June From Budget Eats Shows Us Her Home Kitchen In NYC | Delish 

Vote for "Budget Eats" now: vote.webbyawards.com/PublicVoting#/2021/video/video-series-channels/food-drink 💛

So apparently we now need an episode where June has to use the things in her freezer/high cupboard that have been around for a while.

This kitchen has definitely become some sort of character in this channel.

i love this because its so real and relatable. Tired of all those youtubers with pristine white shelves of just 3 jars (all same design of course) meticulously placed in a straight line for the nuts, seeds and some other superfood of the season!

anyone else secretly hope that we keep seeing this kitchen even after corona?

Anyone else want June to start a new cooking series called "The cabinet over the Fridge"?

This kitchen makes me reminisce the days when my mom would ask me to get something from the fridge and I’d have to open 5 yogurt containers before I figured out which one had what she needed 😂

EVERY VIDEO WITH JUNE IS A TREASURE!

I DON'T WANT NEW POTS, Y'ALL, I LIKE MY CHEAP POTS!

What if you did an episode where the intention is to not go shopping but instead clean out the fridge and pantry items that are going ignored?

Just when you think you couldn’t possibly love her even more she tells you she has a drawer filled with cat/dog treats despite not having pets 🤯🥰♥️

June is so adored and loved by people she will never meet. How beautiful is that.

6:00. The two colored bags are “Furikake” (a kind of rice seasonings), which we use when we are bored to eat just normal rice. The blue one is “sesame and salt”, which is one of the most popular furikake in Japan, and the second one is “umeboshi (salty plum)” one. No idea about the first two transparent bags...

"who's the coolest person you cook for?" "Myself obviously..." This is the best thing right here don't let other people dictate what you're going to cook, who you going to cook for: cook because you want to cook and like what you cook because you cooked it, right?

“It makes me feel like I’m about to die, in a very very bad way, not in a calm and soothing way-“ June, WHAT?

One of those the second one was long pepper commonly used in india to make basel pepper tea concoction called 'kaadhaa' for someone sick. Can be used in chai too during winters. Or even indian style oats. Use it whole mainly it may drive you mental if you break it or grind it. Its generally 10x spicy than small round pepper.

June’s HAIR just keeps getting better and better every video

Already voted and I have to accept some of the credit since I have watched every budget eats maybe ten times and that is a very conservative estimate. It brings me joy in these stressing times

The spoon/gable thingy Aaron gifted you, I saw it for the first time watching your videos and I thought how cool is it. After a severe stroke my dad was left with a paralyzed right arm so eating certain things became a bit of a struggle with limited mobility. I saw yours, searched the good old Amazon, found one and ordered it. He absolutely loves it. Makes eating way less frustrated and a better experience for him. So, besides all the cool recipes you do, this one really was a game changer for us. Thank you.

As an Indonesian, I'm so happy to see Aaron getting excited for ayam sambal ijo, because, same!

I love the clip where Aaron is randomly standing in the kitchen. It made me laugh so hard. 😂🤣

Best of luck June, you deserve to be awarded.

I feel like everything that’s touched by June is so well loved and cherished, whether it be her cutlery, her spices, her timer... it must feel so good to be appreciated and loved by June 🥰

I need a “Season with June” video series where she literally just explains spices and what to use em for cause i am in a seasoning salt + cayanne peper household and thats it 🙃 would love to know more and get outside the comfort zones

June: biz idea - put together a box of your twenty essentials for spices / seeds and sell them to us 💜

June! Love your NYC kitchen in all its NYC-ness! It has definitely added a layer of character and personality to your videos - you look so at-home and at ease, that I also end up feeling the same. I have binge/comfort-watched all of your videos during Covid. Please don't leave us and go back to a workplace kitchen! June and her kitchen are just what I want to see. I can't explain myself beyond that.

You are such a great person, love your ways of problem solving and how you make every ingredient last so long. It's crazy, I hope you win that award!

Hey June, I recently started watching budget eats( well not recent, since the 2nd episode came out) and i must say i love they show. You put in so much effort and your creativity is unmatched. Being an Indian, living in India I simply loveeee when you try indian dishes and the spices and even mithai (sweets) . Also i must say Aaron’s spice level literally makes me feel he must have been an indian in his past life. All Indians love their spice. I have a special request and i hope you and the delish team can work it out. I feel indian food is veryy underrated in the US and not widely recognised in the countries, cultures as well. I want/ would love to see a week ( or at least a day full of different indian recipes, part 2-3 can follow up) of budget Indian meals with all of the common breakfast, lunch dinner foods and drinks,sweets that most people dont know about. And using ingredients like ghee, and the variety of masala, spices . This would really mean a lot . Really wish it happens.

June needs a video of cooking using the random items in above the fridge cabinet items.

What I really like about June and her kitchen is seeing how well loved the items are. Like how she repurposes containers and creatively recycles other equipment. How the pots and pans are very well used This kitchen feels so relatable, so homey and non-intimidating at all.

the soursop, i blend it with water, sometimes add a little bit of sugar and drink it as "AGUA FRESCAS" it means refreshing water . Sour sop has a lot health benefits and thats why i drink it.

The first one of the transparent bags is cubeb pepper or tailed pepper (round with a stem), the other is long pepper. Both were also used in European medieval cooking.

“I didn’t want to finish this without offering you some.” I didn’t know selflessness like this existed and I’m inspired.

i love how close to home and relatable June’s kitchen is. random containers that aren’t what they’re supposed to be filled with, pots and pans that have been cooked on hundreds of times and just the general look of it is so... normal. You see really a lot of intricate and fancy kitchens on youtube where everything is so organized and perfect, and its great to oogle and envy on, but its such a comfort to see June’s kitchen and how great food is cooked in the most not so perfect kitchens.

This video is proof that y’all need to pay June more...

I just love the way you can describe food and your feelings

I watch every June video multiple times religiously 😂 it’s my morning routine because your voice makes me want to fight my depression and get up and cook even if it’s not perfect, AND it’s also my wind-down routine because your voice makes me feel calm and relaxed and like everything’s going to be okay. I haven’t voted for any of these award thingies in close to a decade but for you June!!!! I voted!!!! 💖

June's voice is so comforting! I could listen to her talk about random spoons she's collected all day long!

It's real, your kitchen is real. We all like real. Thank you June.

I would love to see an episode where June makes meals only from ingredients already in her kitchen

Confession: in one of the MANY MANY rewatches of Budget Eats, I was finally able to see the brand of your Spork - Snow Peak, for anyone else who is curious, and may or may not have ordered one of my own off of Amazon, inspired of course, by June.

I've been cursing my can opener for YEARS every time I use it, it's so awful. It's one of those things that I never think about except when I actually use it, which is why I haven't replaced it yet. So when June says that Oxo makes the best can opener in the world, I pause the video, go to amazon, and buy it. And yes, I paused the video to get a good look and made sure I was getting the right one. Thanks June! (I'll be voting of course :)

I think if this appeared on Subtle Asian Traits on Facebook, everyone would celebrate and comment on how June's a true "Asian" for recycling containers as "Tupperware" (yes I know, stereotype) and how it is OG thriftiness/environmental friendliness. Thanks, June and the Delish team for indulging us once more.

You can blend the cashews with some water, and use it to finish curries. Kinda like cream.

Reminds me of my own kitchen and Indian home kitchens! I have internalized my trauma of opening delicious jam jars only to find soaking prunes and opening yogurt to find urad dal

June, and Sohla. I don't need anyone else to teach me how to have fun in the kitchen, on my budget. Love you, June! Voted already, too. My house is about twice the size of your kitchen (182 sf), and half of it is kitchen/pantry. lol Thanks for the tour.

The one longish black thing is called 'peepli' or long pepper, it has medicinal properties. Generally used in broths. It is warm and peppery and a peculiar aftertaste to it.

hey June, I'm from Peru and we have maca for breakfast as a hot drink(maca con leche ,quinoa drink its very popular) , its usually sold in street carts with avocado sandwich's, I also tried it in cookies, it has a nutty earthy flavor or in smoothies with a little cacao powder.

I would love a spice and sauce series from June. Even her "most used spices" i have never used. Would love to add more flavours to my cooking!

June, you are so adorable. Congratulations on your nomination. I enjoy your videos so much! 😉

Thats a NYC kitchen baby, keep it post Rona. Love the noise outside. Thats us baby, delicious, noisy, creative, gorgeously chaotic. Love you June! Queens baby! 💖

as a fellow person who has autoimmune issues a series on helping your immune system via foods would be appreciated.

Wait, FRIED CHICKEN FURIKAKE?!? I NEED THIS IN MY LIFE.

The maca powder is excellent in an “energy bite.” In your Vitamix, put equal parts nuts and pitted dates and waz until they’re a toffee-like paste. Add maca, water if needed, maybe salt if the nuts weren’t salted. Scoop out the mix with a cookie baller or ice cream scoop. Some people roll the dough balls in coconut or chocolate chips, etc. I just like cashew, dates and maca. It’s very caramelly. Refrigerate. Eat when you’re hangry to take the edge off. Also, make sure you’re getting enough zinc to calm the eczema and try Atopalm cream, if you haven’t.

I am so glad the rest of your life has been kept private. I say this because you deserve privacy and parts of you that still belongs to you. We are fans and should never have access to all of you! You are a rock star! Love your energy that is visible on-screen, and I wish you continued success.

I am so glad to see someone who has the same ideals and values as me (and many of younger Americans!) represented. She is a great inspiration to be a better human and to be a better community member! Thank you June!

I don't know what it is, I can't pinpoint it, but you are sooo adorable. I don't know if it is the way you stay serious while saying the most surprising things, but you are . I find you incredibly funny, serious, surprising and adorable.

man, june’s brain has a completely different relationship with food than I could ever imagine having, saving & resourcefulness & creativity & spontaneity and I could watch her forever!

Please make a budget eats video with the stuff above the fridge. They can be "free" items plus say $10.

The blue bag ar 5:58 is ごま塩(gomashio) - it's toasted sesame salt :) Great on rice or in onigiri rice!

She needs to see the comments about getting you a raise!! Lolol. You are the best.

I’m sooooo glad you answered the clean stove question. I’ve always wondered.

All the usual bit and pieces of a creative life. Best categorized in the mind. Live it! Love the Aaron interlude lol

I voted for budget eats . June, your videos fill me with joy! You are so relatable, Take care , hugs to you!

I could watch June all day!! Y’all need to get her some good pots

One of the mystery spices was "long peppercorn" and is like a more intense black peppercorn. I also have a giant old bag of maca that I don't know what to do with!

More of that delicious June content that we crave

You inspire me to cook more, yet I fail everytime lol. My husband is a real trooper for trying all my concoctions !

I'm a fan of Harney teas too 😍

The packets with Japanese writing were: ごましお　（胡麻塩） -- Sesame (seed) salt. うめ　（梅）　ふりかけ -- Plum Furikake. I couldn't read it all, but if you link me a still I can translate more. Both are useful as toppings or mix-ins to rice. Not sure on the clear baggies.

It is impossible not to love June. Prove me wrong!

I've never willingly signed up to vote for something so fast, JUNE DESERVES THIS 💕💖

I have an economy studio. That means my kitchenette is in my living room. Everything smells like garlic, so much garlic.

You have a whole wall to do narrow shelves or pegboard hooks and shelves. Small but functional kitchen. 😀

June makes me feel grounded and calm

I like this kitchen a lot because it’s similar to what I have. I don’t have a ton of countertop space to prep, no big butcher blocks and kitchen island for food prep, just a sliver of space. I won’t say that the other fancier kitchens aren’t real because they are but this just hits closer to home and in a way encourages me to tru despite not having every fancy equipment out there.

INDONESIAN squadddd! Glad you like Indonesian food June!

The spork is the gift that keeps on giving!

I absolutely love you June! Just the sweetest, most thoughtful and authentic lady ever! I just adore you 🙂

Spleenies fam!🥰🥰🥰

that refrigerator, tho... i'm not even talking about the contents.. that refrigerator is the dream.

I love that June admits she stole something. That made me laugh for some reason.

I love the engrained Asian tendencies in June's kitchen. 👍👍👍👍👍

THE SRIRACHA YOU REALLY LIKE IS FROM THAILAND! fun fact: that is where sriracha originated, and this brand is the OG sriracha... not the rooster brand that is vietnamese

June, you are a magnetic person who described even that most horrendous food (my opinion) in such a delish way! 😊😋🤣

The kitchen is your best friend when it comes to cooking

JUNE! I'm so happy for you! I watch all of your videos and always have them playing when I'm doing other things. You deserve this nomination! Good luck!!

I think both of the Japanese spice packets you showed are rice seasonings! The blue packet says sesame salt and the red packet is a pickled plum based furikake!

Favorite RU-vid. You’ve helped show that you don’t need a large kitchen to cook really wonderful meals. New meaning to home cooking. And I’m still rooting for a pescatarian diet budget eats, a gluten free budget eats and maybe a mystery box challenge from Aaron?

I love June’s “new”? hairstyle. I haven’t watched in awhile. The rocker cut with the blond on top Is amazing!

June gushing over her spork is everything ❤️

I honestly didn't think I could relate to June more....and then she pulled out the spoons and now I would like to marry her...sorry Aaron :p

Love the energy she exudes

What a jewel June is! I love her videos. This just proves you can cook in any kitchen - no excuses!!

As a person who also lives in a small apartment, that's a nice kitchen and I am especially jealous of that fridge.

i like how genuine June's kitchen is 😘

״oh my god, I don’t read any of my books” I felt that

OMG! So happy to know that you guys love Indonesian food! As an Indonesian, I think our food deserves more recognition

The dried shiitake, bean curd & kelp in the cabinet above the fridge are actually some of my daily vegan essentials, always within reach. 😄

Thank you for the tour, June! And for all the videos you've put out over the past year. I'm sure it's frustrating at times, but these videos truly have been such a pure source of joy. Here's hoping you win the award!
