    I recall an episode where Julia was constantly stirring a sauce on the stove. She said that it needed to be stirred constantly. Then she said that, while stirring you happen to see your baby on the windowsill getting ready to fall out; let him fall!

    Jamie, as a former professional baker, please flour your surfaces better! Especially because you dont have a large wooden surface but a hard, non-porous surface. It does not wick moisture from the dough for easier handling. Heavier flour will save you a lot of heartache.
    When rolling this dough, it's exactly like a cinnamon roll. Don't use parchment or tinfoil, just a floured surface, and start all along the edges of the rectangle to curl the edge under, then light stretch the dough as you roll it up. Use a bit of water or egg wash to seal the edge.
    Lastly, err on the side of using more dough and not rolling it so thin. You can always cut the excess away, but it's hard to handle thinly rolled dough.
    That said, your videos are always entertaining, and I do love the chaos of your process. From one Canadian to another, good luck!

I baked bread every week and by the end, the most bread products I made in one weekend was a double batch of English Muffins, a batch of Everything Bagels, Loaf of White Sandwich bread and Sourdough Artisan Loaf. Also, instant yeast freezes for up to a year and you don't even have to thaw it when you use it. Just keep it in the freezer. I buy mine by the pound.

    When your dough gets stuck like that and youve backed yourself into a corner, try to invert the recipe onto a pan before giving up. Especially since ingredients are too expensive these days.You can still make the other one for the final version.
    To invert the cake take a pan/cutting board place onto of the cake and flip. Now since the seems are facing up take the pan you want to bake the cake on and place it on top and flip one more time. (Of course after you seal those edges properly) I comnend you for not giving up. It loiked really good. You should be really proud of how far you've come in your journey with grit and determination. Well done sir.

    Icing is thin and usually is made with milk or water. Frosting is thick and usually made with fat or something with a lot of fat like butter or cream cheese. There's some other technical stuff, but this is a general description.

    • @clawtooth35
      @clawtooth35 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      though in British English we tend not to use the term frosting at all - so we refer to things specifically as "water icing", "buttercream icing", "cream cheese icing" etc.

    Jamie. thanks again for another entertaining video. When I was in my early 30s in the 1990s my wife bought me the two volumes set. Julia Childs, the art of French cooking. At that time, I was kind of determined a little bit like you have tried to do the recipes. I failed miserably. I gave up! Being a full time chef at the time, plus running a catering business and having a full family of three kids. I didn't have any hobby time to enjoy cooking the way I do now. Watching your videos brings back great memories and great failures. Thank you.

    I think my favorite viewer-suggested name was Whizzy Miss Lizzy, but The Machine is pretty good too. Fun fact, mace - basically nutmeg husks - really _does_ have some relation to the defense spray, if distantly. The spice is named for the fact that a nutmeg still on the tree with the husk intact looks like a medieval mace, and the tear gas brand is named for the fact that it smacks you in the face like a mace.

    When I read the "politically incorrect cake" I thought about the "tête de n*gre", literally "n*gger's head" which was a dessert sold in french bakeries. It's still available today but most bakeries have renamed it either "chocolate head" or "choco-ball". But some people probably still call it by the old name XD
