This such a beautiful dynamic! You can tell that they love what they do and they love each other.
Omg Erin is so joyous and cute - and it was great to see her with her equally cute and talented bff 💓
Hey Erin,
Big Fan of your recipes, you and Claire Saffitz are my all time favourite bakers. Thanks for inviting Evan Coben, she is as awesome as you guys are. I am really smitten by the way she talks about the science behind every step of cooking. Definitely gonna browse more video by Evan Coben. Also, it will mean world if I could get a cheer from you.
Great weekend!!
💕 WHOOOOO HOOO!!!!!! 💕
The Romy and Michelle’s High School Reunion reference was too funny 😂
You two are so much fun to watch, more please!!
Someone else as amazing as Erin for explaining directions! 👏 🙌
Yay! Professional food people who say "car-mel"! My Midwestern heart rejoices.
You are an amazing, funny, talented, wonderful person Erin! I'm glad you have a best friend that matches your personality. Love your videos!
Erin you are such a blessing! I love how honest you were with admitting candy is not your expertise like baking. You are definitely one of my baking heros! Please keep being the wonderful you!
"OK I don't know how to fold broken cheese like that."
Loved the Schitt's Creek mention.
I love the amount of information you get from this video! Can't wait for part 2!
Watching best friends work together is so lovely!
I could listen to Evan talk sugars all day.
I LOOOOOOOOOOOVE the Romi and Michelle reference! One of the best movies of all time. I love your baking, as well.
Almond marzipan is my absolute favorite! I love it so much! But I’m intrigued about other nut marzipans!
These two are fabulous!!!
Fudge is life, caramel a close second. Love this, thank you Erin!
Thank you both! Excellent video. Fun to watch you guys together.
love the collaboration
I love Nikki Darling marshmallows!
Such a fun video. You both complement each other. I love the bowl and spatula cleaning break. Thanks Erin.
Oh yes!!! This is awesome! Been wanting to get into more candy making. My son loved making his own small candy so I bought him a silicon mould and he made some neat little candies. I love making small sweets! Already know Im going to love this Series! 🍭🍫🍬
Ok. I didn’t see that this is a 3 part program. You might imagine my shock to jump into one of my favorite episodes decorating cupcakes Your show is so delightful- and one thing that brings me joy!
Thank you. (When is the next episode of candy with your best friend?!?)
omg ive always hated marzipan (sorry to my dutch family..) even though i do like almonds. but now im so intrigued to make pistachio marzipan bc pistachios are my favourite
You two are astonishingly professional and inspiring ❤ I wish I sounded that much in love with what I do
You two are funny and good together. You should cook together more often. Monthly? Glad I found this post in time for the holidays!
Same here! When i learnt i could make my own marzipan, it was amazing andi, too, now love it! I was brought up eating bitter almond in many sweets but never liked it. Now i make it and flavour it with vanilla or even a little lemon zest and i use it like fondant sometimes too…never exactly as smooth but wow, you sure want to eat it (unlike normal fondant)
I had no idea what Marzipan was until now. LOL Love watching Erin with her BFF 👯♀️ 💖
Hazelnut Marzipan!!! love love love it
Thank you for this very helpful video. It's like taking classes and very informative
I was so expecting a candy making episode 😋 thank you 😊
You two are so precious and talented 💝
Great video! I've made a litttle candy but the explanation in depth has really helped it all make sense. It's Saturday morning, I have the day to myself, caramel here I come!
So excited for this series
I love this candy making series!!
Love your stuff!! Keep it coming
I can’t thank you two ladies enough for sharing your knowledge!! I want to attempt to make candy for our family Christmas gathering!! Priceless!!😘🙌🏼👍🏻
You two are adorable!
I have a huge macadamia nut tree that is producing nuts like crazy! I am going to make marzipan! I am so excited! I would have never thought to do this if I hadn’t watched your show.
Thank you!🥰
Omg this episode is a delight
OMG!!! I love this
This is such an exciting and amazing video. Thank you!!
Genius! Love how in depth this was! 💙
You look awesome Erin!
Ho, dang! I have struggled with candy making and I cannot wait to try again with these techniques!
I adore Erin McDowell.
You two are Fabulous 😁
I love the marshmallow heart condition. would a french or american marshmallow be better for hot cocoa? I am Erin eating the baked goods while making them, I loved it. Season with your heart.
Carmel is a city in California, beautiful one at that. Caramel is a lovely decadent candy and one of my favorite flavors.
I totally am going to make this I have a bunch of different nuts. I made a bunch of different nut brittles at Christmas. I also made some different glazed nuts
Romy and Michelle are alive and making candy!!!!
Great explanations as always.
Love you. Thanks
OMG this is perfectttt
Thank you for the video
THE ROMY AND MICHELE REFERENCE OMGG
So what is the hardware store hack???
Nice teaming.
So fun!😃 Can you swirl caramels to get the bitter and sweeter notes?🤔 Thanks so much! 🙌🏻
How would you make truly old-fashioned marshmallows using a marshmallow plant base???
20:37, lol.
Love how quickly the caramel was made. I had a recipe that took much longer to finish.
I don't like it when people tie their ties in the front. It catches crud, which then falls off into the food you're making. No, thanks. I would never buy anything from a place where they tie their ties in the front - it's like not wearing a hairnet or something to keep the hair out of the food. Just my $0.02, and something that most bakers and cooks haven't (for some reason) considered.
Other than that, I just love this channel. Thanks for going in a new direction today. Fantastic.
Edited to add: It was also really cool to get confirmation that your tattoo on your right forearm is indeed a vanilla bean!
Please make an episode about fondant candy!!!
I'm battling to find any reliable information about fondant and it's very difficult to found some.
I did make some base I'm pretty happy about but some clear information about fondant would really help , thank you!
I made the soft nougat and it was delicious. But there’s some critical information you didn’t mention: the 8 minutes of mixing made my nougat super stiff and difficult to stir in the powder milk/sugar. Also, how do you cut the sticky thing? OMG that was a disaster, I was cleaning my very sharp knife after each cut. And I really need a tutorial on chocolate dipping. I put my dipped nougat on a rack and then it stuck!!! And lastly, I found I had to move fast on the dipping otherwise the nougat would melt a bit and mix with the chocolate causing swirls on my finish. Lastly, I added a cup of toasted hazelnuts, wow that was good. I would add 2 cups next time though.
I always thought of marzipan as gross and it's definitely because of almond extract! I had no idea.
I've never heard of this kind of marzipan before - looking it up, I see this is French marzipan, as opposed to German style which you will find more recipes online for that's made with nuts, sugar, and egg white without cooking and is used in baking rather than candy making.
💖💖💖
I love Italian honey almond nougat and it's so hard to find, you please give me a recipe and is that paper a necessity when making it
??Super I don't know how to make candy at all question!! Instead of using the food processor why can't we use vitamix. My vitamix can handle cold, And hot temperatures. Low and high speeds??
Thank you for always going into so much detail!
Erin, how in the world am I searching for a carrot cake recipe and not finding one with your name attached? Maybe I’m missing it. If not, girl you need to right that wrong! 🙃
Oh, I’m on it! 💛
@@erin-jeanne-mcdowell Thank you so much in advance... my grandmother had a recipe that was lost. I've been looking to find something, and I find most of your 'mistake and how to fix them' sections great for me when I making things for the first time/ 100th time.
Ordered a new thermometer by the six minute mark. 😊
Wonderful episode. I have a severe corn allergy and cannot use corn syrup. What can I use instead of corn syrup when you don’t want the flavor the maple syrup or honey. Is there a good substitute? Thank you!
Try getting glucose syrup which is typically made from wheat. Happy baking!
You're h*ckin' entertaining, and really informative :-) I've been decorating cakes for 20+ years and still learned a couple of tricks. Wish we could be best buds IRL haha
Please make video Joe to make peanut butter fudge
20:52 Eating marshmallows is also a great way to soothe a dry or sore throat ;-)
Internally I call caramel the dairy included confectionery, carmel I call the pure cooked sugar before dairy is added or the industrial carmel colouring
Erin, I just checked out a Cook Book for Baking, from the Library. Are you Affiliated with the book called Food 52?🤔❤️
Not Erin & I'm not sure about that particular book, but I do own both of Erin's books and they're wonderful! They are titled 'The Fearless Baker' & 'The Book on Pie'.
@@rumbleinthekitchen_Amy yes, she's awesome 😘😘😘
Does anyone know if Golden Syrup from the uk works as a substitute for corn syrup?
I think it would stop crystallizes but does have a fuller, richer flavour. Corn syrup is such sweet, blandness in my opinion. I am not a candy maker though.
Erin, love your Book on Pie. My biggest wish is to see candy,chocolate,cakes, pies, etc., made with Erithrytol and Xylotol more and less sugar cane. Is it possible.
Bake it up a notch with Erithrytol and Xylotol please
What is your favorite recipe for making pipable marshmallows?
Evan's link you put on here does not work. Is there another way to see her candies and website (I have no Facebook)?
My problem with corn syrup is that my dear friend is deathly allergic to all corn products. Yes, even cornstarch.
I have the same food processor and I love it but it feels backwards. Im a Chef and I brought it to work and someone broke it😢 by jamming the top backwards😢
It can still work if you press the little safety spring down with a chopstick. ❤
“Care-a-mel” 🇺🇸 🇬🇧
For the recipe measurements is found where?? Please
Hi Stephanie! Thanks so much for watching, all of the recipes are linked in the description!
why not dissolve the sugar in the water first before adding to the pot?
It depends on the recipe, but there is often not enough water to fully dissolve the quantity of sugar being cooked!
THIS ALL INFORMATION FOR FREE?? FOR REAL??
Wish you didn't do a to be continued I would have been happy with a long video
Thank you for putting up you hair. A lot of videos of people cooking has them with these wild hairdo's, and they keep touching it and the food! I may not be tasting their food but that's just nasty. Who cooks with their hair all over the place? Love your thorough tips.
I say car-a-mel
Allergic to corn, which is not as uncommon as you might think. So for some of us, corn syrup IS evil!
Should also add that I love your videos because you offer so much good info.
I don't know who did your sound, but they made a lot of mistakes in the balancing of each person's sound. I am not sure why one person is always off-mic. it's not that hard to bring in a track to have everyone sound just as good.
Good video, but who else hears "deez nuts" when talking about marzipan?
I'm a side effect I knew it
Suggestions from a person with misophonia - maybe mute the audio from a person sniffing, because it's a sound that sets me (and people like me) off. Both people are miked, so hopefully it shouldn't be prohibitive to take the sniffing sound down. Great episode though!
Why do Americans pronounce the t in nougat? In every other country it's pronounced noo-gaaa
Because that souds like something falling out of someones mush mouth?
Erin - I am going to miss your videos. I unsubscribed after seeing the previous Food52 video of a guy who suddenly showed up dressed in sequins. I didn't know what that had to do with cooking and was surprised by it. But I really have loved watching you in the past. I watched all of your videos and learned so much. Thank you.
I agree, what does that have to do with cooking? By which I mean, why do you care if someone wants to dress in sequins? Anyway, not to worry, no one will miss you.
Midwesterners call it
car-mel….🤎
