    Interesting. The reason you need to boil the mixture so long and measure until it is reduced to exactly two cups is because American heavy cream has less butterfat (and more water) than British double cream. If you can get your hands on double cream, it is faster to make and no need to measure to make sure it is exactly two cups.

    I downloaded a recipe for this on a British cooking site. And just assumed that double cream was our heavy whipping cream. It’s good to know because the recipe only called for boiling for three minutes. Which would never have worked with American heavy cream. Thank you for your comment and explanation.

    Their videos are well done, but very mellow compared to other big good channels like munchies, bon appetit, zagat. I’d say the recipes they chose are very traditional-American. Not as exciting, cultural, or creative, as the other channels. I’d say other channels definitely beat America’s test kitchen. Still fun to watch though

    Eh, they do way more "ethnic" recipes than they should IMO. People always hate and complain about them anyway, at least people online do. Normal people seem to enjoy them I guess. But I'd rather see lots of traditions American recipes on ATK, only done well. Bon Appetit has become very hackneyed. It's all about obsessive fans worshipping the hosts, like BuzzFeed kind of.

    This dessert is actually easier to make than this in the UK as their cream is already at the correct fat percentage of 40% to coagulate properly without reduction. The reason Tim needed "precision" in reducing to 2C is that in the US our cream is only 36% fat (too dilute) and we need to remove a minimum amount of water before adding the acid.
