Also, 137 00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:10,280 Speaker 1: Suki cooks up a storm for Rory's birthday party, mini 138 00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:13,920 Speaker 1: orange biscuits with honey, mustard, ham and cheddar cheese, and 139 00:08:13,960 --> 00:08:19,080 Speaker 1: angel wings with dipping sauce.

Yeah, 153 00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:10,839 Speaker 1: so he comes in with a ras squat. He created it. 154 00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:16,640 Speaker 3: Now, a kum quat is also a sort of a 155 00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:20,000 Speaker 3: mating of a couple of things.

Wait 163 00:09:53,720 --> 00:09:56,320 Speaker 3: is it? No, A cub quat is a citrus, a 164 00:09:56,360 --> 00:10:00,760 Speaker 3: low quat is a pit. I don't know if this 165 00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:01,800 Speaker 3: is possible. 166 00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:04,400 Speaker 1: This might not be possible. All right, we found out 167 00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:07,440 Speaker 1: here this is this begs other questions. 168 00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:14,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, hmm, interesting, interesting with the science here, which they're. 169 00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:15,520 Speaker 1: They're taking some artistic license. 170 00:10:15,600 --> 00:10:20,200 Speaker 3: Maybe I tell you I am very pro pudding, Okay, right, 171 00:10:20,800 --> 00:10:21,400 Speaker 3: I mean who's not? 172 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:27,080 Speaker 1: I am too. I actually joined protest marches for pudding. 173 00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:29,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm very pro pudding. 174 00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:30,720 Speaker 1: It used to happen a lot in my old neighborhood. 175 00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:36,560 Speaker 3: We made a cake the pro pudding, the pro pudding lobby, 176 00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:37,320 Speaker 3: I'm part of that. 177 00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:40,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's about as political as I get. 178 00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:45,600 Speaker 3: So one time we made a cake and it was 179 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:49,800 Speaker 3: this big dinosaur and I was thinking about like dinosaurs 180 00:10:49,840 --> 00:10:53,160 Speaker 3: and sort of like some of the like the dioramas 181 00:10:53,160 --> 00:10:54,720 Speaker 3: that you would see when you go to like the 182 00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:59,680 Speaker 3: you know, the Natural History Museum, and I was like, 183 00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:02,040 Speaker 3: you know, one of the things I love about like dinosaurs, 184 00:11:02,040 --> 00:11:05,400 Speaker 3: it's like all like the like the Librea tar pit 185 00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:09,760 Speaker 3: bubbling mud kind of thing. So it's like, how are 186 00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:14,199 Speaker 3: we going to make bubbling mud for this cake? And 187 00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:19,199 Speaker 3: so I made a very loose, very dark chocolate pudding 188 00:11:19,720 --> 00:11:23,199 Speaker 3: and then I got a bunch of aquarium bubblers and 189 00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:27,000 Speaker 3: we stuck them in to the sort of the vessel 190 00:11:27,080 --> 00:11:29,320 Speaker 3: that we used for the pudding, put all the pudding in, 191 00:11:29,960 --> 00:11:33,199 Speaker 3: and then turned them on. And they were like, oh great, 192 00:11:33,320 --> 00:11:35,240 Speaker 3: yeah it was it was great. 193 00:11:35,400 --> 00:11:38,679 Speaker 1: It was a little couple of little dinosaur eggs and there. 194 00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:42,760 Speaker 1: Maybe they're just like white chocolate. Yeah, yeah, that's why 195 00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:43,880 Speaker 1: that's why I'm not a chef. Really. 196 00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:45,560 Speaker 3: Well, no, the white chalk is actually a good idea 197 00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:50,000 Speaker 3: because it's the chocolate is fat based. It's not water soluble, 198 00:11:50,040 --> 00:11:50,920 Speaker 3: so it would melt. 199 00:11:51,240 --> 00:11:51,320 Speaker 1: Right. 200 00:11:51,400 --> 00:11:54,480 Speaker 3: If I put a candy dinisaur egg in there, it's 201 00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:56,360 Speaker 3: just gonna melt into the liquid of the pudding. But 202 00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:59,360 Speaker 3: a stoll ad piece of chocolate not going anywhere. 203 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:02,679 Speaker 1: I put that in the book. I'm gonna steal that one, 204 00:12:02,679 --> 00:12:03,320 Speaker 1: all right, thank you. 205 00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:04,200 Speaker 3: I'll tell you. 206 00:12:16,640 --> 00:12:20,400 Speaker 1: Is there a pastry that you've made that it stands 207 00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:22,239 Speaker 1: out as your personal favorite. 208 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:31,360 Speaker 3: I'm gonna say my great grandmother's apple scrutle. She was 209 00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:36,719 Speaker 3: a baker and she was from like Ukraine, Moldova, that 210 00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:38,800 Speaker 3: kind of area back I did get up. The border 211 00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:40,920 Speaker 3: is always moving, so who knows where she's from somewhere 212 00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:46,199 Speaker 3: over there. And uh, the thing that's really interesting about it, 213 00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:50,680 Speaker 3: like one, it's absolutely delicious. Uh Two, it's not like 214 00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:52,760 Speaker 3: an apple strudel, like if you go to Germany, if 215 00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:55,880 Speaker 3: you go to Austria and you get an apples apples strudle, 216 00:12:56,320 --> 00:12:59,520 Speaker 3: it's like big chunks of apples, right, and they're pretty 217 00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:01,880 Speaker 3: fresh and they still got like they're pretty toothy, like 218 00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:06,000 Speaker 3: they still got some crunch to them. Almost hers. She 219 00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:10,480 Speaker 3: would cook her apples down, like she'd cook it and 220 00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:13,280 Speaker 3: cook it. It would become apple sauce. She would keep 221 00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:16,360 Speaker 3: going and cooked it down to like a marmalade. That's 222 00:13:16,400 --> 00:13:19,760 Speaker 3: the word she used, was marmalade. And the recipe when 223 00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:22,800 Speaker 3: I make it, I've actually taken it a step further 224 00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:25,800 Speaker 3: and I will reduce it and reduce it, and it's 225 00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:28,280 Speaker 3: like it'll take six seven hours to like reduce this 226 00:13:28,280 --> 00:13:32,920 Speaker 3: stuff all the way and then at the last minute 227 00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:38,800 Speaker 3: there's like this point where you have finally removed all 228 00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:43,319 Speaker 3: of the moisture, all of the water from the apples. Now, 229 00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:48,240 Speaker 3: the interesting thing about cooking is that it's basically you're 230 00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:51,040 Speaker 3: all you're really doing when you're cooking or baking is 231 00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:54,160 Speaker 3: managing water, right, and trying to sort of like move 232 00:13:54,200 --> 00:13:56,800 Speaker 3: the water around, remove the water, add water. You know, 233 00:13:56,880 --> 00:13:59,400 Speaker 3: it's a lot of cooking is just managing water. 234 00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:01,400 Speaker 1: That's very good point. That's a very good thing. Yeah, 235 00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:04,079 Speaker 1: because it really if you've got if you've got you know, 236 00:14:04,120 --> 00:14:07,240 Speaker 1: if you're boiling, if you're doing the chicken and you're 237 00:14:07,280 --> 00:14:12,680 Speaker 1: boiling some rice, and yeah, it's all water management, water management. 238 00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:18,679 Speaker 3: Right, yeah, water, so nothing will caramelize in the presence 239 00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:26,280 Speaker 3: of water. Right. When you reduce all these apples, you 240 00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:29,640 Speaker 3: reduce reduced reduce. It finally gets to a point where 241 00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:32,000 Speaker 3: there's no more water, and at that point it starts 242 00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:37,200 Speaker 3: to caramelize. But you spent seven hours reducing this whole thing, 243 00:14:37,400 --> 00:14:38,920 Speaker 3: and that right when you get to the very end, 244 00:14:39,160 --> 00:14:41,000 Speaker 3: you've got to make sure that you really stern it, 245 00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:42,880 Speaker 3: really stern it, because you want it to get this 246 00:14:43,040 --> 00:14:48,960 Speaker 3: like golden amber caramelized color. But you know, thirty seconds 247 00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:51,720 Speaker 3: too long and you've burnt it. And so it's like 248 00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:54,840 Speaker 3: this big, long process that comes down to this like 249 00:14:55,440 --> 00:14:58,400 Speaker 3: one thing right at the very end, and it makes 250 00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:04,520 Speaker 3: such a it's like the strudle is almost like candy 251 00:15:04,720 --> 00:15:08,000 Speaker 3: and they're small pieces, like little things like this with 252 00:15:08,040 --> 00:15:10,640 Speaker 3: like this like dot of filling in the middle that's 253 00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:16,320 Speaker 3: very like really bright, really big, just really good stuff. 254 00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:17,960 Speaker 1: You know, let's take a break. I need eed something. 255 00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:25,240 Speaker 1: What's the request you've ever received for a cake?

Outside, Yes, the crunch the outside. Sure, a 482 00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:51,240 Speaker 3: crinkle cut fry, due to simple simple geometry, has much 483 00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:54,200 Speaker 3: more crispy outside than a straight French fries. Some more 484 00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:57,840 Speaker 3: surface area, more surface area that holds more salt, more crunch. 485 00:28:57,920 --> 00:29:03,760 Speaker 3: So I would tell Luke to have a seat, get 486 00:29:03,800 --> 00:29:07,280 Speaker 3: your ass back there and make me speak.
