PSA for working with Sodium Carbonate (aka soda ash, aka baked baking soda). It can be caustic enough to cause skin irritation, especially on those with sensitive skin. It's advisable to use gloves as a precaution.
I'm in love with her! He gives me a lot of comfort, and I really value the way she describes things in detail rather than just categorizing them as good or bad. She gives some examples and discusses the flavor and how it feels. I genuinely love the way she speaks.
Same here! I also love that when she doesn't like something she's also super nice about it. Never says it's disgusting. Just says "This is not delicious." ❤
I'm really struggling with ptsd and your videos are one of few things that can calm my mind these days. Thank you for sharing your delight for food and life with everyone. 💛
I don't know what your triggers are, but I find the voice of the Hoof GP on TH-cam very soothing. He trims cows hooves in Southwest Scotland. There is some pus and rarely a bit of blood seen. But you can tell that he loves the cows and his work by the way he talks as he describes what he is doing.
i love your videos and channel! ive been watching them for almost a decade now. i have an eating disorder that makes it very hard for me to try new foods and remember to eat, so watching a channel of someone being brave and adventurous while also providing detailed description of taste and texture makes me SO excited to eat and try new things, without all the fear! plus, i know if i dont like something, its all part of the adventure! im so so appreciative of your work, its medicine for my unmedicatable illness.
"It looks so stinking cute!"......laughing so hard only because Emmy means it. Love when she posts a video about tasty looking treats!! Watching from Wisconsin!
TIP: WEAR GLOVES and WASH YOUR HANDS ...because that is not "baking soda" any more. It's gone from sodium BI-carbonate to plain Sodium Carbonate with a much stronger alkalinity.
Hey Emmy- it’s always been on my bucket list to make homemade pretzels. You never cease to amaze me with these fun ideas. Just think of all the fun things you can make with the dough- how about a pretzel camel or manatee.
I am definitely making this for my Vegan and plant-based family. They were laughing when I showed them a picture of the bread. Of course it's going to be filled with vegetables and plant meat.I can't wait!
My pretzel recipe calls for you to soft boil your pretzels in a saltwater bath. They turn out delicious. It's my son's go-to favorite snack food, and he has become the master chef pretzel maker. Great video, Emmy! ❤❤❤
I always have ramen seasoning packets cuz i only use a third of a packet, store it away and use it again on the next ramen. So we use them for adding a touch of seasoning to lots of other foods. I love that she did that.
I've made pretzels once with a friend but we used ordinary baking soda. The baked baking soda isn't 'concentrated', it's chemically altered by heat to become a different chemical which needs a lot more caution when using than baking soda. It might be good to put a warning on the video to say this.
I saw the actual LaLa video making these I don't think they did pretzel. It was amazing to watch them do this in mass. You did great btw. Going to look into the Blue land too Thanks, as always you make me smile! ❤
You can also bake sodium bicarbonate, which becomes sodium carbonate, for making alkali noodles, like ramen. That's where the distinctive yellow color of fresh ramen comes from.
lye was a way to preserve fish in scandanavia that they would rehydrate and eat with butter and mash potatoes. lye was made by water running throuth woodash in the old fox fire books. lutefisk is very good and a luthran church tradition.
If you steamed it rather than the oven I wonder if it would be like baozi. Of course, it wouldn't look like a cooked chicken. Just thinking out loud, sort of.
So I have never seen this before and I thought it was so cute I wanted to see what this famous bread it like. I watched the whole video and I saw a few things that would likely improve the outcome. When they use the bath for the drumsticks they put it on the side of the bowl so only the 'meat' of the drumstick gets the bath. The 'bone' was never bathed and remained outside, which was how it stayed white. The white bone and brown meat is what gave it the drumstick effect. For the whole chicken it looks like they put the vent cuts near the top of the chicken where the neck would be so it split more naturally. Also they made the wings and the legs of the chicken pretty small and thin. The technique reminded me of the way that street vendors pull sugar candy to make animal paws. The way they did it was amazing, and you could tell they had refined their dough-to-chicken skills! For a first try at making pretzels and shaping little breads this was very well done! It's always hard to account for how much the shapes will rise when baked so I'm not sure I would fare any better.
Careful with thinking it's just concentrated baking soda. It's sodium carbonate, also known as soda ash, and probably shouldn't be used interchangeably in your everyday recipes.
Sodium carbonate is available in food safe grades. Sodium carbonate is what you made when you baked your baking soda because the heat from the oven drove off some of the carbon dioxide from the baking soda.
I wondered how you would substitute for lye. Baked baking soda, so interesting. I could try that with bagels! Could be a good way to repurpose an old box.
The coating on detergent pods/tablets is not really a plastic in the usual sense. It is polyvinyl alcohol which completely dissolves in water, is non-toxic and is broken down and consumed by several species of bacteria. I would be willing to bet it is used in both that paper bag and on that blue box just like it is used in many shiny paper, paint and carboard products.
Great video. Whoever edits it needs headphones with better bass response so they can notice when there's a ground loop hum that should be notched out of the audio.
Love your videos Emmy! May I suggest......after you remove from their bath, let it sit to dry the surface a bit and rise a bit, then egg wash them right before you bake (maybe a little rock salt too before bake) would love to see you do this again =) Many Thanks, and Cheers from CANADA!
WHY is that so adorable?? I mean, we're basically making bread that looks like a dead bird😂😂😂 Humans are WEIRD!😂😂😂 NB: What you're doing by baking the baking soda is converting sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3) to sodium carbonate (Na2CO3). While sodium BIcarbonate is fairly benign, be aware that sodium carbonate can be caustic in high concentrations and cause chemical burns. Also, you can do this conversion on a stove top in about 10 minutes: just put some baking soda in a pan and heat on medium. The powder will start to "bubble" as water and hydrogen are produced. Once the bubbling stops the reaction is done. You can then use the sodium carbonate to fix dyes in tie dye (depending on the type of dye). Also a great "helper" for getting laundry clean: 1/2 cup per load with detergent.
Sodium Carbonate would be a better option for replacing the lye bath, as it's a stronger base than Bicarbonate, but not as strong as Sodium Hydroxide which is a pretty nasty chemical to get on your skin, just make sure to get the food-grade stuff, as the most common use of Sodium Carbonate is as washing soda, just to be sure it's as pure as it can be... :)
Did you know that water, yeast and sugar produces a smell that attracts bedbugs? So if anyone has a bedbug prob then can make traps using that concoction to help catch them.
in my country, there is a version of this but instead of a chicken, its a whole pig. Its a substitute to lechon as a centerpiece when you cant afford a lechon.

I have a German background and have never made pretzels because I didn’t know how to do the bath. Thank you for this demonstration.
My wife braids turkeys out of challah for Thanksgiving the past 2 or 3 years.
Cute!🦃
Why
Just cook a turkey
@@grabble7605 we do...
I like that idea as just a cute bread but I have to admit I just had a moment to myself where I longingly imagined a meat and cheese filled Challah.
@@sesa2984 Oooohhhh that's what I'm talking about
The crunch when you took that bite from the drumstick was beautiful
I hope you can take a vacation to Korea with your family and taste a bunch of food for us!! Love the way you describe the flavors
I've only ever baked baking soda to make soda ash for tie dye. Pretty cool that there's more than one purpose for doing that.

Emmy, absolutely adorable and tasty looking. Will definitely try this when I have guests over next. Thanks for sharing.
We love a queen who doesn't use buzzwords like "clean ingredients" or "toxic chemicals".
Hey Emmy- it’s always been on my bucket list to make homemade pretzels. You never cease to amaze me with these fun ideas. Just think of all the fun things you can make with the dough- how about a pretzel camel or manatee.
Since I had two batches of dough, I made regular soft pretzels as well and they were great!
@@emmymade yum/ but a pretzel manatee would still be pretty fun ❤️❤️❤️❤️

That's how I do my pretzels too. ❤
I'm guessing she avoided that with this recipe because the heat from boiling would've disformed the shapes
Emmy makes everything fun and simple to follow!! ❤
Ive seen people say that baking soda doesn't quite replicate lye but that looks amazing.
emmy's shirt today gave her an excellent pumpkin costume! the turkey bread adds on to the unintentional fall theme lol
Those things are so darn cute! Emmy is one of my favorite cooking channels because she does interesting projects.
SO stinking cute!

That's also sadly the reason I can't eat many fresh noodles in my place, the soapy taste is disgusting

Also called washing soda...
When you bake it you are driving off CO2 and converting the bicarbonate to carbonate.
The thumbnail looks like me after Thanksgiving dinner. 🤣

Boiling your noodles in baked baking soda/sodium carbonate is supposed to make it like ramen noodles without having to find kansui. (Idk though)

425 is killer hot on dough. 325-350 for 5 minutes longer with better results.
this is so silly, second I read the title it made me laugh

The best discovery concerning pretzels is the pretzel croissant. Thank you for the fun video, Emmy!
So is a bagel the same as a pretzel because it goes through the same bath stage ?

Tge Chicken and drumstick shapes are so cute. But when i make this ill keep it super simple cuz imm not very crafty.
Maybe add some pretzel salt on top? Or will it be too salty?
Her natural lip color in contrast to her skin color is beautiful
I want some now.
a bit a honey mustard and i'm there
So stinkin cute I gotta make this
Does anyone have a link, for where we could purchase the small white dish that Emmy has in 3:12 ?
Baking baking soda in the oven also makes it washing soda great for household cleaning
Exactly! I used the leftovers to scrub my shower. 😆
Where did you get that bowl for your kitchenmade mixer? I can't find a glass one.
