243 Layer Butter Toast | Anything With Alvin 

fun fact. Danish creamery, despite its name, is made in California and is not sold or produced in Denmark

That shot of Alvin with his hood up and apron and gloves on makes him look like he just stepped out of the Breaking Bad lab

"Hey Danish Creamers, wanna sponsor me with butter?" "Sure, how much do you need?" "Yes."

I love how instead of just your typical one recipe and done, this channel makes two whenever there's edible scraps.

I love learning new ways to use scraps. I hate throwing away and wasting food.

they got sponsored by butter and went all out and it is fantastic

Imagine a series where Alvin revists some of these recipes (like Botched) for another try called "Again with Alvin"

"So how much butter went into these layers?" "Yes."

The other reason the bread wasn't as springy other than the high heat is that you need to let the bead cool to room temp for about along as it was baking. I like fresh, warm bread as much as the next guy, but the reason for making multiple breads is so you can eat one warm while the others cool so they can form their texture and flavor more. I was taught it's because of the steam, it makes the bread wet.

I feel like I just watched a nine minute commercial.

Did anyone else get a Danish Creamery AD just to start the video and see that it's ALSO sponsored by Danish Creamery?

Kouign-amann literally means "butter cake" - and it's awesome! Totally worth your time to make if you've never had it

It's like croissant, but with brioche dough, and in a cube.

Needs more layers

As a Dane, I have never heard of Danish Creamery.

Another great butter option is Vital Farms. 85% butterfat just like Danish Creamery and supports independent American farms. Comes with a premium but the taste is well worth it. Not sure I have seen Danish Creamery on any shelves here in Nashville, but if I do, ill give it a try!

To quote Jake, the dog from adventure Time: I used so much butter, this whole place is butter!

“BUTTERED TOAST!!! - Ed, Ed,Edd&Eddy

Ed would be proud of you

Alvin has to be one of the best additions to the BCU, love his videos

What I like about the anything videos is that Alvin never lets anything go to waste.

LOVE butter and toast! Perfect combo

I love stuff like that! I think I might even try this myself. Just got to find these containers.

I love watching those channels. Those food making ASMR's are so calming.

again, cant state it enough, I really respect you putting an emphasis on sharing what you make with friends instead of the individually overconsuming or being wasteful.

Now this is the type of simple meal I can actually make from this channel. Very nice.

Still can't beat simple toast with butter at 2am in the morning .

ALVIN!!! I hate waisting anything so I appreciate you showed what you did with your scraps. I will definitely do that.

I love the super dark crust, reminds me of my local Japanese bakery where I get my shokupan from (they also do a croissant/brioche-style dough)

So many of these videos involve videos from real restaurants and bakeries- I’m gonna need Alvin to make a list of all the places in the inspiration videos so I have a travel bucket list 😂

"Hey boss, do you think we can pack in a few more layers to make it an even 250?" John Mulaney talking as a flight attendant: "NNNOOOOOHHHH!"

Baked in a buttery flaky crust 😎

I'm gonna be honest, when I saw the thumbnail I thought it was making a massive 3 Musketeers bar. Thankfully, I am not disappointed by the incredible butter toast.

Only Alvin Zhou, can make a video about making a burnt block of butter entertaining

and here I thought they were gonna make toast and then put 243 layers of butter on top.

I prefer my butter salted. One can skip any salt a recipe needs, or at least cut it in half. A slice of butter on warm, fresh toasted crumpets with a drizzle of honey over it is a nice treat. Probably even better with home-made crumpets, but I get store-bought.

I absolutely love how Alvin always uses the scraps to make other things - same here, at the very least, it becomes Chef's snacks....

Thank you guys for always adding perfect subtitles!

“All toasters toast, TOAST” -Hotel Mario April 5th 1994

I'm more excited about the scrap pastries than the actual bread

I wish I had the patience to make a recipe like this

It's nice to see that despite it not being perfect, he still leaned into the finished dish and enjoyed it. 👍

I wish the bakeries in my city made something like this.

Well...I was gonna get some sleep before work later, but I see another Alvin video. So sleep can wait.

"butter and toast eddy,butter and toast" 90,s kids will get it. i didn't know butter toast was a thing... but I'm not surprised

I took my glasses off to put on a sweatshirt while you were examining the cubes' bake and it looked like you were pulling apart a brisket

That looks awesome. Just like all the recipes

Hello Andrew, I just saw you on JOLLY so thought I'd pop over and check out your channel. I like what I've seen so far so you now have a new subscriber from UK 👍🙂.

yall oughtta have an Ingredient highlight series

Love your vids Alvin.

You rockin a Breguet there Alvin? Classy. Love it.

Ed: BUTTER TOAST!!!!!

Somewhere in the world, in some cartoon culture-de-sac, Ed is consciously licking his lips.

could you link the reference video? it looks like a comfy watch

Alvin gained 5 pounds that day...

I couldn't quite tell what watch you're wearing, but it's beautiful!

Got to say really love the no-waste policy! Growing up in a heavy no-waste family whenever I see cooking videos where they just discard the scraps just gives me like anime eye twitching 😅

you should do a part 2 where you use a different bread recipe, and make jam!

My favorite butter and toast

Hi from Taiwan. Always enjoying Alvin's cooking and fantastic job!

Grimes would love this!

I miss Anime with Alvin. I want him to make Nino and Miku’s dishes from The Quintessential Quintuplets

Kaela looks so elegant and cute!

Looks delicious

I would love to see a part 2 of this where you try again

Alvin always looks like he just broke in to steal a quick bite

That Breguet Enamel! Nice watch.

So many layers.........🤩

I love the way you sing

You suould try to make brioche feuilletée ! It's basically layered brioch but instead of a square you make a nice swirl

Rigby and Mordecai would probably risk their life for that

Ed must never know this.

Drinking game: take a shot for every time this dude says "Go ahead."

I think part of the reason we're not seeing the layers as clearly is because the bread was cut when it was hot

Do the Sumire-Dori Karaage Chicken wraps from Food Wars. The chicken from Mozuya looks delicious, but Soma's chicken is mouth-watering.

So much Butter went into this dish that Danish creamery cost just went up another $2 because of this video. But it's soooo worth it.

Sponge candy recipe maybe? I loved those since I was a kid and it would be so much fun to try and make it

Been watching for a while and I think it would be awesome if you guys could do a series on diabetic or keto friendly recipes. Like being able to convert them over. Because it's a type one I'm looking at this and it looks delicious but I'm sitting here going I can't have that without a lot of insulin.

What sort of pans were used to bake the butter toast?

It looks like you might have sliced into these a little too early, which might have affected getting each of those layers to really stand out.

French funfacter here! i have 3 funfacts for ya today about what we saw in the video: - first, salted butter is very well known in France and kind of a speciality. Why? Cause its made mostly in Brittany (Bretagne), other part of France doesnt use it and dont produce it anymore cause one day, a king decided to tax salt. Everyone was using it to salt butter, and they stopped, but people in Brittany didnt want to and started a riot. They got exempted from the tax and they could continue to produce it with salt. Now, its very famous that only that part of France is using it. Same thing happened with driving tax and Brittany (Bretagne) is the only place you dont pay those taxes when you drive a long or short distance in France in highways. - Then, to talk about Bretagne again, Kouign-amann you did in the videos with left overs was created in Bretagne with left overs too! We are not sure how or why, but its maybe because flour was pretty rare and expesive, but not butter and sugar. Someone tried to so a puff pastry with a different ratio than usual and ended up with this and like it. Its usually make with left overs!

My mind went right back to that burnt croissant episode.

Asking again for the incredible Capixinha, the capybara shaped coxinha!

I missed what kind of butter it was, why didnt Alvin mention it?

Oh that’s so yummy

I know he probably wanted to get the video done but with something like this it's really worth letting it cool before cutting so th layers/texture doesn't get squished as much.

Ed liked this!

Alvin's voice is calming. We need more episodes with him...and the butter!

Team: So Alvin, these taste awesome but do you have any idea how many calories are in there? Alvin: Heck yes!

is it like croissants? if so looks delicious 🥰

Ed would love this

You should make Onion Graten from Boku no kokoro no yatsu yabai

Why is Alvin absolutely jacked 😭

Reminds me of the 324 layer crossiant from the Anime, Yakitate Ja-pan...

yum, butter. the inside looks delicious.😋 can you make Kirby's strawberry shortcake

I thought you were doing a reference from Ed, edd and Eddy since ed loved butter toast 😂

Great video 👍

“Get the Toast Cubes!” - me Baking in 2024

What's the name of the pastry you made with the scraps? I didn't catch it and the cc didn't help

The scrapes reminds me of Yorkshire pudding.
