Hi! I'm professional chef and baker, Brian Lagerstrom. On this channel I'll show you how I think about and cook food at the professional level then turn those techniques into approachable, easy to replicate dishes for you, the home cook.
I publish 1 video per week (on Thursday) that focuses on improved versions of classic dishes, elevated weeknight cooking, and best practices to help inspired home cooks make restaurant quality food from their kitchens. If that sounds like something you're into, I hope you'll keep watching.

Hey everyone,
Im looking for some recommendations for things to do, places to see, restaurants to try, and dishes to try around Kyoto/Osaka/Kanazawa in Japan. Also if you live in those cities and possibly want to show me around, DM me on Instagram.
Im also open to other cities in the area, still forming up the trip. Thanks in advance!

Hey Everyone,
Im writing this to let you all know that Ive decided to take an extended break from uploading videos.
Why?
YouTube is fun and rewarding, but anyone who does it over the long haul will tell you that it's VERY hard to do professionally if you don't set up your work in a sustainable way...and while pursuing the passion I felt for sharing recipes and building this community, I never got around to that, and now Im overcooked.
This kind of burnout is weirdly common these days on YouTube. Im not sure if the platforms incentives drive creators crazy or if the idea of making videos for a living attracts people that are already kinda crazy in the first place. Either way, if you watch YouTube, you know the deal: creator builds audience with tons of effort, then creator maintains that audience with tons of effort, then creator makes burnout community post or video explaining why YouTube is hard.
So now Im taking a long break to figure out how to make work that Im proud of without becoming limp spaghetti in the process. I want to thank you for being here. I feel very lucky to have the opportunity to make recipes for a living. I will see you guys after a while, and I hope you're still here and interested when Im back...which will probably be in a month or two.
Talk Soon,
Bri.
P.S. The Lagerstrom Home Goods Garlic Press and Digital Scale (along with a few other tasty kitchen tools) are still working and will be coming out very soon! Stay tuned for updates, its taken a while to get them designed and tested, but after a ton of revisions and changes I'm TRULY super stoked on them and I cant wait for you to try them. Stay tuned for updates.

Heads up, my new video uploads will be posting on Sundays now instead of Thursdays. Forgive me. I know how much you love sneaking cooking vids while you're at work.
Have a spoon at the ready and watch the next one tomorrow 12/14 at 10am CST

Dropping into your feed to remind you that I uploaded a new vid today, rather than the usual Thursday. 5 very fun (imo) breakfasts that you can make in 15 minutes or less. It's Lorn's favorite video of the year.

I need your feedback! What did you think of the more "live hosted" style of this weeks stew video? It's a bit more like a regular cooking show than my usual format.
