I love how it’s clear y’all bought a heck of a lot of prawns/shrimp for the comparison vid and every video since then has been finding ways to use them up 😂

[-_.kat._-]

Ben's little dance break is exactly what this video needed!😂

[isabell]

As an Australian who actually uses these salts, it’s amazing that they were shown, and that you deep-dived and discussed indigenous ingredients and culture. My heart is very happy right now. We need to bring more indigenous ingredients to the forefront and educate people about this amazing culture. So thank you all, especially Ebbers hahaha

Sorted Food has always been about "Less waste & Saving Money". So to showcase these options for things made with byproducts is fantastic and on par for the idea of Sorted Food. Helping the farmers find new ways to sell or make things is wonderful. We can't survive in this world without our Farmers. No matter where you are in the world, support your local farms as well as explore the products of the world. Thank you for this journey today.

I'd love to see a normals challenge of them working and learning about Ebbers' allotment. A mini "farm to table" experience over the course of weeks, growing the food, working it into dishes back in the studio.

OMG, Ben dancing! That was definitely the best part of the video!

Though I have a sneaking suspicion the editor(s) didn't look _too_ hard for royalty free samples 😏

[hannahbradshaw]

I was not expectecting to see that salt. It's been such a staple in my household for ages. Wipes away proud tear in Australian 😂🥹

[briannehunt]

Did no one catch Jamie asking if the 3 sludges were green?! I laughed so hard at that little question from the color blinded Jamie.

[zoulsgaming]

Jamie going "is it green?" makes me appreciate how little input he gets from these blind taste tests since he cannot even see if if its fresh herbs or chili paste and just kinda have to hope for the best.

[Jack-uswl]

Could you do an episode on native British plants? Plants like Alexanders, Dandelion etc that were formerly widely eaten

[InCardiaSnoop]

I‘ve seen the exact same herb sauces a few months back in a german supermarket chain and thought to myself: „That‘s genius I need to try it.“ But my wife said No. I could have been a trendsetter😂

[kayawinters]

As an Australian. We love our lemon myrtle. Its in so many products and growing. Hopefully your able to try it in a few different ways in the future. 🥰

[danielsantiagourtado]

The Pairing of Jaime and Barry is such a classic! I'm betting that Barry will take all of these back home! 🤣🤣😂😂

[Anna_TravelsByRail]

Barry not being able to hold his liquor just never gets old. 😂

[PokhrajRoy.]

“I get three pots of green sludge.”
“I’m Basil. This is my juice.”

Haha Barry’s One-Liner game is on 🔥

[DNTXPCTMCH]

Thank you Ben for being exactly who you are. I love all the information you share with us and help us learn

[lockygreen]

Saltbush kitchen first started in my home town. It’s absolutely fantastic to see you guy try them. The blend that I have I usually add to cocktails in summer, which just adds something extra with out any effort.

[jasonellis]

I know you guys probably already filmed this episode before it happened, but a very famous Aussie (Scottish born) chef Jock Zonfrillo just passed away and was a massive advocate for using native Indigenous ingredients. He went on land and worked with the Aboriginal community to highlight them and their uses in cooking and even set up a foundation to support them, and used them extensively in his restaurant Orana before it's closure due to COVID-19. He'd have been thrilled to see you guys using them and spreading the word about how amazing and important ingredients like these being shared with the world. RIP Jock😢

I stan the factoids ! Learning about the rapeseed cake meal reducing methane and the small talk on farming was very interesting 👍

[tastymedleys]

I really appreciate Jamie's honest point at the end. It's really fun discovering new things and flavours, especially with more sustainable products that are starting to emerge nowadays, but sometimes you also just want those classic flavours. Sometimes I crave a food exactly the way my mother used to make it, not with the newer, maybe even better ingredients I can get now.
