Ingredients Needed:

[@vi-yn1ss]

Maybe cut Mr. Lincoln a little bit of slack since back then butter was always salted due to the lack of refrigeration?

[@richmondvand147]

it was also WAY saltier

[@kaitlynvigue9656]

Came here to say this!

[@Kmkboyz15]

Crazy he didn't think of this... but i get it.

[@pablovegas743]

I might be wrong, but didn't they wash salted butter right before it was used? At least that's what I heard.

[@vi-yn1ss]

@@pablovegas743 yes, because the butter was brined for storage and the salt levels would have made it pretty much inedible. However, even after washing off the brine, there was still salt in it comparable to today's salted butter or at least enough that adding a pinch of salt to a cake batter wasn't necessary.

[@Archeridon]

Gotta defend my boi Abe Lincoln's favorite cake here, butter back in the day was a lot more salted, so the original recipe probably had the salt to satisfy that top tier rating.

[@AF-wd2gt]

Correct. He should re do the ratings he did him dirty

[@widodoakrom3938]

Agree

[@valkyrieregalia]

Was about to say the same thing, but you beat me to it. I think it's just a chef thing, probably not used to using salted butter. I myself use salted butter all the time so I usually let that account for the salt, so it was something that came to mind for me.

[@johankaewberg8162]

Butter to this day is salted in Sweden. Un-salted, salted, extra salted.

[@brendamoon2660]

Also eggs were much smaller in the past. The egg count in historic recipes needs to be adjusted accordingly

[@Mrx2848]

According to Max Miller from Tasting History, a lot of recipes from antiquity don't include salt in their ingredients list even when it was supposed to be used, so maybe Lincoln's cake did have salt and the person who recorded it assumed it was a given.

[@valcan321]

Butter had a LOT of salt in it back in the day.

[@richiepayne7226]

But at the same time there's a term baking is a science for a reason. Yeah sure if you want to make chloroform anybody who's trying probably already knows the ingredients so they are given but that doesn't mean they don't need to be listed because if you do not list ingredients when making a recipe especially when baking and it requires a very specific amount of everything then it ends up fucked up

[@PixlRainbow]

@@richiepayne7226The point was that even science used to be less disciplined. Alchemists used to write recipes under the assumption that your stirring rod was iron. They just didn't specify because they didn't know it mattered, or they thought that it just wasn't possible for anyone to use anything else. Degrees in scientific fields are called PhDs (Doctor of Philosophy) because they are a holdover from a time where "science" only existed within the fold of philosophy.

[@donutmonk]

​@@richiepayne7226 you'd unfortunately hate old cookbooks, lol. There were assumptions that those reading the recipes had a good understanding of cooking prior (usually specific variations per household) and so many elements of the cooking process were left unspecified. Specific items like salt went unlisted. Cook times weren't specified, measurements were more suggestive than they were specific (a handful, a shake, a good spoonful or hearty spoonful, etc). They were more of a "let's share this idea" kind of thing rather than "the purpose of this recipe is to allow accessibility of this dish to everyone" kind of thing. It also should be noted that, during that time, butter was HEAVILY salted to help with preservation so the recipe was even influenced from the quality of goods that was accessible. A fridge wen a long way in reducing the salt necessary in a diet lol.

[@Somerandom1922]

Butter also needed copious amounts of salt to be preserved more than a couple of days. Prior to refrigeration there was "Butter" and "Fresh butter". Fresh butter tasted much more like modern unsalted butter, but required you to live near cows and be real good at churning (or really rich). Normal "butter" was so salty as to be unpalatable. Like, if you wanted to make something from it that didn't require a fair bit of salt, you'd need to wash the salt out of it.

Elvis sandwich - toast the bread first so that 1. Peanut butter is easier to spread evenly on toasted bread 2. More butter is absorbed by the dry bread 3. The sandwich is stiff enough to eat, peanut butter and mashed banana is wet and gooey, the bread needs "backbone" 13:50

[@shawnruss7196]

I agree with you. But i do one thing different. I heat the peanut butter to make it more liquid. Then I basically whip it and the banana paste together almost like an emulsion. Trust me on this. Try it. You'll never look back

[@shawnruss7196]

Also adding a touch of honey makes it even more amazing

[@omegaentertainment1]

Adding a little honey and marshmallow fluff is the best. We call it a "Fluffernutter".

[@kabob21]

I think Joshua’s bread came out so dry because he toasted the bread too long. A lighter toast would have kept a little more moisture while still having structure.

[@woodenotaku]

About that Lincoln cake, you used unsalted butter when such a thing would not have been commonly available at the time as it wasn't a popular choice before widespread refrigeration. In fact butter of the era would've been very heavily salted and having a look at other recipes (I couldn't find the exact same issue this one appeared in) from Godey's Lady's Books in which this recipe originally appeared in back in the mid-1800's there are no recipes that mention unsalted butter at all. They all refer to simply "butter" which in modern America means unsalted butter and thus it has been copied over as such through a game of broken telephone all over the internet and various cook books, even if it is a case of some mofo simply making it up somewhere along the line that it was supposedly unsalted even though it obviously wasn't.

[@pablovegas743]

That would be correct, but as long as I've heard they washed butter before use to remove salt.

I was a latchkey kid in the 90s and needed to make noms in a pinch before Rocco’s Modern Life started after school. So I made “pizza on toast”. It’s 4 slices of toast on a plate, topped with Hunt’s tomato sauce, a slice of Kraft American cheese and popped in the microwave for 30-45 seconds. It was… adequately deliciously okay. My mouth became a shovel. I’d sometimes go for seconds and on the rare occasion, I’d sprinkle a touch of dried oregano over there sauce. Aaaah, the 90’s.🥰 another favorite was two Tombstone pizzas baked on top of each other at a lower heat for longer. Blasphemous. And totally worth it.

[@johnhogue9402]

Chef here. For my own cooking I always toast the bread a little before toasting with butter in a pan. The reason is this way you get the buttery brunch from the outside, but then you also have the crunch from the inside as well. As long as your bread is thick enough you can keep the center still untrusted and a nice fluffy center surrounded by crunch and butter. I just prefer both sides toasted. Sometimes I'll just toast the bread in the pan, pulling it out and flip it, add the ingredients and the out it back in with new butter. Though some may find that a tad too rich but god damn I love butter... Oh and truffle oil is disgusting... never understood why people like that flavor.. its not to bad on Mac and cheese just depending on the cheese used.

As a fan of your overall cooking I would be happy if you will be making more fermentacion videos. I have a fun topic for you: 1.making polish "pickles"(fermented cucumbers)aka ogórki kiszone/małosolne (the second type is better) The diffrance its just that the time you ferment them. Thank you in advance, all People from Poland and the rest of the world for liking this coment and our king @JoshuaWeissman for reading this.

If that girl made pasta alla vodka without the necessity, it wasn't pasta alla vodka. Alcohol is needed to release or accentuate certain compounds in the tomatoes. Certain ones are released with fat, others with heat and still others with ALCOHOL!

[@blargcoster]

I think a big thing of that "ramen battle" was convenience. I'd absolutely agree with your ratings on a scale of taste, but if comparing the cook times and prep, then Khloe wins by a long shot. Let me tell ya, working enough hours where you either sleep eight hours or cook a meal and sleep less then six hours, it is a game changer.

[@luckaddiction882]

I think it's very interesting how pancakes differ from region to region, like for example in Germany pancakes are very thin, almost as thin as a crepe and in the US pancakes are almost as thick as your thumb or maybe thicker

[@codygrinnell8676]

and here in Canada... the thickness depends on how I want to make my pancakes at that point in time!!

[@DukasFiguliras]

In brazil pancakes are thin also, and usually savory, with ground mrat or chicken, and then rolled up.

[@luckaddiction882]

The Cooking Breakdown is awesome and informative, love how the channel has been progressing of late!

[@mukkaar]

If you want easy ramen, just get store bought chicken stock, Tsuyu Soup Base and miso. Then finish with whatever protein and garnish you want, chili oil and sesame oil. This is actually easy ramen. Obviously you can do ramen that's not miso flavor, but it's really good hack for more depth for such an simple and quick recipe.

Extremely common for IP rights to go to your employer in a professional business environment.

Or they just copy a random recipe of the internet and since they make that recipe for themselves it suddenly turns into ''their recipe''. Like the spicy vodka pasta is literally just pasta alla vodka... No wait she used Orecchiette instead of Penne, genius.

regarding elvis, people seem to conflate 2 of his favourite foods. he was famous for the grilled peanut butter and banana sandwich, but he also was known to fly to a place in denver in 1976 to eat a sandwich that was peanut butter, grape jelly and bacon. that sandwich was apparently over 8000 calories!!!

[@CurrentlyObsessively]

No it wasnt. The amount of bacon, jelly, and pb would have to be massive to make it to 8000 calories.

[@KaiserFredVIII]

@@CurrentlyObsessively That sandwich was called the Fool's Gold Loaf and it did have a pound of bacon and a whole jar each of the grape jelly and peanut butter on a whole hollowed out loaf of bread. It would have around 2450 calories from the bacon, 2352 calories from the peanut butter (assuming around 400g per jar and 588kcal/100g) and 1000 calories from the grape jelly (again assuming ~400g in a jar and 250kcal/100g). USDA lists a whole loaf of bread as having 2006 calories. All together that amounts to around 7800 calories which is not far off from the 8k kcal figure that's commonly thrown around.

[@BlodofUlfhednar]

​@@CurrentlyObsessively It was on a giant sub loaf. The WHOLE sandwich was around 8k. They supposedly shared it.

Linda Thompson said Elvis wouldn't finish his large portions, he just found security in consistently seeing a really full plate in front of him. It was a reaction rooted in his Depression era/WW2 childhood austerity. She also stated she did attempt to portion his servings to what would be reasonable amounts, but he protested... and then explained the origins of this need for an abundance of food. Now you know the rest of the story.

[@annaleabrown4588]

Hailey Beiber's Pizza Toast reminds me of being a teenager in the midwest in the 90s (Gen X here). I would make toast in the toaster. Top with tomato slices. Top with cheese slices (usually cheddar, but PlastiCheese works if your desperate). Sprinkle on dried Italian Seasoning. In the oven to melt. Yum.

[@addiefalloutgirl313]

Lol my grandma used to make Pizza toast but without the fancy stuff cause she used to look for cheap stuff that she could use to make in quantities (cause she had many kids) And pretty much it was like Hailey's except she didn't put butter or truffle oil and the sauce was placed first then cheese and then she would put a tomato in top with salt and olive oil and put some oregano and basil

Just a word about the Abraham Lincoln recipe. Throughout most of history, recipes didn't have salt listed as an ingredient because it was assumed that people allready knew to add salt and that they would know roughly how salty they wanted it to be.

[@matthew.a2171]

22:05 Fun fact: A famous man once said “Did you know its commonly thought that pound cake got its name because the original recipe required 1 pound of flour, 1 pound of butter, and 1 pound of sugar. However, this is false, it’s actually named after the place it was invented. Pound Town. You know… where your mom lives.”

I've actually tried Dwayne's pancake recipe obviously skipping on the peanut butter due to my allergies and instead used pineapple preserve and cream cheese to serve with a honey maple drizzle. Really good honestly

[@mls01981]

The pizza toast gave me a chuckle. Reminded me of my childhood when our babysitter used to make grilled cheese by toasting white bread and slapping a cold piece of American cheese in the middle. The heat melted the cheese and no pans were needed!

For Betty White’s wing recipe.. what id do is simple. Instead of a marinade, take those ingredients, thicken it up a bit, and make a sauce out of it. Fry the wings like would any buffalo wing and toss. Nice little fusion of Asian and Bar food, I imagine it tasting something like a bourbon chicken but with fried wings.

10:22 Josh. Babe. Let me suppose this hypothetical situation: Some gal in let's say, Ohio develops a milk allergy and can't eat dairy anymore. She's watching this video and sees a recipe for vegan cheese and a real chef preparing it, and perhaps including their expertise in order to improve on the recipe but instead decides to take the low road and punch the poor vegans. (I am not vegan, for the record) So don't be a lazy butt and make the damn vegan cheese taste good! Or are you not up to it?

[@TheRowdyOwl]

Agreed, I'm not vegan either and if he doesn't like vegan cheese then I don't blame him, but why even bring up a vegan recipe in the first place? Good chef but can come across as elitist when it comes to allergies or dietary choices

[@this-aint-no-party]

it always baffles me when chefs refuse to make food that doesn't rely on animal products. suggests a large gap in their confidence/knowledge/skill and they always project that onto vegans/allergy people who can probably cook it better...

[@djoscartj]

If you are vegan, or just like incredible vegan recipes, take a look at Yeung Man Cooking on KZbin. Just his soothing voice will make you a fan, but the recipes are killer! I'm not vegan (it took me a long time to figure out once I got hooked) and I incorporate protein/meat to his recipes. In addition to his "normal" recipes, he's got special masterclass recipes for vegan mayo, "hardboiled egg", "sushi", etc. Visually, the dishes are incredible too, I think he used to be a pro photographer.

I love how Kylie and Chloe act like they eat instant ramen 😂😂😂 also that they cook at all

[@ArtemisDalmasca]

With Kylee's ramen, I love the breakdown of making it more carbonara-esque, but in terms of mixing in the scrambled egg, I've actually seen it recommended by a chef in korea in a video about stepping up instant ramens, like Shin. Except with his, you cook the noodles, remove them from the broth, then add the egg and cook for 30 seconds before adding the broth back to the noodles with the egg. It defiantly looks kinda weird/gross, but taste wise, its pretty good. I also add mushrooms into mine when I get a chance lol
