Binging with Babish: Bao from Pixar's Bao
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 18 ก.พ. 2019
- Bao is a beautifully animated, thematically mature, subtle and nuanced portrait of the human condition - in other words, it's a Pixar production. To celebrate the Oscars this coming weekend, let's dive into the director's mom's own recipe, as we attempt to recreate a food so delicious, you'll want to raise it as your own until it tries to leave you and you eat it.

Which part of eating a magically-sentient food tastes best: its thoughts, feelings, hopes, fears, or ability to love?
Binging with Babish hopes
I find it adds a nice sweet flavor when added lightly
Binging with Babish it’s thoughts, it adds exotic and exciting flavors to the palette.
But don’t add to much or it becomes sour and disappointing.
Binging with Babish its screaming as I rip its succulent flesh off piece by piece
Fear = Flavor.
I've always said that meat is so good because death is the best seasoning, so I guess it's the amalgam of all those things going in your stomach
Instructions unclear. Mine became sentient and lived a worthwhile life
😂
Half my batches became sentient, I’m now a mass murderer.
@@purpleking6678 i was that before they became sentient
id say that that joke described my life but jokes need meaning
@@wyntryx7977 yeah so your life is a joke
Babish on his deathbed: I still regret not making the pork stuffing while the dough rests
this is too underrated
Cianna Renfrow ehhnot really i guess more people would have liked if he said this earlier
@@PearoIGuess nerd
minecraft Playz what why?
@@PearoIGuess wait woops sorru
I wonder if babish ever goes to the movies and sees an incredibly difficult meal on the screen and just goes "fuuuuuuck now I'm gonna have to make this"
"Ratatouille" hehe boi
and we regret it a great portion of the time
pretty sure regular show and adventure time gave him a run for his money
@@mei-senpai742 apparently that rattatouile takes 4 hours to make and is an actual recipe
@@BucketoBirds Ratatouille is a dish, but the one for the movie was made for the movie. They have the same basic ingredients, but they do taste different.
it's weirdly comforting to hear stuff like "I didn't have fresh ginger on hand so I used the dried stuff - it's fine." the grocery store in my small midwest town doesn't even stock whole peppercorns.
Remind me to never move to the midwest.....
@@raydgreenwald7788 It really depends on what part of the Mid West. In my town I have a specialty grocery store where I can buy stuff like specialty cheese, cookies and stuff like that. And I can find whole peppercorns in my non specialty grocery store by the spices.
@@raydgreenwald7788 It's not all bad, but I don't blame you. I can't get wonton wrappers without driving 1/2 an hour, but my town is quiet and I can keep my doors unlocked without worry. It just boils down to preference ig
I had like half of the ingredients for the glaze in the video about Mirage's glaze pork and with some improv it worked out
@@VibesOfVinegar i live in the Midwest as well. you cant not lock your doors. the amount of times I've been stolen from even with a locked door is astounding.
“Don’t eat the pork with a spoon like it’s cereal, you selfish weirdo!”
I hate it when he gets personal.
Why he gotta attack us like that
I derived a single, tiny tear out of that chastisement, mostly because of exactly how badly I want to eat that whole bowl like it's cereal 😩😢
What ? He is right ᕦʕ •ᴥ•ʔᕤ
ŜëŁfÎśĤ ŵÊĩŕðØ
One thing I didn't get about this was that that sauce was the same marinade that the raw pork sat in for 24 hours. He just tossed the pork in with the 'raw' sauce. Isn't that super gross?
LilLilac why would it matter If the sauce was raw? Do you cook your sauces or something
This isn't the only Babish episode with a Steve1989MREInfo reference and I'm okay with it.
Nice.
Nice!
MMkay.
Jon Sudano I thought I was the only one who watched his vids lol
Love his videos
As a true Asian who has eaten and aided in the making of 包子 (baozi) before, I can say that you a pretty good job.
Glad you are a true Asian and not one of those fake ones
@@Greenchrysopsaro You never know until they pull off the flesh mask. Hate it when that happens 😒
Oh a true Asian! How delightful! Not one of those Chinese knock-offs.
@@ERprepper It's wonderful that you think that being a true Asian is delightful. :D

I assume you mean Tiny Whisk, Anakin...
Drew Tube yes
Drew Tube bet ya didn’t expect me to reply so fast
Anakin Skywalker “The force is a gateway to many abilities, some to be considered unnatural”
Yes I did butcher that quote what you gon do about it
It's unfortunate that the genius of the name "Bao" is not often appreciated. Due to the limitations of Chinese-English translations, Bao can mean buns, baby, treasure, or to protect.
Of course, the pun only works when you are using phonetics to express Chinese characters. The actual Chinese characters are different from each other.
The wonders of the Chinese language.
Lil less wholesome is how Si can mean 4 or you know, death.
The problem is the words that don't mean buns sound different (different pronounciation)
@@archevenault Yes, but because of the limitations of the English language in expressing Chinese, it is impossible to differentiate it.
Like Ma, Ma, Ma, Ma. Without the characters, or the ā, à, á, or â, we don't know which is which. Could mean horse, could mean mom, we need those characters or lines pinyin to know what they mean. 吗，妈，码，骂。
Also to hug
"Let's get this onto a trey...nice."
Nice. Very, very nice.
M'kay!
Steve mre
Even though it doesnt involve any cooking, I would love to see Babish do an MRE episode!!
This from that new channel
*_666th like_*
How has nobody mentioned his reference to
Steve1989MREInfo at 5:29 "And how about we get this pork out onto a tray, NICE!"
That was a funny little dig at Steve1989MREInfo.
I can't wait until he takes a dig at You Suck at Cooking and slips in a "Wang-Jangle"
Thank you for being the comment I was looking for
Was just about to comment this!!
ME Neon nice
I feel like we’re a small bunch who got that reference
Andrew: “And I would happily raise one as my child”
People not familiar with Bao short film: ”wOt?”
LMAO THE STEVE MRE “let’s get it out on a tray, nice.” REFERENCE
ikr XD
I was not expecting that but It made my day
😂🤣😂. I caught that too and had to back it up and replay a couple times... he didn’t miss a beat and sounds absolutely identical..
YES
kiwi lemon I JUST DIED ON THIS PART
And remember - if your Bao bun wants to move out and get married to a Canadian, eat him.
Exactly😁
that part had me like omgg lol
@@WrathofFenrir99 It was a metaphor for her realizing that she was hurting her sons chance of a future by trying to keep him to herself
We all gasped and started laughing in the theater 😂
And then he comes back in a human form to talk with you and you two reconcile
real talk though, I'm glad that babish includes his mistakes in these videos.
Yeah, it feels organic. Unlike other cooking channels witch dont iclude messing up.
You walk in frame with the same stilted-ness of the "hi welcome to chili's" guy
I’m like ten months late but did you know that the “hi welcome to chili’s guy” died 😞
"Let's let this cool until it's cooled off"
Ah yes, the floor here is made out of floor.

I feel attacked
If you turley need help learning to cook. Try foodwishes, hes a retired chef who now does TH-cam videos. He is where I am learning to cook.
eating instant ramen is as healthy as licking the back of your AK-47 after it was dipped in Chernobyl, eat something better.
@@azzzanadra Cant. Won't (atm). Also, why tf did you bring up AK's?
@@sincerelysomehumaniguess7610 referencing life of boris
I love your dedication to your craft. We all make small mistakes when trying something new, and that's how we learn the right way to do it. A lot of people would probably cut out their less than perfect first attempts, to try and create the illusion that they knew all the little tips and tricks right from the get-go, but you leave them in. You let us experience those small disappointments with you, and that makes seeing you nailing it in your next attempts so much more satisfying.
As a child i thought dumplings were dough around soup and ive always wanted one. I still want one 🤩
Those do exist (xiao long bao), and they are as delicious as you probably thought they’d be.
Bao is not a dumpling it’s a bun
Look up soup dumplings my friend ;-)
You can oil parchment paper or use a leaf of cabbage, or a leaf of lettuce instead so it won't stick
himynameisfeli use Napa instead of lettuce plz
@@world7452 yes napa is best, iceberg will work in a pinch
The original recipe even specifi d using a cabbage leaf, so I was surprised that he got it wrong.
Corn husks also work!
5:30 Someone has been watching some MRE reviews
Yeah, Steve seems to be everywhere. :D
Nice
Nice hiss!
Everybody gangsta until the dumpling comes to life.
Its not a dumpling
If you want the super fluffy white baozi, use cake flour instead of AP flour for the reduced protein content.
How does reducing the mass of the ingredients make it fluffier? It doesn't make sense to me, it feels like increasing in should make it fluffier instead of taking away ingredients
2:27
First time I've heard him say "salt" without "kosher"
The word kosher has no place in this one 😁
@@cleanwaternasenyiuganda8124 good catch this comment deserves more attention
Maybe the hype ist finally over...

Neat trick: Instead of using parchment or wax paper, use cabbage to line your bamboo steamer. Preferably a napa cabbage. Clean, tastes good, and no having to throw anything away after.
Randy Robison would you still need to add oil to the cabbage or do the bao not stick to cabbage like they do parchment?
@@hannahmerlino2462 No you don't, the moisture in the cabbage is more than enough for all your bao needs!
Randy Robison
Damn thanks.
I thought it was common to use carrots. I see thinly sliced carrots on the bottom of the dim sum to avoid the sticking all of the time.
Cabbage? Always thought it was lettuce XD
I'm not even chinese but when he said 'baozi' like that i wanted to cry for some reason
I took Chinese for like 3 years in high school, and I am in pain whenever I watch this episode just because of that
Babish: We add in cooked pork into the raw pork to try and add in more of the pork favor.
Me the white washed asian: Ohh..So my grandma wasn't trying to poison me.
“Now let’s get this pork out onto a tray. Nice” HOW DO YOU KNOW ABOUT THESE ANCIENT MRE REVIEWING WORDS
you look nice
the ultimate showdown
mresteve1989 vs reportoftheweek
Knee Gus Steve1989Mre lol
mmkay
Omfg I went on a date to the movies, and this played before the movie, she cried and cuddled up to me for the three hour movie, was great, she dumped me like a week later but it was a great short movie
This anecdote was a whole ass roller coaster
*_cries in single_*
such joy
May i know why she dumped u
Scowl it was a high school romance doomed to fail cus she liked my friend more than me
This led me to watching "Bao" and, as with everything Pixar, was helplessly weeping at the end.
If you are curious to know the Chinese word baozi is actually pronounced like bow-tzuh. Similarly, the dumplings we know as potstickers are called jiaozi, pronounced tsyow-tzuh. They look great!
I was hoping someone would say this
Interesting! I know Japanese borrows a lot from Chinese, is that also the root of “gyoza”?
@@staralchemist129 I don't know much about Japanese but I'm guessing there is a similar root word. I'm specifically talking about Mandarin Chinese and there are so many dialects. A lot of the characters in written Chinese and Japanese are the same as well, so most likely they developed from the same roots
Including your mistakes as part of the video really boosts my confidence to try new things in the kitchen, much appreciated!

I have been scrolling through the comments and no one has noticed that Babish quoted Steve1989MREInfo
*_This is why I love this Channel_*
*_Babish, you Sly Devil_*
i saw one posted 2 years before this comment directly under it
no, it wasn't posted 2 years ago from now, it was posted 5 years ago from now, this comment was posted 3 years ago from now
I just wanted to watch the incredibles 2 but now I’m crying before the movie starts
is it just me or does 'lightly' and 'heavily' flowered work surface mean the same to him
''flowered''
Well it all depends on what dough you're making. You *flour* your work surface to prevent sticking, but some doughs dont need more flour in it than needed
Yes
Hm, what does he use? Daisies? Roses? Dandelions?
No, you just can’t tell the difference
LETS GET THIS OUT ON TO A TRAY, NICE!
nice hiss!
I laughed so hard at this
Stephen DeFoor I lost it when he did this
ⁿᶦᶜᵉ ˡᶦᵗᵗˡᵉ ʰᶦˢˢ
I love the fact that he includes his errors and trials and not just present ''the perfect recipe that is the best thing he has ever tasted"
I watched this short in the cinema before a movie, i never knew what it was called but it always stuck with me. Thanks babish for providing the name of the short.
I demand a crossover. Steve1989MREinfo and Binging With Babish. Make it happen or we riot
DEVIATE axb who that
Are we French or something?
I could see that working out great, open and try an MRE, then make a gourmet version of it.
I’m completely on board, say the word.
I mean, Steve does not really "cook" though. He just opens and sometimes eats MREs, giving the history behind them and teaches about the terminology. He might be able to cook, but I am not sure what exactly he would bring to a show like this. Like, maybe they could try to make gourmet versions of MRE meals, but most MRE food is already semi-gourmet. It just loses flavor in the preservation.
I can't believe he pulled a steve1989 without even warning us
Nice!
Mmkay
😂😂
Can any1 explain to me the joke?
Allah is God, God is Allah
I love dumplings, but I eat around 25 as a main food ( like how one would have steak) so when I make them for my family I usually end up making around 100-120
I love bao and haven't had it in years. I'm so glad I found this video that I'm going to add bao to my pandemic cooking list. Thank you!!
Babish, you should try making jelly donuts that look like Japanese rice balls, in honor of the infamous localization in the 4Kids dub of "Pokemon."
Definitely
I support this.
YES
And he can start the video like it's not only a frying pan but it's also a drying pan
Most definitely xDD
That steve1989MREinfo reference was quite....
Nice!
.
I loved it, didn’t even see it coming!
MRE Tasting with Babbish
jasondaman8 Shelton Benjamin!
Thats what I was thinking I was like doesn't someone else say this
My bf and I were scrolling through Disney + and he had never seen Bao. I had seen it three times due to seeing Incredibles 2 three times in theatres. We watched it and he was holding me while I cried and he sniffed and then said "Soooo Toy Story?"
We watched Babish to end the night and we're going to attempt some of the recipes!
Nice story
I have never in my life encountered these babies in any restaurant but I've seen them so much on TV I ache for them. Thanks to you I might as well just make them myself.
The trick for measuring oyster sauce and wine is to start with the sesame oil. It lines the measuring spoon so it comes out of the spoon smoother. I've made Bao and pot stickers a bunch and that always helps me get everything out of the spoon.
Still waiting on my krusty crab pizza and diet dr.kelp
This is a load of barnacles
If he makes that video my whole childhood will be complete
I remember seeing that animation while in the theater and I still think it was one of the best things I saw when I went out that day
The more videos I watch the more hilarious references to other TH-camrs I pick up on and I love it. Keep doing you man.
gotta love the steve reference there...
"Nice"
i thought it was south park's Randy
Same, I was just making food as well and actually dropped everything to run back to my computer and write something!
Made me snap a laugh. An internet insider joke.
Some of us watch too much youtube thats all
AHHH THE STEVE1989 REFERENCES!! please do some kind of crossover with him, i'd love to see that.
Recreate what an MRE was supposed to be originally.
Or, make a gourmet version of what the MRE is supposedly containing, just based on the descriptions.
OR, make an actual nice meal, only using MRE contents (or substitutes thereof) as ingredients.
My family always puts individual squares of parchment paper for bao! Makes it easier for removing and holding
“Hey, what’s up guys welcome back to binging with babish for this week we will be taking a look at”
Classic
An alternative to oiling the parchment paper is replacing the paper with cabbage leaf.
Nice Steve1989 reference there, you should remake MREs, a gourmet MRE
I think he’s hinting at something ;)
He could, but MREs are just preserved quick and dirty versions of gourmet food.
hahah yessss! ive been saying "nice" to everything for months
Nice hiss !
*nice*
"Let's get this guy out onto a tray." "Nice!"
Now that is the sign of a true food connosieur lol
I remember seeing that short animation at the movie theater. When she ate the bun I looked at my friend and said “when you have to eat your problems away,” and I hear a lot of people burst out in laughter and I didn’t notice how loud I said it. I was emberassed
I mean hey, at least you lightened up the mood in the theater.

I love watching Babish, but measure with ur eyes until ur ancestors whisper "okokstop" for the auThenTicItY.
pro tip: to taste dumpling fillings scoop a small spoonful onto a plate and microwave until cooked. Texture will be horrible but you can approximate the saltiness of it that way.
I usually just take a tiny bit, chew to taste and spit it out

Hi Andrew! My mom used to line the steamers with lettuce leaves, it makes it much easier and there’s no need for grease : >
bao is just that one episode of spongebob where spongebob falls in love with the krabby patty but you cry during it
To keep from sticking when steaming any sort of dough recipe like that I seen a lot of people use cabbage leaves to line the bottom not only does it keep the dough from sticking but apparently it helps to cook it better at least that's what the traditionalists say though I do agree that it helps keep it from sticking at least
Plus you get to munch on steamed cabbage leaves with your dumplings.
Although personally I think lotus leaves or even bamboo leaves work better
We always used banana leaves in my house (but I’m Indonesian so,,,,)

My mom's face lit up when she saw your video. Each Chinese family usually have their own way of wrapping, and she's got her own recipe of making baos, with different fillings, from Pork to Char Siew to Prawn and Salted Egg Custard. Btw, she LOLed hard when you didn't oil your parchment paper. Thanks Andrew!
I had to pause the video and STRESS to remember that reference, beautifully done.
Tip: put oyster sauce in a plastic squeeze bottle, to measure easier. Whatever is left in the original glass bottle: Save for soup or a sauce. When you're ready, add a bit of hot water/stock, cap it, and shake to thin it out and repeat till satisfactorily rinsed.
I love that he does the recipe from the source first then does his own take. It’s like he wants to respect the movie or show but try something new, add ideas, and tweak the recipe
