How to Turn Any Ingredients Into Strata | Off-Script With Sohla

  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 11 ก.ค. 2024
  • Sohla El-Waylly explores strata, the love child of frittata and bread pudding. Picture: a tender, fluffy egg custard soaking into toasty bread and wrapping around the mix-ins of your choice. All you need to make strata is bread of any kind, from stale brioche to yesterday’s biscuits, milk, eggs, and mix-ins. It’s the ideal brunch dish to assemble the night before. But don’t let the eggy custard limit this dish to breakfast; prep your strata in the morning with any leftovers for the fastest weeknight dinner. This recipe can be easily scaled down to use up a little bit of this or that, or doubled to feed a large family. READ MORE ABOUT STRATA ►► f52.co/3oyW3SO

      @@AndreaIris86 English was my first language, but not the language I ended up speaking for the bulk of my childhood, and I have no particular aversion to the word. I believe it has to do with people associating the word with bodily fluids, and with things like musty and moldy basements. For me, as far as the human body goes, I associate the word moist with moisturizers and lotions, and thus, healthy skin that is not dry or flaky. I also associate it with Moist cakes, because who likes to eat a dry cake? Lastly, and speaking of eating, this brings us to a certain body part which should be moist, in order to avoid excessive and uncomfortable friction.

      @Andrea Regina Native english speaker here! I think it’s more about the sound or ‘feel’ of the word than the meaning? When you say moist, it involves a lot of mouth and lip movement for American English speakers. I don’t have any problem with it but I guess some people do. Hope that helps!

      My only worry might be the oven's effect on salmon. When she talked about splitting the batch into two, that might work for a double decker riff as well. Leave the cream cheese and salmon out of the egg/bread mix, and once the two halves are done, spread the cheese and salmon over the top of one, then place the other on top. Finish with fresh dill and chives for that aromatic effect, and voila. I'm definitely trying this.

    I'm a big fan of stratas... For Christmas Day Brunch last year, I did an "eggs benedict" strata with ham, cheddar cheese, and English muffins (topped with hollandaise sauce and chives). I've also done sun dried tomato, basil, and feta, and a breakfast sausage, bell pepper, pepper jack cheese one, and kale, gruyere, and sauteed onion. They're perfect for potlucks. I love the concept, and this video has SO MANY NEW IDEAS.

    Sohla, this is straight-up my favorite new cooking series. My only request: WHERE DO I SEND PHOTOS OF THE BEAUTIFUL FOOD I MADE INSPIRED BY IT!? I made the paprika chicken, and it was one of the most gorgeous and tasty things I’ve ever done. I want to cheer you by showing you what a good teacher you are!
    Seriously, you are so approachable and so comforting and so encouraging of personal creativity. I love your “all five senses” style of cooking too. You’re the culinary inspiration I didn’t know I needed this year. ❤️

    I used to have a job where we had TONNES of leftover sandwiches - roast beef, ham salad, salmon, egg, you name it. I would take them home and make strata with them, and it worked out AMAZING. The sandwich fillings just transformed into something new and exciting with oven magic. Sohla is taking it to the next level!

    Made the pizza strata for dinner tonight. It’s a hit. Been making our Christmas breakfast casserole for decades and never knew it had a name. It was just a generational family tradition. Now that we know that other variants are yummy too, we are brainstorming other “off-script” possibilities, like a pastrami or corned beef sandwich with caramelized onions and Swiss cheese. I hope you decide to do another series of Off-Script, Sohla! You and Ham, and the Babish Man 😁 are our favorite chefs to watch!
