@ZacharyBittner 4 года назад

Honestly, I never found his "super tasting" ability all that impressive. They put food down in front of him, like a black garlic shitaki Ribollita. The black garlic and shitaki is easy to recognitize. Then he just uses the common ingredients of Ribollita. leftover bread, cannellini beans, kale, cabbage etc. And then he just tries to figure out the details of the Ribollita. Like does it have chard or just celery? And usually he gets v those details wrong. Sooo... I don't think he is so much a super taster as much as he just uses process of elimination.

@stephennetu 4 года назад

This was kind of eye-opening. Look at that ingredient list. At the end of the day, is there even a reason to add something to the dish? I love what Chris said at the end there... "If you're not truly tasting it, maybe it's better just to leave it out." I realize he might have been saying that about what he added, but I think it's truer still for the original recipe...ha!

@DumbestDumbFool 4 года назад

often, these little added ingredient is what makes the dish unique. It won't make it better by a lot, and probably no one would be able to guess there's kiwi, mint and sesame seeds in the dish, but that is where complex is. It's not fun to be in morocco shoes tho, it'll be too hard to pick up these hints of flavor, as it's over powered by others. I don't even read all the ingredients, but that's the charm of complex list. It's hard to replicate, and hard to read, but ultimately, it made the dish different even if it's only a hair different. Also delayne is mean, picking this recipe to test morocco

@snowinjuly4872 4 года назад

delani taylor Sorta. Like, Chris can tell when something is missing, or the flavor isn't quite right, but in actuality, you can leave out a lot of ingredients in long recipe lists and get something closeish. In my culture (im sichuanese) you'll often find multiple versions of a very classic recipe that differ ever so slightly with technique and ingredients but turn out super similarly, but if you know enough you can taste and see differences that nail down where things are different.

@recoil53 4 года назад

@@snowinjuly4872 Yes, some stuff has subtle effects. Whether or not you find it important is individual taste. And then some ingredient combinations can have similar flavors to other ingredient combinations. That's why stripped down recipes do so well - just a few ingredients, about 80% correct on flavors, even if it's just hitting the strong ones.
