15 Meal Prepping Hacks Every Home Cook Should Know | Epicurious 101

Meal prep took center stage. Frank Proto's "15 Meal Prepping Hacks Every Home Cook Should Know | Epicurious 101" drew more than a quarter-million views, making the professional chef and culinary instructor's practical lesson the week's most watched upload.

Proto's agenda stretches from make-ahead breakfasts to batch-cooked sauces, portioned rice and smarter storage. The comments turn that freezer-first approach into a kitchen conversation: viewers discuss silicone molds for soup, labeling portions and reducing waste with chicken and vegetable stock. Others have a very specific question about the chicken skin in the Hainanese chicken rice.

Breakfast gets its own follow-up in "Meal Prep These Egg Bites for Breakfast All Week," featuring eggs, cheddar, scallions and ham in freezer-friendly muffins. The newest upload, "Is This the Best Boxed Mac and Cheese?", switches from planning meals to tasting them, with Epicurious's panel trying Cabot Creamery's Seriously Sharp Shells & Cheese.

The meal-prep lesson also carries the most daily momentum right now. The boxed mac-and-cheese test and an older shopping guide are drawing similar daily views: in "Butcher Explains Which Ground Beef to Buy | Ultimate Buying Guide | Epicurious," Jake Dickson of Dickson's Farmstand Meats examines fat ratios, packaging, patties and grind size.

Epicurious sits close to Andy Cooks, Nick's Kitchen and Kyle Istook in subscriber size. Nick's Kitchen added substantially more subscribers this week than those nearby channels, while BeardMeatsFood is having a much busier viewing day than usual. For Epicurious, the strongest draw is a lesson aimed at making tomorrow's dinner easier before tomorrow arrives.
