 45 minutes, it was a game changer for flavor! Love your channel and look forward to cooking more of your amazing recipes in future.
Not fair!!!!! Thank you for caring about and loving food so much!!!! What a labour of love, i can't even really see the labour any more. So many steps, so much patience and attention to bring so much dimension and joy and compliment and love. I'm drooling...and that sucks because where i live i can't get many of the ingredients or i would be making this right now!!!!!!
It made my day seeing that place of misery turned into a mushroom farm. You do such amazing things in that kitchen. All the little extras just take it next level.
Derek your dishes incredible! The ones I’ve tried are truly delicious. And it’s amazing that you turned your chicken farm into a mushroom farm. I just started a Lyons Mane crop in my kitchen! All because of you, I started growing mushrooms!
5 Star AMAZING meals indeed! There was a taqueria here that sold tacos al pastor and Birria, when I used to pass by the smell of the chilis and the spices made my mouth water, but that birria was off limits for me, either lamb, goat or mutton. Thanks to you Derek I can now make my own homemade birria with setas (oyster mushrooms). Buen provecho, 👍and greetings👋from central Mexico.🤠
I never thought my mouth would water so much over mushroooms. Recipes #3, #4, and #5 really had me going..... I've got to find those mushrooms here in the US. YUM!!!!! P.S. I adore Frankie.
I love the way you turn ordinary mushrooms into restaurant-quality dishes with everyday ingredients!! Keep up the excellent work and comment without mentioning Frankie would just be wrong. Love Frankie cameos!!
I've been vegan for almost 10 years now and I really like the way you approached these meals since they really packed a lot of protein which is hard to come by. Also beautiful inspirations for my own cooking. May need to grow some chilis this year, since we don't get these kinds here. A small suggestion would be that you could easily make your own Mayo too. Works really well with unsweetened soy milk, vinegar and oil. Cheers!
It's a rainy day here in Qld Australia, and I am loving watching your videos Derek.. I love seeing Frankie in the kitchen with you.. She's adorable .. you're both gorgeous... Thankyou for sharing so many amazing dishes, tips and your enthusiasm is just what's needed when I can't decide what to cook... ❤️
Dude, you're literally a life saver. My siblings and I have decided to go vegetarian, (working our way to being fully vegan) and sometimes my brother thinks he won't be able to do it because "Meat is everywhere. You can't avoid it." But you clearly show how to make tacos, burgers, and fried stuff, without ever using meat or animal products. Thank youuu!
Thank you SOOOO MUCH for these recipes! What a cute Pup! LITTLE Miss Frankie♥️♥️♥️♥️🥰🥰🥰🥰 And also neat that you even talk to Siri kindly, calling Siri “sweetheart”. You’re awesome! So neat about the mushroom farm! Thank you for all the recipes!
🤣🤣OMG that was spot on for "Andy" - I have posted to his shorts that he needs more plant based dishes in his life! But I think I relate more to your idea of "hey babe" as I talk to my dogs way more then humans. This all looks amazing... as per usual with you. Maybe you can do a cook off with Andy and you can do anything he does... but vegan! Ok back to the show!
Wowww!!! I love the re-using the same base recipe for multiple dishes. Makes it so easy to cook one thing to last multiple meals for the week - love this channel 🔥🔥
Lifts my heart to see Miss Frankie living her best life! Great food and ethos Derek - we need a major, global chain of delicious, plant-based takeout fast food. I think the world is ready. And as the saying goes, 'Cometh the hour, Cometh the man'. How about it Derek?
thank you so much for creating cool vegan recipes, i've never been more jealous of someone eating than seeing you bite into that first taco, i really got to recreate all of this some time!!
Woaaaaa dude, I've been in hospital for a few days, currently fasting for 27hs n this was one the hardest salivations ever 🤤 terrific recipes man, keep em coming 🙌
Everything looks soooooo delicious! I found the video dizzingly fast to watch. However, I was very pleased to see all of the instructions included in the description. Thanks! I think I will rewatch at 50% speed before I attempt one of the recipes. 😁
I so much love how you love Francesca. All my dogs have been treated the way you treat your beloved Francesca I can’t love a spoiled him enough, and I love being nude your channel in watching you cook you’re the best thing in my life!
Your recipes and videos legitmately bring massive amounts of joy and enjoyment into my life. It's amazing how wholesome an experience cooking can be and how much it can lift your spirits or just make you glad to be alive (some times that's not an easy feat!) Have also shared many of your meals with friends and family and its a joy seeing them enjoy them as much as we do. Thanks heaps!
This video was SO ENTERTAINING! You are incredibly talented. Thank you for sharing your magic with us! Every single dish looks delicious. We definitely need more mushroom farms! I also want to share that. I made a simple tomato and cucumber salad for a potluck today, and I almost didn’t clean up while I was preparing it because I was in a hurry. But then I remembered how you clean as you go, and that’s what I did. Thanks, Derek!
After watching an hour of tv with BK commercials every 10 minutes, I bring up one of your videos. It keeps my life in line with my ethical beliefs. Thank you for being an inspiration and councilor.
Hello, I just found your channel, I love how you speed up, chopping the onions so many channels show the tedious preparation in real time and we haven’t always the time for this. I love you and I love your dog and I think I will love your food
ABSOLUTELY LOOOVE your channel! 😍You are so inspirational! I’ve been wanting to become up a vegetarian for a long time but you are inspiring me really take the big leap and actually do it! I love how “mushroom forward” you are and I love mushrooms so I know I can still have delicious and healthy meals now! Also, I absolutely love your dog! lol she’s so cute and I love that you treat her like gold! Just can’t say enough good things about you and your channel and I only wish more of your products were available here in Ontario Canada! Keep being amazing!! Btw, I was watching a documentary recently.. I forget which one but it might be called You Are What You Eat.. and there you were! I was so excited I told my boyfriend look that’s my favourite vegan RU-vidr!! Hopefully your project with turning the chicken farm into a mushroom farming business really takes off. I think it’s incredible.!! ❤
Thanks for watching. That's my brother in the doc (i'm in the UK) but those great mushroom scenes were from here. :) always appreciate people that eat more plants. thank you
I wish that I lived near a restaurant that created these kinds of meals. But, since I don’t, I will make them at home! I will make each one of these. Number 1 and 3 first.
If my wife picks up the mushrooms this afternoon we are making the birria tacos this weekend, they look so good. Will have to report back after we make them!
Gawwddd! That all looks so Amazing! I adore mushrooms! And lentils! And garlicky greens! I have never ever seen mushrooms made in this way, but what wonderful meaty recipes! 🤩🤩🤩
