*Mrs. B:* "Have you ever been in a situation..."
*Me and Mr. B in unison* "Yes..."
I was recently in a situation where I had a knife, BUT NO ONION...
The straw one would be good for keeping your cup of noodles closed in the microwave.
A little late but I remember a tip from an old Good Eats episode that goes with the apple peeler hack. You can use a drill bit like that to core the apple (or pears, which the episode was using) by just using the bit as it was intended to be used. Just on a fruit rather than wood, and with a smaller diameter bit.
Popcorn Science: What causes corn to pop is a buildup of steam and pressure inside the kernel until it explodes. Conversely, a drier kernel won't pop because it doesn't have enough internal moisture to build up sufficient steam. Soaking your kernels before popping ensures they're properly hydrated, so that with the application of heat, they'll happily explode into the classic movie snack.
With that in mind, if dried kernels were soaked in a flavoured solution before popping, would those kernels absorb the flavour molecules in the solution?
@@GmodPlusWoW Probably not, since flavor molecules are much, much larger than the simple H\o/H of water. If anything, the flavor additives could impede hydration.
I absolutely heard that in the How its Made voice
I like how your comments read like a fun science teacher giving a demonstration
@@CarlGorn That's a pity. Though with that said, I wonder if there are any flavour molecules that are small enough to be absorbed by dry kernels in a solution.
For instance, would glucose and fructose be small enough to be soaked up into a kernel, causing the corn to caramelize in the heat? And if it were possible, would it be any different from kettle corn and caramel corn?
Becky's uncontrollable laughter at working the apple drill peeler made my day.
We need a “have you ever been in the situation” merch.
Take a shot every time Mrs. B says "bendy bit!" Y'all are fun...
Mrs Barry: “have you ever been in a situation when you’re spreading peanut butter….”
Me: ….stops spreading peanut butter to listen
😁😁😁
Quick, get it in the freezer...
😂😂😂
My popcorn hack is to keep the popcorn in the freezer. The idea is that the very cold kernels create more steam making for bigger popped kernels. It seems to work.
How where does the extra water come from it will only take longer because its could
@@Moffel_Pier condenstation?
@@DumbArse than throw them in water and they should get huge
@@Moffel_Pier or in a pressure cooker
@@Moffel_Pier popcorn pops because steam is created inside the kernel from the heat. So the cold creates more steam making for a bigger explosion.
Love how much more comfortable Mrs Barry is in front of the camera now, it's so lovely to see 😀
This video should be re-titled "Have you ever been in a situation...."
Also about a year ago, Barry said he would tell us a secret about the salt bae thing that he wasnt allowed to say.... and he would let us know in a year. So dish the dirt Baz.
I think not until october or november.
Tis november now Barry!
“I guess you could eat it!” Proceeds to fling it on the floor!
lol!
You missed a easy plug there Barry. 🤦🏻♂️ Quick and easy way to chop an onion without a knife... Barry Lewis veggie prep kit
He's not the type to do that tho!!
A tip with the salt block: it needs to preheat along with the oven! Do not put it into a hot oven or it might crack and split.
Guys, I read about that popcorn hack from the comments here ages back. I've been using it forever since! It really does work, supposed to dry them but it seems you don't have to. They come out really fluffy as well! Try that one you won't be left with broken teeth.
The phone hack reminded me of another. Put your phone in a ziplock bag to keep liquid out as well.
Now I need to go get some popcorn kernels and try the soaking trick!
That bit with the apple and the drill was so legendary :D
Salt blocks are great for cooking and they don't really impart a super salt flavor. Also great to freeze and serve charcuterie...or sushi. Love your channel and when you two do hacks together, you guys crack me up. Cheers!
Thanks a bunch, good tips and info appreciate it
I have a salt block that lives on my BBQ. It gets super hot for searing and gives an amazing char! 🥩🥓🍔😍
@@jatatech consider this technique stolen.
I think this may be my FAVORITE kitchen hacks video. I'm still laughing at the usual mild mannered Mrs. B gleefully peeling that apple with a twinkle in her eye!!
Possible new title for kitchen hacks? : - " What could go wrong ?".
Yeah, really! LOL!
LOVE IT! You and your lovely wife doing this video together. She's so funny. I love how you two work and communicate together. Great video! You two are so funny together!
Saw the thumbnail & though it must be Barry choosing the hacks….. Mrs B is getting bold!
Mrs B saying "Have you ever been in the situation when..." is always a cause for concern
Oh, the apple peeler is the funniest thing in ages. Please, have Mrs B pick more hacks. Thanks for the fun video.
This is the first time in 6 or more more momths your video has shown.up in my feed even thogh im sunscribed and have all notifications on.
Thanks for watching, i've no idea why that's happening - getting quite a few messages like that
Check and make sure your notifications are set to all. Same thing was happening to me with a different TH-camr, I found out somehow my notifications got switched from all to personalized. May not be the solution but worth a check.
That first little clip tell so much about how this video is going to go!!! Cheers!! I love it
Re: Popcorn hack... the botanical explanation is that it works because it increases the moisture inside the kernel (like all seeds, it's somewhat breathable and exchanges air and water with the outside world). Soaking them allows more moisture to go into the kernel which is stored in a little pocket in the kernel which when cooked, builds up pressure and explodes, making the popcorn (this is why kernels "expire," they get too dried up so have no steam to explode them)
Didn't a company make peanut butter slices at one time? I think they were wrapped like sliced cheese is. I'm going to have to Google it and make sure I wasn't just remembering wrong 😂😂. Edited to say I looked them up and they came out in 2008 but just kind of disappeared. Thanks for the 💜
I was thinking of those too! 😂
@@Kdaisy47 they kind of looked like some smoked cheese 😂😂
My god the smoke coming off the peeler when Mrs. B whizzes the drill is just wow! And the apple flinging off at the end is just hilarious xD
Frozen peanut butter - smooth and crunchy at the same time!
Have you ever been in a situation where…??? 😂😂😂😂 Just the way Mrs. B says it each time.
Mrs B has a devious side to her as we have seen in this video and I love it
"You did it, thanks."
I actually DID audibly go "Bayehaheha", and was disappointed you didn't. Hah. XD
Not going to lie I really like the peanut butter slab. It's also really nice to see Mrs Berry being more comfortable in front of the camera good on you mate!
Try the bendy straw again but leave some length both before after the bend so that it actually grasps and bends to the lip on the yogurt pot if that makes sense- so the actual bend sits on the front lip
"Salt Bea bed". That's funny. The big square white salt blocks would be his pillows as well.
Thinly sliced steak on a salt block tastes awesome (don't season first) but then ruins the appearance. One for presentation, one for cooking on. Wet things like sliced strawberries take on some saltiness. Do the strawberry test before the block soaks up the meat juice flavour.
Oh wow! Accidentally got here early.
Thanks for the years of amazing content, Barry.
Hi Barry! Here in Tucumán, Argentina we use a grater with a can like the one you made it to make a traditional food named Humita, you grate fresh yellow corn 🌽 that was previously soaked in water to soften, yo mix that grated corn with pumpkin puree an cook it with sauted green onions and lots of paprika! If you love paprika and corn you'll love it!!
That peanut butter round on a big brownie and microwave! OOOOooooo
Question, if I have no knife to cut my onion how do I cut my onion in half??? 😂😂
I love it when you two do hacks tougher. It's funny 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I flinched when the apple came flying at the camera
The frozen peanut butter slice reminds me of the caramel slices for putting over apples.
I can't ever hear the word seal anymore without doing the thing .... thanks Barry lol
Wholesome time with Barry and Mrs Moose
Pro Tip: Don't try to wash the salt block in the sink. It litterally disolves. Someone did that where I bought one.
“If we whisper, the internet won’t hear.” 🤣
I can endorse the clingfilm-phone hack: I work in a warehouse where we deal with some fairly unpleasant dust that plays hell with electronic bits. But a plastic bag (or, preumsably, a bit of clingfilm) takes care of things perfectly.
Mrs. B... the channel wouldn't be the same without you. It's the Lewis Family channel!
Freezing a layer of peanut butter like that honestly sounds useful when making desserts.
@12:40 "I really want some cheese that I've managed to forage"
Kids, don't eat cheese that you find in the woods
These weren’t Mrs B’s finest hacks but always a good watch 😂👌🏽
Looks like you all had fun!
The way the popcorn works is that water is a really good conductor of heat and water soaks into the kernels
I personally find that putting the oil and corn into a cold pan on a cold stove and heating it all up at together gets all the kernels to heaz up more evenly and thus almost all of them pop
@13:00 Hilarious ! Also I notice we have to do our own by-ee-yas now.
MrsB is a hoot in this one. BTW on the straw my calculation is you have to cut it to a length that would allow the bendy bit to be at the center and long enough to hold down half the circumference of the container. I'm sure there is a math whiz out there that can explain it better.
Oh, I just love her! She is so funny! And she's not even trying to be funny. She is just a lovely, lovely Lady. Ya know what? I'm kinda thinking that Barry married up. I think the whole family is just wonderful!
More fun with popcorn...hand some kernels and a skillet to your non-cooking friends and ask them to fry it for you...it's hilarious to see their faces when it goes flying...and it'll give your puppies a tasty treat too.
The popcorn ones seems simple, the layer gets permeated by the water making it less strong so the kernels are more likely to pop.
Not quite. What makes the kernels pop is the water inside turning into steam - the unpopped kernels have gone stale and too dry.
What kind of maniac doesn't butter their bread when making a peanut butter sandwich? That's like half the enjoyment right there.
8:31 Yes I did. XD
At this point it is pretty much a Pavlovian response.
Always happy to see a hacks video or any video with Mrs B!
Who knew apple peeling could be so entertaining and funny
I like the peanut butter grate it for topping or enjoy a slightly frozen sammich
I actually love the peeling onion idea for salads & sandwiches. I love onion but I don't particularly like biting into thick pieces & in salads I don't like breaking up the rings. I also have a cucumber & onion salad recipe that would be spectacular with thinly shaved onions.
I’ve save the plastic straws whenever I got one over last 2 years. So I have plenty to use. My daughter makes fun but she usually get a straw from me
I like the onion hack. Note Barry's veggie prep kit used. Yes I have it. Stonking
Haha that peanut butter sandwich had a peanut hutter tongue 🤣😂🤣😂
7:19 almost made my have a spit take with my coffee Barry.
“Have you ever been in the situation where your wife asks you if you have ever been in the situation….”
Mrs.B With a power drill is the scariest thing I’ve seen this week🤣
where would one forage cheese? haha this show is so good
Have you ever been in a situation...
Barry: YES
Mrs. B is too cute 😍. Also u have an onion and a peeler but no knife, makes total sense. Lol. That's funny. Although peeling an onion with a peeler is actually kinda smart 😀
One of the better ones
That's a salt lick for horses but in a posh box 😉🤣
Wow, the bread for the peanut butter slice looked really good lol
Since you have some plastic straws now, have you ever been in a situation where you need to make individual, portable, spice containers? All you need is plastic straws, something to crimp with, and a lighter or other heat source.
Thanks for another great episode in the series, Barry!
the water gets turned into steam and with it on the kernel it pops faster.
Cooking on a salt block means you don't have to add salt. Like cooking on a cast iron pan adds a bit of iron to the food.
Nice one thanks
Oh, no. Now he actually believes it. Salt your food, please!
I'm dyin, lol. "If we whisper the internet won't hear." X.x
the popcorn hack is great....love making popcorn, I will soak it first
Yaaay! :) my favorite series is back! :) Good to see you again, Barry! :)
"Have you ever needed to chop something but don't have a knife? Step 1. Get a knife"
Mr and Mrs Barry are so cute, giggling together 😂😁
"have you ever needed to cut thin slices of onion and you haven't got a knife?" .... Barry : *side glances at Barry lewis veg prep kit*
Omg! New kitchen that means I have missed out on so many of your vdos. 😍😍😍😍
Yes, that has been a Year lol
@@mrbarrylewis I'll do a marathon of everything I have missed 😁😁😁 yaaaaaa!!!
The hand made grater is how a lot of people in the Caribbean grate stufff , but we don’t use a can it’s just a sheet of metal
You guys are great together 👍
Tried the popcorn hack in the "air popper" doohicky. I lost more popped corn to the floor than unpopped kernels at the bottom of the machine. Will be soaking them from now on.
mrs barry is getting a lot more confident in the videos. well done
We still have about 80 straws left from a 100 pack we bought... 3 years ago? I'm not sure where they are anymore lol
Barry and Becky: The apple thing reminds me of my grampa! He was very inventive because my family was quite poor when he was young so he always had to get creative when a solution had to be found. He stuck a toilet brush to a long metal rod and clamped the other end into a large drill, then took a bucket full of potatoes and water, held the drill and attachment in and actually peeled large quantities of potatoes! Wouldn't that be a hack to try out? But not in the kitchen - at least I wouldn't recommend it :D
Video starts with a drill.... yeah this should be fun
lol!
I started to notice that when the bread starts ripping apart when you spread peanut butter. it's normally after the bread comes out of the freezer. I think it breaks down the bread and makes it much more weak.
The peeler one is also good for doing parsnip crisps
This was more about the pair of you than the hacks....lovely stuff 😁
Foraging for cheese, sounds interesting.
.... The glimpses into their marriage is so cute.
"Why MY phone, tho?!"
When camping, we use a snack bag on the phone. One that seals waterproof (zipper,etc) as a phone protector.
I now want a peanut butter sandwich!!!! 😂 not had one of them for years! All my kids, 8 and 1 granddaughter, I’m not that old I promise 😂 they all hate it so rarely have it in my fridge 🙄😥
You okay there, Bar???
You completely missed the great opportunity for a "breaking bread" dad joke!!!
