Japanese Fruit Sandwich from Animal Crossing: New Horizons | Arcade with Alvin

[@SmolPotato8]

Please do more animal crossing foods! Like the grilled seabass or the pumpkin soup

[@jaded_gerManic]

SECONDED on the pumpkin soup! 🤞

[@decaffeinatedhearts1872]

the pumpkin soup is the BEST IDEA!! i need this to be made

[@BrittanytheVampireSlayer]

Yes please!

[@DarkRainb0wKnight]

It's at least a C+

[@LapisPZ]

Ohh on that topic I’d love to see them make the pumpkin soup in skyward sword! Could lead to a fun presentation in the bottle, or maybe even the giant tub of pumpkin soup from later in the game!

[@nwmusic4ever]

At first a fruit sandwich sounds weird but then again it´s not too different from a simple sponge cake with berries and whipped cream 😄

[@carolinavenger]

Yeah just sounds like a strawberry shortcake in a handheld form

[@amtra1778]

especially with american white bread; that stuff is sooooo sweet

[@boardcertifiable]

Yeah, i made some, and that was my thoughts on it. They're great to make for potluck desserts since they're easy to transport and quick to divide up. Save the cut bread scraps for making ladyfingers for tiramisu.

[@cupuacu4life13]

As a brazillian this is just normal for me I wonder if it is just one of the things from brazil that everybody thinks its from japan (like the capybara, tapioca, bossa nova, samba jazz, the walkman and thiago kamiya), or if its just a coincidence, or even who knows maybe the other way around. But i just ate a banana and cream sandwich for breakfast, bcz i'm a monkey, of course.

[@Tamaki742]

​@@cupuacu4life13... But nobody thinks all of those are from Japan, though? If anything, people just know Brazillian culture is very popular in Japan, not that they originated in Japan. As to why that is, it's really because a lot of Brazillians live in Japan.

[@-PadMo-]

For a slightly worse but also a lot easier version, to scratch that itch super quick: Super-soft toast (crusts cut), and a packet of readymade cream-stiffener (it's a powder in the baking aisle) works too :) I also like to use a packet of vanilla-sugar instead of regular sugar!

[@caffeinatedpossum]

Thank you for the Poor Mans edition! I don't own a stand mixer so it would be a NIGHTMARE to mix all that dough by hand.

[@VultureXV]

IIRC a lot of whipped cream stabilizer is basically just a form of starch, like tapioca (casava) starch or corn starch.

[@senscape6891]

Yeah guys let’s all eat cream stiffener

[@-PadMo-]

@@senscape6891 naturally, the cream stiffener is meant to go inside the cream, before whipping it up. It's meant as an easier replacement for the stiffening method used in the video.

[@anhnhvn]

As for me I used Greek yogurt (strained so it's less watery) in place of the cream.

[@littlekitsune1]

I remember trying these with my mom and we tried both whipped cream and mascarpone cheese. Both were delicious.

[@HopefulDarkness]

ayeeee that’s what the cream layer of tiramisu is made of! Something else that’s cheaper would be cream cheese and whipped cream for a tiramisu/fruit sandwich cream layer. It tastes similar to mascarpone and whipped cream but very slightly more sour than mascarpone. I can’t taste the difference but some people might

[@LoveSickPuppy91]

You can also use vanilla pudding mix too heavy mixing cream to stiffen up the whip cream if you stay kosher I use it for cakes all the time

[@Jaechan13]

My only (joking) complaint is that the fruits used in your sandwiches aren't the ones used in ACNH! (except oranges) - A great addition to the video games foods, regardless of your fruit taking liberties!

[@leela16245]

there are strawberries in the ACNH one too, there's just no strawberries in the game so it's not in the recipe, but you can see them in the actual sandwich

[@AyameFyuu]

I make like a variant of these except instead of whip cream I use vanilla flavored cream cheese and it is delicious. Can confirm letting it sit over night makes them all the better. 😋

[@cjjackson169]

it would have been fun if you used the fruit listed on the game's recipe card! I would have loved to see a variation with peaches and pears

[@djgrizzly9353]

Can you make the superb stew from Zelda: Twilight Princess? I think it would be an interesting dish because it includes unique things like fish, pumpkin, and goat cheese

[@L-guy]

That's a great idea-- I remember that item in the game always made me hungry.

[@twilightraven1232]

PLEASE! IVE ASKED THIS IN MULTIPLE VIDEOS I WANNA SEE IF IT WORKS 😂

[@itscloudstrife]

yeaaahhh

[@ClownNaround]

@@twilightraven1232its a taste that requires a… mature pallet

Soooo... a fruit sandwich made by a professional is far too beautiful to actually eat?! ✨️🍓✨️🍞✨️😭

[@adrieleje851]

yes, I remember seeing the designs they would make with the fruit, like tangerine flowers with grape leaves and kiwi stems all in single sandwiches :')

[@le0n447]

@@adrieleje851gross why not the actual fruit itself, not the stems/leaves

[@ivytheivysaur9057]

@@le0n447 The fruit is making a flower design. They aren't actually making a sandwich with fruit stems and leaves

[@raevir]

“Punch the dough like it’s a baby… huh” 😅

[@haleydavila6471]

I always wanted to try these cute lil sandwiches

[@TulipTigerStudio]

A series dedicated to something like animal crossing or dungeon meshi would be really cool to see! Nothing crazy maybe 3-4 videos but seeing consistency in one series would be neat. Thank you so much for doing this one I'm going to try it immediately :)

[@kurathchibicrystalkitty5146]

Oh, yes! These look delicious! Please do more Animal Crossing food, maybe the different fruit jellos?

[@anasevi9456]

has new Horizons become any better over the last 3 years? I bought it on launch, but could only stand to play it for a week or so because compared to prior games; the village was a complete ghost town and the villagers really had nothing to say. Hope nintendo fleshed it out.

[@Your-Least-Favorite-Stranger]

@@anasevi9456 It's still pretty ghosty. You play to pay off your loan but the villagers are still kinda like background flavor and the biggest draws are finishing museum collections and building up the town. After that: the village is kinda just there. Terraforming the island is an exhaustive nightmare; I want to design my island but I legit hate terraforming and the camera angle doesnt give me a comprehensive idea of how the land im working will look at the end - so its fun but disappointing in that area.

[@SilvanianPirateKing]

I know this released moments ago, but I was just yesterday talking to my wife about wanting to learn how to make these. How delightfully weird!

[@KairuHakubi]

This kind of thing totally fits the japanese palate. they love soft, squishy bread, and they love mildly sweet things.

[@OriginalElysian]

A whole country full of people with the palate of five-year-olds.

[@cefrinaldi8060]

Yes! I once ate japanese bread once and its so fluffy. The bread used on their fruit sandwich taste like cake! Its so delicious and vastly differ than regular bread

[@somefreshbread]

Pro-tip: If you want a cleaner sando, cut the crusts AFTER you've assembled.

[@atsukorichards1675]

Yes, that's the usual way to do.

[@KnightsofGaming2016]

I never thought I would be into Animal Crossing until I tried out New Horizons and I love it! Hope to see more ACNH foods on the channel.

[@JakobMcC]

Alvin is doing so awesome, love to see him adding his mix to things!

[@CHLOCHLOLP]

imo the beauty of any sandwich is the crossection. I make sandwiches at my job and cutting them open to look at the middle is so satisfying every time lol

[@UtterlyShagged]

"Punch it down like a baby" Oceiros from Dark Souls 3, is that you?

[@emptyP687]

"punch it down like a baby... uhhhh"???

[@Paul.Str337]

I watched this with my daughter and we both did a spit-take at this line. Came out of nowhere but was so funny.

[@Brazuken]

Fruits sandos were one of my favorite things to get in the morning next to egg salad sandwiches from 7-11 in japan.

[@ElephantseatShorts]

711 egg salad sammies got me hooked on them. I also miss those chocolate covered almonds 😭💖 (Edit: also miss pre-made tuna riceballs so bad)

[@shelbybayer200]

Fruit Sandwich is something I'd actually want to try in the real world they look amazing

Aji Fish Fry! (fried butterflied horse mackerel)

[@JustAndrew1]

I always get disapointed when i click on a Babish video and its actually an Alvin video

[@annalepper457]

Stardew Valley has a cookbook coming out! We need another Arcade with Alvin episode!

[@KnightSlasher]

Nothing like some healthy sandwiches to eat, it is healthy and fun

[@Tanithst]

I've seen this done with chiffon cake for the sandwich pieces. Both look so appetizing!

[@joey_btw4718]

Alvin is easily the best addition to the Babish channel. I do miss his make it big series from when he was with Tasty, but I love his arcade and anime series' better.

[@shamsa971]

I recently came back from Japan and the fruit sandwiches there had creme patisserie/thin custard alongside the whipped cream

[@shevanz1589]

If you love cheesecake, do this but also add a little cream cheese to the cream mixture as well. 👌👌

[@jack9316]

Mikey Chen(strickly dumpling) is vibrating in his seat if he watches this the Japanese sandwiches are some of his favorite things in Japan.

[@theendoftheworld9921]

My mom made these for me once or twice when I was a kid and it was a great memory

[@jjg92114]

I kinda want to see Alvin make the Seafood Pizza next.

[@Firethorne]

With the new Cyberpunk out, now would be the perfect time for Judy's pizza options for the next Arcade with Alvin!

[@megakodex4949]

I'd love to see cult of the lamb covered on this channel, the dishes may not be super specific but I would love to see the twists put on them.

[@Timmah200]

That stand mixer is really excited to see us.

[@pierreaugustevinluan]

Alvin Zhou is creating mixed fruit sandwiches with Japanese milk bread, inspired by Animal Crossing: New Horizons. Love It!!!!!❤

[@nicholasroot3729]

Please make the 711 egg sandwich. The GOAT of sandwiches.

[@galacticmechanic1]

It would be fun to add just a little fruit puree to the cream to both colour and flavour it a bit.

Cool, love ACNH thanks for the sandwichs

[@Tinytox]

Make milkbread base: 1/2 cup flower 1/2 cup milk (add a splash over) Slowly add flower to milk on medium heat until it it turns into ball. 6 cups flower 2 1/4 teaspoon yeast 1/4 cup sugar 2 1/2 teaspoon salt Mix dry, then rip up chunks of milkbread base and add to the dry mix. Mix. Add while mixing: 1/2 cup heavy cream 1.6 cups whole milk. 1/4 cup honey Mix until the dough is stick, shiny, and smooth. Should have basically no lumps. Pour dough into oiled bowl and cover to let standing proof for an hour, it should roughly double in size. Flip dough onto work surface, flatten by hand and cut into fourths. Roll each chunk of dough up into a dough ball, wrapping the sides under the bottom. Butter your Milkbread pan on all of the inside sides, and place the dough balls in. Proof again for about an hour. The dough should fill about 80% of the pan. Bake at 350 for an hour. Once done, slice all the bread, then slice the crusts off of them. Whipped cream: Make gelatin mix in small side bowl: 1/4 cup cold water Sprinkle 4 teaspoons gelatin on top of it After a few minutes the water should be fully absorbed, microwave 10 seconds to fully constitute the gelatin. Stir to combine. Let cool for a little bit. 3 cups heavy whipping cream in mixer 3 tbsp sugar Mix until soft peaks, then slowly add gelatin, mix until perfect peaks/consistency. Assemble sandwiches.

This kinda makes me wanna see more animal crossing foods be brought to life, like the curries (which I make about 500 of every time I harvest my crops because they sell for a lot 😂)

I know it's a bit morbid, but a fun few meals to make would be the 5 meals from Rusty Lake: Hotel.

Who has never had a pineapple sandwich? Light bread, mayonnaise, pineapple rings. Easy

[@ImAlsoMerobiba]

Never heard of one 🤔

[@skyjack1]

Mayo? I would expect cottage or cream cheese but sure.

[@thecunninlynguist]

peanut cheese bar from earthbound....or if you're really adventurous, magic cake from earthbound

[@miya705]

These are way bigger than I thought they would be. I always assumed the fruits were cut in half and there was a lot less cream used, and it would overall just be smaller, but I guess the cross sections would be different with half fruits.

[@animaljustice7774]

Scrumptious sandwiches! I have had these and made it for first time

[@carlotta4th]

Tried it--delicious (even with angel cake instead of the milk bread) but I highly suggest a combo of oranges and pineapples. That was freaking AMAZING compared to the other fruits I tried!

Basically a Strawberry shortcake, grape shortcake,Orange/Tangderine shortcake Kaza? Corp owns the 7-11s in Hawaii so depending on if it sells a 7-11 in Hawaii may or may not have fruit Sandwiches One near me only have Japanese Pancakes(without cabage) folded like a taco with whip cream and fruit but no fruit sandwiches Um, the bread tasted more like Brioche then milk bread the last time I did have a fruit sandwich

[@walk3rk1ng35]

Babish should make cheese milk from Home Improvement, "Bye, Bye Birdie."

[@HayTatsuko]

The Animal Crossing character visibly cooking that mixed-fruit sandwich is almost as funny to me as a FFXIV character whipping up a batch of lemonade in a sizzling-hot frying pan -- but I think of such sandwiches as just being made with already-baked bread, not the way you went with it in this video! Let's give XIV proper props, though: Its Culinarian system also encouraged me to make shakshouka in real life, and that is a thing (with modifications -- namely, hard-cooking the eggs) I don't regret at all.
