try to heat up the pan with the oil hot enough to make popcorn pop. try it with one curnal if it pops fast you can add the skittles and the rest of the corn in mayby that work . cus the skittles have no time to burn..
The noodle thing seems a lot like Hungarian nokedli or German spätzle. I think if the water was at a rolling boil and less of the batter was put in at a time, that would have worked much better
I've watched really latest video from How to cook that where she tested some things. So I knew the egg noodles and the coloured popcorn would end up horrible xD
The problem with the egg-noodles is that they emptied the whole bag in one go. A bit at a time, stir directly after squirting them in to seperate them, siv them out once they float, let the water come to a boil again (!) before you do the next batch. Also use salt-water if you don't use salt in the dough. But else it should work. EDIT: I just saw the Video from the HTCT channel and yes indeed, it won't give you those asian-Style noodles, but something I know as "Spätzle", but you really need a hard boiling water, which Mrs. and Mr. Barry actually did nicely. They just had to have stopped at the right time.
Included one along with ingredients to make doughnuts for home delivery from supermarket at start of lockdown. Got the sieve but no flour. 12 weeks later still no flour in stock.
@@angryorifice3201 Hate to say this but I have 4 sieves. A cone one for making jelly and 3 smaller 'hair' sieves. And if you lined a colander with cheesecloth, or a loosely woven tea towel, it would work with no lost rice.
I knew the egg stuff and skittles popcorn wasn't going to work because I saw Ann Reardon on how to cook that debunk it. You should watch her she's awesome.
I think I've figured out the differences between the hacks you choose. Mrs. B finds the ones that she THINKS will work. Barry finds the ones he WANTS to work.
@@zombiepika3118 I've heard before that roasting marshmallows is far less common overseas than it is in America. No idea if that's true, but this attempt makes for a pretty strong argument lol
I just adore this family. Mrs Barry cracks me up. Those looks that she gives Mr.Barry pretty much the same ones I give my husband. Please don't stop enjoying life. And thank you for sharing your life with us.
1st hack - keep fire a little further, so it heat the marshmallows instead of burning them; 2nd hack - sometimes people keep rice in flour or for example salt to prevent it from dampness; 4th hack - hack itself isn't bad, you just have to either stir or add less batter at a time or something, because it was turning alright at the beggining;
I just want to say that Becky is the best, most supportive wife ever! Putting random food in her coffee maker and always trying Barry's hacks and gadgets! Good job Becky!
Barry, you should do the noodle-hack again, but... Add to the noodles a pinch of salt and nutmeg for the taste and stir the water that it rotates this would help with the noodle creation :) also, you shouldn't put in too much of the batter...
The other problem was that it was making noodles when they were letting the batter pour out on its own but turned into a globby mess when they started squeezing the bag. Squeezing it forces more batter out which stretches the holes wide.
Honestly you two together are just adorable at times!!! As for that popcorn one, yeah, bit of a 5 Minute Fakes there, cos it's done with food dyes in separate batches to get their level of rainbow popcorn, ooh they're such cheats... :P
How to cook that debunked the noodle and the popcorn ones and found they failed badly. Go watch her video and see, she shows a way that worked for the popcorn. 😋 Any way really enjoy your videos.
4:49 just pour the contenders in a sieve as the holes are small enough to only let the flour through and the rice (all be it covered in flour but you can wast it afterwards) will stay in the sieve, it’s much easier and works
Oh man... I am jealous of this guy (but in a good way), he has a beautiful wife and 2 adorable kids, even his dogs are kind of cute. He also seems so happy always... Hope I get to build a happy family as well some day!!:) Good job dude!! It's not like I am gonna try any of your kitchen alchemies, but watching your videos cheer me up ^^.
I know the noodle recipe, I'd call it spatzle. I think you should only poke one hole and it needs to be poured out slower. Thats why it worked at the beginning... but when It came out too fast that brought down the temp of the water, therefore not cooking it through. I've seen professionals do it all at once using a sive or special pastry bag, but the water is insanely hot.
Ann Reardon (How To Cook That) debunked that skittle popcorn one in her latest video, but she does show how to do Skittle popcorn properly at the end of her video.
Maybe give the noodle one another try. At the begining with not so many holes it looed like it might work. Also maybe pause when the first noodles start to form.
Loving your videos mate absolutely great..... also just discovered your vlogs from a couple of years ago and watched them all..... gutted they ended they were awesome.... great work...much appreciated....
Barry, the noodles you tried to make are called Spaetzle, a german dumpling/noodle. You need to work in very hot, salted water and small batches. The dough can range from very soupy( like you made and what my roommate made) all the way to stiff enough to grate it into the water. I like to make a medium stiff dough and press it through a ricer(I have one with dies so I can choose how large to make it..)
I could be wrong, but I think congratulations are in order. I think quarantine is giving the world another Lewis... If so, then congrats to you both 🎊🎉🎊 Becky just has that glow about her and Barry mentioning rattles too...
Honestly, I’d redo the coffee maker one, but in the same way people do sous vide. Put it in a sealed ziplock with the butter, some seasoning like lemon pepper, and then turn it on.
The noodle one and the rainbow skittles one I'd seen debunked already on How To Cook That. Both her and Barry do amazing cooking videos, she's very much worth checking out. She's an actual food scientist as wel, so she can explain why these things don't work.
I've heard that putting some dry rice in with flour helps it last longer as it keeps the moisture away from the flour - I haven't tested this, but could be why you need to separate flour and rice.
I think the skittles thing might work. If you put the popcorn in and got it to just start to pop before you put the skittles in. Then maybe somehow stir it round while the popcorn is popping. That might work
When my cousins were in collage they used the coffee maker alot for cooking food since they wern't allowed to have a hot plate or microwaves due to wiring issues in the building they were staying in.
Actually, this "hack" with eggs and flour is legit Polish recipe called "lane kluski"(poured dumpling[?]). You make this big clumps of eggy dumplings by pouring it out of a mug to boiling veggie or chicken soup while stiring it. Oh, and you don't drain it, you just eat it with soup, instead of pasta!
Barry, ya gotta shake up the pan while the popcorn pops so that the bottom doesn't burn. Sidenote: I think for the Werthers, it was already hot enough that you could just turn off the heat and add the kernels, by the time the caramel was bubbling.
The marshmallow thing is actually good. I do it all the time. Not with so many marshmallows tough and you have to be a little patient with the blowtorch, don't hold it that close
The egg noodle one works better like that when you just do the egg without the flour. Mostly its used with just the egg like that to have egg "noodles" in ramen.
The noodle thing is basically german Spätzle :) but the water has to be on a roaring boil and you need to put less dough in at once. One might use a potato ricer for this, or an authentic 'Spätzlepresse' or 'Spätzlehobel' :)
The noodles is cook...but you are not suppose to squeeze all the batter in. Squeeze some, let that cook and take it out...then squeeze some, take it out and repeat. If you cook the salmon and veggies on the same bowl...you can make a very mild fish stock.
For the noodles the water must be boiling. When you start adding the dough is going to drop the temperature of the water a bit so it Has to be extremely hot do it slow and be sure to move the bag around. I’d add salt.
Oh Barry!!. If you cook the popcorn then add the skittles maybe. Please please please please let Mrs b choose The salmon one is good when you are in a hotel room with no microwave
The egg noodles looks pretty close to how I've seen spätzle done. I'm pretty sure if you used a larger pan and added the batter more slowly it'd work. (I'd also salt the water, but it wouldn't raise the boiling temperature much; it's more for flavor.) The salmon, on the other hand, a coffee maker sounds like the perfect way to poach. I think I may even have seen it before on a cooking show, but I can't remember where.
Hi Barry great video I think you should make a series where you make different dishes in the coffee machine it would be very interesting to see you try cook stuff in it
I think for the egg noodles hack, make in small portions and immediately after it took it's shape(2 mins max or when it floats) , take it out and cool down under cold water to stop the cooking. Egg noodles has a tendency of overcooked easily when left for a long time.
Those noodles you made seem to be basically "Spätzle" which are a southern German noodle. The water should be on a rolling boil to avoid the problems you encountered :)
At least in the USA, putting rice in with your salt shakers is a thing people have been doing for decades to soak up any moisture and keep the salt from clumping up. Maybe they're doing the same thing for flour with that hack?
The only way I can see skittles popcorn working is if you separated the colors and ground up the skittles like sugar and made it the way you would make kettle corn.
Watching the first one with the hot chocolate, and I'm thinking "add crumbled Digestives (or graham crackers), and that's a nice 'smore hot chocolate"...
Have a Barrathon & watch the other kitchen hack testing videos here ruclips.net/video/jdKv_PUEL90/видео.html
Think you should try salmon in the dishwasher when you get it
try to heat up the pan with the oil hot enough to make popcorn pop. try it with one curnal if it pops fast you can add the skittles and the rest of the corn in mayby that work . cus the skittles have no time to burn..
Check out Ann Reardons page. She de bunked the noodle and popcorn one and shows you how to do it properly.
your garlic will have loads of plastic particles, yum yum
Barry mate, I'm not too happy your garlic-grating hack encourages the use of single-use plastic bags. Save the oceans bro! - Jamie and Lydia
Alternate title: Mrs B tried to stay sane while Barry gets tricked by fake hack videos
"How to cook that" explains why the skittles popcorn doesn't work
And shows you how to make skittles popcorn :) great video as always
Same episode covered the egg noodles too if I recall right.
Its How To Cook That not How To Cook, fyi.
Ann Reardon from How To Cook That has debunked so many from this video, including the noodles and the popcorn
It's quite laughable how each popcorn piece is its own colour
I just commented that I watched the same video. 😄
The noodle thing seems a lot like Hungarian nokedli or German spätzle. I think if the water was at a rolling boil and less of the batter was put in at a time, that would have worked much better
Exactly. It also helps to stir the noodles in the water too.
Probably a single hole and stirring continuously had potential
Also if the batter has less egg.
@@TactlessC or more flour and a bit of salt.
Rozi K yea bc she started squeezing the bag hard. She shouldn’t done that.
I've watched really latest video from How to cook that where she tested some things. So I knew the egg noodles and the coloured popcorn would end up horrible xD
Same! When I saw Barry and Becky trying the same hacks I went "Oh nooo!"
The problem with the egg-noodles is that they emptied the whole bag in one go. A bit at a time, stir directly after squirting them in to seperate them, siv them out once they float, let the water come to a boil again (!) before you do the next batch.

She also showed how to do Skittles popcorn for real, but she said they really aren't that good.
@@peterbaum9367 The egg thin won't make noodles because there is no flour
@@MagnaRyuuDesigns There is flour, they put egg and flour, rewatch because they did add flour!
Mrs. B was laughing a little too much at "you cant get it in." xD
That slow build into the laugh is what got me, weirdly wholesome, 100% hilarious.
"Who doesn't have a sieve?" - Classic Mrs. Barry.
I actually don't have one....😔
Included one along with ingredients to make doughnuts for home delivery from supermarket at start of lockdown. Got the sieve but no flour. 12 weeks later still no flour in stock.
I don't. I do have a colander and it's probably work decent enough for this. I don't have any baking equipment at my student flat... Haven't need one.
@@JonVonBasslake no, a colander wouldn't work for this.. Holes are too big the rice would just fall out
@@angryorifice3201 Hate to say this but I have 4 sieves. A cone one for making jelly and 3 smaller 'hair' sieves. And if you lined a colander with cheesecloth, or a loosely woven tea towel, it would work with no lost rice.

I knew the egg stuff and skittles popcorn wasn't going to work because I saw Ann Reardon on how to cook that debunk it. You should watch her she's awesome.
I think I've figured out the differences between the hacks you choose.
Mrs. B finds the ones that she THINKS will work.
Barry finds the ones he WANTS to work.
For the first hack you need to put the blowtorch further away, because then it will get enough heat to melt but not to burn.
Exactly, the flame was way too close.
I was screaming at my phone move the torch.
When it's brown it's cooked. When it's black...
They genuinely confused me with this. I was just like "wtf? have they never ever in their life roasted marshmallows?"
@@zombiepika3118 I've heard before that roasting marshmallows is far less common overseas than it is in America. No idea if that's true, but this attempt makes for a pretty strong argument lol

Props to Mrs B for indulging this madness
Ann Reardon debunked the noodles and the skittles.
Difference is Barry doesn't subject Mrs B to eating the nasty gloop 😅
I was thinking he needs stop check her out before trying these. Lol

Oh you can tell he know the skittles one is BS, but it doesn't stop him form trying it cause he knows people like to watch this stuff.
@@katiejane8012 poor dave.
Mrs Barry is adorable... "where's the coffee maker?!" lol
Hack number two for those days the evil kitchen gnomes mixed your rice and flour together again but also stole the sieve this time.
Yay a new kitchen hack video been looking forward to this
Thanks Jackie
This video has bee so funny MRS B reactions today haha thank you so much for this video it has cheered me right up.
I can tell you, there were times in my life where, between a sieve and sewing needles, I was lacking one. And it was never the sieve.
" Theres skittles and popcorn..."
Just got flash backs to the "How to cook that" video where she disproves that hack
7:30 That sudden realization that the salmon is gonna get in the coffee maker is priceless!
barry's hacks are for a very specific demographic - super budget university student
1st hack - keep fire a little further, so it heat the marshmallows instead of burning them;
2nd hack - sometimes people keep rice in flour or for example salt to prevent it from dampness;
4th hack - hack itself isn't bad, you just have to either stir or add less batter at a time or something, because it was turning alright at the beggining;
I don't own a sieve, I haven't for the past 2 years, but i don't put my rice and flour in the same container... so I have no need for one
I've just realised I don't have a sieve either... Let's start a 'No Sieve' club lol
@@Rubbafingaz1 Unpersieveable!
Then Murphy’s law will happen and tommorow you will accidentally dump all your flour into all your rice and there lol XD
If you do ever end up with your rice and flour mixed here's my hack:
Buy a sieve
@@MonEyRuLess I've just dumped Sugar into my salt container... will your hack work for this, too?
"The rice lives here" that's so cute I'm dying
Thanks for making my rough day better :')
4:14 the way she starts laughing after that.. xD I get the "that's what she said joke" but something more seems to be going on there xD
She was having flash backs to last night 😜

Hi Barry, my Bosch Tassimo allows you to make tea, coffee and hot chocolate. I just change the nozzle each time so the drinks aren’t contaminated.
Just love watching how much fun you guys were having in this video!! Mrs B - I bet you have a lovely singing voice :-)
I always forget how short Mrs. Barry is as she's usually on her stool lol. I love seeing you both together, you have great chemistry.

I think the skittles thing might work. If you put the popcorn in and got it to just start to pop before you put the skittles in. Then maybe somehow stir it round while the popcorn is popping. That might work
Hahaha now even the marshmallows are on fire !

Barry, ya gotta shake up the pan while the popcorn pops so that the bottom doesn't burn.
Sidenote: I think for the Werthers, it was already hot enough that you could just turn off the heat and add the kernels, by the time the caramel was bubbling.

I would put rice in baby bottles to scrub the bottom to clean them (this was back in the seventies when there were no bottle brushes).
Mrs .B Is amazing
I just had an ad for Werther's Popcorn shortly after he talked about it. It's not even in this video. This is some RUclips magic right there.
The noodles is cook...but you are not suppose to squeeze all the batter in. Squeeze some, let that cook and take it out...then squeeze some, take it out and repeat.

The salmon one is good when you are in a hotel room with no microwave
3:31 Here (southeastern US), I've seen people put rice in containers of salt to keep it from clumping. Never seen it done with flour, though.

Hi Barry great video I think you should make a series where you make different dishes in the coffee machine it would be very interesting to see you try cook stuff in it
I stick rice in my salt shaker to soak up any moisture, stops it from clogging up.
Yeah, that's what I figured it was for.
The rice and flour is something my grandma did to keep the flour dry. The rice was supposed to absorb all moisture
I think for the egg noodles hack, make in small portions and immediately after it took it's shape(2 mins max or when it floats) , take it out and cool down under cold water to stop the cooking.
Egg noodles has a tendency of overcooked easily when left for a long time.
Those noodles you made seem to be basically "Spätzle" which are a southern German noodle. The water should be on a rolling boil to avoid the problems you encountered :)
You can read about Spätzle on Wikipedia, there's an English entry about them
Yes! These are some of my favorite videos 😁😁 this is gonna be a good morning, I can tell ♡♡
4:19 why do I have a feeling a "that's what she said" was edited out haha!
At least in the USA, putting rice in with your salt shakers is a thing people have been doing for decades to soak up any moisture and keep the salt from clumping up. Maybe they're doing the same thing for flour with that hack?
As we say in scotland... Almost.... But.... Who fished in your kettle 😂😂😂
The only way I can see skittles popcorn working is if you separated the colors and ground up the skittles like sugar and made it the way you would make kettle corn.
Watching the first one with the hot chocolate, and I'm thinking "add crumbled Digestives (or graham crackers), and that's a nice 'smore hot chocolate"...
It's funny seeing you do the noodles and popcorn after just watching a debunking video on them haha
Or use a sieve to separate the rice and flour
Asian : oh this is burnt food throw it in bin
Western: that's char yummy 😋

This is so cute that they are doing the video together
