Great dish 😋
Thank you and merry Christmas!🎅
Stock pot!!! Nooooooooooo…..
You've sold s lot of siphons my guy. Hope they pay you.
You left out corn meal
Oops
for the flambe method, can you substitute whiskey with rum?
Absolutely, any high proof alcohol will work.
Just love crispy pork pie pastry. Just been given two pheasant breasts and going to have a go at game pies using them, chicken & maybe ham. Just cannot buy game pies so easily these days - delicious with pickles etc on Boxing day - thank you xx
Ooo sounds good, let me know how it goes.
Wow. Mine eyes have seen fishy perfection! Thank you.
✌️
Please repost without the music.
Is the music too loud?
I think the last one is ridiculous 😂...to much trouble
🥜
You are a FKN LEGEND!!!! Cheers for this mate!
Haha glad you liked it.
I recently discovered your RUclips channel and thoroughly enjoyed your content! We'd love to see you creating videos again.
Thanks for the kind words, i have loads more to come. Had to take a break due to work commitments but videos will be coming out again within the next month!
@ChefBasicswithBaz I'm so happy to hear this
Would it seem weird if im the only person in the world that Doesn't like batter too crispy? Did i hear the world "Gasp?"
And how about soggy pie crust?
@ChefBasicswithBaz yeah, shhhh, flaky pastry does nothing for me.....
Why didnt u burn the alcohol? Hmm
It evaporates off anyway, alcohol has a lower boilimg point than water. Hmmmmmm
@ appreciate the reply, Chef! ❤️
My 1st time didn't go so well in college even with the chef doing a demonstration and a video playing. This looks alot easier to follow along and the angles to see the incisions are along better. I'll be using this video to help me practice before my practical for sautéing a chicken so Thanks for uploading
No problem buddy, good luck on that test!
@@ChefBasicswithBaz with your demonstration. I won't need luck. But Thank you I appreciate the comment
Simple puree-ing ANY fruit or vegetable will kill all of the fiber in it which is a waste!
I think that you may be misinformed here, depending on your interpretation of 'kill all of the fiber (or fibre)'. There would be no change to the amount of fibre. It would only reduce the size of said fibre.
Whippet batter. I’ve always wondered….
Wonder no more.
bro do a min on each side pull plop in flower and then back in the batter and finish with 2 min cook
always double fry chips and fish
Dude. This isn’t even close to be a fair comparison. Your final version is not within the realm of the others so duh it’s going to be different.
It was never supposed to be fair, just mega crispy!
Mix a lill hot cooking oil into the batter. It will make it crispy.
✊️
In the oven for 5 mins on the highest temperature.
Hello, can I make a batch of these and freeze them? they look fantastic, thanks
Absolutely, freeze before cooking and then defrost and eggwash before cooking
thank you so much!
Ty for the information I will use your recipe for my tle project
Good luck!
I like to use partial rice flour (or cornstarch) plus sparkling water.
Sounds good, when you partial rice flour, what else is in the recipe
@@ChefBasicswithBaz just flour & salt. Kind of tempura-like. It's also what I use for my zucchini blossoms 😏 I don't prefer baking powder, but a lot of people probably do. I'm just going for mostly crunch.
Dextrose. Just sayin'...
100% dextrose batter?
@@ChefBasicswithBaz To make an exceedingly long story as short as is practical, Dextrose is a solid analog to Glucose, so it won't negatively affect the consistency of the batter if substituted. Many batter makers use dense Glucose syrup in their batter, but it requires backing out some of the other liquids used to maintain desired consistency. Dextrose/Glucose participates directly in the Maillard reactions that give your batter that golden brown surface when there is enough protein in the batter -- as in, not using a ton of rice flour. This also means that Dextrose browns faster. Once the Dextrose exceeds the temperature range of Maillard reactions and goes above 160C, it participates in Caramelization, which requires no proteins as that reaction involves only the Dextrose itself. Just because you fry something at 160C doesn't mean the Dextrose is going to reach 160C right away, of course; that takes a little while during frying. Dextrose is less sweet than Sucrose and WAY less sweet than Fructose, too, so it's great for formulating savory recipes that need a Maillard boost. And if you're a pastry chef, Dextrose can be sprinkled on top of things like Lemon Bars and it stays snowy powder on top. I hope this helps.
@adamchurvis1 thanks, sounds like something to look in to
Do you let the dough cool right down? It keeps ripping when I put them in the rings
No, it will be very stiff and crack if you let it cool. Form the pie crust as soon as its cool enough to handle. It should be very soft and pliable
Thanks for the reply! I got impatient and put the dough in the fridge over night and managed to work it quite well. On another note.. are you using the fan in the oven? Mine are burning on top..
@dean2930 better without fan for this one, if they are colouring too quickly, just wrap the too in foil and continue to cook as normal
Amazing! That's for the help 🤟🏻
Any tips to prevent the meringue fron collapsing after it kept in the freezer?
Whipped but raw? Very difficult to do with any success. You can freeze egg whites and make the meringue with defrosted whites. Cooked meringue can be frozen but often becomes soft when defrosting as it will absorb moisture. Maybe someone else can suggest a technique that has worked for them.
Aye! Plates from hobby lobby?!
Could be!
I think all the double frying it is way too much work
Very simple recipe but looks delicious. And love the plating ideas too.
Thanks budddy
seeing what a brit calls "plenty of seasoning" is so funny. I put like a tablespoon of black pepper on most things i eat 😂😂
Haha yeah its absolutely hilarious!
you have way to many factors going on at the same time ... haha its good though. but each batter needs its own prep and food type, u might not want beer battered sushi or tempura steak. but that dose not mean either are bad or good for that matter because everythingisgood.
I like your way of thinking
Corn flour
Thanks.Very nice result on the last version so am gonna test it. Have had great results with beer/vodka batter but they can go soggy quickly. Does the yeast batter add texture? Never tried it. Cant wait to have a go.
It aerates the batter so yes, also adds some flavour to the batter
Vodka in batter
every time i put my meringue on my baked alaska, it slips off. am i not freezing the ice cream enough? is that the reason? also does any meringue work? if you could rank the best meringue to use in baked alaska to worse, what would the order be?
Could be that your meringue is not the correct consistency, i would start piping from the bottom and work your way up. Best to worst - italian, swiss, french.
@@ChefBasicswithBaz thank you so much!
@@ChefBasicswithBaz one more question, if i want to use an italian meringue for this, to what temperature should i cook the syrup? i usually bring it to 117°C (cause that’s what i learned in bakery school) do i stick to that? or do i go higher/lower?
@KpopsFatherTaehyung 121c is the golden number i use
@@ChefBasicswithBaz okay okay thank you!!💜
👍🏼👍🏼
They are all bad.
Please share your recipe oh wise one.
@@ChefBasicswithBaz Use Smedes visbakolie and visbakmeel then you got the best batter ever.
At the end, I often whisk in cold butter to the wine sauce. This is called Monter au Beurre and adds another depth of flavor. It gives a nice shine and velvety texture.
You are correct, this would be a great way to finish the sauce. For everyone else, if you do this then ensure that the butter is cold, diced and you are whisking in a couple of pieces at a time, this creates an emulsion. If done incorrectly, it can leave a layer of fat floating on top
So purée is just doing mashed potatoes, and pushing it through a mesh?
Yes but...french?
@@ChefBasicswithBaz I’ll have to give it a shot. Def something I need to add to my skill set
Dead easy to do, if you can do carrot then you can do beetroot, celeriac, cauliflower, pea, parsnip etc.
I switch back and forth from battered to crumb coating. I use saltine crackers pulverized in a food processor. Season my fish, coat in flour, dip in an egg/milk bath then coat with the saltine crumbles. Comes out crispy, perfect for fish sandwiches, or however you like to eat it. I guess you could substitute a bit of beer for the milk if you're looking for that flavor, but only if you plan to drink the rest while cooking. Waste not want not.
Where is rum in baba rum?
The baba sponge is made and cooked. while still warm from the oven, dip into stock syrup (equal parts sugar and water, boiled together) spiked with a healthy amount of rum. Leave to drain before serving
Brilliant!!!! I used to always use flour to knead and it made them so hard on the outside. With a stand mixer, mine were perfect but you have shown me how to make them at friends. Also, you have the only recipe that adds the right amount of salt.
Thanks! Let me know how yours turn out
Omg 😱 I think I’m going to ❤ H Salt and Fish yum 😋
Lard
Lard.
As a science geek I have to criticize this experiments lack of control. In particular the last method used.Had you added rice flower to all the batter recipes they would have been crispier when fried. So I consider this a failed experiment. The advantage of adding rice flower is it does make your fried batter crispier, in particular after its rested10 minutes. So there is no way to really tell if the last recipe was crispier as you did not add rice flower to all the recipes. Then you double fried the last recipe. A common method for Chips (French Fries in the U.S.). Again you introduced a lack of control. So to control your experiment you did not account fairly for either the addition of the rice powder or the frying method meaning no significant conclusion can be drawn as to which batter recipe is better batter.
No rice flower was harmed in the making of this recipe.
Not fair. He cooked the last one much differently than the first to. A good chef knows how to adapt accordingly. He did not for the first 2.
Would the recipe for the yeast batter work just as well if you reduced the quantities down to a quarter or half of those shown do you think? I'm only ever cooking for myself and I both hate to waste and can't afford to waste so I'd rather not waste if I can possibly get away with it. Unless it freezes well, which I can't imagine it does but really have no idea!
I wouldnt think it would freeze well. All these are fine to scale down but you will need enough (or a small enough container) to be able to submerge the fish fully.
@@ChefBasicswithBaz True! Thank you so much for your reply!
The last recipe involved double frying the fish. Even with French Fries this will naturally make them more crispy. So he could've just had a yeast or beer battered mix and did the same thing tbh.
Once I saw how you cut the onions I was like NOPE
Please do share your wisdom
@@ChefBasicswithBaz practice your knife work is step one
