[@Larweigan]

Is this an American thing? In Sweden eating raw eggs is not generally a problem

[@CaptainCed]

@@Larweigan it is. US producers wash the eggs removing the waxy outer layer which makes them susceptible to bacterial contamination. This is also why you need to keep eggs in the fridge in the US. That's why here in Europe you often find little downy feathers or splotches on our eggs. If you wanna see the layer, add a little vinegar to the water while boiling some eggs and then run your finger over the shell when you take the eggs out. You'll find some stuff sticking to your fingers - that's the protective layer.

[@Larweigan]

@@CaptainCed oh! That's a cool test. Gonna do that with my students

[@mozarteanchaos]

i thought part of why salmonella isn't a huge problem these days is because chickens generally need to be infected with it to spread it to their eggs, so a healthy chicken will produce salmonella-free eggs? i'm not casting doubt on the waxy outer layer theory, just wondering about how these theories interact ig (or if what i've heard is even true)

[@bixiebee6165]

@@mozarteanchaos chickens dont need to have salmonella to pass it on, a lot of healthy chickens produce eggs with salmonella, but it (usually) wont survive on/in the egg itself, so its a little bit of both i guess!

Great video! My mom recently got an ice cream maker that she was really excited about and wanted some wacky ideas for flavors, so I showed her this. While we were watching along and enjoying the upbeat and casual vibes over our obnoxiously loud machine, she said, entirely unprompted, "You know...I hope this guy's actually happy." When I asked her to elaborate, she responded with something along the lines of, "I hope he isn't forcing an eccentric persona to overcompensate for some kind of deeply rooted mental problem." I was so caught off guard by this comment made by my immigrant mother on this simple and fun cooking video that I was left speechless while our ice cream machine's whirring resonated throughout our kitchen. We're definitely planning on trying the peanut butter and jelly flavor!

Okay everyone, I made the old bay hush puppy ice cream. It was a DASHING success it's actually so good. 😭 I make a lot of homemade ice cream and know the ratios I like, so I went pretty off the recipe on the website. I did 3 egg yolks, 2 cups milk, 1 cup heavy cream (yes, swap the milk amounts, in my opinion more heavy cream just gives it too much of a fatty film in my mouth). Same amount of sugar, but I started out with the right amount of cornmeal and old bay, but then I tasted the milk mixture heating on the stove and it tasted too much like old bay, so I added more cornmeal. But then when the batter was all combined and ready to go in the fridge, it didn't have enough old bay flavor, so I added a couple more dashes of that. Moral of the story is maybe just stick to the original amounts. Or be like me and add like another tbsp of cornmeal and then another like 1/2 tsp of old bay. Just taste as you go. Don't be afraid. This is your ice cream.

"Leechi" and "laichi" pronunciations are both technically correct! It just depends on the language and dialect you're translating it from. As an example: among ethnically Chinese people there is a difference.
