Croquembouche, but Extremely Lazy

This is really a video all about the lines we draw around what's too much and what's not enough. I would happily buy store-bought profiteroles and still make my own caramel (in fact, the croquembouche will look far more impressive that way), but using pre-made candies can make some beginners feel comfortable making something they'd never expect to accomplish. Here's what you need to make a small Croquembouche*:
30 Pre-made Mini Cream Puffs - go.magik.ly/ml...
5.5oz Bag Werther's Originals - go.magik.ly/ml...
1 Tbsp Butter - go.magik.ly/ml...
1Tbsp Cream (Bump this up to 2Tbsp if you want a runnier caramel that's easier to work with, but looks less wispy) - go.magik.ly/ml...
Sprinkles (Optional) - go.magik.ly/ml...
Melt candy, butter, and cream over low heat and use it to adhere cream puffs together.
*To make a large croquembouche, buy 80 cream puffs and double the amount of caramel. Decorate the perimeter with sprigs of rosemary and pomegranate arils.

I’m a huge Adam Ragusea fan, but I do think a lot of internet people have a bad habit of turning “you don’t have to make it difficult” to “you should never make it difficult.” If you want to spend the effort, go for it. If not, don’t sweat it.

maybe this really isn't the space for this, but I'm so happy you put that bit in the video about your channel NOT being for people that value practical food above all. I loved watching "realistic food" channels, especially adam ragusea's (who i believe is the biggest youtube cook with this approach right kow), but the unfortunate side effect of these viewpoints is that they have spawned a wave of people who believe that food should be as efficient as possible or it's not worth making, and that presentation of a dish is an afterthought. adam ragusea's cooking style makes sense for him, as a busy father and former laborer, but people who take his ideas and make them their entire philosophy irritate the hell out of me. i personally really enjoy this channel because it strikes a perfect balance between practicality and presentation. i also like that you're honest about why and how you cook or do certain things, and don't expect others to adopt them by default.

@onrev Год назад

As an Adam fan myself I want to point out he even points this out in the video being referenced here. If the pursuit of artistic food is your goal he doesn't shame people who would pursue that, only that, if you want some macarons and the perfect appearance is giving you grief, you don't HAVE to subject yourself to that pursuit. I am also not ignorant to the fact that many of his fans have missed this message and have become insufferable when abstracting that message to "you must view good as fuel for our human machine body and to view it as artistic fuel for our souls is folly" attitude is sadly alive and present. Just wanted to say from a pretty steadfast fan of Adam's videos and style of cooking, I awkowlage and even praise the work of people who choose to take food as artistic endeavors to please others.

Even Adam Ragusea does not restrict himself to that ideology. The meat roulades? The candy? The upcoming beef wellington? Nobody needs those and he admits it. The point in them lies in their ability to impress/have fun making. His argument about the macarons was that they are delicious, but are strictly viewed as tedious and painstakingly curated, which need not be your approach if you just want some good almond meringues and do not care about cute cookies (though it is perfectly fine to do so).

I think blaming the trend towards artlessness on Adam (or even on viewers misunderstanding his ideas) isn't quite right. There is a larger cultural trend towards disengagement and atomization these days. When you ask most people what they do with their time, they mostly say "scroll twitter" or "watch the Netflix show du jour." Some people seem to have stopped exploring and engaging in favor of passively consuming bland, algorithmic products. This video, and Adam's videos, are a call to engage with the world. Try something new! Make something! It doesn't have to be anything complicated (IMO, anything worth doing is worth doing badly). Whatever the outcome, you're engaging more directly with the world around you.

For a less soggy, less massive, yet still impressively tall croquembouche, you can use an exponentially regressing formula for the stacking instead of a linear one. I personally think the ‘Eiffel tower’ look is a lot cooler than a regular cone shape.

Great video. While I agree that food is not just for subsistence, I feel that you might be getting the wrong (ar at least an incomplete) impression of a certain RU-vidr, based on comments from random dumbasses who've stripped all context of his (IMO) far more nuanced opinion, like a game of internet Telephone. While food can be made to be beautiful, extravagent, and all sorts of other positive adjectives, what I gleaned from the RU-vidr who shall not be named is that if you're making yourself miserable trying to create "the perfect X" then maybe reconsider if it's really worth it. This is why I love your "Easier, Tastier, Prettier" series, because it allows people to decide how much effort they want to put in for their desired result. Happy Holidays!

@droctogonapus1223 Год назад

I used to watch RU-vid videos by professional chefs who always cooked in the way a professional chef would. While it was impressive, it made cooking seem really inaccessible. I like your videos, as well as videos by a certain other cooking video creator, because you both emphasize what's important for average people to cook great food. I think that being able to get really into the technique and aesthetics can be really fun and rewarding, but for people who are hesitant to try because they are worried about screwing up, being reminded that it's not necessary is freeing.

@filiformis Год назад

While I agree that the time spent making food beautiful is worthwhile, I think I can understand why someone may say that making a smoothie beautiful is a waste of time. They have a certain expectation for an everyday smoothie. It's something quick and nutritious (or quick and sweet). It's not something you spend a lot of time on. When they see someone whose very assumptions about food break from that idea, it looks ridiculous. It's like a car guy explaining why a classic car is so great for all of these aesthetic reasons, when the non-car guy just sees poor mpg and how much work goes into maintaining it. Once again, I'm not agreeing with them, just trying to provide a more charitable explanation that doesn't require a leap of logic like "These people adhere to the idea of an artless utopia, that's why they're commenting this on my RU-vid video".

@carolinepeterson7995 Год назад

The implied dig at Adam Ragusea (re: macarons) strikes me as a weird choice for making a point about an anti-aesthetic approach to food. Adam has his whole thing about loving purple food and often justifies choices in his recipes as being "for pretty." It can also be true at the same time that *every* food you make at home need not be elaborately beautiful, and that if the extra steps required to make perfectly smooth macarons are preventing you from enjoying macarons, it is also ok to make ugly/lazy macarons.

@TheGreektrojan Год назад

I didn't take it that way. I took it as a dig to the people on the internet who lack nuance and context and took videos like the one referenced and turned it into a cult of "food aesthetics are irrelevant and you are bad for considering them." This happens in all hobbies and contexts where people take new ideas and create strict black and white rules around them.

@ItsMrBozToYou Год назад

Stylized design usually leads to more surface area as well as nooks and crannies, both of which usually improve foods. An example: Nooks and crannies = better sauce adhesion. Surface area = better crispness/texture. Dino nuggets = more nooks and crannies as well as surface area. Dino nuggets, therefore, are the superior form of chicken nugget.

Interestingly, humans are greatly influenced by food appearance. There have been studies where a taste tester is given a colored and uncolored drink. Both drinks have the same flavoring (so should taste the same) but the colored drink was preceved to have a stronger flavor. This is why soft drinks are colored, not clear. And why popcorn butter in a movie theater is colored to be more golden buttery looking. The way the food looks influences what we *expect* to taste. It's obviously not everything but appearances do matter.

The average viewer has the capacity to contextualize messages within the spirit they were given, its the outliers that are loudest though. It would be the wrong take away from your content to go around commenting on other's cooking content that food must always be artfully plated because remember when your mom cut the sandwich in triangles!!111? Or take your early criticism of food science authors as an excuse to tell Kenji to slob my hog on every video. I think it's almost impossible to disagree with both yours and Adam's views on foods because, generally, both of y'all aren't saying: This is THE way to cook, for EVERYONE, ALL the time!

I think there's a time and place for ugly, good tasting food and for good looking, meh tasting food. It depends on what you're going for. Edit: I'd try this if I'm trying to impress guests. But even if he isn't always right, I like Adam's recipe because I like the taste of almond cookies

@samsr2887 Год назад

Appearance matters. Food that looks good primes you to enjoy it when it hits your nose, and then your mouth. I think taste and texture matter more than appearance, but appearance totally does matter. How many times have you said to yourself, about food, "man that looks so good!"

@jazzpear8877 Год назад

Yeah there's studies that show good-looking food is perceived as tasting better than an equal alternative without the effort into the appearance. It's always worth putting a little effort into appearances, even if it's covering an unappealing looking casserole with panko, cheese, and parsley lol.

I’ve seen people also use a styrofoam or large paper cone as the base of the croquembouche. That’s another cheat if you want a super stable and symmetrical looking tower.

Absolutely agree that presentation matters. Well-presented dinners for one are true self-care, far more than any hyper-consumerist spending binge or 15-minute ab routine (that you'll never stick with anyway; be honest with yourself). I certainly don't do it every time I sit down for a meal, but thoughtfully plating a dish, garnishing, and wiping the edge of a plate feels good. Taking pride in the things I make and eat not only increases my confidence as a cook, but positively affirms my self-esteem. When I put effort into how a dish looks, it tells my brain that I am worth the effort. If food existed only as fuel, I'd eat out of a fucking trough.
