Cara-mel and I are good friends, we are past that formal stage and they let me call them carmel.
😂
Incredible. Now imagine it's Christmas and you're making confections to give away in a pretty be-ribboned box. Inside the box will be this recipe. But it will be cut up into bite sized morsels, with each portion dipped into quality dark chocolate - just enough for a very thin coating. Sigh. Glen, I appreciate you.
Hi Debbie - I make the option you described and give it away for gifts at Christmas. You were obviously thinking t along the same lines as me! BRILLIANT!🇨🇦😌🇨🇦
❤❤👌👌✌✌😘😘
What about a thin layer of crushed candy canes
Oooo! I like the way you think. I was just thinking drizzling some chocolate on the top but maybe just a whole thin layer of chocolate.
@@ebhendricks Not sure mint and peanuts work unless it's an alternative flavor of candy canes?
As a Michigander, I support your pronunciation of “carmel” 😂
Iowan here, and I've always said carmel.
I’m from southern Indiana, and also support the ‘carmel’ pronunciation. Saying ‘caramel’ just sounds like I’m trying to put on airs 😂
I use both (Michigander that lived in NE Indiana and moved to SE Indiana). Carmel coloring, caramel filling.
@@callaw.8869 Detroiter here, I agree completely. Only snooty folk say caramel.
I grew up in the PNW and we called pronounced it the same way.
Glen's comment about self regulation was for me because I so want to make this.
This is my favorite couple on the internet.
As a native Californian who lived in Canada for many years, I’ve had the caramel conversation before. The funniest part to me is that the city here is pronounced car-mel, adding another variable to the situation.
Yeah, that was a record scratch moment for me. CAR-mul, California??? Please, it's Car-MEL.
I was born and raised in San Jose and came here to make a similar comment lol
Shit I made mine before I scrolled down 😂 Napa myself, though lived in mountain view, Vallejo, and Berkeley.
Yep, CarMEL, emphasis on the second syllable.
Live in CarMel, CA and can confirm :) There is also one in Indiana but I'm not sure how they pronounce theirs.
It's like eating a homemade Payday candy bar.
Only better!
I was just trying to think of the name! Payday, 🎉 Soooo yummy!
That was my first thought.
Yep. That's one of my favorites as well. 😊
Paydays don’t have pretzels. A carmel log rolled in salted peanuts.
As a southern girl, Carmel is the proper pronunciation.. As a 60-something year old,… EAT ANOTHER PIECE!! Your life is meant to be lived! LIVE IT!!! Enjoy!
As my uncle says, "Life is uncertain. Eat dessert first!"
Absolutely, Leslie. I couldn't have possibly said it better myself. 😊😉
Up my alley! No chocolate is needed lol. Now I am your age Glen and grew up in Toronto…and I have to admit I pronounce the A and twitch a little when I hear Carmel. But as my kids would say “ Mom that sounds like a YOU problem” and I have to concur with that. 😂
I grew up saying 'CARmel', so agree with you too. Grew up in Washington state. The city in CA is not CARmel, it is carMEL.
Just wanted to say you have one of the best channels on TH-cam. Only found you a few months back, but I love it! As someone from Florida, I also say car-mel 😊
Regarding your advice about hot sugar, I'm reminded of the time I made hard crack toffee and stupidly decided to taste it by swiping some with my finger off the spoon. 3 hours I sat with my hand in ice water before I could bear to move it. I'm just glad I didn't lick it.
As if I needed to love you more, the caramel pronunciation thing is a constant battle in my head. I am from Michigan originally and it will always be carmel for me. ❤
My part of upstate NY said “carmel”, also. Maybe parts of states bordering Canada did. That looks so good!
It's carmel in Cincinnati also.
Yes! Walk into a candy shop in Michigan and ask for "caramel". Let us Michiganders know what happens...
"If you have problems with self-regulation, possibly not the recipe for you." LOL
My parents don't watch a lot of TH-cam, so I always relay your latest videos. After about half an hour of telling my mom about these squares, she asked if I could copy off the recipe. Looks like I'll be trying these soon!
I am sooo happy that I just happened to see this video...I hope that you (Jules, too) know that your videos are so wonderful! They're entertaining but more importantly they're very
educational...and that's not a bad thing. Please keep making them!!! Take care and stay safe!
❤🎉❤🎉
What a perfect Saturday morning video…looks delicious, will be making this shortly…cheers from N.B.
English is a living and dynamic language, so I wouldn’t worry about carmel vs. caramel. I often say carmel myself - not Canadian, but lifelong resident of Ontario’s south shore, so close enough. Also,as I watched this, I thought about maybe sprinkling chocolate chips over the pretzel crust before baking, then using pecans or other nuts instead of peanuts. This does sound absolutely delicious, and yes evil, and I must try it. Thank you for a yummy recipe!
Evil or not, I’m making this! Also, I thought the California town is pronounced CarMEL (though, who cares).
I was shocked when he said the California town and mispronounced the name. As a native Californian and having visited and lived an hour or so away from that town, I always pronounced it as CarMEL too.
I live next door to ya, in Arizona. I’ve only heard the carMel pronunciation.
You had me at evil. 😂😋
I don't usually make candy, but that looks like a keeper.
BTW, native Californian here. As a child in the 50s and 60s I always heard "carmel." Later television ads used "car-a-mel" which cause me to think I must be in error and had to change.
Thanks for this option Glen! Due to having Crohn’s disease, I cannot eat a number of things…one of those being Carmel Corn…so this is a DELICIOUS option!
I live on the West Coast and call it “CAR-MEL” as well.
Have a great weekend!🇨🇦😌
This is one of those recipes that you want to try two pieces of, but don't want the rest tempting you. Looks fantastic - Thanks Glen and Julie.
Imagine those little squares then dipped in melted chocolate! 😋
Chocolate on top? More yum! I would love this, but it is not on my diet, so I will just enjoy watching you eat it. Thank you!
I was going to say that as long as he's going this far into evilness, he may as well go the rest of the way and top it with chocolate.
This looks fantastic, like the homemade version of a "PayDay" bar. I grew up on the East Coast and I say "car-mel". In Missouri, where I now live, they say "car-mel". Only on television have I heard anyone actually pronounce it as "car-a-mel."
Check out Glen's saltine toffee crunch for another evil recipe. You'll need to exercise caution, as they're so very addictive!
Made this with almond M&M's. put them on top of the pretzel crust after it cooled while the caramel was heating and pressed them in before covering with the caramel, OMG that is truly EVIL on a new level!!!
I added dark chocolate chips. But my big tip is to pay attention to the size of the pretzel crumbs. I should have given it a couple more pulses in the Cuisinart my first time with this recipe.
Agree. I didn't make them small enough nor let it cool enough. Some parts has pretzels inside and it's not bad
That looks so ooo good!!! Yum
For Caramel I always added the butter/cream after I took the melted sugar off the heat! It sounds like you can add everything all at once! I learned something new today! Thanks!
Can not wait to make this!! Yum.
Just exactly what I needed today! Can't wait to try it.
Yummy in the Tummy
This recipe looks SO good!!! Thanks for sharing!!!
Could also see this with a chocolate or butterscotch layer!
I was just thinking about a scattering of chocolate chips over the top.
Love butterscotch.
Would you add the peanuts then half the caramel, then chocolate chips and the remaining caramel?
@@maremacd I'd do the chocolate/butterscotch layer on the top. I'm thinking a ganache would be a good choice.
that longing look at the pure evil squares 🤣
Wow...I will be making this...I will venture into the danger zone!!
"If you have a problem with self-regulation!" Indeed. "Well, Coroner, cause of death a combination of tasty Pretzel Peanut Caramel Squares and a lack of self-regulation?" "That's how I see it, Inspector. Say; there's half a platter left of those treats. Shall we?"
That looks sinfully delicious.
I just made this and it's obscenely delicious.
This video made Hubs and me LOL! "I thought oh, that looks good. Then I realized it was one of our videos, from 2012." Hahaha! This Pure Evil reminded me of a gas station counter impulse product from the past, called Peco Candy. -- Decaden 3 inch diameter discs of praline-ish caramel, peanuts and coconut. "There's a reason we never made these again." LOLOL! Love you guys!
YUMMMMMY!.... I'm going to have to make this.
😂😎👍👍 nailed the sentiment and the pronunciation 🎉🍻
We say it the same in Tennessee! You're good!!
Thank you
I honestly say Carmel and caramel interchangeably. I might say carmel a little more often but I know I use both.
I’m kind of similar, though I do have a loosely defined rule. The cheap stuff from a bottle or a can is carmel. Homemade stuff or expensive imported, that’s caramel.
I grew up seeing it spelled carmel in old cookbooks. I was surprised when someone showed me a label with it spelled caramel.
Definitely adding this to my repertoire. You do you. Carmel it is!
It's too good to make!
It's mixed here where I'm from. I've been a 'caramel' person my whole life, but my wife, who grew up just 50 miles away, says 'carmel.' We both insist the other is wrong, any time it comes up, lol.
I have to make that!!!
This looks delicious! I made your rice crispy/milky way bars last week ...this looks even better
Going off-topic here, Julie that's a lovely sweater you've got on. I love the colour pooling in it.
Growing up in Northeast Ohio, we called it Carmel- like Kraft Carmels, but we also used the term Car-a-mel meaning that real soft viscous version that you find in candy bars.
I’m in my early 60s and from the west coast of the US. I pronounce caramel the way you do. This looks amazing and I must make it as soon as possible!
This looks wonderful, and exactly the kind of thing I didn't need to know about while having a load of pretzels and almonds to use up. Might have to add in a load of rice krispies or something, just to make myself feel more okay with it!
Glen.. We here in California pronounce the city Carmel "Car-Mel"
I could see channeling Chef John and adding some cayenne. That sweet, salty, spicy combo would be good.
I was thinking some spicy peanuts, just a few.
BBQ peanuts or the hickory smoked almonds.
My mum used to make something similar when I was a kid, except it was a shortbread type base instead of the pretzels. So delicious and I dont really like peanuts, but I LOVED this!
My kids would absolutely love this. I'm not so sure if I could handle it.
Addition of chocolate chips would tip the scale to total evil. Snickers with pretzel.
Yum!
In the USA, it’s Carmel like city😁. Truly, I have never heard any other way. Recipe sounds amazing!
As a Yooper, I have to agree that carmel is the correct way! These look soooo good.
This looks amazing! I am from MA in the US and I say caramel the same way you do. That's the right way. ;) I shall make this SOON!
ONE AND A HALF CUPS OF FRESH CREAMERY BUTTER!
I’m from California … I support your Carmel pronunciation too !!! Accent on the first syllable for the candy … accent on the second syllable for the geographical locations … EASY👍🏼
I approve of this pronunciation.
It would be great around the holidays in a gift tin.
WOW!
I'm from Seattle, and I and everyone I know pronounces it like you do, Glen.
We here in Chicagoland also say "carmel"... lol. Keep up the good work!
My daughter had injured herself and is in a lot of pain. I thought that I'd make her a treat. I remembered seeing this video so I gave them a try. They were excellent and helped cheer her up. The only problem I had was using unbroken pretzels and trying to break them up while mixing them with the sugar and butter. I should have used a food processor first.
I call it car-mel when taking about apples or popcorn (something super sticky and firm), and caramel when taking about a sauce. Just another weird quirk from my home, in Utah. 😊😂
No matter how you say it it's good
These look fantastic. In my mind carmels are those little square individually wrapped Kraft candies and caramel is a sauce.
😮😊❤ Glenn has broken the internet ❤😊😮
These look amazing. I too pronounce it carmel. I actually live on the central coast of California and the city in reference is pronounce "Car-mel' down here. Definitely be careful with sugar, when I was a child my parents were making mixed nut brittle for the holidays and some slid off the cookie sheet onto my mother's foot landing her in the ER with 2nd degree burns.
Just made it. OMG.
Born and bred 70 year old Missourian. Carmel all the way.
Oh yeah!!
I'm from the US (Massachusetts), and I say carmel, too.
That is some good stuff... Oh deliver us from temptation, blessings 💖🙏👑✝
Looks amazing, tho I'm definitely in the "in needs some dark chocolate" camp. I think I'll try that sometime. Thanks Glen!
Around Philadelphia Pennsylvania we pronounce it as Carmel also
I did this and it twas amazing!! 2nd Time I used Cashews and it was even better!!
I just watched the video for the first time today. Since you just made these recently, can you tell me if there was a mistake in the amount of corn syrup written compared to what Glen added in the video? It looks as though Glen added 1/4 cup corn syrup but the written instructions say 3/4 cup. Thanks
Carmel also used in southern Minnesota.
“Carmel” pronunciation all the way, Glen! I say it the same way as you, and I am from Zeeland, Michigan. That said, it tastes great no matter how you pronounce it.😊
Thank you for another great recipe!
I was born and raised in New Jersey and say caramel the same way.
Now i know what pure evil looks like! Thanks for the warning.
Language is such a wonderfully fluid thing, some folks here in the Northern US, my grandmother included, say carmal/carmel rather than caramel. I make butter caramels in a very similar way but instead of peanuts I use slivered almonds or crushed pistachios, and no pretzels as I often make this as gifts and many of my close friends and family either have peanut allergies or celiac. This though, this is something I should make for my grandmother, as it has all of the things she'd just love.
An Australian candy company makes bars of a concoction very similar to this. they were my favourite as a child.
"You're taking that to work tomorrow." 😂😂😂
So wrong, yet, so, right! I must try this recipe soon. And, my parents raised me to pronounce it carmel too.
I remember always calling the candy Kraft "carmels"... but chocolate bars with caramel... Fascinating entomology of the words we use.
I grew up in western Pennsylvania, and we always pronounced it car-mel.
I'm in Iowa. We always say carmel. I thought the City in California put the accent in the second syllable. As in car MEL. It's Mt Carmel or Mt Karmel, I saw road signs spelling it both ways when I visited the Middle East. However you soell it ir pronounce it, this is delicious.
Living in the Southern U.S. for a while now I've figured out that most people around me say "caramel" if its more of a liquid, and "carmel" if its a solid candy.
Ok... going to make this for a Christmas platter!!!!
I think every life should have some well chosen evil in it....
It’s carmel for me! Greetings from Ohio!
