Folks like Stephen have taken my cooking to unheard of heights. I had always been a "good cook", being the chief cook in my family after mom went back to work and making all the good stuff she taught me. I used to watch PBS and their cooks with my mom in the decade before she passed. My first cookbook that I bought for ME was from one of those PBS cooks. And now, Stephen and others have shown me not only how to make super recipes, but how to make my OWN recipes. Even now, with bariatric surgery and needing to plan several super small meals a day, Stephen's tag line reads like Truth. Go Feed Yourself. Because that means you're not just shoving some random stuff in your mouth. You're feeding your SOUL when you make the kitchen your own. Congrats on one million subscribers. Here's to the next 10 million.
A super underrated thing you do that I love is that when you cut veggies or anything you dont just do it super fast, you obviously can but that super small attention to being able to see your knife movement slower is super nice to be able to learn and see how the knife should flow.
Glad to be along for the ride. Side note/cool thing is, I work with a developmentally disabled adult, and he loves watching your show with me. We haven't tried every recipe together, but we've tried several. It's always a joy watching together, and then making the food together solidifies the awesomeness. He really loves the video where you're working with your brother doing the "Grandma's Sunday Dinner" thing.. anyway, best of luck, may the numbers multiply further from here!
Stephen, this channel has elevated my cooking game beyond belief. At least 6 of your recipes are in my regular rotation. I feel like a chef when I make these dishes. Congratulations on 1 million…you richly deserve it.
I’ve been watching you since 80k subscribers and I remember one of the first videos that I came across was your Christmas charcuterie board! Congrats on 1 million subscribers 🎉
BUON ANNO 2023 AUGURI A TE CARISSIMO STEPHEN , thank you so much for sharing all your italian recipe with me and us. A presto Tony from Paris France 🗼 ☀️
Congratulations Stephen! I didn't join you five years ago but I have taken up making the four classic Roman pasta dishes a lot more and with your help I ended up with a killer Prime Rib roast which found its way into a couple of awesome grilled cheese sandwiches. You, your recipes and your show have become talking points in my home and I appreciate it.
MAN ! Such QUALITY instructions! you explain prep technique, not just listing off ingredients, you explain it for beginners yet show how is can be done advanced! One note, small thing, really. Depending on how you prep your garlic, it will have different cook times. People never seem to notice this and it can really mess with a dish! If someone watching this decided to cute their garlic small, it'd be burned and gone when the mean finished. Small thing I know, but many people have one way they prep garlic and they will always use that method
This is essentially Lentils with Spaetzle, the national dish of the Southern-German region of Baden-Wuerttemberg, with an Italian touch (White wine, parmegiano, tomato, different pasta). Well, we're only separated by the alps, so makes sense that the cuisines are similar. Thanks for this version!
Fine, the first thing i tought it's not very italian but that kind of dishes are very common here in Argentina. I supposed that it was like a traditional spanish dish with the pasta, cos pasta is cheap, so it's possible to mask the need of meet...
@@javieralejandroamorosi8639interesting parallel, will look for it when I visit Argentina. It used to be a poor man's dish here in Germany, decent amount of protein and lots of carbs so you could work hard, especially in farming. Also, the soil is very rocky and not very rich, so lentils were the best use for it. Nowadays it's extremely popular
You helped me learn to cook when my mother got sick two years ago, and I gained a love for cooking through it. I always look forward to your videos. Thank you for everything, Steve.
Hell yeah congrats on 1 million! Been watching for years and always loved how you prepare Italian American meals. My mom and I have bonded over your videos for years. Thanks my man!
Congratulations Stephen on earning 1 million subscribers! It's no surprise really. Your channel is absolute quality and I've been following you since your Short Rib Grilled Cheese video made my mouth water. My wife and I just finished heaping bowls of this soup and it's easily going to become in regular rotation in our home. Be well.
Wellsir, it took you a little longer than my other favorite cooking channel Chef Jean Pierre but you've both hit a million around the same time, you both deserve it, you've both helped me level up my cooking for sure. Congratulations on one million subscribers. I'm really glad you're having success with your channel!
I love ya Pisano' you are the best Chef on any station anywhere. Please send me a link to your Sunday dinner w/Nonna that's me Nonna. Lol. Or info fir Sunday dinner, tysm Blessings 🙌
I've wathched 234123 cooking shows for the last 20 years. I can't place it, but i'm always focused on your cooking and really wanting to make it. The way you describe each step with the HOW and WHY is awesome
Congratulations on 1 MILLION subs! You definitely deserve it. I have made several of your recipes and all turned out so delicious! This lucky pasta one-pot dish will be on my list for this week. My friends love that food is my love language.
This is one of my favorite childhood dishes. My mom made it for us all the time, especially on New Years Eve, and I still love it to this day. Thank you for sharing ❤️ 😊
I've been watching your channel since the Chicken cutlet video and the slicing and dicing knife skills videos. Thanks to you, you have helped me both survive the lockdowns & feed my friends & family back when I was in The Philippines studying abroad. I am now back home in the states. Congrats on your 1 million subscribers! From being labeled as the "pasta guy on youtube" to this! Through the years you have taught mad people how to cook including myself. Your success is well deserved! Many blessings, prosperity, and hopefully more videos to come! God bless! 🥳🎊🎉💯🙌
I've been watching this channel since the start and I just knew it was a matter of time before you hit 1M subs. Easily one of the best cooking channels on RU-vid. Congratulations! 🥳🍾
Onya mate, good video. I accidentally cook very similar dishes to this when it's cold in Australia, looking forward to cooking this one up next winter. E ora si mangia!
I've been a follower for long enough to remember when you weren't feeling all too well about life, and my heart is happy to know that 2023 is looking brighter for you! I'm making this tonight even though it's April 29 because it's chilly and raining. Ciao and thank you, Steve...God Bless!
My pot gave out on me recently and burned my stew. I'm definetly getting myself a dutch oven and making this pasta tomorrow! Congrats on a milestone! I am very happy to have found your channel, I've made quite a lot of changes to my cooking thanks to you.
We love you, Steve, and congratulations!!! I made sure I had lentils on New Years' Eve and pray that you and yours continue to enjoy life and continued success!
I watch your videos for inspiration and comfort, and you totally deserved to pass the million subs threshold. Congratz and keep on doing what your doing; you are awesome Stephen!
Congratulations on your 1 million! Fully deserved champ. Been here since 70k and seeing you hit that milestone makes me so proud for you. Every one of your dishes that I've tried has been a hit with the family, they LOVE your recipes. Rock on Stephen!
Stephen! My birthday wish for you came true and you more than deserved it. It's been too many weeks since we've seen you and I'm delighted. I have all the ingredients for this dish except that particular pasta but I'll get that tomorrow and make this dish on the weekend. So glad you're back. See you next week.
Congratulations on hitting a million subs! I jumped on when you were at around 112,000 and I just *knew* this day would come. Many thanks for all your hard work! May 2023 be a great year for you and for the channel.
Steve, this is a nice little recipe with a big hearty payoff! Oh, and as someone who has been a subscriber before you hit 1k, way to go, man, you deserve 1 MM!
Well deserved congratulations on 1 million subscribers! Every weekend I look forward to making one of your dishes and the accolades are totally attributed to you Stephen! And for that, I thank you for making me a better and very happy cook.
Congratulations on the one million subs! You are quite bingeworthy and I am not surprised! Much love to you in this new year Steve! May all your dreams come true! ❤️
Congrats on 1M! Very well deserved! Can't tell you how many of your recipes I have whipped up and they all end up incredible. This newest recipe and the Eggplant Parm are next on my list! Wishing you continued growth in 2023. Cheers!
The harder you work, the luckier you get (as my friend/mentor would say). Already watching this a third time (whilst cooking alongside). Happy for you, bruv; congrats on your first million subs.
Congrats to 1.000.000 subscribers. I follow your channel for over two years now and I can honestly say that you have changed my way of cooking. You got me to appreciate the Italian way of cooking and I learned so much. Thank you Stephen. 😊 And even more luck in 2023. May the lentils work their charm.
So I have to say I made this tonight and wow, what a flavor bomb! I used a 50/50 mix of red and green lentils, and a nice thick cut bacon since I didn't have pancetta. Thank you for the great food!
I’m so happy for You! From a retired teacher You are an excellent teacher. On to two million we are with You! Much blessings to You and Your Family. 4:00 PM
Congratulations on your first million subscriber mark. I feel lucky to have found your channel and you have taught me so much … I am indeed very grateful and really appreciate your efforts … a million thanks!
Stephen, this came out fantastic. In fact, this may bump pasta e fagioli from my #1 soup position--not an easy feat! The flavor was deep and multi-dimensional and the instructions were fool-proof. I think this is like the 15th of your recipes that I've made so far, and they've all been amazing. My grandmothers were from Italy, so I am ridiculously fussy about Italian food. You have the midas touch in the kitchen. Thanks/grazie!
Congrats Stephen!! I'm pretty sure I was here when you cracked 100,000 now congratulations on a million!! Couldn't be more deserved you make amazing content and have taught me how to cook.
