    Love the insight into the food chemistry & tasting science. I'm on a very restricted diet and it's invaluable getting insight into how to substitute butter in things and learn techniques like pat-in-the-pan crusts that would work so much better than trying to roll out and transfer dough with no gluten, eggs, or dairy in it (spoiler: almost anything would, since there's nothing holding it together!)

    This video is great and I've made the recipe several times, but whoever converted 1.5 cups of flour to 7.5oz made a mistake somewhere. 7.5oz is equal to 212g. The generally accepted weight of a cup of standard grind AP flour is 120g, so 1.5 cups would only be 180g. I don't know which one is right in this case, but that's a difference of 32g, potential error of 14% in one direction or 17% in the other direction depending which is right. If this error is just a matter of measuring the volume of "compacted" cups of flour (which could account for that difference in weight) then that should be made more explicit in the recipe. The error is present in multiple different videos and printed versions of this same recipe. Alternatively, everyone should stop using volume to measure for dry ingredients, and to go a step further, they should all be in grams. I'm no unit measure purist, but converting units back and forth and using imprecise measurements just makes for more inconsistent outcomes in otherwise delicious recipes, and can have especially disastrous effects when baking!

    First time I've ever wached ATK thanks to Babish. The substance of the videos and hosting are both excellent. But... the camera work is awwwwful! The panning and following at the beginning is like some relic from '80s TV cooking, and when you stop the camera to take the various static shots, put the brake on the camera! All the slight tracking to keep everyone central is highly distracting. There's no need for any of it. Keep the hosting and recipe standards up, lose the prehistoric camerawork.

    I made this for the first time last weekend, and I added lemon zest and a half teaspoon of almond extract to the crust. That may give the crust more of the traditional “sweet” flavor you expect in a tart crust. However, if you don’t, it’s still delicious! But I think the crust has the neutral potential to serve as a savory filling as well, say for a quiche or strata.

    The skepticism is understandable, but I've made various citrus + olive oil combos (orange, lemon, lime) over the years and they always turn out surprisingly yummy. An older gentleman once had a slice and he said it was delicious but he wouldn't classify it as a dessert. Oh well, to each his own, I guess (n.b.: everyone else at the same party was perfectly satisfied calling it a dessert).
