I really like that the babish team keeps mistakes in the video, like the egg whites that didn't fluff up, and that they made extra desserts with the leftover eggs!!

YES! its so refreshing to see that even the professionals make mistakes, and that those mistakes can be salvaged into something and dont have to be trash!

@0-Kirby-0 2 месяца назад

It does feel a little silly they didn't point out how risky it is to separate all eggs from one big bowl. Even a small amount of egg yolk can keep egg white from fluffing, that's why people do them one-at-a-time.

@@XavierTheNeonTiger yeah Alton Brown used a little 'quarantine bowl' to catch each white before moving it to the big bowl. though he loves using extra bowls. Basically the lesson here is, if you don't want to ruin _grosses_ of eggs, study, pay attention, and look up "things that can go wrong while baking X" beforehand.

About the origin of this kind of cakes... It seems that they were created in old monasteries in Portugal. Later the recipe was brought to Japan in the XVI century during the discovery age. We call it "pão de ló".

@BewareTheLilyOfTheValley 2 месяца назад

Nah, I would say Babish's video for Red Dead Redemption II would probably be more expensive since he made a stew using multiple meats, including bear meat, which isn't common and probably is expensive. Sadly, the gaminess of the bear ruined the whole dish because it overwhelmed everything else 😅. But Babish got fully into character and actually went out into the woods, even putting on a western accent, lol. Really fun episode (please don't ask me to find it, it was years ago).

FYI. Castella's original recipe come from the Portuguese traders when they first visited Japan in the 16th century. In Portugal, the cake is called "Pão de Ló". Its a very common cake here. Can be made in a few different ways, but by and large its a rather simple and unimpressive sponge cake. Its also, as far as i can tell, not originally from Portugal, as the same base recipe or some slight variations could be found throughout Europe.
