Heyyyyy Everyone! Thanks for watching! Who keeps some powdered acids in their pantry? Who is going to go pick some up now? Love to see the interest in vinegar and lactic acid fermentation in the comments. If there are other topics you'd like to me cover, let me know!

As you said, vinegars would be an excellent topic. Acetic acid is such a unique flavor. Store bought vinegar isn't very strong, but I'm curious if you can think of any home kitchen applications for an industrial strength vinegar (30% acetic acid). This would be complementary to pretzel making, which uses a strong basic solution.

You guys should check out Glen and Friends Cooking. He doesn't have the portfolio Adam ragusea does but he's very easy to understand and follow along with since he's not a professional but you so informative and clearly explains exactly what's happening so you know what to expect in videos that aren't exorbitantly long. I don't think he has any videos over 25 minutes and the majority of them are half that long and your left completely understanding the concept and the recipe. Just from the way he explains things while he's showing you how to brown butter or do a dry caramel as a base for some fancy hot chocolate, I now have a much larger base knowledge and skill set to be able to apply to other recipes. The way he calmly says things like "sure, it looks a mess now but it's totally going to fix itself so don't freak out and just keep stirring" is so reassuring to a novice. He tries to stay away from any needlessly complicated processes and skills while explaining his reasoning we're not perfect in those skills and still ending up with a similar if not identical product in the end which I really really really appreciate. Also, Adam Ragusea has called him out in videos! He's legit 👌

I've read that sour taste is the oldest taste we've identified in the genomic record, going back millions of years and developing before any other taste. The theory I read was that it allowed ancient organisms to identify when they swam into low oxygen/high CO2 water, which would be more sour due to the carbonic acid formed.

This is everything about why I love to hang out at America’s Test Kitchen! I’ve always disliked the format of recipes: a formula that someone created that might or might not produce a delicious result in my kitchen. My kitchen is my laboratory: a place of experimentation and discovery. I delight in learning new techniques and processes. ATK not only shows me what works, but explains why. It seems I’m always trying to balance acid, salt, and sweet. Dan’s episode today - backed by the amazing ATK team - has added substantially to my repertoire of understanding and techniques. Oh yes, I'll soon have those powdered acids. Thanks.

In this “Acid” episode (“throwback” to the 1960-70), you put out a call for a vinegar episode. I am huge fan preferring a higher ratio of acid to oil. Faves include thick, natural fruity balsamic vinegars I buy locally in St. Louis, including Bordeaux Cherry and a Lemon balsamic for any greens (Lemon also excellent in green tea), Bourbon Cherry for grilling, and a Jalapeño balsamic for adventure. So, definitely yes to a vinegar segment, Dan! Grateful for your time, expertise, and wit.

Posset is super old school. In Latin cultures, we use the mix of dairy and citrus in desserts like Lime Carlota and similar things. I blend heavy cream with sweetened condensed milk and lemon or lime juice, and later the mix with Maria biscuits (I know US peeps who use something called graham crackers?) and leave in the fridge overnight. The top can be decorated with lime zest or powdered biscuits/crackers.

I started keeping pure citric acid in my pantry years ago. I used to buy powdered lemon and lime, but the problem with them is that they are usually mixed with maltodextrin, and they tend to cake up and become difficult to use. I ended up developing a small spice kit for backpacking/camping/travelling, and it includes small vials of: onion powder, garlic powder, citric acid, msg, cayenne pepper, ground ginger, ground cinnamon, and ground cardamom, plus larger vials of salt and sugar. I'm a big fan of sour flavors, and I often find that pre-packaged foods aren't as sour as I would prefer them to be, so having pure citric acid on hand is an easy way to remedy that.

A cool thing you can do with citric and malic acid is to make so-called "super juice" - you take the zest of either lime or lemon and macerate it with the powdered acids (just google it to get the proportions). You then add water, blend it, strain it and mix in the actual juice and end up with 8 times as much juice. This is aimed mainly at bartenders, but you could certainly do it at home
