I have watched about watched a million chef John videos, and really enjoying. He's great.
However, he plays fast and loose with traditional recipes!
Look at this recipe for gazpacho.

from the comments section.
"gazpacho does not have red pepper,does not have black pepper, does not have worcestershire sauce, does not have lime, does not have oregano,does not have basil, nor does it have jalapeños. and all those chunks should be blended in, please do not call this gazpacho"
I mean… Worchestershire sauce? Really? The point of gazpacho is to taste the clean, fresh vegetables.
But more than that this doesn't qualify as gazpacho. It just doesn't. he should call it "gazpacho inspired cold soup" that would be more accurate.
also, when making Thai dishes . He says go ahead and substitute ginger for the galangal. What? No! Those two food items have very different flavors and you can't just substitute them.
Like I say I love Chef John, but sometimes he just goes off the rails
