Barry, coconut milk doesn't come from old coconut. 🤣 It's actually squeezed from shredded coconut + water. The more you put water, the lighter the texture. If you want to have a thick cream, just put a bit of water. Coconut doesn't produce milk by its own 😜 and this recipe looks like an Indonesian recipe called Telur Balado (but we don't use butter). You should check it out 😊

Bay imparts a resinous, piney flavor, slightly minty and tea-like that helps round out flavors. If your food feels like it's "missing" something, and you've covered everything else, add bay. You can also add a tiny bit of mint and thyme (in addition to the oregano), but it isn't quite the same.

My bay leaves don’t leave any such flavor. They almost taste stale to me.

The reason you need to mix the bicarb and baking powder into the dry is because they react with the moisture of the wet ingredients and start to rise before the dry is mixed in. This makes the final dish flatter and not as light.

I once saw someone refer to water as "nature's fruit juice". Definitely got the same vibes from nature's cereal.

Bay leaf fan/advocate here! "What is the point of them?" Where to start?! First of all, they keep their fantastic flavour locked up, until you fold or snap the leaf in half. Then the smell should hit you! (I always use fresh leaves, not sure if dried leaves are as strong.) It's a really lovely savoury taste, rich and earthy, that is the main flavour in british sausages. Also very important in stews and great when boiling or roasting a gammon ham. It's a main part of bouquet garni (used in casseroles, stews and stocks), and used in so many other dishes. I find when you fold or snap the leaves, it releases it's flavour much more. Challenge: try some more recipes with bay leaf, and maybe try some recipes without it to see the difference. Please give this cornerstone of winter dishes a fair trial!

Doing an oven pannukakku pancake is a viral thing now? Every thursday in army. Pea soup and and oven pancake for dessert. Lots of nordic recipe variations on the thing. You just stick it in the oven makes it easy. You don't need to use raising agents though or mix in butter and you can do it a lot runnier. Edit: you just usually eat it with jam, so normal version doesn't have fillings

@mrbarrylewis

Cool info cheers

Bay leaves are excellent for soups, stews and casseroles. Dried they are great for long slow-cooked dishes (put one or two in your slow cooker when you do your casserole). The long cooking really draws out the flavour and once you know about it your stews feel somehow lacking without it.

The oil was above the boiling point of water, so when you added the water in, it rapidly came to a boil, which is where the bubbling came from. This underscores just how dangerous hot oil can be, since it can lead to very hot splattering that's a burn hazard, and if the oil is on fire, adding water makes the flame splatter everywhere and sets everything else on fire too.

Here in Finland generally that pan baked way of making pancakes are what we'd call/consider pancakes(pannukakku). Though with the recipes I've used the result is not maybe as cake-y(if that makes sense) and usually bit more glossy looking, might be down to using more butter. While the "normal" pancakes are called lätty/lettu or ohukainen/räiskäle(thinner so more like a crêpe).

When catering and doing parties sheet bakes are a lifesaver sometimes. Pancakes, one with eggs, one with potatoes, you can do bacon and sausage and then everybody just goes and cuts little pieces or whatever they want. Put out milk or juice add some fruit and you have an entire meal for a large group.

Barry, about bay leaves: Make two identical batches of plain white rice, but put a bay leaf in one before you put it over the heat, then taste both, and maybe get your wife and girls to do blind taste tests. Bay doesn't really have a strong smell or flavor of its own, especially before its been heated up, but it does release something into the food that makes it tastier, and you'll notice it right away with the plain rice test.. or if you don't notice it, the blind participants probably will. It amps up the flavor of the dish.

I was also taught to do that to make sure the sausages are cooked through all the way. But I was taught to do it in the reverse order. You put the sausages in the pan, a little water, then once the water is boiled away you add some oil to give the outside a sear.

6:25 You either have a very bad source of leaves or... Because bay leaf presence is unmistakable in savory dishes. It gives them an earthen, peppery bitter taste which becomes very pronounced if you leave those leaves in the dish instead of fishing them out after cooking. To allay your incredulity you should visit a place where the leaves are dried. They are very aromatic when freshly dried.

Oven pancakes (the baked pancake) is a Swedish staple. Nice easy occasional dinner. Though the recipe most use includes diced ham and is served with raspberry or lingonberry jam.

I cook sausages with water too. But I add the water first, then simmer till it evaporates

The eggs with the butter concoction looks good. I think I would use one of the egg slicers and drizzle the butter concoction on top. At least that way you would have more surface area for the seasoned butter. The pancake on a sheet pan would be great for when relatives stop by and end up spending the night.

Tell your sis to put a half cup of water or so in when she starts instead of the end, then boil it off. That gets the heat into them early, and no oil splatter worries. That's actually the "proper" way to make longanisa, and works well for bangers too.

the egg one reminded me of a indian dish its basically a scotch egg stewed in a spicy onion sauce... but served with plain boiled rice.

I always wondered the same thing about bay leaf, until my mum got a bay tree and I tried using the fresh leaves from it instead of the dry supermarket version.

I use bay leaf in all my soups and stews. Love it.

The other thing you can do with a sheet pancake is freeze the portions and then microwave for 20-30 seconds or so and voila! Instant weekday breakfast!

I would quarter the eggs and drizzle the butter on them. Seems bit dry just rolling them in it. You can bake potatoes in the skin and put some of that spiced butter on it. It would taste great.

The pancakes are also awesome if you need to make a lot because it takes less time than cooking an equal amount of fruit pancakes on the griddle, and its awesome if you just want to meal prep breakfast for the week

My greatgrandmom from Italy the family for generations used bay leafs when packing/storeing things would break 1 up and scatter the peices around the inside of box it helped keep bugs away we still do it today works great then theres of course putting one in tomato sauce😊

Haha I love how the sheet pan pancake "recipe" is literally just baking a sheet cake.

Nature's cereal?! Ah yes, the famously non-natural food, cereal.

According to the directions when cooking Jimmy Dean package sausages (I think it's Jimmy Dean) put 2 tablespoon of water in the pan with the sausages, cover, and when water is gone lift cover and cook until golden brown. Regardless of the brand I always add a little water. I don't live in Kentucky I live in Arizona.

Bayleaf or laurel is a staple in the Portuguese cuisine. We put it basically everywhere, from rice (usually done with an onion, garlic, laurel and olive oil sofrito), any meat dishes, steaks, dishes with sauces, casseroles, stews, etc etc. Also, the bayleafs we usually use here are dried, not fresh. It has a very distinct flavour and adds some depth to saucy dishes. It's the kind of thing that if you forget to add in, it seems like something's missing but you can't place your finger on it. We actually like the intense bayleaf flavour so much we even use actual bay branches on a particular type of meat skewers. The bay branches are used as the skewers and carry a similar flavour that almost overpowers the taste of the meat.

We normally cook hotdogs/sausages in water first then add oil to fry once the water evaporates 😁 it makes sure the inside is cooked and the outside crispy 😁

I think she's got her wires crossed. I went to a food festival once and there was a BBQ cooking demonstration. It was suggested that if you're worried about burnt outsides and raw middles then boil the sausages first, you don't lose much flavour and they'll be cooked through. You then bbq (or fry) them for colour, being boiled also means they'll be more juicy. I think that makes more sense than lobbing a jug of water into a pan of hot oil!!
