Is Walmart Steak Better Than Whole Foods?

Honestly, potato egg would work out beautifully as a breakfast option. Love to see Josh's version of potato egg.

Yes twice baked potato egg vs once baked avocado quail egg.

I love making twice baked potatoes. After I scoop them out. I'll butter and salt the skin. The stick them under the broiler for a couple of minutes. Before refilling and baking. It makes for a delicious, crispy skin.

[@OrbObserver]

You could call them thrice baked potatoes

[@IanSrewop]

This sounds like a very very good method for doing this. I have never tried making them crispy before stuffing them. Thanks for the tip.

I'm too lazy to scoop and refill the skins. I just grate the baked potato, skin and all, mix with the other ingredients, and bake the second time in a casserole dish. 🤷‍♂️

Trader Joe's is a Subsidiarie of Aldi , so some of there stuff comes from the same farms and distributors.

@funnyman6685 In the States, Trader Joe's is technically owned by Aldi Nord... though they claim to stay out of most business decisions. The Aldi in the States (and Trader Joe's in Europe) are run by Aldi Sud. Aldi Nord and Sud are each owed by a different brother.

Canola oil comes from the canola flower which was bred in Canada from rapeseed cultivars. The name comes from "Canada oil, low acid" Which spells out Canola. So basically Canola oil is rapeseed oil with a name twist from Canada.

[@itsDaedrin]

@@user-ds4gp8dr2q Much like the heat tempering done to cheap olive oils, most canola oils are overly processed to have that high temperature stability and smoke point. A raw canola oil actually has an amazing flavour profile. But like real fresh olive oil, has different smoke points and varies by season and region.

Potato Egg is a good idea. You could do a twice-baked situation, maybe fold some tomatoes and cheese into the potato meat, and nestle it around the egg before you bake it all off, for a potato shakshuka.

I love the direction you went with this primarily because it is a combination I would never come to naturally but sounds amazing.

[@DrunkSamurai]

Potato meat?

[@yoda5436]

@@DrunkSamurai meat can sometimes be used to describe the flesh of a plant so the starchy insides of a potato would be the potato meat (for example you've probably heard coconut meat before, it's the same concept)

[@grass-ifrass]

Canola (a derivative of rapeseed) is a yellow flower that has a oily seed! Fun fact: it was developed in Canada I the '70s! Which may also be part of the reason why it's such a popular crop in the Canadian prairies. Its name, "Canola", also comes from the words "Canadian oil".

[@GrahamCrannell]

10:00 - canola is a portmanteau of "Canadian" and "oil, low acid". It's a type of seed oil from a plant in the cruciferous family (like brussels sprouts, cabbage, and broccoli) that was specifically bred to be low in erucic acid and good for use in food

[@H0LL0WFAITH]

I would love to see a sidetracked series, just full of the ideas everyone had while cooking something else. Such as potato egg

[@hartlas]

Idk if they've done this before or not but I think a cool video idea would be to do store brand precooked/frozen food vs. the same food using fresh ingredients from that store. So for example you pick Walmart and you get a Great Value frozen pizza, then you have to try to make a better pizza using ingredients from Walmart that total about the same price as the frozen pizza. Could be fun and also interesting to see if there are any cases where it's better/cheaper to go fresh/homemade vs. frozen/store bought 😁👍

[@zeusathena26]

As someone who has no choice but to buy at Walmart, I can't express how important good spices are! I buy my spices from a spice shop that has fresher, better, tastier, & usually cheaper spices than any store, even Whole Foods. Find a good spice shop (or online), & your food will be way better.

[@bcaye]

Or grow your own. Very easy after the initial investment.😊

[@savannahwise7058]

Not to mention less unlabeled fillers! I'm allergic to wheat, corn, and soy, and I was wondering what kept making me sick when all my food was supposed to be safe. The FDA doesn't require companies to include fillers in their ingredient lists, and I found that once I bought the more expensive spices, I stopped getting sick. Even for folks without allergies, this is good since you're getting more of the product you actually want and less meaningless corn byproduct

[@zeusathena26]

@@savannahwise7058 my cooking has always been popular, but getting excellent spices have made it even more popular. I spend less, & get as little, or as much as I want. Knowing how to use spices makes a huge difference, && so does the quality of the spices.

The local Walmart to me has a really good meat department. They even carry USDA Prime steaks, and at a fairly reasonable price. Granted, that Walmart is not far up the street from the Jaguar/Land Rover dealership in town, so they may stock their store a bit differently from most of their stores.

[@hardlee2432]

okay, no joke, one of my fav breakfasts is dicing up some potatoes (or just make hashbrowns), frying them up in a pan and topping it with an over easy or medium egg on top with a little cheese and letting the egg yolk just run over the potatoes. Don't eat it as often anymore cuz it's not very healthy but man it's so freaking tasty. I'd bet Nichole would change her mind over something like that.

[@Ca55per]

"Season to the edge" is not a metaphor. It means don't just season the middle... actually season it "to the edge".

Next time you do one of these you should put the different ingredients on separate plates. OR swap the sides. Would be interesting to see if rather than overall meal the Mythical Chefs can determine where each part of the meal comes from.

It's akin to arguing against specifically recommending a carving knife to a chefs knife for thanksgiving, they do perform the same functions but one does it differently.

Potato egg kicked up version! Scoop out halves of baked potato, deep fry like potato skins but only to half done. Crack egg into half and put cheese into other half. Place cheese half on half with egg and wrap with a slice of bacon. Bake in oven at 350 F giving the egg time to cook while the bacon and potato crisp up. You could try baking the potato in it's separate halves then bring together wrap with bacon and deep fry till crispy. Use some of the removed potato mixed with beaten egg as a cement to keep the cheese from flowing into the fryer oil. Of course season the potato and egg as you like, maybe with some of your favorite hot sauce before baking. Ok now I have to go make this and see how it works.
