I really like smoked kippers.
Smoked herring boneless and it’s so delicious on crackers or in a recipe.
Delicious 😋
Can you still make the first recipe if you don't have an oven-safe pan? How do I know if the pan is oven safe?
I love watching guru's do stuff like this…🤘🏼💯✔️
I love the additional ideas for canned seafood, some I wouldn't have ever thought about before. I cook with canned seafood often, tuna, salmon, as well as Mackerel for Mackerel cakes and canned oysters for anything from dressing to a cream based oyster stew. I hadn't ever thought of cooking with sardines, even though I love them. I will definitely be experimenting with ideas with sardines. Thanks!
I love these videos! Wish they had a written recipe. I'm making the salad right now and I have no idea how much water and aquafaba to add
I use canned chickpeas and canned tuna a lot. I cook them separately or sometimes together with herbs and spices. They are delicious 😋.
Massive respect for this premise
The trick about this is knowing what to do with the REST of that dozen eggs, pound of bacon, bunch of parsley, carton of sour cream. And remembering to do it.
Except for sardines and anchovies you should stick with fresh ingredients which you should be able to get all year long.
Even the sardines will be better fresh. Canned sardines are OK but fresh sardines are way better.
Sour cream? Americans! Can never grease it up enough, nor pile on enough salt and sugar to make it inedible for normal tastes.
I thought he said his name is "Dan Juicy". Was gonna say that's a convenient name for a chef!
salmon , eggs , and dollops? of sour cream don't go together
Do you know what the can of little sea worms is called in Mexico? I don’t even know how to search for them.
I love your recipes!! I'm pescatarian so for the clams casino toast instead of bacon I used mushrooms and just skipped the microwave step and it was delicious!!! I subbed a few other ingredients for what I had around the house, feta for parm, no fresh herbs so added green onion for color and it tasted still really great. Definitely not really the same recipe after my changes but I liked the creative idea and it helped mix up my typical lunch meals. I appreciate these videos so much 🙂
Seafood is not fish. Salmon is not seafood. It is a fish.
I want to watch you guys throw cans of tuna at Saul like that xD
"Wild Planet" makes the most disgusting canned fish. – I think they pay people to hype their stuff on YouTube
It used to be $12, before Biden, it's now $134.98….inflation.
well done Chef Dan! Thank you for spreading the word about how amazing and healthy canned seafood is. We grew up with the cheap stuff, but now we can get amazing seafood in a can!
The tuna chowder is one of my go to soups. It’s good even without the pasta.
Lol cute bowl dude
I need more videos of michelin star chefs cooking under 10.00 a meal please
Oh man, just discovered this guy today. Great stuff! I'm very excited to buy those ingredients and start cooking !
