First time!! Swedish couple cook and try Vermont Apple Pie! With cheese??

[@llusk6375]

I don't care if you use your hands. It's not like we are eating it. 😆 Pies are hard Recky...you did good. 😊

[@judyhorstmann6332]

Ignore the people who say you're being bossy, Carol. You're working on your Not a Cooking/ Baking Show together. We enjoy it!

[@audreyslivinglife]

Recky, you need to give yourself some grace. You are not expected to do it perfectly on the first try. You did great! I love cheddar cheese with apples.

[@karenwhaley8635]

I prefer Vanilla ice cream on mine ❤

[@kathybouziane5269]

​@@karenwhaley8635 Cheddar cheese AND either vanilla or cinnamon ice cream both ! With a cup of hot coffee 🥧☕❤

[@leftiesoutnumbered]

Rolling pie crust for the first time is like playing a video game for the first time on ultra hard mode. Great job.

[@helensarkisian7491]

Oh Recky! You have no idea how many of us feel your frustration with rolling out the pie dough. I never get it to the way I want it. You are not alone!!

[@JudyMaupin]

In my mother's 1950 Betty Crocker cookbook it says " apple pie without cheese is like a hug without a squeeze " lol!

[@beckyrinaldi6622]

Recky you did amazing! Pie crust is NOT easy to roll out. You should be proud.

[@Cookie-K]

Carol.....your laugh is absolutely contagious! You laughing at Recky had me laughing at Recky! 😂 I love these Not A Cooking Shows....you guys did a great job!

[@joannsosh7009]

I love you guys! You didn't quit, Never quit!

[@manxkin]

I’ve never understood the cheddar cheese with apple pie thing. I’ll take a scoop of vanilla ice cream with my apple pie any day.

[@msj2677]

I’m not a fan of cheddar cheese on apple pie, but I do like fresh apple slices and grapes with cheese.

[@mcraiderking5690]

It’s supposed to be a sweet and savory thing, but I’m on your side. Give me the ice cream.

[@hippiemama52]

Cheddar cheese and apple pie are one of the few sweet and savory combinations I do like. But I wouldn't say no to vanilla ice cream either. 🙂

[@Rose-z4h6k]

Back on the farm, my grandmother would sometimes serve leftover apple pie with a slice of cheddar for breakfast. The smell of apple pie makes me think of lunch baskets/boxes for church tent meetings and taking the Greyhound to Omaha.

[@malloryparent8555]

Recky! You did a fantastic job!! That pie looks excellent!

[@genamayhew1961]

Carol giving instructions isn't being bossy it's just you're having to teach him how to do something from a far while directing & being the camera operator & he's doing his best just like you are so nobody is saying you're bossy. Great job for both of you & most of us are married or like me was married for 21years & always having flash backs 😂🍎🍏🧈🥧🧀😮🍦😍💜🙏

[@chanmi1957]

You did great, Recky! It's not easy when learning a new recipe. Especially making a pie from scratch. It's a learning experience, for sure. Especially recording it and posting it to the world. And Carol you are not bossy. You are just trying to teach Recky. And in a new language! You both did great. The pie looked yummy. Thanks for the video! 😊✌🍎

[@barbarabradley665]

You did a great job.

HELLO From West Virginia Appalachia I make a lot of Apple Pies 🥧 Am thinking Carol will be too , with those beautiful apple trees right outside. .❤

[@taunadavis4972]

Also from West Virginia, also an apple pie baker. Try fried apple pies!

[@elisebarthalow6075]

I'm just west of you all in Ohio,but still considered Appalachia. It took determination to keep trying to improve my baking skills and I'm really impressed with Recky and Carol. Doing it on camera to boot! Nothing like a good home made pie and I'm getting ready to make a pumpkin pie tonight.

[@janesmith146]

Make Loco Moco! Its very popular in Hawaii and super easy to make. You need only 4 or 5 basic ingredients: ground beef, rice, Brown gravy and eggs, plus a few simple seasonings. You can add onions and mushrooms if you like but its optional.

[@TracieBuckert]

I grew up eating hot apple pie with cold wedges of Cheddar Cheese. Kind of like Carol's pears and cheese. The cold bite of the Cheddar cleanse your palate. Once the pie is cold we don't eat it with cheese. I grew up in Victoria Texas, most don't eat it with cheese but both my sets of grandparents were German and maybe that is why because it was something they both did!!!! Love yall!!!!

[@steedlee3997]

I am also from WV and my father ate it with cheese. Also, my neighbor growing up never had children and she always made this pie with shamrock cut outs when my dad came home from the hospital, . He was disabled when I was 10 yrs old. .

[@melynda399]

i am so very happy you liked that. while i love apple pie....i remember as was growng up, mom and grandmother would put cheese on their apple pie...i would enjoy laughing and poking fun at them for doing that...but still to this day (im 56) have NEVER had the guts to try it for myself. Way to go Ya'll!!!!!! it was fun to watch, and brought back such fun memories.

[@psykoholikslag]

It's ALL about the sweet,savory loop of flavor!!

[@Jude_196]

YOU DID A GREAT JOB, RECKY!! I'm SURE it's DELICIOUS!! Don't get discouraged!! We ALL have problems with crust!!

[@kathybouziane5269]

I've given up making pie crust. I think I overwork it and it always comes out tough. So I buy the crust and do a crumb topping 😊

[@carolsemonco5431]

Hi from another Carol! Great job Recky!!!! Nothing better than warm apple pie and having your home smell so good from it baking! My dad would eat it served in a bowl and heated in the microwave with milk poured over it and a little sugar over it, so good and comforting!

[@cathiemonroe3115]

Ricky, the pie looks marvelous! Good job U2 the videos are wonderful.

[@dgray2228]

I had a neighbor years ago who was Hawaiian and she made "Loco Moco". Rice topped with a hamburger patty with brown gravy poured over and then a fried egg on top.

[@angb6561]

That sounds simple enough that Recky will like it!

[@shawnmurphy8497]

Hawaiian pulled pork (kalua pig) 6lb pork butt 1 1/2 tbs Hawaiian sea salt (order online no substitute) 1 tbs liquid smoke. Pierce pork all over rub in salt and smoke. Place in slow cooker, cover, and cook for 16 to 20 hours on low. Pull out meat shred and drizzle juices over meat. Best served on white rice

[@lbvolkman]

Yum!! 😋

[@Rose-z4h6k]

Kalua pig, lau lau, luau, lomi salmon, chicken katsu, poke, Spam musubi... Dang now I want a plate lunch.

[@Rose-z4h6k]

By the way, Recky and Carol this dish would traditionally have been cooked in an imu. An imu is a pit oven. A hole is dug, filed with wood, topped with special stones; then the wood is ignited and is allowed to burn down to coals. The coals and hot stones are spread out to line the pit and covered with banana and li leaves. The pig or other meat is placed in the pit and covered with li and banana leaves. Then the whole thing is covered with earth. The pig cooks for many hours. Once cooked, the meat is shredded. The whole family gathers to feast on the pork, poi, luau, and other treats. The slow cooker allows this dish to be scaled down and produced without knowing how to build and use an imu.

[@spacehonky6315]

Don't preach the sins of liquid smoke. Recky actually owns a smoker now!😄. Is there any other Hawaiian dish that isn't just like every other bbq'd pig? Don't say SPAM or that weird purple-gray poi sludge yall eat either😑. Tropical fruit salad? Baked or fried fishes? Coconut...something?

[@alskjflah]

For Hawaii, Loco Moco. It’s a hamburger patty on rice with gravy and a fried egg.

[@cmitchell7347]

Congrats on the beautiful and scrumptious pie! Your house must smell amazing. 😊

[@suegraber3932]

You did a great job Recky!

[@donadavis1178]

[@theeggandi6391]

You guys would die laughing at the number of pie crusts I've had to throw away. When I was very young we took some of mom's failed crust to the unfinished basement and threw it up against the wall. She was so humiliated but she had a great sense of humor.😂

[@kimberlygabaldon3260]

Granny Smith apples are perfect for making pies.

[@audrey7353]

The key to pie crust is work it as little as possible…the more you work it the tougher the finished/baked crust will be😊

[@elisebarthalow6075]

Just a suggestion that was taught to me by my grandmother. Always read the recipe and read it again before you start to make your recipe.Sometimes things go in a specific order. And your pie crust may be too warm. It does better chilled. I love your videos and recky you're tackling things that take skill and you're doing it. Carol you make me laugh,not at you,but with you 😅

[@luciafeola3069]

Great job!

[@detroitnatural9392]

Recky, slow down, take a breath, *relax*. No one is judging you (well, maybe the cats) 😁

[@ChitwoodMitwood]

I have learned to eat before watching these videos.

[@lbvolkman]

Good idea!! 😊

[@Nanasays0731]

I’m 71 and I have never made a pie crust from scratch. Well done Recky!

[@michellerasey7327]

I love the raw emotions while rolling my that crust. We all have those moments. Just don't give up. It doesn't matter if its perfect. Carol you do the same as I while letting someone else have control of something that you normally do. I micro manage too. makes me giggle.

[@franciet99]

Great pie Recky!!! The best pie I ever made was when I was 12 years old. I’m not saying that to belittle but instead to say that as a child, I had no pressure nor preconceived ideas about how difficult pies can be. My mother had a slice and was amazed. She wanted to know how I made such a great pie crust. That was the only time I made a great pie. The rest of my 48 years have been decent pies. 💙💙💙

[@Julie-fr]

Good job Recky! That looks delicious. I've never been brave enough to make a pie crust. I always buy premade crust when I make pie. If you make this pie again it will be easier next time. You'll have plenty of apples from your tree to get a lot of practice.

[@MelissaNENY]

Bravo Recky and Carol, you’ve made your first VT Apple Pie. It’s all about the experience and trying something new. Perfect or not, you like it or not, but you did it. Thanks for sharing your experiences and journey through life. ❤

[@abee1248]

I like eating an apple and piece of cheddar at same time

[@LadySythe]

Recky you did good hon. You are learning, and with it comes frustration

[@connniet3049]

Pie crust is an art 🥧 and I will never create a true masterpiece😂. I was taught the same trick as Carol, put ball of dough between 2 pieces of parchment, press down(I like to use a small cutting board for this), flip over, then roll outward from the middle, pull all the way back toward self ,turn crust after each pass until you get the thickness you want. Make 4 small slits near the center or put in a pie bird for venting once on pie. Keep consistent pressure on the rolling pin, that way it's rolling out evenly. If you get splits you can add a drop of water and press dough together to mend. Hope this works for you, if you try. ❤❤

[@briangoss8062]

Seriously other than maybe another slice of cheese (but it is to taste for each person) it ALL - LOOKED AMAZING!!

[@theagingbeginner]

Wisconsin where I live is the "Dairy State" meaning we produce mega products of dairy. In the old days, it was illegal to sell apple pie without a slice of cheese melted on top of it. I'm glad you tried it, it's great! The Wisconsin state dish is: Deep Fried Cheese Curds!

[@polodog1483]

😂 Loved this video! Was imagining myself trying to instruct my husband about rolling pie dough! I’m sure it would have gone badly at our house…with cursing and likely him storming out. 🤣 You both did a great job! Have never made this type of recipe. We always coat the apples with flour, sugar, salt & spices. Might have to try the syrup way now.

[@jsb3845]

I finally watched your video. I always get hungry watching for some reason. I do need to gain a little. Good looking pie. I used to bake. I can't eat it all.

[@haynnanigurl]

I'm originally from Hawaii and one dish I suggest trying is LauLau, which consists of pork wrapped in taro leaves. However, getting taro leaves can be tough, and the preparation process may be time-consuming. A good alternative is the well-known Loco Moco, a popular plate lunch option in Hawaii. It features a base of steaming rice, a homemade hamburger patty, eggs (cooked to your liking), all covered in savory brown gravy and topped with caramelized onions if desired. And if you feel like doing a popular dessert, some options are butter mochi, pumpkin crunch or chocolate haupia pie(haupia is a coconut based dessert).

[@alskjflah]

Since spoon sizes are easy to confuse if you’re rushing some recipes use a little trick to help us recognize them. The abbreviation for tablespoon is often capitalized “Tbsp” but teaspoon “tsp” is not.

[@reginasipes4248]

Im not a pie dough person. I have hot hands. If the pie dough is warm when you roll it out, it will be difficult to work with. Keep the dough chilled until just before you roll it out.

[@jonathanwilliamson2948]

You guys are great! Looks good!

[@lindajarvis6120]

When I reheat cold apple pie in the microwave I put the ice cream on top and reheat for about 30 seconds. Ice cream doesn't melt in microwave the heated pie will melt it just a little.

[@Alan-xv2bs]

[@maryjotesauro9295]

[@decolonizeEverywhere]

Cinnamon ice cream exclamation point that sounds yummy, I've never seen it anywhere

Moco Loco would probably be the easiest to emulate. Hamburger with gravy over rice, with a fried egg.

Grew up in upper Midwest…Scandinavian heritage. Never melted the cheese over the pie. Just slices of it cold. Best way to have apple pie !!!

[@randykillman6475]

great job. crust is tricky to learn Hawaii's official state food is the coconut muffin. However, Hawaii has many popular dishes, including saimin, poi, musubi, and huli hulie chicken and spam

[@andrealee33]

You guys should try to make a pineapple upside down cake. You lay pineapple slices and maraschino cherries down on the bottom of a well greased 13/9 pan with brown sugar then pour cake batter over that . Bake and then you flip it upside down on a plate. It is so good warm with fresh whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream

[@lindadeters8685]

I thought cheddar cheese on apple pie was crazy, until I tried it. It’s that crazy sweet-savory thing.

[@mokumboi19]

The cheese is mixed into the pie crust dough! And I have never seen sour cream as part of the filling? It's usually part of the crust also!

This is why I don't make pies. I too hate making crust. Recky...you did a good job. I have never seen anyone place the cheese on the pie...they usually take a bite of cheese with a bite of pie. I'm from Massachusetts, Vermont's southern neighbor and I've never had apple pie with maple syrup cooked in it. Sounds yummy!

[@adventuresinmusic2487]

Looking delicious. It's hard to beat warm apple pie. Definitely ice cream. I'm from north Idaho. Not too far from Wenatchee Washington an apple growing capital. In my area I search out wild apples and fruit for jams, etc.
