That is amazing! I just looked it up! It's like the Ritz cracker (water biscuits) apple pie concept, one that I've been wanting to try for years. *adds to list of recipes to try*
@@PokhrajRoy. I imagine Jamie's power would be based around steak, Barry's maybe the ability to set stuff on fire? Not sure on Mike's, Ben's or James. Can you tell I'm bored?
I'm currently going through an eating disorder, watching this channel has helped me gain my interest and appetite back during my recovery❤ really appreciate every video, the enthusiasm for food is foreign to me, but watching this while I eat helps me immensely
People that say "like for part 2" and then dont't link the part 2 either in the comments or over the sound deserve their sleeves to fall down while they wash their hands >.
The pie recipe is based on The Great Depression Water Pie. It was a recipe used when people were lacking in ingredients and money. Maybe you guys can do an episode about similar recipes.
I was disappointed in their coverage of the sprite pie. I don't know if the recipe they followed was different or if it was the cherryaid, but emmamade/emmamadeinjapan made that sprite pie 3 months ago. Hers turned out fine and she said it tasted good. Baz's comment at the beginning about no one liking it and that he didn't know it wasn't supposed to taste of sprite just made me feel like they didn't do their research.
I know this is 3 years later bit I'd like to see them try Ritz cracker mock apple pie. It was a depression food but my mother and grandmother have both made it when I was younger. The weird thing was. It tasted like apple pie. Texture off a bit but flavor was very good. But my mother also used to make a zucchini mock apple pie that also tasted like apple pie. In the 70s I remember my folks being on strike at their company several times and the budget going very tight. We never starved bit we had some very "unexciting" filling stretch the budget meals. Unfortunately my mother was fond of hamburger helper type one pot meals. But there were 9 of us. 6 girls one boy and mom and dad. The only one meal I know we all enjoyed was the hamburger macaroni goulash. When times get tough the burger ratio went down lol. But its basically browned burger woth onions then add several jars of home canned stewed tomatoes (we always had a huge garden ) garlic and occasionally Italian herbs (or chili spices)and as much Macaroni as the stock pot held. We still have this once or twice a year.
Take on the Takeaway challenge: The chefs can order their favourite takeaway and the normals have to cook it, with recipe and have it delivered before the takeaway. 3 possible points: is it similar in taste? Was it faster? Was it cheaper?
There was a German cooking show called "Das Fast Food Duell" that basically had the same concept (except chefs cooking) . And based on watching that show I can say: great idea!
Add ten years and I'm in the same boat. I usually call them sprinkles which I know is kinda vague since there are different types of sprinkles, but I know there are at least a few other names to call the ones they used.
We can definitely say he delivered on that promise too. That pie.....that pie was sad. On the flip side, I suddenly had the thought of trying a lemon meringue pie that uses sprite along with the lemons and stuff. Kinda curious how such a recipe would turn out.
@@porakiyadraekojin3390 that definitely would be interesting. I don't know much about making pie but I feel like you could make it work by subbing sprite for something in the recipe. On a side note I feel like the pie would've worked had they used less soda and corn starch with the flour. I know they were doing a straight recreation but I'm thinking more of a practical version.
from what I know is that water pie is actually a thing it's just for tiktok they swapped water for a soft drink. I just can't imagine how it actually tastes.
There’s a recipe born from the depression that’s a water pie, yeah. Only differences I see being the sugar and flour are sifted together prior to being sprinkled in, and the butter isn’t shredded, it’s thin slices from a butter stick. It’s not a huge difference, but it’s enough of a change that it ruins the final product. Water pie is fine and impressive enough on its own. No need for soda lol
This is definitely water pie made with a soft drink, but it shouldn't have had sugar added. A flat soda is syrupy-sweet. This has to have made their teeth hurt.
Omurice. Rice's cheap, you can use whatever stuff you want in it (when I lived in dorms, I used bacon pieces and peas), the only flavouring besides salt is ketchup (I know, I know, but the Japanese actually do it that way!), and eggs are cheap too. In general, if you stock up on rice, lentils, beans etc., you have endless options.
@@SortedFood or have the longer time(30mins per person for example) but require the use of slower cooking methods like a slow cooker or a water bath and the use of things that take longer to cook, like a beef roast or a brisket.
“Maybe we’ve failed” Just do a water pie! It’s a legitimate recipe that actually works, I promise. Just skip the soda part. It probably has ingredients in the soda itself that’s messing with the final product. If you follow a water pie recipe, it should hold its shape just fine.
Saw Ben's IG post about the SORTED crew Josie & John Ford onsite and then Ed Neely and Izzy Stocker working mad hours behind the scenes (had to go double check names soz lol) Reminded me how it's not just 4 mates having a cheeky go at cooking, that it's a whole THING and prolly a logistical nightmare during COVID. Cheers for keeping up the good vibes on camera guys.
In Germany we have a cake called "Fanta-Kuchen" which translates to fanta-cake (yes, the orange lemonade from CocaCola) where you put Fanta into the cake-batter. It's very common for children birthday parties
@@capness1228 I maybe chose the wrong word to describe it, but in Germany fanta is called Orangen-Limonade which literally means orange-lemonade. In Germany we use the word Limonade to descibe a fruit soda.
For those wondering about the conclusion to Barry's sprite pie: It worked and looked like a jelly inside the pie, but tasted the same. Barry forgot to mix sugar and flour together, hence it messed up in the video.
It's one of my favourite bits of this opening sequence. (He's actually saying, "Ben, it's not worth it!" - meaning it's not worth Ben losing a finger on that dodgy appliance.)
@@fionaclaphamhoward5876 oh my god i did not know it was from there! I also love that bit in the opening of pass it on videos where he yells “WHERE’S???? THE DISH????”
What exactly is wrong with baking cake in a loaf tin? ^^ To me that's like the most standard shape for a cake - or is that actually uncommon in Britain? 🤔
@@SortedFood A lot of loaf cakes in the U.S. are actually called "quick breads" - banana bread, pumpkin bread, zucchini bread, are a few. Maybe calling them bread is to convince ourselves that we aren't actually just eating dessert. 😄
Are they though? The cheese sticks we have here (known as "string cheese") are mozzarella, those cheese strings appear to be some other kind of cheese.
I just made my first meal with the Packs app!! I’m already so excited for what it means for the future of my cooking 😂 i love how connected the recipes are without making it seem like you’re eating the same stuff every night
I want a sorted video that’s just Barry being given a prompt (Random words/ingredients) and then watching him make a dish while Ben gives him false confidence. You can call it ‘Maximum Carnage’
I'd like to see updated foods from history. Make a Chicken ala King, not like something from a hotel buffet in the 1970's, or WW2 rationing meals with the same ingredients, but actually infuse flavor.
I'd love to see that since a lot of RU-vid food channels I follow that do old recipes (i.e. Townsends, Tasting History with Max Miller, Glen and Friends, and Emmymade) rarely/never do fully updated versions of the original recipes. They do mention substitutes for ingredients that might be hard to find or no longer available these days and/or say to use less or more of certain ingredients since a lot of stuff (especially spices) are very different now than they were back then, but I don't think I've ever seen them do their own take on it to improve on parts that might be lacking.
That cheese stick thing... fill the cheese with the crunchy stuff like a marble cake then carefully do the rest with eggpanko as normal (or beer batter) you get a much more fun result. You'll need to heat the cheese once to seal the marble maybe. You can use a single layer of filo wrapped around the flavor coated and flavor filled marbled cheese stick too. Then coat that with panko. In fact, just coat the marbled cheese with panko and wrap with filo and panko until you think your fryer can barely handle it, warm the bad-boys up in the oven to 60C over an hour then fry em. FCUK tiktok.
The Sprite (Cherryaid) pie is based on Water Pie, an American dessert from the Great Depression. Basically it was a dessert for people who literally had nothing but the very basic flour, sugar, butter, and water but still wanted to make a treat for their families.
You wrote this a long time ago, but I just came across this video and I am left wondering: what does the water add? With flour, sugar and butter you can make great cookies so why make it soggy?
@@Snowshowslow It makes the filling turn into sort of a jellylike consistency, more reminiscent of a pie filling. I believe it just came about because people wanted some more variety in what they were eating and were trying to come up with new, inexpensive recipes using the same limited ingredients they had on hand. Or at least that's how my great grandmother explained it to me!
Okay, you guys HAVE to do an episode on *DUMP CAKES* please!! Buy the Cathy Mitchells Dump Cake cook book and pick a few to do, it's insanity! (Would be hilarious)
Jamie: "Did he just say 'a good parsnip cake'"?! That was my first reaction as well, but to be fair, someone also came up with carrot cake and zucchini bread, so are we really surprised?
EmmyMade ... made... a video on this before (and the original "water pie" which was dish developed in desperate times when baking materials were rationed or too expensive). It can work, though it's a little fiddly depending on sugar content of the soda, flour brand, etc.
As a British person, I can confirm we usually refer to them as sprinkles, and "Cheese Strings" is a brand of cheese that usually children eat which they can pull into "strings" 😂
Hey, Sorted! Just so you know, in the U.S., our string cheese (like your cheese strings) typically are a low-moisture mozzarella, but you can also get them in cheddar, pepper jack, and other options. Since the person who made the video is from Virginia, their mozzarella was most likely our string cheese!
That cake/bread looks like the Swedish "Sockerkaka" translating to roughly "sugar cake", it is almost like a loaf of bread that is sugary and sweet! Would recommend 100%!
I was SO OPTIMISTIC about the Sprite pie! I know in the Great Depression they had a water pie that followed a similar principle. I hope the second attempt works better!
Ebbers' one reminds me of when I made two minute noodle rolls by boiling the noodles with the flavour sachet and using the stock from that to make rolls.
Ah the pie is depression pie, it's usually made with just water instead of soda, as it's also called water pie. It's a custard made without eggs, or butter, simply water, flour and sugar. Making something like a custard but for very cheap. The crusts were usually made with cheap fat. It came about during the 1930s as a way to have a bit of a treat during Christmas or Thanksgiving. The soda version came along later, as soft drinks became common household items. But it's the same sort of concept.
