Your favourite cooking channels/youtubers?

Hi What are your favourite cooking youtubers? on the other hand do you have some youtubers you despise or don’t understand the appeal of? I’ll be first:

following guys normalized experimenting with food for me:

it’s Joshua Weissman i don’t like, dunno, dude’s over the top, also i cannot fathom how he has over 8M subs

TagMeInSkipIGotThis,

Here’s a couple that haven’t been mentioned yet:

  • Chinese Cooking Demystified - probably the place to start as a westerner looking to learn more about the wide array of cuisines in China.
  • Chef Wang - not always subtitled, but an incredible source for technique and recipes you wont find elsewhere.
  • Sip and Feast - for a good base of NY / Italian-American food.
  • Pasta Grammar - for a very Italian take on Italian food!
Treczoks,

Sebastian Lege. You probably won’t understand him (he’s German), but he is both a cook and an industrial food designer. So he “cooks” things you can buy in the supermarket and shows the ingredients that industry uses for this. Like using sulphuric acid, acetic acid, and isopentyl alcohol to make a banana milk…

Foodwishes - The guy is a culinary instructor so his way of teaching recipes tends to stick, also theyre fun. I use his recipes a lot.

Cooking with Dog - Japanese recipes, hosted by Francis the poodle and his human chef.

Matty Matheson - he is a very loud and kinda manic Canadian chef

Chinese Cooking Demystified is one of the best English language Chinese cooking channels. They do a great job explaining how to make Chinese food and also provide alternative ingredients

You Suck at Cooking is more like a cooking-themed entertainment channel than an actual cooking channel, but its a lot of fun. I think he makes cooking very approachable to people who have never set foot in a kitchen.

storm_koala,

Pick Up Limes - they make tasty plant-based recipes while thinking about the nutritious aspect. They have a Youtube channel but you can also check the recipes on their website.

People have already named some of the ones I watch so I’ll add Not Another Cooking Show to the mix.

Easy to follow recipes often focusing on stuff the guy used to makewhen he worked a food truck in NYC as well as italian american cooking. Guy is a new yorker with a laid back presentation style that I dig.

Townsends is another neat one. He does a lot of 18th century recipes and in general just like museum village 18th century historian stuff.

averyminya,

For cocktails How to Drink is really fun - totally unconventional and he gets hilariously tipsy. The dude also seems like a sweetie! But when you said experimenting he was my first immediate thought.

The ANTI-CHEF also deserves a shoutout, if only for daring to try to finish a Julia Child’s cookbook. Again, not a very conventional chef… if I recall correctly in fact this YouTube channel may be how he is learning to cook… :D

I really enjoy Glen and Friends Cooking. It’s a good mix of historical recipes, everyday recipes and methods, and cocktails. His aviation channel is great, too.

In no particular order, and probably forgetting a bunch:

Claire Saffitz - https://www.youtube.com/@CSaffitz
Love Claire, been following her since the Bon Appétit days, she is just amazing.

Emmy from Emmymade - https://www.youtube.com/@emmymade
Funny, adorable, makes lots of weird stuff.

Ann Reardon (How To Cook That) - https://www.youtube.com/@HowToCookThat
Not exclusively a cooking channel, but everyone should be subbed.

Nate From the Internet - https://www.youtube.com/@NFTI
Formerly of TKOR/The King of Random, not a cooking channel but he does food comparison videos and the like.

The Kitchen & Jorn Show - https://www.youtube.com/@kitchenandjorn
Kristin and Jen (formerly of Buzzfeed) typically doing cooking competitions (and food taste tests)

Don't Panic Pantry - https://www.youtube.com/@dontpanicpantry
Featuring Noah Galuten, chef and author and a former host on the youtube channel Tasted (if anyone's memories go back that far lol).

Jun's Kitchen - https://www.youtube.com/@JunsKitchen/
Jun's (from Rachel & Jun) channel where he mostly makes different treats and meals for their kitties. Doesn't post often.

Ordinary Sausage - https://www.youtube.com/@OrdinarySausage
Nothing educational lol

Travel Thirsty - https://www.youtube.com/@TravelThirstyBlog
A non-narrated vlog showing up close and personal the creation of mostly Asian dishes from start to finish in various restaurants and countries. CW: Live sea animals (fish, crustaceans, and the like) are frequently dispatched during videos, viewer discretion is advised for those who do not wish to view it.

Masaru - https://www.youtube.com/@masaru.9268
Masaru, a free dive fisherman and new business owner details his life and adventures in Japan from catching, cleaning, and eating all sorts of different sea life he mostly catches himself. Videos are subtitled perfectly and he puts a lot of production value. Also occasionally does random challenge video series.

B. Dylan Hollis - https://www.youtube.com/@BDylanHollis
Cause we've all seen the Tiktok's by now, and he's genuinely hilarious.

Won't bother adding any I don't like cause if I don't like em, I forget em lol.

I love Emmymade. She seems so nice and upbeat in her videos and she covers so many recipes, most of which are very doable or at least weird and interesting(like her hard times stuff). I also like how normal she is in the kitchen. At this point I dont know how much of it is manufactured to make her more “relatable” and how much are organic kitchen errors but it gives her this very normal enthusiastic person just cooking vibe that I dig.

Ann Reardon is another fave. From her tiny miniature(as in model miniature) house with functional kitchen, to her genuinely good looking recipes, to her popular debunking series. Everything she creates is well researched and well tested.
