Marved out of it? These YouTube channels are your new foodie inspo
Now don’t get us wrong: we don’t necessarily watch cooking channels on YouTube to learn how to make fancy dinners or crazy cakes – we just love the entertainment.
And we won't apologise for it, either.
If cooking shows float your boat, but complicated recipes aren't your thing, why not check out our favourite inspiration for whenever you just feel like drooling in front of your screen.
Donal Skehan
It would be impossible to not mention our beloved Donal Skehan.
Even though he recently moved to LA, the Irish food sensation remains our pride and joy.
Sorted Food
These British guys are not only fun to watch, they are also really relatable and we feel like if they can do it, we can too!
Cupcake Gemma
The creme of the buttercream!
When this British pastry extraordinaire teaches us how to make a breathtaking ombre cake, we almost believe we can do it.
Hervé Cuisine
If you think French cooking is all fancy and nervewracking, have a look at Hervé Cuisine. From his Parisian kitchen, this cool guy cooks all sorts of sweet and savoury recipes, and makes it all look really easy-peasy.
And with English subtitles available, you don’t even have to pretend you remember anything from your Leaving Cert oral.
Everyday Food
Everyday Food editor, Sarah Carey, always comes up with easy-to-follow recipes that make us go “Defo could do this!”.
We particularly love the series called Kitchen Conundrums with Thomas Joseph, which breaks down all the crazy science behind cooking and baking.
JessBeautician
As the name of her channel suggests it, Jess was primarily a beauty therapist but her food videos are so brilliant we are seriously considering going vegan.
Well, you know, kinda…
MyCupcakeAddiction
If you have never heard of Elise Strachan, the genius mind behind MyCupcakeAddiction, prepare yourself to be seriously mind-blown.
This Aussie lady makes the most creative and colourful cakes that literally defy gravity.
Bigger Bolder Baking
Gemma Stafford is an Irish professionally trained chef who now lives under the Santa Monica sun, in California.
Her recipes are mouth-watering and always have this wow factor that makes us seriously drool…
Peaceful Cuisine
Ryoya Takashima makes cooking videos that don’t use music and gives us true ASMR feel.
If you ever have a stress rush during the day, tune into his channel and enjoy the quietness of this Japanese kitchen…
Food Tube
Jamie Oliver doesn't need an introduction and his channel, featuring some brilliant guests, needs to be in our faves.
