As a person from central Europe, I can tell you that sweet-filled dumplings are a pretty normal lunch here :) We usually fill them with jam, cream cheese, nuts, various fresh fruits, sometimes even nutella. But I have to admit, it made me smile seeing you this excited over sweet dumplings. For me personally, it's usually "I'm giving up" lunch when we go to a typical local restaurant, because being a vegetarian who cannot eat fried foods, sweet dumplings are usually the only thing on the menu I can actually order :D

@dawnmagee3354 Год назад

My Grandparents came here from Poland. We always have fruit pierogi on holidays. Usually blueberry. We also had cheese and potato, minced meat, and sauerkraut. Pierogi are a lot of work but that machine looks helpful.

@zdenkakarlikova2631 Год назад

Here in Czechia, we're more into the sweet ones, although smoked meat is a pretty common filling too, with a side of either sauerkraut or puréed spinach. Concerning fruits, it's mainly about what season it is at the moment. Lots of strawberries in the garden? Strawberry dumplings! Same goes for apricots, cherries, blueberries and plums :)

@dawnmagee3354 Год назад

When Christopher gets excited, you know it’s going to be good!! Guess who is a new owner of a dumpling maker??? This gal 🎉

@silverpalm Год назад

The little squeegee measuring cup is amazing for solid oil measurement like crisco or coconut oil. It's also really good for pumpkin when making pumpkin pie or whatever! Just sticky viscous things that are a pain to measure! I used to have one, but it was like 20 years old so the silicon seal hardened and cracked haha.

@oohsquirrel6633 Год назад

Exactly what I was going to say. I love mine when I'm making my orange- chocolate chippers or peanut butter cookies. Crisco, butter, peanut butter. All work perfect for that measurer. Never thought of pumpkin though. Thank you for that.

@hollygibson628 Год назад

Honey, sour cream, butters.

@TheKris47 Год назад

That Bartician thing is even worse than being useless, they aren’t sanitary either since remnants of the various spirits get stuck in the machine. Greg at How to Drink did a big rant about that thing

@theindigollama Год назад

I remember that rant! You also can't choose the strength. This is why I dislike the Keurig and this thing is like a Keurig for alcohol.

@imjuliewaters Год назад

@@theindigollama When they made the first drink, it asked how strong they wanted it.

@@imjuliewaters True, but that is dependant on the machine. Different people have different tastes. Like they mentioned with the margarita, Rachel likes hers heavy on the lime.

@jaciw Год назад

@@theindigollama you’re supposed to clean/descale your keurig periodically so if it’s absolutely disgusting, that’s user error

@MEG4nerd Год назад

That measuring cup is a dupe of the pampered chef one that has existed for years except that one is double sided for liquids and solids and the liquid one has a spout. It is 100% fantastic for nut butters because you push and then scrape it off.

@Sincyn241 Год назад

And mayo, sour cream, yogurt, pasta sauce, coconut oil, and vegetable shortening. It’s a go-to for holiday baking and summer pasta salads.

@thigirlhockeygoalie Год назад

My husband and I bought the bartesian for our wedding and rehearsal dinner. The bartender loved it and it was way cheaper then having the bartender have all the ingredients to make the variety of drinks we wanted. It was a true blessing at the rehearsal dinner as well. As someone said below you have to clean it frequently if you are going to stop using it for any period of time. It’s not something that an average person is going to need.

@paigeblueox9809 Год назад

Mini calzones with the dumpling maker.. so many possibilities 🤣

@1977felisha Год назад

My mother in law uses a press like the dumpling press you have for apricot filled cookies using a butter cookie for the outer part, adding apricot preserves inside, baking, then dusting w/ powdered sugar. Its my husband's favorite cookie recipe. He gets a batch every Christmas & devours them quickly.

@jessicas253 Год назад

Those fries could be done more easily if you get a mandolin with the same waved blade (a lot of sets already have one included). That way you'll always have the same thickness and you just need to rotate the potato. Using just that blade seemed way too complicated to me.

@sarahkwast1250 Год назад

I came to the comments just to see if anyone else mentioned that. I knew it was WAY easier than hand slicing every fry!

@Sincyn241 Год назад

And I could have sworn that there was an option on the salad shooter/vegetable shredder!

Rachel's excitement for creating a massive dumpling was only slightly overshadowed by that fact that she was sleighed by that moving Santa sleigh.

@sarahkwast1250 Год назад

That measuring cup might be good for things similar to a nut butter consistency like Mayo (for egg salad) or pumpkin pie mix. Anything that needs an extra spoon to help get it out of the cup.

I have that plunger measuring cup. It’s AMAZING for sticky substances like honey, nut butters, syrups, molasses, etc. It’s not really intended for liquids or dry ingredients but designed and REVOLUTIONARY for thick or sticky ingredients. Totally worth having for those kinds of things even though I don’t use it tons for all measuring. I had a polish friend who introduced me to desert pirogies. So delicious! That drink machine just makes you not have to measure. That’s it. It’s for people with too much money on their hands.

My most of the way blind aunt has two barticians, one for the house and one for the trailer 😂 they are great for her to be able to make her own drink and also good when we have large family get togethers so that one person doesn’t end up stuck making drinks for everyone. They get cleaned frequently and my aunt gave them each a name.

The desert dumpling is basically just a sweet empanada. Which happens to be my favorite dessert

@melvasaiel Год назад

I have one of those adjustable measuring things that's at least 30 years old. I mainly use it to measure squishy things like peanut butter and shortening because you can see if you've got air bubbles. Then you just push it out instead of trying to scoop it back out of a measuring cup. It's also fun to make really precise cookies; push it down to the 2 tablespoon mark, fill with cookie dough and scrape across the top to make it smooth, then push up the bottom and use a butter knife to slice off a perfect disk of a cookie onto your baking sheeting.

@clairer342 11 месяцев назад

I would recommend a food scale to nearly anyone who is measuring food often. I can make an entire recipe without dirtying any measuring cups. I also LOVE it when I’m making things with peanut butter because I just plop it in and only get the stirring knife dirty, rather than needing a measuring cup and a scraper. I splurged for scale that has decimal places even when measuring grams, but you can get one in nearly every price range. Check the reviews to see if it has the features you want. (For example: continuous glass surface for easy clean up, digital display for visual accessibility, or a place to read the measurement that isn’t covered by large bowls if you bake a lot.) Thank you for this video, I love kitchen gadgets! 💖

That measure would work for shortening or brown sugar too. For dessert dumplings, try some cherry pie filling with a chocolate chip, or a couple mini chocolate chips! Also, it might be interesting to try a dessert filling in the actual dumpling dough and cook it the same way you would a dumpling.

Hey rach and Chris, that measuring cup is supposed to be able to help you measure and cleanly dispense very viscous or thick semi-liquid semi-solid stuff like honey and mayonnaise and when you push it down the gasket make sure it scrapes the sides so that you get it all out and the properly measured amount
