Binging with Babish: Lunches from The Breakfast Club

[@LeoFan93]

So fun fact about Claire's sushi: According to Molly Ringwald, the script had originally called for Claire to have pasta salad for lunch. It was Ally Sheedy who came up with the idea of her having sushi because it better fit her status as an upper class rich girl, because sushi was more of a luxury foodstuff back in the mid-80's.

[@tobiasreinhold7642]

@@nappa0582 I take it you don't have a rice cooker and thus don't realise the amazing end result it delivers with perfect consistency? It's not about how easy or hard it is to make rice, it's about the rice being way better from a rice cooker than in almost any other method available. Trust me, if you enjoy rice, just buy a cheap [like 20 bucks or so] rice cooker and test it out. Compared to regularly boiling your rice, the result is fluffier, you have more individual grains, they don't clump and it's a more even result. You also don't need to pay precise attention to when it's done for the perfect result, which gives you more time to get extravagant with the other parts of your meal. Lastly, with most other methods, you have a window of about 1-2 minutes in which your rice becomes perfect, with anything longer or shorter reducing the quality by a lot. With a rice cooker, the rice stays in perfect consistency for anywhere between 10-30 minutes after the cooking process is done. It slowly deteriorates in quality after that point, but is still really nice for up to 2 hours. (You can even leave it in the rice cooker overnight and make fried rice with the leftovers.) Seriously, if you haven't experienced the greatness of a rice cooker, go and get one. I was a skeptic myself for years and it was among the best small investments (19,90 €) I've made.

[@Jay-rd8sq]

As someone with a peanut allergy, my girlfriend once asked me to make her a pbj because she had to run to class.

She said it was the single saddest looking pbj she'd ever seen but she ate it anyway because she loved me.

[@Artofficial1986]

Cool story

[@KairuHakubi]

I guess as long as the bread was very soft and the jelly was also in a very thin layer, that could work in an 'english cucumber sandwich' kinda way. just not as a meal, where the peanut butter is basically standing in for meat with the jelly standing in for tomatoes and lettuce and stuff.

other tip for slicing (as a Korean American who makes gimbap, ymmv with sushi): let the roll sit at least a minute or two before slicing. the moisture from the rice will seep into the seaweed a little, adhering them together and reducing the chances of everything falling apart when you go to slice!

"I've never made sushi before" *screams in Brock's jelly donuts*

[@AlRoderick]

Onigiri is not sushi.

A delicious banquet to make before Thanksgiving is all the different types of curry from Pokemon Sword and Shield video game

[@ChadGatling]

Oooo, just realized I'd love to see you tackle gourmet pizza lunchables

[@yarnjplays2028]

CAN'T BELIEVE YOU'RE FINALLY DOING SOMETHING FROM ONE OF MY FAVE MOVIES OF ALL TIME!!! EEEEEEEEEKKKKKKK!

[@magic7ball460]

Pb&j, especially when packed for lunch, should be prepared with peanut butter on both slices of bread and jelly in the middle. This prevents the jelly from soaking into the bread after several hours in a lunch box.

[@Bluetartinator8]

Next week please make Jake's Freedom Feast from Brooklyn Nine-Nine before Thanksgiving

[@captainm7722]

I have waited patiently for this episode since the beginning of this channel. Thank you Andy for finally covering one of my all-time favorite movies!

[@alyssamae4]

I feel like the discarded mortadella needed to be thrown on a statue's face for accuracy. Or a person if you have no statue. 🤣😂

[@zimmejoc]

I don't think that is in Kendall's job description :)

[@strivingformindfulness2356]

And instead of mortadella, use pimento loaf, which is what it looked like when it landed on the statue.

[@williammclaughlin1634]

I would have just put the other stuff over the Mortadella, for gross out factor, this is High School after all. :)

[@vigilantcosmicpenguin8721]

[@sammyrick1078]

Man. This one went back to the roots of the show. Love it!

[@BugsyFoga]

That scene was always a favorite of mine, anyone else?

[@ruthbromberg9068]

I miss Matt's cookies soooo much. They were a staple in my Chicago home growing up!!

[@DJ-fn3jm]

The meat in Allison's sandwich was NOT mortadella. It was Olive Loaf.

[@wendybowman5871]

And now I need to rewatch again!

[@MetFreak42]

Most the time I felt even more out of place in my HS, because I had the aesthetic of Bender, with the Parents/home life of Brian. And no lunch in Saturday morning detension.

[@Shoobadawoop]

I say “PB&J with the crust cut off” every time I make PB&J lol

[@roberthoyt7921]

Capn' Crunch French Toast would be what I could make for breakfast anytime.

[@lloydwoodward9053]

Blue Moon Cafe in Baltimore serves that. They were on DDD with Guy.

[@roberthoyt7921]

@@lloydwoodward9053 If I ever go to Baltimore (never know when), I would consider going there when I have time.

[@KP-ev8by]

Golden Harvest in Lansing sometimes makes it too

[@vigilantcosmicpenguin8721]

So apparently I have to make it my goal to go to either Baltimore or Lansing.

[@jarjarbinks4368]

Learned the way they make PBnJ’s at Disney is they do a layer of peanut butter on both prices of bread and then the jelly on one of the slices. Supposedly it keeps jelly from leaking out

[@michael_scar]

We need a Big Poppa T-bone steak, cheese eggs, Welch's Grape

[@BrainMax_]

Maybe on the week of Thanksgiving, you make all the foods that appeared in Amphibia episode, "Reunion" on Tuesday

[@ilznidiotic]

Oh, man. I have been waiting for this since year one of the show! Does not disappoint.

[@MetaMarcy21]

I always thought Allison’s sandwich contained olive loaf

[@angelaprettybagel]

Every line from this movie is the best line.

[@simakingyt]

When he said “Save 50% or more” I instantly thought “on car insurance”

[@KP-ev8by]

Theres a breakfast restaurant in Lansing, MI called the Golden Harvest that actually serves capn crunch enscrusted french toast sometimes. That restaurant is amazing. Best breakfast I've EVER had.

Babish: “In a rice cooker” Uncle Roger: Fuiyohh!

[@jessicaconner1242]

Or better yet have uncle roger do a babby review

[@justyouraveragetrashbag5718]

Theres's a specific side of the sushi you want that sticks to the rice, which is the mour rough side rather than the smooth side. Hope this helps!

[@waheedabdullah6371]

What if you made the feast from Harry Potter and the Philosopher Stone on the week of Thanksgiving: Lamb chops, chicken wings, french fries, etc.

[@amoth7757]

Every show needs a breakfast club episode, binging with babish is no exception!

[@ivycarnivora]

I can quote this entire movie and I’m proud of that

[@radicaledward3783]

I feel like Allison would appreciate your ingenuity, Andrew.

[@TheCupcake40]

I love my “sushi gun” we use it all the time! It makes sushi so easy
