Good Eats S13E09P2 American Classics V A Pound Of Cake

[AeoenBeriatha]

1:34 clearly Alton doesn't edit his own episodes. "its'" doesn't exist in English grammar.

[crzykiltedepisco]

"left over pound cake"? That's like the girlscouts telling me that their cookies freeze well so they keep longer lol

[Loversreason]

Does anyone else see the paradox inherent in the phrase "leftover pound cake"?

[synicalrules]

Much as I love the show, but I don't think it can be anymore expensive to make than Iron Chef America, unless the latter gets serious funding.

@synicalrules

I think the lack of budget is part of the show's charm. It forces A.B. and crew to be innovative with their demonstrations, and often, I find the simple and silly methods they use to be incredibly effective teaching methods. It's like hearing a jingle in a commercial- it sticks with you.

[synicalrules]

@SchizoSchematic Au contraire - I read somewhere that most of the money AB gets from Food Network goes back in making Good Eats; but I still think he's just being cheap in general :)

[SchizoSchematic]

@synicalrules

Ah well. It's a great show none the less.

Best thing about his show, besides the wonderful recipes, are learning his techniques... I could never consistently make a good pound cake until Alton showed me the right way to make it.

[TheSnetty]

Did he ever do a trifle show?

[mikey2312]

@TheSnetty Sort of...he did a show on banana pudding. Which isn't a bad show, except that I'm actually ok with the crappy vanilla pudding + vanilla wafer concoction that you get at southern BBQ places

[antejenn]

Heh... "leftover" pound cake?

[jcoronet2000]

3:13 is his flour container (which bends to his will) actually an insert for the 3M PPS spray gun cup system???

[bobguy420]

@jcoronet2000

No those it's just a one litre portion cup. If you've ever worked in a professional kitchen those things are all over the place. I'm sure they have plenty of other uses besides storing food such as; an insert for a 3M PPS spray gun cup system.

[archangelkaz]

hehe mightst that be the Time Warner Cable Start Over option I spied?

[sabian1hhx1only]

i like turning my left over pound cake in french toast.

[iKhiavDim]

HAHA! He did the Stephen Colbert eyebrow at 10:12!

[asterixfan49]

he reminds me of Adam Sandler

[gymnast725]

golden brown and delicious!

[ToesAreAxxome]

Yes! I've been waiting for new Good Eats forever! :D
