Baklava | Basics with Babish 

just so happens to be my bad ear too

I think I am the first comment so... FiRsT!!🤣😅

I checked my right ear bud several times before i saw this comment

I thought my headphones were acting up

Yea

Definitely some dodecahedrons

W͞h͞a͞l͞e͞

Some socratic solids too.

I indeed do suck at cooking thanks

tfw you skipped geometry in high school

I'm deaf in the left ear 😭

yep, didn't even know anything was wrong when this came out

LITTERALLY i had no idea i went to the comments after to find out, oh lol this has weird audio and i just had no idea

@@wibbels4626 Pro tip if you've got a Mac: there's a setting in the Accessibility preferences panel to mix both channels together. The name seems to change from version to version; on Big Sur it's called "Play stereo audio as mono". Problem solved.

@@liejuray6470 sammeee ;-;

Wow same, and I was wondering why tf am I not hearing him, did he decide to do a silent episode 😂

you can fix that by figuring out how to switch your sound to mono and not stereo

Lo-fi chill af

I WAS LISTENING WITH MY LEFT ONE ONLY AND ONLY FOUND OUT IT HAS AUDIO BY CHECKING THE COMMENTS FML

Holy s*** I just watched the whole thing wondering why there is no narration

Nobody: Babish: _into a medium saucepn..._

If your listening on a phone, realize that if you turn your phone sideways he only speaks through the top of your phone and plays music through the bottom... beautiful

@@ScreebonSpeed if your phone has speaker on both sides

Nice memory, I remembered the exact same scene but I'm Turkish lol

@@hexadcml Philo means leaf in Greek so just so you know it's a Greek food

@@georgg1996 Really dude! Really? Didn’t we live on the same lands not a 100 years ago? Well, lebanese people have a baklava too, is it lebanese? Also, very sweet desserts within the Ottoman Empire usually originate from the arabian peninsula. Is it Arabic? Persian?

@@hexadcml chill, I said Philo, the Dough. Not baclava.

@@georgg1996 Obviously it's not called philo in turkey and it spread to europe or america from greece. So yogurt must be turkish then it doesn't matter if you put greek in front of it?

Yes! I didn't notice the first time i watched this a few months ago. Glad someone else noticed that too!

beatboxing with babish

Cpt. Price be like "Check your corners"

This is the greatest joke I have ever seen

Babish and Jess' new cat is called Bucky (Buckwheat)! Coincidence? I think Not!!

i HATE hearing him only from my left speaker i thought my speakers broke still hate it not being correct stereo

I watched the entire thing without him talking. The left side of my headset doesn't work and I just assumed it was a silent video with music. Felt stupid when I came to the comment section and realized I should have watched without headset

Aye mama sita. Also, what's with the music 😂

We don't drink coffee while eating baklava

@@redhood9962 we kinda do actually

Or ayran

Greek coffee.

i was checking my freaking speakers wtf was wrong with them well i guess that solves it

Same lol

Deadass didn’t have my left earphone in so all I heard was music! I thought, “okay so he’s switching it up and getting rid of the VO!” 😂

HAHA

Yeah. Wholly uncomfortable. Luckily I had the sense to check the audio with another video before I messed with my headphone wire.

Babish wishpers you to finish the Baklava, whilst holding a gun to your temple

feminists: sexual harassment, i'm gonna sue babish

@@teslah6794 hah funny 😐

yeah, I started messing around with my balance settings as well

I think the noodles broke him

What about second lunch?

@@ThePartisan13 second lunch? I thought it was second breakfast?

@@RedRoseSeptember22 Oh there is, but I'm sure there's a second lunch in there somewhere too

That's seriously bugging me rn

I thought this was an error

whoaaaa this is wierd

I was watching this and thinking I was gonna get kinda mad if he changed to one of those cooking channels where they just make a recipe and never talk. Then I realized my left speaker isn't working.

It hurts

Same

Very weird Ik

Same

help please i'm scared

May I ask where your family is from?

That's really cool Jul, I like the variations people bring on these comment threads :) I had baklava at a Lebanese restaurant and there was definitely some honey in the syrupy pastry, but weirdly a pinch of cinnamon came through aswell. I love cinnamon and honey combined so I had no complaints! :)

Oh that is a different recipe from the baklava I know and love. But I will try yours too, it sounds delicious! 😋 The recipe I grew up with is the syrup we use water, honey, sugar, orange or lemon zest (I much prefer orange), cinnamon stick and some cloves. Very rarely do we ever add this one ingredient of star Anise, only around the holidays we do that because it really dose bring some cheer into the syrup and make it taste more intensely like cinnamon and our family personally loves it.. Otherwise we do not use it because not everyone likes that. The result of this syrup is a thick, caramel honey taste that has a tangy taste of the orange to add to the sweetness or the tangy citrus of lemon to cut through the sweetness just right. It balances out better with the lemon but my family is a bunch of sweet tooths. Ahah 😆 My hometown is Pylos, everyone there makes the syrup like this. I feel you might be from the more North area of the Mediterranean, the dishes there are so similar but slightly different in a tasty way unknown to us. Hopefully I can recreate your recipe well and I'll get back to you when I have! 😊 😋 ❤

Never heard of butter in the syrup.

@Jace Smith I am Greek and i can safely say that baklavas does not originate from Greece its' origins come from ottoman empire and it then became well known in the cousins of middle east, central Asia, Balkans (Greece is part of the Balkans) and some other parts let me know if I am wrong though Edit: though might I add that each place prepares baklava differently so you can say that each place has its' own baklava I guess.

@Jace Smith how am I treacherous over sweet things XD? and I never said it's Turkish I said it originates from ottoman empire(or at least that's what I heard and read) not Greece whether or not it's Greek or Turkish doesn't rly matter since the baklava from Greece and Turkey are different

@Jace Smith hahahahahahhahahahaha I mean baklava Is suuuuuuper tasty so I get it. Damn this makes me want to eat some right now

@Jace Smith yup baklava is greek, just like everything else that was ever made in the history of mankind. clown

I can see the war has transferred to the RU-vid comments

One does not simply eat this Mediterranean treat without singing: 🎶“A little more baklavaaaaa-“🎶

Wow man that was dry as hell

It’s also mentioned in the movie Running Scared with the late Paul Walker.

And also if u have a app called webtoon then in love Olympus

I'm glad I'm not the only one

This comment just made me notice the voice is only coming from one side of the car

I just had my right earbud in and only heard music. I was skipping around thinking the commentary has to start soon right?

Yes, me too^^

You've got him there :D

Yep he does lol.

Wait he dose? I completely missed that! It makes sense too because, and fun fact incoming, allot of Byzantium Empire food comes from the Arabic Empire. I'm not sure how but the influence can be seen if you look closely at the two cultures. Also, I feel Arab is the origin of all the foods that both Turkey and Greece share. But ever since Arab culture has died down, the food that got carried to other cultures are being split in credit and in names. Its confusing to keep track lol each culture calls the same food a different name now. 😆

@@angeliki5135 He does indeed.

BOOOO! GET OFF THE STAGE!

Those jokes crack me up

It's still bad. Simply because it's not earbuds doesn't mean it's not stereo.

I was thinking Courage the Cowardly Dog, myself, in the episode "Perfect"

@@alberian8934 The story of aladdin is chinese

@@alberian8934 the joke is that the Genie makes a shitton of baklava during the Friend Like Me song.

Thought my earphones were broken for a second 😅

babby is in my room

left ear for me.

I thought my headphones gave up the ghost and my dad was gonna kill me

@@azzzanadra If you can't hear it out of your left ear, your headphones are on backwards. The right side audio is not working for this video.

It's really hard to make it. I've only seen professional Turkish and Greek pastry chefs making it.

It's a MASSIVE pain in the ass, and unlike with puff pastry, there's zero benefit to not use the frozen stuff.

@@theodoreportlain ITS NOT GREEK PASTRY

@@erwkaq6091 read that again, he didnt say its greek

Honestly, my only difficulty in fillo is the fact that you need to roll it until it is very thin. But even then, I think I did a pretty good job when I first made tyropita and spanakopita. Now for sweeter delicacies that's a different issue😅.

It's not local, Baklava is Greek

@@per4n It's Turkish. Greeks saying "Ours" to everything :D

I hope you called your grandmother.

Don’t listen to the dummys saying baklava is Greek. Baklava was created by the Ottomans, who happen to be….Greek, Turkish, Syrian, Lebanese and many more! The idea that one country owns a dish that was created under an empire is a load of bs

It's battle of the RU-vid cooks!! LOL XD

😳

I can only imagine what he is thinking when he reads this

Hahahahahahahahahaha best comment

@@Alexmarill Who wouldn't want a culinary daddy to tickle the back of their neck with his luscious beard?

In my left ear only... probably some edit error.

I went to a gyro place in my town and got baklava for the first time. Its unlike anything else I've ever tasted. I could eat it for weeks

Who doesn't like baklava? Also künefe is might fine too

The reason to stop eating baklava is not getting bored with it. It is getting diabetes from it.

I am from Pakistan and love Baklava.

@@evrimfeyyaz he said its a different kind of baklava anyways

I was waiting for that too hahahah but very smart to skip that entirely. He is all about food and enjoying regardless of its background

@@orhunbekir06 you sir have the most turkish name i have ever read, cool!

WHAT'S GOOD CHEFPK 🤗🤗

Yess you should have been there with coffee with chef

Yeah I also eat quite a lot of baklava since I'm from Greece.. we mostly use walnuts and kinda the same syrup

@@xggx343 you ever tried it? It’s not overwhelming at all, if you knew how saffron tasted it’s an underlying note of flavor. Saffron and rose water is used in Persian baklava, I mean idk why you’d think it’d be disgusting

It literally took me 5 minutes to realise it wasnt the video and then i did the dumb thing of putting my right ear bud into my left ear to see if it would work, before i finally realised what happened.

I thought it was just an intro till it went over 2 min lol

I really don't understand. How do I fix this?

Make Babish make filo dough! Y! E! S!

I loved that movie.

@@MorriganReads me too

And Aladdin

@@BleachAnddy I think it was just mentioned though,the one in the old guard actually lists specific ingredients in it

Also in the Old Guard Andy eats baklava and analyzes its contents so.... I'm expecting accurately sourced ingredients

@@lrthesier208 I was coming here to say the same thing.

There is that Perfect episode of Courage the Cowardly Dog where Muriel (and Courage) try to make baklava, only the dough is lighter than air (before vanishing into), and the syrup is blowable like bubble gum.

Ah yes mono the saliva transferred virus called kissing flu.

I constantly have my right ear resting behind my ear so I can hear better. I didn't even realise anything was wrong...

thank you for the idea

My phone had a mono speaker, so its fine while im eating my food.

Yeah same, Im just a mono speaker person. Dunno about this fuss with left ear syndrome. I guess eveeyone is just richer than I am lol.

My roommates moved in about three years ago and they still have boxes they haven't unpacked yet. I think it's more of a thing where you don't really use the stuff in the boxes much so you don't think about it.

I've been living in my place for 3 years and I swear to God I'm still not fully unpacked

Same, we've been living here 3 years, unpacked quite a bit, had to repack for renovation and now there's less unpacked then there was before. I do miss quite some stuff sometimes, but i'll deal with it somehow

Me, who moved almost a year ago and still has lots of stuff in boxes: _shrugs_ where’s the lie

We moved to the US 4 years ago and have still barely unpacked

@Burak Göze greek for grandmother

@Burak Göze Just wait until you hear about this new website called google.

How do you make fylo (filo?) from scratch? I was under the impression it’s like making croissant dough, but even harder and more time consuming XDD

ginko baloba You’ve just ignited a Greco-Turkish hate war 😬

@@GiraffeFeatures Yeah, now the first guy that asked what giagia means is going to say that baklavas is originated from turkey after that another greek will come by and say that it came from greece.

but then it would be "binging" and not "basics" with babish and he would have to make the pastry himself

you let your kid watch videos while eating? 🤨

@@ed8212 While watching videos while eating may not be the best for many kids, it could be the best for some, including riviell's! Different kids need different things, and if this is the way riviell has decided to have meal times, it might be the best for them and their child. :D

@@soominahn5927 Plus, it may inspire Riviell's child to, one day, take to the kitchen to make something amazing. :)

I thought it was only me xD

I thought it was just me lol

It really is annoying 😂 try using Mono audio in your settings, it makes it much better.

Oh wow now I can't un-hear it

my balkan self is visibly confused too

Omg, my aunt makes the most delicious baklava with cocoa. It's even better than the traditional one in my opinion. My Balkan grandma was also very against the idea until she had a taste 😂😂

I am turkish I AM CONFUSED

@@OutBoy12123 just babish, trying to make food from another country to look appealing for Americans, which is great, but kinda removes all of the traditions, around this food

@UCr9lSD0pDSpvzSX0wTsqXRw If it ain't broke, don't fix it 🤷🏼‍♀️ lol no one's saying it's a bad thing, however since he's not from the Balkans and just goes about butchering a traditional recipe that's been passed down for generations and is a trademark for a lot of us, sort of doesn't sit well with some of us, especially with the elderly folks. To each their own, but what's so wrong with traditions anyway?

Mhm.. Exactly what I though :')

The panning on this video is ass

I'm pretty much deaf on my left ear for now, so I honestly thought this was a no commentary video

Yeah I couldn’t put it on full screen on my phone because my top speaker sounds absolutely terrible lol usually it’s not a problem but i could barely hear him

Alternative solution, make more baklava, the syrup is wise we should listen to its advice and just keep making baklava

Yeah in most cases you end up using all of it

Why is it only right for me

@@Kailer504 you probably have your headphones on backwards

I had only my right headphone on and assumed he was doing a new no talking thing

I was so confused until I read this comment. I watch at work and only have one earbud in so all I could hear was music. I though he may have had a sore throat or something. 😂

Figure it out yourself with Babish

Be me: *a Greek who cannot eat anything with gluten and trying to not think of Baklava* Babish: *makes Baklava* Me: *dies alongside my Turkish friend* We both love Baklava 💘 ❤

Heh, Aladdin reference.

THANK YOU, FINALLY SOMEONE BRINGS IT UP!
