      Jamie indirectly addresses this in one of his Q&A videos when someone asked how he doesn't put on weight with all the food he eats through his cooking - and the simple answer is, that he has to exercise it off (what he doesn't say is that he would have to do ALOT of exercise... for most people, its simply not practical to exercise away your diet).
      I imagine for many of the other channels you see, the presenter don't have the time/inclination to do the amount of exercise needed to burn of whatever they've made, so they can only take a nibble if they want to keep to a reasonable weight.

      @lacasalingadimoabit2317 Год назад +87

      I was searching for this comment. Thank you 🙏 Indeed the yolks have a very low water content and sugar is hygroscopic (it tends to absorb water). So if you pour sugar in the yolks without mixing, the sugar tends to quickly dehydrate the yolks and this results in 'burning' the yolks. To avoid this, it is wise to mix sugar as fast as possible when it comes in contact with the yolks

    With doughnut dough or else anything that relies on gluten development, you want to ideally use all the dough. You can't really re-roll it since that will cause more gluten development and makes the dough tough.

    @nellgwenn Год назад +13

    Just so you know fresh yeast is not a starter.
    Yeast, in this case (for baking) is a single cell fungus. It takes 20 billion yeast cells to equal 1 gram.
    In baking yeast converts the sugars in the flour to release carbon dioxide. The expanding gas is what causes the dough to rise.
    Primarily in the kitchen there are two kinds of yeast
    Bakers yeast
    Brewers yeast.
    It is possible to make bread using brewers yeast. But you can't brew beer using bakers yeast. Actually that would be a cool experiment for you. Make two loaves of the same bread. One loaf using bakers yeast, the other using brewers yeast.
    ****This next part is most important for you.****
    Fresh yeast, is about 70% water so it is extremely perishable. So store it well and use as much of it as you can before it expires.
    The other types of bakers yeast are Active Dry, and Instant.
    The difference being that active dry yeast is larger granules. Instant has been ground down to a finer texture.
    With active dry yeast it needs to be proofed in warm water or liquid because of the larger size. Instant yeast doesn't need proofing.
    Actually in this day and age neither active dry or instant need proofing any more. Chefs say that because that's what they were taught by the chefs that came before them and so on. They say that because of four reasons.
    One is because at one time only fresh yeast was available. And as I said fresh yeast is very perishable. So you test it.
    The second reason chefs say that is because the majority of chefs view their fans as complete morons. It's a small percentage, but it's there.
    The third reason is the chefs don't know you and never take for granted you may be a seasoned baker or cook. They treat every recipe they are demonstrating as if their readers, listeners, or viewers never cooked or baked anything in their lives before.
    The fourth reason is they don't want to get into a 1/2 hour lecture about yeast. Which I don't blame them.
    I personally use SAF Golden Instant yeast which I store in a mason jar in the freezer. As well as my SAF Instant Red yeast. I've never had a problem with them not working.
    The difference between SAF Golden and SAF Red is this:
    The SAF Golden is primarily for highly fortified dough. It works better in that denser environment of flour, butter, eggs, and milk. It's got a harder job to do to get past those barriers that can be a damper to the dough rising. Usually when I make an enriched dough I also use a helper. It's an ingredient that helps the yeast complete it's task. It also helps in browning. That is called Diastatic Malt Powder. I also use that powder when making rye bread because rye doughs generally don't rise as high as wheat. doughs in the proofing.
    I use SAF Red for non, or slightly fortified doughs. As in Italian bread, or French bread, or pizza dough.
    Actually you can make your own yeast. In fact you can add that to your list. Make 3 loaves of the same bread
    One with bakers fresh yeast
    One with brewers yeast
    One with your own homemade yeast.
    That could be a fun project for you.
    Anyway where are you on the topic of naming your food processor, mandolin, and refrigerator? We are anxiously awaiting your take on that issue,

    The pod left from your vanilla bean can be put in sugar to make vanilla sugar. Make sure it’s surrounded by sugar. It’s great for desserts to give it something extra. It’s really good on homemade doughnuts.
    Edit: NEVER twist your cutters!! Your product (doughnuts, biscuits, etc) won’t rise as much when you cook them.

    My grandma only used cake yeast in her baking. She didn’t trust the dry stuff. (Also, only Ceresota flour-many of the recipes we thought were from the old country were actually from Ceresota Flour)

    Spectacular! Also, knowing about someone's favorite little things is one of my few sentimental weaknesses. As soon as I heard this was cinnamon sugar I remember you saying how much you love that stuff. Don't know what it is, but I think it's just endearing hearing people talk about things that makes them happy. :)

  • @LLAWYERlul

    A tip for using leftover fresh yeast before it spoils: You can crumble it on a lined baking sheet, bake it in the oven at 160C for about 50 minutes and leave it to dry in the turned-off oven over night. Then you can grind the yeast up into a powder. It turns into a very flavorful roasted spice which you can use to improve the flavors for e.g. mushroom sauce for pasta or even desserts like apple cinnamon compote, it lends it a brioche-like flavor and is very versatile and lasts longer!

    **Warning Long Comment** After not having coffee for 2 weeks I had a big mug full and..well sorry this long chatty post is the result...
    This was a great video. I really love it when Jamie really enjoys what he's made. The progress he's made in his cooking is amazing. I had a close friend for over 2 decades that was a chef who handled things like Jamie does. He was a messy chef but great at his craft. He used to say that his mother said he was like a bull in a China shop, even as a child. He was much in demand as a chef in the city in which he worked. He wasn't the most innovative chef but he could follow recipes with an almost scientific precision and after making a dish from someone else's recipe exactly as directed he could tweak it the next time he cooked the dish and improve upon it. He was really great at reading a recipe and knowing how it was going to taste. I'm no chef but I've been cooking, making real meals, since I was age 6 and I've developed the ability to know in my head how a dish will taste by reading the ingredients and the preparation methods. My mother suffered from depression for several years, so my sister and I often had to fend for ourselves foodwise, we learned to do the shopping and some of the cooking before I was even in elementary school. I remember fixing meals for my mother and sister at age 6 and trying to get my mother to eat. After mom's depression lifted she became a working career woman and my sister and I were latch key kids from 2nd grade forward. While still in elementary school we often had dinner ready when mom and dad got home from work. I think our rather odd upbringing really helped my sister and I become really good home cooks. We can both take stock of what we have on hand and create our own dishes quite easily. I didn't have to learn to grocery shop and cook after I moved out of my parents home like so many of my friends did because I'd been doing it for over a decade already. I live alone now and don't cook from scratch nearly as often as I used too but I need to get back into cooking again and learn to enjoy cooking for just myself as much as Jamie does.

    Yeast is a small, living organism that gives off carbon dioxide when combined with warm liquid and sugar. Yeast is naturally occurring all over the place and different locales have different strains of yeast. When the Boudin Bread Co. went to establish satellite stores outside of San Francisco on the east coast, the bread wasn’t the same because the San Francisco Bay yeast is what gives it its signature taste and texture. The finished product looks absolutely incredible! I’m sorry the Timbits were being difficult (maybe you can give them to the Rogue Vacuumer upstairs...) I may just have to make this tomorrow. It looks soooooooooo good! Congrats!

    This looked fantastic and probably the close approximation of any French Laundry recipe I've seen on this site but if I have to guess, they probably used a milk steamer like the ones attached to most commercially available espresso machines to steam their milk and give that similar effect like in the book.

And the gribiche sauce that goes with it is a real winner on all kinds of meat dishes in general. Seriously one of the best things I've ever eaten.

    I appreciate making things from scratch. But a pro tip for delious doughnuts with less hassle from my midwestern mother, for when you don't have time to make batter from scratch. Pillsbury biscuit dough, cut the hole, and fry. Grew up on them, and still love them today!

    Once you split the vanilla bean, hold it firm on the cutting board and use the BACK of your knife (dull side) to push/scrape out the seeds. You should end up with a nice clump, about a tsp. Don't use the sharp side of the knife because it will cut strips off the pod, as you have experienced. Do it this way; you will see it's super easy and super clean.

    There is a culinary textbook that many culinary schools across the USA use entitled On Baking. It's basically an encyclopedia for pastry chefs.
    It covers and explains different flours, sugars, eggs, cream, butter, yeast. It also mentions either using cake or pastry flours for donuts.
    Also get plastic wrap from a restaurant supply store. The plastic wraps they carry are sturdier and easier to use than the kinds at grocery stores
