[poptropicaturtle]

if the measurements are crucial then how is it impossible to make it not delicious?

[ohmixmaster]

[RyeBai]

To me, it can be compared to... Worsterchire... Wazazibbidy... Hm... Worcestershire... ...

I had to look this up for spell check.

It was good.

Definitely mixes well with the salmon.

Zesty with a bite.

[119Shadow119]

[OranEtPlayer]

Give me a pyece!

[Carmel86Tae]

DEAR CHEF JOHN! THIS RECIPE IS AWESOME! I have to admit though the ingredients I used were unofficial to yours but it's still great! :-D Yes it was last minute and no beer was not involved. lol

Thanks for sharing!

[kouta4000]

10 people don't have basil plant's in their garden

[1cocomucho]

can you use this sauce to baked salmon? I mean like bake them together??

[TheStrayHotdog]

I was expecting to see some Technique on how to actually grill the salmon.

[Carmel86Tae]

I love your blog and sense of humor! Thanks for sharing!

Tae

[aznxCOOLxguy]

LOLLL i enjoyed this video!!! Chef John has good humor!

[MarchingMac04]

When he said, "Which are so crucial." About the measurments, is he being sarcastic?

[Qjemuse]

chef john, i love every vid of yours

but the best way to eat the salmon? raw.

[linkcoffe]

i'll try it tomorrow and let you know how it went, can i replace the rice vinegar with white regular vinegar? thanks

[rebelpy]

@linkcoffe

yes but you will have to find a very strong one to get the same result with a few minor changes.

[defineangel]

lols,... aint its sth like that chilli sauce but not as thick and 1000 oh wait i mean 100000000000000000000000000000­00000000000000 times better?

[Jrodermond1]

I made this today and it was very good,, a little kick so don't over do it with the chili sauce,, but my family really like this sauce over salmon delish... :)

[picatsoforfma]

I like salmon enough to eat it witout sauce or seasoning but this looks really good :)

[Ren090485]

That looks delicious!!! :) x

[helpee]

[EasyRecipesHQ]

good stuff

[SundariStudio]

I like the way you give comment .. it is fun...and you food looks AWESOME... i can relate to this recipe .. I am from Indonesia... Keep up your awesome recipes and fun voice over...

[christschool]

I wonder if this would be even better with a sprinkle of Panko bread crumbs on it?

[gutsthedon]

did he say "rice and vinegar?" someone please write the ingredients for the sauce.

[crazypoulada]

Really nice glaze, i tried it but i put tarragon, i didn't have basil. It was the bomb!

[luckypianocat1]

Have made this dish twice for my wife and I...wonderfull!

The sambal also adds a wondefull heat to my spaghetti sauce.

(in very sparing amounts!! It's incredibly HOT!!)

thanks John

[radbcc]

Damn, that looks good.

[newguy90]

@hotboyz227

I had the same problem the first time I tried this. I found that medium heat doesn't cut it with my stove. Turn up the heat and make sure it starts boiling (large bubbles come up). It should then start to thicken up as the water evaporates away.  The longer you "reduce" it, the thicker the sauce will become.

[AfterShadow]

how did you know beer was involved? xD

[songo4ever]

lord have mercy that looks good!

[neettim]

ok this is my last video for today before i eat dinner.

[nirvgardengod]

that was a great looking sauce

[yumi315]

its asian sauce/dip for any grilled/smoked meat

[TheCanontube]

geez, sound effect on 0:27 was damn dramatic yet hilarious!

[lilaznbbkid]

DAM COMMERCIALS I WANNA LEARN HERE

[aplayaz2000]

very NICE HOW MUCH

[LobsterOfDeath]

im so hungry now

[TheMahaeissa]

@KyoraBaby Are you serious with that comment? Mayo and tabasco..seriously?!

[TheMahaeissa]

@KyoraBaby Are you serious with that comment? Mayo and tabasco..seriously?!

[luckypianocat1]

Hi Chef,

Absolutley Wonderful!

Perviously, I had never cared much for salmon, but I decided to cook this dish for my wife, who loves fish. What can I say? I loved it! As we both like hot seasoning I added a bit more of the Sambal paste than was perhaps necessary, but the results were spectacular! Persons trying this recipe should be warned about the true heat of the Sambal, but also to accept no substitutes! The flavor when mixed with the brown sugan and ginger is wonderful!

Love your humor

[luvtwinkie1993]

I used this sauce on chicken and it tasted GREAT! i think this sauce works on any meat

[squirlycurly]

OH MY YUMMY

[Papoose35]

Omg i jizzed

[kcsweetheart1221]

This looks delicious--I can't wait to try it!! I have an awesome Sauteed Spicy Bok Choy recipe on my YouTube Channel that would go great with this!!

I love your vlog, Chef John! Keep 'em coming

[mellisa824166]

the way u described the sauce at the end made it sound like u were getting horny over it lol XDDDD

[FIREstarter0418]

mmmm

[gardini100]

hmm 5 mins if panic sourcream/horseradish and spring onion in a bowl and mix well its cold sauce but match grilled salamon perfect i think :).....but your looks better so im gone try it next time

[riemh]

Dear Chef John,

I've tried to find an address to send this to you personally---no joy...anyways I hope you read this: THIS IS THE BEST SAUCE I EVER MADE OR TASTED IN MY LIFE!!!!!! I brought it to a BBQ party and everybody put it not only on their salmon, they put it on their chicken AND on plain romaine leaves and the sounds that my friends made while they were eating...it was kinda gross cause it seemed like an orgy! THANK YOU!!!! Big affection from Vienna, riem

[lironess]

@riemh can you give me the recipe for making a large portion? I know that when you make more you have to change the ingredients a bit....

[BoriquaRikan1227]

@riemh And on their bodies and used it as Shampoo....It was Great, everybody dancing around and shakin their Asses and Smackin eachother with the Salmon Sauce. it was Crazy!!

[riemh]

@BoriquaRikan1227 hahahahaha you funny. I know I was enthusiastic but it really is a good sauce. hahahaha

[username1273]

@KyoraBaby Very funny comment. I laughed out loud when I read it!

[wtrdogg20]

@KyoraBaby Well, you can be all the racist and supremacist as much as you want, but with Mayo and Tobasco you are just destroying a very delicious and healthy recipe like this one. OMG!!

[TheMahaeissa]

@KyoraBaby Are you serious? Mayo and tabasco?! I don't know wether to laugh or feel sorry for Chef John for you asking such a question

[creamywasabi]

my foodwish is 2 hav Chef John in my kitchen....@_@

[jenjen1519]

LOL i love the dramatic music 0:28 - 0:30

[aubrtole]

[cliffcox66]

OMG! I was suckered into the Chicken French teaser, which I made and it turned out well. Family loved it. I volunteer to be taken in by this bacon tease trap as well. Thank you Foodwishes.

[nadeeyaafiza]

Chef, u said sambal??hahahaha..Thats our food..Hehehe

[Nur8Nurani]

chef what the difference between this and the Garlic Ginger Basil Salmon you posted before?

[aeromorte]

haha really great one ^^

[curlifries18]

TINY SPOON!!!!!!

[IcyAsh]

Ooo. This looks like the chilli sauce they have in my country. Yummylicious.

[hellokittyjune]

okay i don't know why i did but, i know better than to watch your videos on an empty stomach...now im paying for it...im sooo hungry :/

[YJSui]

can you make risotto?

[hunsua]

jajjaja the no! is the best answer ever !! LOL

[trisdom04]

this is the BEST video you have made so far! ALL your videos are so fun and entertaining, but this one.... A-MAZING!!! keep making them and im looking forward to seeing you as the Next Food Network Star, you deserve it!!!

[jami3r00]

just wow

[amdteng]

Chef John, i think you can substitute basil leaves with limes. Squeeze the lime on top of the grilled salmon. Or probably you can use lemon.

Because my family sometimes use the cooked sambal sauce, pour it on top of a grilled fish and squeeze lime on top of it. Anyway, thanks to you, I would probably suggest to my family to use basil leaves with sambal and see how it goes =).

[akvergara]

oh not a good idea to watch if you're hungry and there's no food at home.

[pamdento]

i don't get it....those 6 dislikes, do they eat??? guess they don't have any appetite!!!

[yodeling4otters]

Wow! That looks so good!

[tammyholmes]

I am totally making this tomorrow night!!

I had a recipe similar, but used honey instead of brown sugar. I can't wait to try it with the basil!!!!!!

[lilpiggy89]

looks great

[stooge81]

i'm thinkin' that sauce would probably make old sweat socks taste good too.

[tacoskater110]

ART!!!

[liquidhead]

i'm just wondering how you grilled it so perfectly...

[MIZZwOAH]

OH MY GOD. 

[jagwio]

from wow to WOW!

[LeviathAileron]

Food Wish:

Spam

I'm being serious; Spam is actually good and it is huge in Hawaii. When I was there last year it was even on the menu for not only local diners but McDonald's. Spam and rice is huge and its actually good if you prepare it correctly.

Please experiment with this and bring us some ideas :)

[gurubhai01]

@LeviathAileron they featured spam sushi roll on Triple D

[LeviathAileron]

@gurubhai01

Whats Triple D?

Thanks for the response.

[GuyThatGames]

A show on Foodnetworks.

[LeviathAileron]

@GuyThatGames

Sweet, spam ftw.

[muncher541]

@LeviathAileron Spam is so disgusting. Do you know how they make it? And from what?

[kouta4000]

@muncher541 pig stop being a food terrorist get over it

[hawaiidispenser]

@LeviathAileron Yes, Spam is incredibly popular here in Hawaii and I think it tastes really good in small amounts. I say small amounts, because otherwise the fat and salt will overwhelm eventually and gross you out, kinda like how cinnabons become too cloying. Pan fried, it develops a wonderfully crisp, brown crust on the outside. On a spam-musubi, it absorbs the sweet teriyaki sauce really well and counters that sweetness with its saltiness, with the rice as a neutral support.

[thefallingdream]

@hawaiidispenser i love spam and use it as a mixer a lot. Me and my friend Brandon pioneered the "midnight bbq" in my circle of friends and we bbq the spam and glaze with katsu while cooking. We take a few slices and chop it finely and stir into a big pot of shells and white cheddar pasta. This may be the best way to eat spam EVER. try it, you wont regret it.

[thefallingdream]

@hawaiidispenser oh yeah, we do this because where i live, spam is only $1 per can

[Jaydaddyfresh]

can this recipe be made without the grill or sauce pan?

[SunflowerClovers]

I drooled every time you poured the sauce on! xD

[LH787]

My food wish is something with chicken breast,curry...and it should be hot,because i like hot food :)

[TangoSpiceCompany]

Excellent sauce, I am sure it would be wonderful on many a fine grilled item!

[sweetchary]

i tried this recipe today, after watching a whole bunch of your videos last night - getting very very hungry for good food. it´s very yummy and the sauce is so aromatic from the garlic and ginger!!

[lauweroos]

the questions people ask in the comments are so funny... surprised no one asked "can i make this dish without the salmon?" lol

[umaeus]

Is dried basil ok? Put in the glaze at the beginning perhaps? Unfortunately, I don't have a garden.

[1kperday]

@umaeus FYI pretty much every grocery store sells little packets of fresh basil now... for 18 dollars a leaf. 

[ji94552]

As usual funny and informative!  I am going to try this recipe for sure.

[ilikethewok]

Looks so delicious!! Thx for this recipe.

[chibidancingpanda]

oh my gosh,you said sambal?!! how do you know that chilli paste = sambal??

[pmharl]

@Amberzrulz wow, your dog eats better than you! considering your comment, he deserves it. wouldn't want to eat anything served by you though. hey guys, flag this guy. enough said.

[Amberzrulz]

@pmharl I dont have a dog.

[pmharl]

@Amberzrulz wow, you really dont want him to go to foodnetwork. screw you. its his WISH. and he wont leave us at youtube.

as a playboy in japan, your recipes have opened a whole new world. thank you and i owe you a beer!

[golddigger0325]

OMG the sause is sparkling like diamonds! I bet you put some when you weren't recording!

[feliciajuly]

John, this looks fabulous!!! Thank you :)

[monden27]

Hey chef John,

Like the way you took an old classic and made it a bit fresher and funnier. I remeber you uploaded a similar recipe back in October '08, but then you cooked the salmon in the sauce. This will allow us to make the sauce seperate, and use it for other dishes as well. Great job!

[rhamzal]

healthy and easy tnx chef.

[pinkisshh]

SADDD! I CAN'T EAT CHILLI D: SO THAT MEANS I CAN'T EAT THIS SALMON!

[jagjagin]

lol when you said you have 5 minutes, it reminded me of SAW

[TheMRamstaff]

sugar , doesnt that defeat the purpose of eating a healthy high protein low calorie meat?

[PinkishBears]

@meerkatlibrarian yess . you can eat it raw .

[foodwishes]

@meerkatlibrarian I don't have to.

[shenmueryu]

@meerkatlibrarian Les Stroud did it as well

[AznM4fia]

@meerkatlibrarian The sun's getting down beter drink my own piss.

[meknewxenu]

Awesome!

[GunitForLyfe]

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[gartini]

Oh no! I ran out of gingers! I have to go next door and fetch more! :)

[justbram]

is dried basil okay?

[blinkblinkblinkkdd]

food porn tuned into horror. gore in specific.

[leftyla]

Ginger from a tube? A TUBE?? I thought you were perfect.

[russtex]

Yes, it was the beer..hehehe. Looks really delicious!

[foodfor1]

when the sauce is boiling,

are the orange bubbles in the middle... fat?

[hoanggia9191]

thumb up!!!!!!!!!!

[tchapman1977]

Not noramally a big fan of salmon but I may just have to try this recipe because it does look good. Thanks for posting this, Chef John! Always look forward to your vids & hope that Food Network picks you up for a show soon. They're fools not to have discovered you by now!

[fmfad]

what does salmon taste like? i wanna try it but i dont wanna waste it if i dont like it...

[JoyeuseXI]

@fmfad It's fishy lol. I mean, can't really give much of a better explanation then that. You should just try it, you'll really only know then if you like it.

[deathbysushi]

Isn't this a very similar sauce to the one you put on the chicken wings?

[indofatso]

INDONESIA FTW GO SAMBAL

[Sizzy84]

when you realize you forgot to make a sauce! EPIC MUSIC STARTS.

[Nubakanezer]

looks amazing!

[Funkyman391]

this is somewhat similar to Thai food, but we cook it without the basil ;)

[Redisthecolor5]

I WANT FOOD

[TheVittleVlog]

Wow...that is Awesome....Nice!!!

[indicted]

the 4 youtubers who dislikes this recipe are dying from hunger

[westislandkev]

way to go !!! u nailed it, again.

[YuliLoveLife]

im loving the dramatic music at 0:28.

[greekcabanaboy]

Our basil plants that we had literally melted in the ground because of the Florida heat... ALL of my plants melted!! even the tarragon. :( this happened even though the whole garden was watered every day!

My food wish is for a cold, Mediterranean, tzatziki - style soup to combat the hot summer days. : )

Thank you for all your videos and recipes... every time i see one of your videos in my sup menu, i go get some popcorn because i know im going to be entertained. :)

Much appreciated,

Brandon

[moomoomak]

the sauce reminds me of the chicken wing sauce you did a long time ago!!!

[projectdalpha]

must wash drools off my tv screen

[FlyingAero]

I pooped my pants when all the sugar dissolved at once

[crapfromthestreet]

This looks so delicious. I always eat salmon so I'll be sure to try this ASAP!

[jlite]

mmmmmm!!!

[mynewlifebegins]

It looks lovely. Too bad we don't like salmon.

[dodotheextinctsworld]

LOL @ BGM.

Going to try this over at my uncles place in Vancouver! They got some great salmon!
