Whether you want to make cheap, steep or combo it (like we probably do without realising!) here's how to make the lemon drizzle cake barrylewis.net/recipe/cheap_vs_steep_lemon_drizzle_cake/ and for more cheap vs steep recipes check out this playlist ruclips.net/video/5awtkLiSXHY/видео.html the cooked breakfast comparison was super fun!
Hi Barry! Just wanted to let you know that the recipe on the website says aster sugar twice and no icing sugar :)
My Mum makes this except she does the following..
a) adds poppyseed to the batter
b) makes a simple syrup of sugar and lemon juice and injects it in to the cake after baking.
c) makes the glaze out of icing sugar and Limoncello
Barry you need to do Steep v Cheep v Shop Bought v Ready Packet Mix
Uh you did the drizzle wrong you need to melt the sugar with lemon juice in a pan not leave it like a grainy milk
Who you gonna call?? Goats Butter 🐏🐏🐏
You should do cheep vs cheep trifle, because it has all the different elements (Jelly, cream and custard) to compare.
Will write that one down, nice one!
@@mrbarrylewis could you keep that trifle vegetarian friendly though? there are so many alternatives to gelatin. speaking as a vegetarian viewer who get's super disappointed when you make episodes with stuff I won't be able to eat :/
@@mrbarrylewis yes trifle for a Christmas special
@@rondonkulus and often the vegetarian alternatives are better, gelatin is just cheap :/ it's literally a waste product of the meat industry
Or even steep vs steep
I'm gonna pretend you released this on my birthday as a gift, which I gratefully accept
happy birthday!
@@mrbarrylewis Thank you! I've just seen my name in the credits as well, so this was definitely a gift 🤣
@@stuartmain3301 no worries, thanks for the support :)
Happy birthday!! 🎊🎊
I was amazed that the shape of the two were so different. The steep looked like it was made in a artisan bakery. The cheap looked like a mass produced cake.
Absolutely LOVE seeing such an orange yolk in eggs 😍 you just know the hen was happy and healthy! Know from keeping them years ago
When weighing eggs, remove from shell for more accurate measurement.
Thank you. I was wondering about that.
Came looking for this comment. But for this comparison they did the same for both so it wouldn't affect the outcome.
@@nadineklinkenberg163 It might though, as the steep eggs come from hens that are better nourished and therefore might produce tougher/thicker shells on their eggs. Caged hens are usually tricked into laying more eggs and might be low in calcium because of that and poorer nourishment, which makes the shells thinner. That might make a weight difference in the shell itself. Maybe just a few grams, but it might.
Cheap vs Steep: fish pie ! One of my personal favourites that I make fairly regularly, would love to see you try it!
Fish pie????? Never heard of it!
My favorite cooking series on this channel. Also love when the family joins you
I would definitely get free range eggs as a minimum. For everything else cheap is probably fine but I try to never buy caged eggs.
Yea same. I enjoy the cheap vs steep videos. But perhaps a point should/could be made by Barry to still take the welfare of the animals in mind during these challenges, even if it means that the "cheap" will be a little more expensive.
I agree
I used to be the same but I’ve heard that free range isn’t that as cruelty free as it sounds 🤷🏻♂️
This argument was what made me plant based. I realised the hypocrisy between choosing only free range eggs while still consuming animal products.
I don't really understand how anyone can approve of battery farmed hens though, it really is horrible and the product is of much lower quality.
@@TheKingOfBeans To be fair, even if free range isn't cruelty free surely it's less cruel than battery farming.
Ohhh I love this series! Also maybe a cheap vs steep pepperoni pizza next? 👀✨ I would love to see how that would go down
Chloe: please, daddy, PLEASE
I love the cheap vs steep videos!!!
Cheers
Goat butter doesn’t have that great buttery taste. It’s expansive for other reasons. Should have gotten:cow grass fed organic butter
Next time! Good info thanks
Also, goat's milk and cow's milk have distinctly different tastes. I would guess that might be true of the butter also. (I prefer goat cheese to eat but cow's milk to drink).
3:16 When Barry said "But for £1.55, you get a 500 kilo bag sugar", I died. 🤣
PS. Can you make cheap vs steep for savory dish next? Maybe chicken parm?
I was literally about to say the same thing 😂😂😂😂
Ooh, lovely idea.
No. You did not die. Hyperbole to the max
Here in Germany I get my eggs fresh from the farmer and they are always orange to dark orange. My dad came over from the US and called me over when he was whisking eggs for a scramble and said that the eggs were bad. He had only eaten store bought eggs that are yellow. He loved the taste of the farm fresh eggs.
I love cheap vs steep. Wish you did them more often
I always love how this gets more and more like an experiment each episode (measuring out the eggs and lemon and Mrs B following the same methods)
Loved the cheap v steep videos! And lemon loaf is my favourite from my Nan. I gotta make the steep, it looks amazing
Looks so good thanks for sharing
This series is my favorite. ❤
Cheap vs steep - Fish, chips and mushy peas?
My faviourite series you do, Barry! x
Another great vid barry thx
Lol it's my wife, high five. Best intro to date.
I should not have watched that. Lemon flavor is my absolute favorite and my mouth is watering. I WANT SOME NOW. 🥰🥰🥰🥰
They were AWESOME Barry Lewis obviously I haven't tried the cake but if I was to try both of those cakes I would end up going for the steep one
Cheap vs. steep is my fave! And lemon cake was my dads favorite.
This is a very good idea for a series
The Steep looks amazing! YUM!
I'm guessing it was mostly the lemons that made the steep cake more yummy. I would be curious to know how much the flour affects things, as I always get the cheap flour. Never buy anything less than free range eggs though 😔
Have a look at sortedfoods most recent video, they did a focaccia with cheap and expensive flour and they said it made a lot of difference
I bet those were free range lemons.
I think Cheap vs Steep are my favourite videos. 👏
Nice one Barry. You're nearly on the 1m subscribers. What a journey.
I admit I am an ingredient snob. Give me steep every time. 👍 Or at least when I’m serving it to guests. Looking forward to making this soon in the UK!
OMG, look at the cakes! 😋
"Down with the kids", good work Mrs B. 👍
Loved this race to the best drizzle cake 😋
Weigh the eggs without the shells, my daughters organic eggs are almost orange looking, and it makes a super yellow cake. Those look really good, love lemon cakes.
Love making this cake..
Mrs Barry: 'I've never ever put 5 eggs in a cake before'
Me: *laughs in 7 eggs for an austrian Sachertorte*
Traditionally pound cakes had like 12 eggs, lol.
Thats...a lot :D
@@TARDISJACKED Which is why some people call them "ton cakes." lol
@@TARDISJACKED like 12 or actually 12?
@@swanningabout Actually 12, lol.
I swear I've been craving a lemon drizzle cake ever since this showed up in my feed. For ideas, I'd love to see perhaps some savoury or sweet pies, and definitely a lasagna
That looked tasty!
oooo lovely jubbly barry and mrs, lemon drizzle cake is literally my favourite cake, cause im diabetic i replace the sugar with canderel spoonful it tastes near enough the same bit tartier though lol
I'd love to see a cheap/steep version of the lemon loaf where you try to make a really good version using only the important steep ingredients
Absolutely! Decent lemons and eggs make so mich difference to the flavour ❤️ butter and flour not so much.
I might have to try this
I'd love to see a Cheap vs Steep: Toad in a Hole!
I love Barry Lewis ❤️
"them some good yokes"
Shame we can't say the same for your dad jokes Barry. 😁
Hi Barry all my meals are cheap lol that's what we call saving money loving the video
thank you barry i akesd you a couple of week ago to do this recipe so i cna make it for my nana. Guess what i am doing this weekend
For future, when you measure eggs by weight for baking you should weigh them in a zeroed out container without the shells, as the shells can be different thicknesses and thus different weights but then you don't put the shells in the batter so you have broken your equal math. :)
Would love to see cheap vs steep roast dinner!
We use goats butter for everything regarding food love it when Mrs B in the kitchen with you xxx anita x uk
The Lidl’s carrier bag should have been 20p 😂 love these videos xx
Was gonna say that…. ;DD
warm lemon drizzle cake with ice cream. Amazing!
You should try a cottage pie, it's a well known dish and has different ingredients and possibly the meat could be different for each shop
loved the script ink thumbprint in the butter
Lovely comparison video. Odd that the lemons seem to make the largest difference!
Cheep Vs steep is amazing
I tend to go for cheaper for everything except meat, eggs and dairy and that’s particularly due to farming morals but i love these videos cause they are so good ❤❤ please keep making xxxxx
I generally prefer steep in the understanding that the ingredients are of better quality however some of the simplest things are the best. So it's personal choice
Guess what Barry, you are almost at 1 million subscribers
Hey Barry!
What you're seeing there in that orange egg yolk is carotene.!
As long long as I know it's the same componant that carrots has.
And they're feed the chickens with food wirh added carotene powder.
Explaines the color of the yolks.
Keep up the kitchen gadgets videos. I enjoy them so much.
Cheap vs Steep is the wife going "you spent how much?"
Also, “what on earth kind of horrible processes and shortcuts are being applied to UK foodstuff to reach those low prices?”
This video better recoup these expenses!!!
I would probably be very happy with either.
Cheap vs steep idea- meringues and/or angel food cake 🥞
Depending on the recipe, good flour can make quite a difference. The airiness that you noticed in the steep cake was because of the better flour.
One of my fav cakes......going to have to test this out myself (its an excuse to eat lemon drizzle cake but who cares) 👍
Thank you for the recipe, I'm going to have a bake off against my usual lemon drizzle recipe, which has more flour, uses baking powder, and has milk. I hope your recipe is better, mine is too complicated.
Can I also make a suggestion? Zest 1½ lemons not one, and spinkle the ½ zest over the cake before drizzling. If you sprinkle mostly in a circle near the middle of the cake, it will cascade down with the drizzle when it, er, drizzles - it looks epic and your diner can see that there's zest in it before taking a mouthful.
Cheap v steep, sausage, mash and onion gravy!
Or spaghetti carbonara 👍🏻
I love this series- although I think Choles Cookies needs to be a regular thing!
I used cheap flour to make scones once, they tasted like a bag of flour. I used an expensive flour for the same recipe and they were delish. I'll never use a cheap flour again lol
I’d love to see a comparison of plain bread made with different cheap flours. Though, that would be a bit different from the multi- ingredient steep/cheap format.
I meant to say different steep vs cheap flours, of course.
@@carodeux It would be very interesting. My theory is that the more expensive the flour the better tasting, and maybe longer lasting, the bread would be.
Of course I could have had a run of bad luck and my cheap bag was off or something but yeah, if you open a bag and take a whiff that is exactly what my scones tasted like 🤣 No amount of cheese or butter helped.
Mrs.B we have missed you!
3:12 B & Mrs B must be hecking *hench* lifting that 500kg bag of sugar :P
Yeah, you did get away with not being charged for the bag. Shops have to charge 10p for bags.
Every time I watch cheap vs. steep the main take away I get is just how much more expensive things are in U.S.
I think our beef runs cheaper here though.
I always use free range eggs and I believe the use of golden caster sugar made a difference, but I absolutely think decent lemons would make a big difference.
Goat milk and goat butter are amazing. Sheep yogurt is pretty good too! They are great alternatives for people who have cow milk sensitivities.
Aka fussy eaters
I love lemon drizzle cake 🤤
With the butter, apparently cheap standard puts color in during the summer as well as the winter, whereas organic does not color in the summer because the cows are feeding more from the grass and therefore the butter is not so enemically colored in the summer. Its the same here in Canada, all butter is not colored in the summer here, because outdoor cows mean yellowy blonde butter, but in the winter they color it so that it does not look the almost white that it would look like otherwise.
The lemon juice belongs in the dough, which makes it taste better and make it fluffier. I also make a lemon juice powdered cake mix that I put on top.
Cheap vs steep chilli cook-off. For cheap you use standard store brand chilli powder and for steep you'd have to use real dried chillies and reconstitute them for the sauce. Cheap veg vs organic for the base. Cheap tinned tomatoes versus expensive Italian tinned tomatoes,
Cheap mince versus finely chopped expensive steak. Etc.
There will be a taste difference, you will need to decide whether it's worth it.
You'll have to get access to a few different kinds of dried chillies. Might be a bit tough in the UK.
I've made chilli lots of tomes going both the cheap and quick and expensive and more rime consuming route.
I enjoy these videos and it is great that Mrs. B and the kids are so enthusiastic to get invilved.
I usually go cheap, but not with eggs, after seeing the horrific conditions caged hens live and die in, I could never buy cage eggs again
Agree. And the bonus is that free range eggs have more flavor.
You should try bergamot lemons. They are pretty pricey but OMG they taste so good.
The colour of butter can change with the seasons. The butter from goats can be as white as snow, when on dry feed in summer. (Australia). Develops a more yellow colour when fresh grass is available. I think most butter is coloured to a standard, just because we think that it should be yellow. Cage eggs are not my preference, however, they can put food on a plate for a family in poverty. Better that 6 eggs are available for 6 people, than 1 egg between them. Just a thought.
Do a cheap vs steep fish pie, lots to play around with there! 🐟🐠🐙🐡🦞🦐🦑🦪🦀🧀
If you haven't all ready made a video on popovers would you consider making one? If you have made one please tell me so I can find it. Thank you.
love lemon cake yummmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Wedding ring is baaaack 😄😄😄
Cheep V Steep, Egg Custard Tart
Both of those cakes will be greatly improved with being wrapped and left to ‘mature’ for a few days. They will improve in flavour & moistness
I feel under no circumstance should you ever buy barn eggs, the horrendous conditions should not be supported
Really? With such a light cake? I mature my heavy cakes such as parkin, but I didn't know the technique would work with a light cake. Gonna have to try this...
@@Gorf1234 oh yes, works wonders.
Do you count the shell when weighing eggs!
Is goat butter a UK thing ? Never heard of it before and I'm in Australia
You could try doing flapjacks 🤤
You been to Next mate? I've got the same t-shirt
Cheap vs steep - steak and chips?😍
Would be cool to see a combination of different mixtures of steep and cheap to find the best middle ground. Could be cupcake size so not making too much
One thing I don't always like about the cheap vs steep. Is that you go for cheap meats and in this one especially, the cheap, caged eggs.
I understand it's part of the challenge and "battle", but animal welfare should perhaps be a part of the challenge, even if it makes the cheap a little more expensive.
I agree.
I know this is from a while ago, but I missed it. Not sure how. In the middle of a Barrathon. I am compiling data and I am using this for background noise to make occupy my brain and keep me from going insane.
Apple crumble (with custard?) would make a good Cheap vs Steep
I was thinking Apple Pie...I'd love to especially see if expensive/cheap ingredients make a difference in crust.
10:07 how I feel when cakes been made
I can't tell - are the posh lemons unwaxed? and the cheap ones waxed, cause that'll make a difference to how your zest tastes if you didn't scrub the wax off.
think cheap were unwaxed, we did give them a scrub, I mentioned it in the video but didn't show that scene
@@mrbarrylewis Ah - I missed that bit! Thanks!
@@DaveF. Don't feel bad, I missed that too.
Cheap Vs Steap pie of any kind please! Tah
