The whole ‘real chefs don’t use probes’ is like saying ‘real carpenters don’t use a measuring tape’. Use whatever tool to get the best result, consistently.

@TorkildKahrs

Real chefs leave their ego at the door.

@SpaceVENTING

Yeah, I dont care what real chefs do.. if it's halibut, I'm using that thermometer every time. I'm not gonna risk fucking  up S tier fish like that.

@EXScarecroW

As a chef of 20 years, I still use my thermometer everyday.  Protein, sauces, etc.  I CAN'T TELL THE TEMPERATURE OF SOMETHING BY JUST LOOKING AT IT!

That is all. Thank you.

I just finished reading Forbiden Chef Secrets book and it completely explains this. It t's packed with stuff I’ve never seen in regular cookbooks.

@selewin

I always think it is weird when people think less of craftsmen using more convenient tools.

@jordango2919

As a chef myself, i found we use probes at the start of our careers, then mid point we gain this ego where we can touch test everything, then when we hit fine dining we realise a probe is about perfection and leave the ego at the door... touch testing is all about ego or an avwragr steakhouse, top of your level as a chef always probe

@jorgeliceaga7460

Real chefs actually do use temp probes. Wrong temps result in plates coming back to the kitchen. That's money. Over the span of a year, could add up to hundreds of $£

@brudzool

im a drummer and i love using a metronome, that way it is the same everytime and im not influenced by people around me.  perfection.  I love it

@danlowe

This is the only cooking channel I watch. Place I'd want to eat, stuff I'd want to cook, standards I'd want to expect but would never want to lord over someone. Great stuff

@Ray-g3g

4.5 minutes?! No wonder why my fish is always dry. I figured 15 minutes was ideal. Man I need to start researching how to cook ... 😅

@SollowP

Real chefs don't use probes.
Real chefs also don't use knifes, we just tear stuff aparts with our hands.

@bobbygetsbanned6049

Not nearly enough color, and 42C is only 107.6F,  might as well leave it as sashimi if you're only getting it up to room temp.

@Samer-sm6nf

This is becoming one of my favorite food channels 😊
Love it!

@PineappleLiar

Halibut is an excellent fish! I remember as a kid my grandfather had come home from a fishing trip in alaska, and had a whole cooler’s worth of the fish frozen to use the rest of the year.  I was a picky eater then, but he and my grandmother insisted I try it after a simple pan fry in butter, when I visited. It was the first food where I realized that going out of my comfort zone could be really fulfilling, so I always think of it fondly!

Wish it wasn’t so expensive though, lol.

Rubs his hand on it to remove “rawness” proceeds to poke the crusted side with the fingers he just touched the raw side with 🤓

@tarkovtxusa6626

Looks delicious. We eat fish like halibut at home. In the restaurants, the portions are small and annoying but at home we can eat our fill. Chefs make the fish a little better but not enough better to justify eating a 300-500 gram piece of fish at home versus 80 gram in the restaurant for the same price.

@PeterStanton

Seeing a video like this makes me realize how lucky I am I can go out and fish for halibut any time I want. I've eaten so much overcooked halibut in my life, but overcooked halibut is still way better than no halibut at all.

@austinbiondi8193

Am i missing something? 40 C seems like a really low temp for halibut

@ShithéadOConnor

Cooking with thermometers was a game changer for me. I got a few for doing bbq when I got my first offset smoker, and just started using them in the kitchen for any meat, poultry, or fish. What matters is the product, and if a tool gives you a better, more consistent product, why the hell not?
