Good Eats S11E20 Going Dutch (2/2)

[AmalgmousProxy]

I noticed the batter is very close to pop overs just sweeter, if you watch closely it deflated when he took the lid off @ 4.16

[RockZord]

Did AB just crack an egg on the side of a bowl? Blasphemy!



[kanibus08]

@RockZord It looks like he cracks the egg on the edge of the bowl at first, Atleast I thought so, so I took a second look. He uses the flat part of the bowl on the inside which is absolutely fine. You do not want to use any edges to crack eggs like the edges of a bowl, counter, or cutting board. However, any flat surface is OK.

Being gluten intolerant, I always make Johnny Cakes when I'm in a pancaky mood, and I use Alton's recipe, but with some changes; I replace the water with milk, and sometimes a little sour cream, helps make them less dry. And I never put corn kernels in, tried that the first time and didn't like it at all. Oh, and I usually top them off with a combination of honey and a little maple syrup, and melted butter.

[GrenMoyo]

@Hargiwald i think it's best if everyone stayed from Gluten and Lactose....Because everyone has an intolerance to Gluten and to Milk to SOME degree....so i could learn a thing or two about that....

[Hargiwald]

@GrenMoyo This is very true. moderate intake is best with these things. I've been to the doctor since I wrote that post and apparently I'm not actually gluten intolerant, but I suffer from IBS and most grains, especially wheat, give me extra "tummy problems". I am definitely lactose intolerant, though, so all milk products that end up in me are lactose free. Even so, too much milk can cause "tummy problems" as well.

[Rashardow]

the custard pie thing i made in the microwave accidently =D was just experimenting and it happened

[Zidana123]

My bf says:

no cakes

they are a lie D:

[northernlights78]

@Zidana123 The cake IS a LIE!

[seeky907]

Both the clafoutis and no-knead bread came from Mark Bittman

[feltwiener69]

For those concerned viewers worried about the mic working without electricity: IT'S A TV SHOW YOU JACKASSES!!!!!! This is not a historical documentary.

[SabbyGuy09]

@feltwiener69 I think the line you're looking for is "It's just a show, you should really just relax"

[Fetch26291]

@feltwiener69 Or, to put it more simple: BATTERIES. Cameras and mikes work on batteries.

[W0tanTheGod]

my mother made kind of "hoe cake" a few days ago.

was so disgusting.

[CherokeeTwilight]

Alton is my favorite Chef,but these hoe cakes were too salty. Paula Deens recipe is really good.

[tigerboyav]

then dont use as much salt and ALWAYS USE KOSHER SALT like alton says

[CherokeeTwilight]

no i followed the recipe exactly, used kosher salt like i always do, PAULA DEENS HOE CAKES ARE WAY BETTER, BETTER TEXTURE, BETTER FLAVOR.

[koonuy]

i just made some hoe cakes... took 5 mins. with syrup its pretty tasty

[kicktotheballs]

I can't think of Johnny Cakes without thinking of the Sopranos now.

[Lochtiel]

ugh those corn cakes were awful. I tried them and they need sugar or something. Too plain. The birds liked them though.

[DarkSoldier712]

If you'll notice, AB did eat them with maple syrup.

[gateboyatlivedotcom]

Ho cakes are traditionally a savory item. Some American Indian recipes are made from just two ingredients - tallow(lard) and corn meal.  Some recipes get "fancy" and add sage or wildflowers and some water.

[tigerboyav]

Lochtiel dude use freaking syrup

[cocoacorin]

I am so glad to see Hoe (sp) cakes on the menu.

[NoirMusic]

Greeeeaaaat alton brown does the NYT No Knead bread recipe...oi everyone is doin' it.

[mrmorganmusic]

I'm all about the Cooks Illustrated modified version of the NYT recipe. It's great!

[madman8199]

There's a similar one on Mother Earth News, kind of a hippie publication. Although it advocates a shorter proofing time, but I've found that to be a bit too dense, so I'm looking at a longer rise with that recipe myself. That one also uses unbleached flour--great stuff.

[leandralee]

maybe the mic works on bateries?

Nice programe. thanks for adding this.

[MrNgMichael]

wtf the mic works without electricity!!!

[majooismajor]

battery packs...in the back pocket...attached to the mic.

[TheJuggaler]

they're on a set they just turned out the lights

[ReasonGuysCopyright]

@TheJuggaler duh...

[Airea85]

I adore cast iron....:)

[47f0]

Agreed - I've got a Lodge grill, 5qt dutch oven and a couple of skillets - they've seen me through three hurricanes and resultant power outages - and they're great when the power's on, too!

[starian1234]

I'll admit I never really used my cast iron cookware until I became a hardcore Good Eats watcher, but I will never ever look back now that I've given it proper love.
