Seriously, this guy is one of THE best chefs on planet earth, having multiple Michelin star restaurants, several awards, has achieved near mastery of the usage of cooking ingredients.

But despite all of this, he still makes cooking tutorials for many of his world class recipes for free on YouTube.

It’s really useful for a guy like me who’s not a very good cook, let alone even know how to cook properly.

At the age I’m now at (18), I don’t have to cook for myself since my mom does all the cooking and all she wants me to do is study and build a future , which is reasonable.

But there will be a time in the future where I’m alone and will have to cook for myself and learn to feed myself.

My mom teaches me a few recipes too, but where I come from, the ingredients used in these recipes are exotic and not easily available fresh (yes, I too, watch kitchen nightmares).

So this is where Gordon’s videos are super helpful. Unlike other YouTube tutorials, Gordon’s videos don’t beat around the bush and skip straight to the crux of what he’s trying to explain.

Simply put, the dude doesn’t fuck around,

“cut the chicken sideways, open, spread, parchment paper, another parchment paper , rolling pin, flat”

As opposed to

“The first time I made this recipe and ate it, my eyes were filled with tears and I couldn’t begin to fathom what was happening. Suddenly Wolfgang Puck himself came into my kitchen with a huge procession and a marching band and tasted my chicken. He tasted it and said it was the best dish he’d ever tasted and started crying. Suddenly the president of the United States walked into the room and gave me the presidential medal of freedom. Everyone , even the chicken, started clapping”
