In the video below, you can see the men kneading and stretching the noodle dough until it becomes smooth and flexible, perfect for making fresh, thin noodles. The giant mountains of dough are turned into small bricks, which are then pulled until they are thin enough. The noodles go straight to the cauldron in front of which we see a big line of customers waiting for their portions.

The noodles are served with beef stock, vegetables, sauce, and some beef on the side. After having a meal there, James goes to another noodle place where he shows us another typical style of noodles prepared with lamb stock. Watch the video below to see everything.

Junk food is addictive for a reason. It’s simply made to be addictive and to not satisfy your cravings, but to make them bigger. Whether your favorite snack is a bag of chips, a Snickers bar, or a fast-food chain burger, it’s hard to escape the mighty claws of junk food manufacturers. You probably know the feeling of excitement you have when you’re about to bite into your favorite junk food and the immediate pleasure you feel after it. But the pleasure goes away in a matter of seconds and you need to have another bite, and then another.

Junk food tastes amazing because it’s engineered to taste amazing. It’s usually cheap and easily available, but there’s a big problem with it: as its name says, its junk. It doesn’t contain any nutrients your body needs, but mostly consists of calorie-dense sugar and fat that your body just stores while virtually staying hungry for real food. Typical junk foods are candy, salty snacks, baked goods, and soft drinks.

Great Big Story published an interesting video recently in which they introduce us to five unique ways people around the world make coffee. You’ll be surprised how many different ways there are to make coffee differently and you’ll likely want to try them all after watching the video.

From Mexico to Vietnam, Sweden, Turkey, and Ethiopia, we get to learn more about the fascinating differences in the ways people prepare and drink coffee. The Mexican coffee in the video is made with unrefined sugar, cinnamon, and orange rinds. In Sweden, we see a woman enjoying her traditional coffee with cheese instead of milk. And in Turkey, we see a café vendor preparing traditional coffee by heating the pot on the hot sand.

An Ethiopian woman makes a big pot of freshly roasted Jimma coffee beans for her and her neighbors. Vietnam is the home of egg coffee, and we see a crowded coffee shop and people enjoying this delicious beverage.

Did you know that mayonnaise can help you make the most perfect mashed potatoes for the upcoming Thanksgiving dinner and all the other occasions? Adding mayo to your mashed potatoes enables you to make the dish upfront without worrying about its texture.

No Thanksgiving feast is complete without a bowl of mashed potatoes. However, you’re probably used to making them last minute, because you want them to stay warm and fluffy for dinner time. That’s probably the only problem we have with them — that we’re not able to make them upfront.

This year, we learned a trick from Justin Chapple who adds just a bit of mayo to mashed potatoes.

The secret behind this tip is that mayo won’t harden once you leave the mashed potatoes in the fridge. You still need butter, but you will replace a part of it with mayonnaise you probably have in the fridge anyway. We have a feeling this is going to be the most delicious Thanksgiving ever!

If you’re curious about this recipe, you can watch Chapple preparing it in the video below.

Thanksgiving dinner is all about a traditional Thanksgiving menu. There are certain staples that you simply shouldn’t skip, including turkey, cranberry sauce, and gravy. We’re not saying you shouldn’t be creative with your Thanksgiving meal, as it’s always a good idea to make the traditional dishes with a twist. When it comes to stuffing, Carla Music has the perfect recipe for you.

“I think in general with the stuffing, simple is best,” Music says in the video published by Bon Appétit. She explains that the recipe she shares with us was developed by food stylist Victoria Granof, “who, in her own right, is a legend, a living legend, look her up.” 

Music starts by cutting a day-old bread in two, but instead of dicing it into cubes, she tears it into uneven pieces. Even though we call the dish stuffing, she explains, it’s actually a dressing because we don’t actually use it to stuff the bird. 

After drying the bread in the oven for an hour, she proceeds with the recipe.

In the new video published on October 21st, a guy behind the Youtube channel Internet Shaquille explains why burritos you buy outside, even at the cheapest places, always seem to taste better than the ones you make at home. As he says, it’s not about the filling you use – much like a sandwich, you will use the ingredients you like to make your favorite combination. Instead, it’s about the little tricks that you probably didn’t know that will make your homemade burrito taste even better than the one you buy at your favorite burrito place.

The most important thing is to get the right tortillas. They should be big, thin, and stretchy so you can wrap them around the fillings. The next thing to do is to heat the tortilla in a pan. This will help melt the fat contained in the tortilla and enrich the flavor. After wrapping the tortilla, seal the ending by heating it in the pan some more, then flip it so the top gets crispy, too.

The final trick is to wrap the warm burrito in aluminum foil. It will keep your food warm, make it easy to take with you, and reduce the risk of spills. Watch the video below for more details.

“I think in general with the stuffing, simple is best,” Music says in the video published by Bon Appétit. She explains that the recipe she shares with us was developed by food stylist Victoria Granof, “who, in her own right, is a legend, a living legend, look her up.” 

Music starts by cutting a day-old bread in two, but instead of dicing it into cubes, she tears it into uneven pieces. Even though we call the dish stuffing, she explains, it’s actually a dressing because we don’t actually use it to stuff the bird. 

After drying the bread in the oven for an hour, she proceeds with the recipe.

In the new video published on October 21st, a guy behind the Youtube channel Internet Shaquille explains why burritos you buy outside, even at the cheapest places, always seem to taste better than the ones you make at home. As he says, it’s not about the filling you use – much like a sandwich, you will use the ingredients you like to make your favorite combination. Instead, it’s about the little tricks that you probably didn’t know that will make your homemade burrito taste even better than the one you buy at your favorite burrito place.

The most important thing is to get the right tortillas. They should be big, thin, and stretchy so you can wrap them around the fillings. The next thing to do is to heat the tortilla in a pan. This will help melt the fat contained in the tortilla and enrich the flavor. After wrapping the tortilla, seal the ending by heating it in the pan some more, then flip it so the top gets crispy, too.

The final trick is to wrap the warm burrito in aluminum foil. It will keep your food warm, make it easy to take with you, and reduce the risk of spills. Watch the video below for more details.
