Hillel wants to know I think the, most relevant question to most redditors how can we dress up instant, ramen to, make it better I, mean. I think the simplest way to add. Something. To in sera I mean to make it better is a, poached, egg so just crack an egg into the inner ramen and it's, instant, cheap luxury that, was so brilliant and 123. Miles an hour well played, mr.. Tasty, three says David I know you're a big star Wars fan. Should. They have made the solo movie can anyone really be hon other, than Harrison Ford I think, I'd be a pretty good Han Solo, let's. Be honest. You. Behind Solo that, would that be amazing.
Gareth, King of goblins, says would, you rather be forced, to wear Jenko. Cheese. Nice. 128. Miles an hour by the way straight away what's--what, Lowe is out again 120. Miles an hour you just went but here's the question would. You rather be forced to wear Jenko jeans for the rest of your life or have a face tattoo, chosen. By reddit. Well. Considering, I don't know what Jango jeans are I'm definitely, gonna go a tattoo, on my face chosen by reddit okay Jenko jeans by the way in the early 90s, we're like those crazy flare, pants rave jeans, like size 44. On. My face just making sure animals. Forever, who. Are some chefs, that you look up to I. Already. Mentioned a while did you frame for sure I think I, just, did something with Gabrielle Hamilton and prune she's literally maybe the coolest, chef she's. Too cool for everyone she's just the best I. Mean. There's so many good cooks right now that. Uh you. Know in LA. I can't, even think about it right now because now it's like wow this is crazy driving this past. Biggie. Crawls wants, to know hi, David why, do you squish your food before eating it i squish. My food before I eat it maybe maybe so I can fit more into my mouth I don't know I've never noticed that. All. Right. How's. Your comfort level right now. This. Is wild, like I think, we have the world's best driver with, the world's worst driver this is going to be a good. Mix all, right here you guys you. Down the, straightaway you can wave to me if you wanna waving to you right. Is. Me name says, David I'm a huge fan I only, have one question. Why. Did the Ottoman Empire, fall, oh. Man. I think, maybe let's try this Ottoman. Empire fell probably because of hubris. Strong. Strong. A. Little. Bit Blackfoot how. Do you get a picky toddler, to eat also my. Gf hates cilantro now. How, can I convince her it's not the devil's lettuce that's a two-parter there man. As. A toddler, I don't, know man like I think you just got to give them what they want. You. Know I don't have kids yet so I got to figure that out myself when I go through that as, far as cilantro, I, also. Not the biggest fan in moderate. Doses that can be fantastic I think, that people can go too much cilantro and, that can be problematic I'm. With you I actually hate cilantro. Jack. App has a great question, on your last lap before you come in and take a breath what. 90s, rap album, would make the best soundtrack, to how you feel right now, Ilham. Attic by NAS. I. Knew we were gonna be friends you just solidified, it. Walk. A seven ask what is your favorite, comfort food to make fancier, for, a dinner guests, something, seemingly impressive, but not too hard to pull off I think, that in, every household, or apartment. You should have some pasta spaghetti and some, parmesan, or Grana, Padano cheese so you can make cacio e pepe it's it's, the simplest thing you don't even have to make it like fancy it's just as delicious, as you can get so. Really, really hard to mess, up yep. Dude. You crushed it wow, this is that was crazy this is awesome. Come. On out sir hey, G thank you sir I'll, see you in a bit. Come. And join me here by. Our.

A lot that is going on in that car yeah, it's almost mutual, yeah you were communing, with with the higher powers, we. Have some some, text questions here that we like to ask you from some of your diehard fans. First. One is trouts Bane how do you make a perfect, easy to peel hard-boiled. Egg. Well. Trout's. Bane that's a good name I, think, what the first step is to find old eggs without, doing the science of it it's going to be a lot easier to peel an older egg like I got two, to three week old egg it's. Not it's still fresh, and. Then boil. It in cold water to hot, water for about like eight to nine minutes and then chill it down old, egg start, cold and then, peel. It underwater so crack a little bit and then peel it on the water and let the water sort. Of help separate separate, the egg from that water impregnate, yes egg yes, dude, I'm, trying that tomorrow, all. Right trot Spain tonight we're going for it old. Eggs I love. That Chloe design place. In order of preference mon, Dieu Xiao, long bao gyoza. San Jian Bao, ravioli.

Ask What is your favorite, dish to make that you would never sell, at a restaurant. Holy. Hell. Favorite. Dish to make I would, never sell at a restaurant. I'm. Not a big fan of like, smoked, salmon dishes, because. I think it's just overdone, but I eat, it all the time so I actually I rarely have. Ever put that on a restaurant, I don't know if I've ever have, that's. Great I like, I like that you hear that you're not afraid to open up about your your contradictions. How. Do you feel about being, global, and internet. Sites like Yelp Chowhound, and food blogs telling us what is good and what, isn't. Hey, man it's a democracy so, people. Can have, any opinion they, want and, ate. Listen, it's never fun to get criticized it's never fun to be told, where and how but there's a lot of good information out, there so you just got to decide you. Know what, you want to actually read so it's a free world you can do what you want awesome. Now you're coming over that blind spot of turn six and then, I want you to you, should go as fast as you can going downhill right this is where you can get a lot of speed Wow. 100. Miles an hour yeah I did now it's just willfully. I, got scared you crushed it, alright, in our fast-paced society, we don't have meals together anymore. 53%. Of all meals in the US are eaten alone what, do you think of this new isolated. Eating and is it something we should be worried about that's from home-cooked Inc. I, think. That's the best question I've had all day you. Know in the world where we're busier than ever man like food. Should be communal, yeah I eat by myself all the time but, you. Know fun chicken bread with your friends lunch it's like there's something really great about that punch it punch it punch it punch it. Whoa. 1:18. That. Was great whoa. I'm a single dude and I eat by myself a lot and I got depressed just when, I saw that question I was like oh that's me. What's, the grossest, thing you've seen, go unnoticed, in a restaurant kitchen oh. Man. Well. The thing is I've. Worked in play this is going to be not like this is a true answer. Like. Gross things that happen in the kitchen unnoticed, never I've. Never seen it like hop I mean I've seen gross things happen but it never leaves the kitchen you, know right and I've, seen some pretty you. Know they're, mostly accidents, involving knives. You. Know but, like like. Fingers yeah. So. You. Know but there's a pretty, rare like, if. You work in a really good kitchen I don't think you have anything to worry about.

To cut yourself I don't know anyone that hasn't cut themselves okay that's, how you learn not to cut yourself right, oh. This. Is a great question from Pixy, be.

Make those iron rock gates oh yeah yeah yeah yeah, that's. Strange I thought oh you're strange I thought that's it's it's so uncool, no one wants to do it so I could just be left alone that's. Great.
