Sohla: "Was there Mac & Cheese in the 18th Century?" Me, who knows that Thomas Jefferson loved it so much that he imported it from France in quantities that almost caused a shortage: "Probably, I'm not sure."

[@natelovellette2713]

Huh.... I learned something new today

[@tendaiphiri3062]

I know this too and in great detail. The funny short version is he loved it and imported both macaroni and the cheese from France so it could be made here because his noodle machine had issues. The sad longer version was he sent his enslaved hostage, James Hemings, who was also his wife’s half brother to France to be trained as a chef. Hemings would have been free in France but he likely was threatened before leaving for France and then to return back to the US because his siblings and mother were still back in the US as enslaved hostages too. He is the one who made macaroni and cheese famous in the US and Thomas Jefferson received all the credit. James Hemings killed himself at 36 years old. But yeah, macaroni and cheese existed in the 18th century.

I remember about 3 or 4 years ago seeing your il timpano vid and thought: "I like this dude, I'm gonna see what he puts out" then 2 years ago when I was kicked out of my house and sent to another country to at least spend time with family if I was gonna be homeless. Spent the last of my money on that plane ticket, and on that flight I had downloaded a bunch of videos, including yours. When I finally got to my destination and I was finally with my abuela, I showed her the beef wellington video and she looked at me and said that we should do it. And right there was the moment you turned me from a vagrant addict into an aspiring chef. Once I got back home I immediately signed up for uni. Now I'm currently enrolled in Culinary arts and business admin as a minor. And it was all because of that beef wellington. You and my abuela are the reason why I cook

I'm pretty sure that she's more than her colour. She's an expert because of her skills and personality, not her race.

[@TishyRose]

@@yukononun well yeah obviously she is, I don’t think they were trying to come off like they only saw her for her colour. But you can’t really ignore the reason she was mistreated in BA was likely due to her colour, since she is inarguably incredibly talented at her craft and deserves recognition. I think maybe the commenter was trying to acknowledge all of that, and sort of celebrate something that isn’t seen in western media as often as it should be, which is a brown woman actually being given the chance to show how skilled and talented and wonderful she is without it being like a “token” or something. She’s the main focus of this show, it’s all about what she can do, whereas on BA she was often swept to the sidelines and kind of ignored. Now she’s able to shine, and it must be nice for other brown women to see her succeeding, so I don’t see how it’s wrong to call attention to that since it is a lovely thing. Yes, everybody is more than just their race, but it’s still a big part of most people’s identity, and it undeniably can mean people aren’t treated as fairly as they should be just because of their colour. So it’s nice to be able to see Sohla, a brown woman who has been treated unfairly before, getting the chance to shine. But like I’m a white girl from Scotland so I’m just guessing, so please anybody who has more authority than me to speak on this chime in so there will actually be a meaningful perspective instead of my outsiders opinion hahaha

I’m happy to see more of Solah’s personality with this production staff. Solah has a shining personality, it was a great pitch to center a show around her!

[@lordlemmingman]

She did some videos with the New York Times Cooking channel but it lacked any heart, the direction did not take advantage of her personality nearly as much as this video.

"People Just ate all the cheese they want and then they died." History brought to you by Sohla.

[@JohnSmith-gf6jt]

Also, I would actually love to see some portion of the research that Sohla might do, and/or more of her thought process.

[@jostewart3192]

Yes!

[@CharleneBorg6]

I second this!

[@shannonmackain3634]

Same! I was thinking she was gonna do a bunch of internet research on what was around in the 1800s and what she'd be able to use. But then she said she was gonna read some books and I got even more curious about her methodology. Like, was it a figure of speech or does she really have books on 18th century cooking just at the ready??

[@kissconsider]

3:18 the absurdity of Sohla starting a fire by banging two rocks together over some twigs while an apple watch is on her arm perfectly encapsulates 2020

[@thehorseformerlywithoutana2522]

That was adorable. In her defense she was almost there. Just had to swap out one of the flint rocks for a piece of metal. Oh and line the pit to prevent those pesky explosions.

[@Clever_Motel]

Sohla: Extensive knowledge and experience in the culinary arts Also Sohla: "It's a lot easier when you try to make fire, with fire"

[@kaycem]

i love when sohla is just like "hm, ok - sounds fun!" 😂 no fear, she's perfect.

[@randomtology]

This show has the energy of someone doing all their research for their history presentation the night before on google, and then just winging the rest. I love it so much.

I'm so glad that Sohla found a new and supportive community, I certainly look forward to her continued success here.

[@ratk0zm0z]

Wth is “make it sad” on the wheel xD

[@Dr_Monitor]

Might just entail Sohla dressing like a goth, not smiling or laughing at anything, being super pessimistic, and even if it turns out great, she ends the episode with "I don't care, everything sucks/I'm dead inside".

[@TheRoachkiller]

Gives me a massive throwback to the bubble bass burger from binging where make it cry was just adding onions. Maybe? I don't know

[@TheSpaceboy33]

I thought the same thing!

[@Andre_2099]

I didn’t know this channel. Saw Sohla, they gave her a show: subscribed in seconds.

[@noenergybunny]

I love this! I wouldn't mind a slightly longer format to allow Sohla to walk us through what she is doing a bit more. Your usual videos have a perfect balance of entertainment and education that I think would fit so nicely in the new series! Can't wait to catch the next episode.

[@joechan9126]

BA Fans, Pre Blow-Up: I’d love a series that lets Sohla use all that weird creativity she’s clearly exploding with and do some really off the wall stuff. BA: or, hear me out, we don’t and also act like she isn’t one of the most valuable and creative people we’re fortunate enough to work with Babish: well, if you don’t want that gold mine, I think I know where I’ll start digging... Honestly so glad that my dream series with my favorite chefs are coming together in a way that isn’t as douchey and exploitative. Love this and love y’all.

[@sal0qwerty]

dosnt take much depending how you mix it concrete is kind of a sponge

[@guacamolejones6168]

When concrete is heated, water inside the concrete evaporates and cannot exit, thus making the concrete explode, this is commonly known as spalling.

[@twospooky]

Was the firepit made with the wrong kind of bricks or something then?

[@BigBoss99599]

TwoSpooky it was probably just too much water in the concrete

[@EjvindGEMDark]

@@twospooky A fire after any sort of rain runs the risk. It's why if you make a fire in the wild, you never want to use rocks from a riverbed, as they have a tendency to explode.

This is what sohla deserves and I’m here for it. She was so under appreciated on the other channel. It was sickening to find out she was getting under payed. I am kinda young so it was really devastating for some reason when I find out but truthfully it happens a lot of places. Just hidden in plain sight.
