How YouTube and Tiktok Are Shaping a New Generation of Chefs

Just as athletes watch training videos to improve performance, chefs can now access a vast library on YouTube to hone their craft. After the Food Network premiered 30 years later, home cooks picked up countless tips from the likes of Emeril Lagasse and Bobby Flay. Today almost every social media platform has a wealth of instruction geared toward home cooks (especially if their goal is to get dinner on the table in five minutes using even fewer ingredients). YouTube has become an increasingly useful resource for professional chefs who know what to look for. In recent years, it's also helped skilled amateurs earn culinary reputations and even open their own restaurants. Bloomberg Pursuits Food Editor Kate Krader and Bloomberg Pursuits Editor Chris Rovzar join Bloomberg Businessweek Daily to discuss this and more. (Source: Bloomberg)

NYT Mini Hints For Wednesday, July 16: Today's Extra Clues And Answers

Answers for today's NYT Mini Crossword are just ahead. Before we get to today's NYT Mini crossword hints, clues and answers, here are Tuesday's: Wondering what it might mean to keep something in the loop? Not sure what type of wood Horace Slughorn's wand is made from in the Harry Potter books? Don't worry, because I'm here to help you with extra hints and the answers for today's NYT Mini crossword. The NYT Mini is a quick and dirty version of the newspaper's larger and long-running crossword. Most days, there are between three and five clues in each direction on a five by five grid, but the puzzles are sometimes larger, especially on Saturdays. Unlike its larger sibling, the NYT Mini crossword is free to play on the New York Times website or NYT Games app. However, you'll need an NYT Games subscription to access previous puzzles in the archives. Here are extra hints and the official NYT Mini Crossword clues and answers for Wednesday, July 16: Spoilers lie ahead, so remember to scroll slowly: NYT Mini Crossword Hints 1 Across: Measurements in syringes, perhaps 4 Across: Keeps pants up 6 Across: Completely treasure 7 Across: Major annual WWE event Wrestle_____ 8 Across: A Member of Congress 1 Down: ____ Rapids, a city in Iowa 2 Down: Like a dinosaur in Jurassic Park or Dolly the Sheep 3 Down: Area where many of Las Vegas' most famous hotels and casinos are 4 Down: Exclamation often made by chef Emeril Lagasse 5 Down: The Old Man and the ____, Ernest Hemingway novella NYT Mini Crossword Clues And Answers 1 Across: Keeps in the loop, in a way – CCS 4 Across: They're kept in the loop – BELTS 6 Across: Love to pieces – ADORE 7 Across: Craze – MANIA 8 Across: Single weightlifting unit – REP 1 Down: Type of wood in Horace Slughorn's wand in the Harry Potter books – CEDAR 2 Down: What might have you seeing double? – CLONE 3 Down: Cartoonist's creation – STRIP 4 Down: "Ka-POW!" – BAM 5 Down: The Caribbean, e.g. – SEA Completed New York Times Mini crossword for Wednesday, July 16. It took me 2:29 to complete today's NYT Mini. Wow, was this a tough one! The only answers I got without help from other letters were ADORE and SEA. I figured that MANIA might be "trend," but it quickly became clear that didn't fit with any Down answers. I took an educated guess with CEDAR. That clue seems requires very specific knowledge (I've seen the Harry Potter films, but haven't read the books and there's absolutely zero chance I'm going to do that at this point because, y'know). That helped me get REP, which I initially thought might be "lbs," but that wouldn't make sense for a 'single' unit. The "P" there led me to figure out STRIP, which led into MANIA and CLONE. With "-elts" on the board, the only thing that made sense for 4 Across was BELTS. BAM seems like a pretty arbitrary one to me. It took me far too long to figure out how CCS related to the clue – it refers to CCing someone on an email. See you tomorrow for more NYT Mini fun!

29 Kitchen Products That Are So Handy, You'll Use Them Multiple Times A Day

An expandable colander you can fit snugly inside your sink to clean fruits and veggies, drain pasta, *and* dry dishes while also bringing some life to a typically boring area of the kitchen. Or a game-changing Snap N' Strain you can use with any pot or bowl. Just think of how much space you'll save in your already-crowded kitchen cabinets! Reviewers use it to strain a variety of things (not just pasta)! Plus, a cutting board and strainer combo, your mom will "ooh" and "ahh" over when you excitedly show it to her over Facetime while *also* asking her, "Do you think this chicken is cooked?" A Ninja Crispi Air Fryer system that'll have you feeling like you've just become an American Ninja Kitchen Warrior. Throw your go-to lazy day meal of nuggets and fries into the glass container, attach it to the air fryer, enjoy the fruits of your labor (yum) and then run it back again at dinnertime! Or an Emeril Lagasse dual zone air fryer over combo with precise temperature for both sides so you can cook two very different items at once (and in two different ways). It has the capability to air fry, bake, cook pizza, reheat, dehydrate, roast, broil, grill, toast, keep items warm, slow cook, and can be used as a rotisserie. Bam! Emeril is still killin' it! A set of stove burner covers to catch the inevitable splash of sauce that always finds its way out of your pot — it'll also help cover up some chipped the burners you unfortunately inherited from the previous owner. A self-draining silicone sponge holder you'll use constantly because, let's face it, you're tired of a gross puddle of dirty dishwater leaking all over your counter, and your brushes and sponges are in need of a home to call their own. It'll be a win-win! A set of gravity-activated grinders to make you feel like you're living alongside The Jetsons each time you season something. No twisting or turning needed — these automatically release freshly ground salt or pepper whenever you tip it over. Or hand-painted wildflower salt and pepper shakers that'll put a spring in your step — plus they'll be an adorable, functional and darling addition to your daily at-home dining experiences. A porcelain butter dish you'll for how pretty and practical it is but *also* be surprised by how often you reach for it during the day. Just think about it — on a typical day you could very well be slathering butter on a waffle, buttering up some toast, or popping some butter into a pan to saute some veggies! KitchenAid shears, because you should probably stop using your regular ol' crafting scissors when you're cooking. 😅 Use these to beautifully cut quesadillas or pizza into slices (a must-have for parents!) or to quickly chop herbs. A 2-in-1 knife and cutting board for anyone who detests cleaning full-sized cutting boards — they're so awkward to fit into my sink and I somehow always end up drenched in the process. It'll also be a great option for making custom salads for the whole fam who don't necessarily want the same thing in theirs. Cut a few pieces of cucumber into your bowl and a few slices of bell pepper into your partner's! A Dawn Platinum Powerwash dish spray that will become your right-hand man in the kitchen from here on out — it comes in various delectable scents and works wonders on caked-on food and grease. All you have to do is spritz, let it sit, then rinse it off! Reviewers are obsessed with it — it has over 90,000 5-star reviews. (WOW!!!) A soap-dispensing attachment to upgrade your Scrub Daddy into the ultimate dish-cleaning mechanism. You can go ahead and make an absolute mess of your pots and pants, knowing this gadget has got your back. And a set of cat-shaped double-sided sponges because why not turn one of your most hated tasks (scrubbing, well, anything) into an adorable experience that'll encourage you to do it *meow* instead of later? Oxo's new compact Brew Rapid Brewer that'll have you wondering, "Where has this been all of my life?" It won't take up much counter space at *all*, and it doesn't need to be plugged in or charged, so you'll never find yourself waiting around too long for a fresh cup of joe. Plus a tiny but mighty milk frother to add all kinds of foamy goodness to your drinks while also making you feel like you just graduated from a special barista class. Making at-home bevs is about to be a lot more exciting. An affordable and excellent chef's knife you can use to beautifully cut up ingredients in a way even Gordon Ramsay would applaud. (And we *know* how much he loves to aggressively shout criticisms!) Or a set of floral kitchen knives that'll make every meal prep feel refreshing — a new, sharp, beautiful set of tools is sure to motivate you to make dinner at home instead of Seamless-ing dinner for the umpteenth time. And cut-resistant gloves for anyone who has already had the somewhat horrifying experience of slicing one of their digits. Sorry, Chef, but no one wants blood in their meatballs. Safety first! A super absorbent floral dish drying mat to add some pretty vibes into your kitchen and to your least favorite chore (doing the dishes, siiiiiiiigh) It's a functional *and* lovely option for anyone in need of somewhere to dry their cups, bowls, and plates. A family-size Perfect Pot you can use on both the stovetop and in the oven — it'll replace your stock pot, Dutch oven, saucepot, roasting rack, steamer, colander, braiser, and spoon rest! Talk about a fabulous gift, jeez. Or a 12-piece ceramic, nonstick Caraway cookware set complete with everything you'd possibly need to inspire you to make a mouthwatering meal in the comfort of your kitchen instead of heading out to eat (again). The set has a one-year warranty (phew) and is naturally non-stick, so you'll save $$$ on butter, oil, and cooking spray, and will be able to withstand waaaaay more cooking than those raggedy pots and pans you've been using since college. Extra long oven mitts to protect your arms while you're checking on the delicious veggies you're roasting for dinner and then again later when you're popping the oven open to see if your famous chocolate chip cookies are perfectly browned and ready for dessert. A compact Ninja Foodi 2-in-1 Flip Toaster you can use like a regular toaster *then* flip on its side to transform it into a toaster oven. May waffles and reheated leftover pizza (which is superior to all other leftovers, BTW) be in your near future. A vertical pan handle attachment that'll make it easier than ever to lift that adorable cast-iron skillet you just HAD to have in a fun color to match the rest of your kitchen. Environmentally friendly dishcloths made of cellulose and cotton you can use to clean your counters, stovetops, dishes, shower doors, and mirrors and the tears you're likely to shed when you accidentally burn dinner for the umpteenth time. A set of Anyday microwaveable cooking essentials that'll completely change how you cook and store leftovers — each dish is microwave- and dishwasher-safe *and* can also be used for steaming, roasting, and serving! You'll have waaay less to clean so you can get back to doing more important things like catch up with your bestie on that questionable first date she went on last night. And a 12-ounce bottle of Mike's Hot Honey you can drizzle over any and every meal — breakfast, lunch, and dinner! This condiment is about to be there for you more than your ex ever was.
