[@lilnikki3233]

True that!

Binging with babish.

[@ASolzhenitsyn]

Put the strawberry tart in the fridge for a bit until the pastry cream and glaze firm up some. Will provide a much less messy final product.

[@antichef]

Totally! That would have done the trick

[@EMSpdx]

This!

[@JohnSmith-fi5no]

Also, when cooling pastry cream, put on butter, not milk.

[@uleubner]

Or glaze the crust, add the pastry cream, then refrigerate, let it set in the crust, and then top with the fruit. Brushing the glaze on, rather than dipping, would have avoided having the liquid glaze water down the pastry cream. Likewise, at least some of the milk soaked into the cream, thinning it. If you don't want the added fat of butter, you can just cover it smoothly with plastic wrap or parchment paper.

[@AmbassadorKat]

[@michaeltres]

Crème pâtissière will not curdle at the boiling point, because the starch in the flour stabilizes the yolks. In fact, you MUST boil the custard for about a minute to denature the α-amylase in the yolks. Without boiling, the α-amylase will remain active and will "digest" the starch in the chilled custard and make it watery.

[@pastda3]

Baking truly is a science!

[@Sibelle83]

Long story short: the crème pâtissière was undercooked, that is why it did not hold its shape 😅. Nice to know the scientific substantiation though

You can tell Jamie has really learned and grown because he isn't afraid to go his own direction sometimes. It really shows the skills he's gained.

[@jeanvignes]

I agree 100%. I am beginning to wonder if he is intentionally "messing up" in order to keep us on the edge of our seats. How can anyone do this much cooking and STILL not know what it means to add a THIN stream of fluid/oil to something you're whisking/mixing? I swear he just slops it in to make us cringe and laugh! Tricky!

[@Anil18834]

​@@jeanvignesgentil streams are not in Jamie's nature. He's a roll with the punches kind of guy😅

[@LadyBeyondTheWall]

@@jeanvignesI don't think he does it on purpose, personally. I honestly just think he's really impatient with some stuff, lol.

[@gagamba9198]

Fresh fruit + sugar = juicy juicy. Toss your fruit with sugar, let it sit for awhile so the juices start to come out, then strain out those juices. You may add the juice to the apricot jelly later during the boil, if you like. You could also add a 'barrier' on the crust with an egg wash at the end of its blind bake. Some cornstarch or tapioca powder will stiffen the custard. Saddened there were no guest star appearances today. Are they participating in the Writers' Strike? Whatever you're paying groaning fridge, whirring Hoover, and shrieking siren... treble it.

[@jakewastaken]

This plus sticking with butter instead of milk for skin prevention plus letting it setup in the fridge would have made it perfect!

[@doubled334]

Mixing the juice from the fruit with the cooled pastry cream.

[@StormWarningMom]

Didn't he use Steve the food processor? That was one guest. I'm not sure but I think the Charlie Brown spatula made an appearance as well. 😏

[@mmmhorsesteaks]

Julia: 'dot with butter to prevent a skin from forming' Jamie: 'How about milk Julia 'DID I STUTTER? BUTTER!'

[@bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb-]

Yeah, the additional milk might have been absorbed somewhat and that addition might have brought the balance of the crème pâtissière out of whack.

[@mostlyh2o233]

Put a shower cap over your smoke alarm when smoky stuff happens. Of course, remove it after so you don’t die in your bed in a fire…

[@daijinjim2806]

Pressing a piece of plastic wrap on the surface of the custard will prevent the skin from forming

[@cmtippens9209]

I was surprised to see that Julia's instructions to remove the skin by blanching the peaches did not include them being immediately plunged into an ice water bath to help remove the skin.

[@etienne8110]

​@@cydkriletich6538that s why i come in this comment sections, there are always great tips. Thanks for the intel, will try it next Time.

[@yamiyukiko7362]

If you don't want a skin to form on custard, use plastic wrap before putting it in the fridge. Make sure the plastic wrap is touching the custard

[@leec5170]

I was looking for this comment!

[@shuvanidev]

Yeah, it works great. I always use it and just gently smooth the plastic wrap over the entire surface of the custard right to the edge of bowl and stick it in the fridge.

[@doubled334]

As we say in France "to the touch"

[@JenMaxon]

You can also add a thin layer of sugar - need to reduce the sugar in the custard though or it will be too sweet

[@melinaalba63]

Yeah but I personally kind of like it more to just use butter/ milk or whatever because it saves so much plastic :)

[@bflogal18]

Jamie, cut a crosshatch on the top of the peach. Place in boiling water for 15-20 secs. Immediately put the peaches into clod water. When they are cool enough to touch, the skins will peel off easily. Also, use freestone peaches .

[@maryokeeffe3528]

Looking at the recipe he showed us, Julia did say freestone peaches. Always follow Julia! 😁

[@laurabritton1613]

I was going to say the same. Most of the peaches we get here in Ontario are clingstone and it makes me batty. Sigh.

[@catherinewhite2943]

Can't recall the last time I saw freestone peaches for sale. In my area if you want freestone you'd have to grow them yourself.

[@Mouserjan0222]

I was going to also comment that he didn't do the peaches correctly but probably not his fault. I can peaches and I'm yelling at my computer NO NOT LIKE THAT!

[@bearo8]

Also if the pot is half water half peaches you don't boil them for 15 seconds because the peaches cool the water down. Do one peach after the other

[@sebforce1165]

I don't know how the whole "Bowl me" thing started, as I haven't been that far back yet, but that has to be one of my favourite things on this channel for the simplicity and how well it's pulled off! And the Tarts look _amazing,_ very fun watching you get more and more confident with cooking so many different things :D

[@bahhumbug9824]

I've found myself saying "Order Up!" when I've finished cooking something. This is a very infectious show and I mean that in a good way.

[@Chanelchen123]

Jamie, Julia would be chuffed to bits with you. The journey was sometimes rocky but, like a true apprentice, you battled through obstacles and are now a master yourself with a bit of a slapdash attitude thrown into it. Rockstar chef on the Tubes.

[@antichef]

Aw shucks. Thank you! 😊

[@BluuBird2]

Little side note why fruit tarts often have glazes on top: When you work with fresh fruit, they tend to go bad really fast or at least oxidise and look a little sad when exposed to air. The glaze seals them off from the air and keeps them fresh and pretty for longer ^^

[@alexanderbreault4680]

I like to use sugar as pie weights, and then use the toasted sugar in the pie filling. Awesome work!

[@shannono9421]

Ooooooo nice tip! That sounds delicious

[@aliciaholborn6748]

Sounds amazing. How do you do this? Please excuse my ignorance.

[@EMSpdx]

Ooh, that brilliant!❤

[@robroy7494]

​@aliciaholborn6748 you would do it the same way he did in the video (cover raw crust with foil then add weights) except instead of pouring in the pie weights you would pour in sugar instead

[@aliciaholborn6748]

@robroy7494 thanks, that makes sense. 👍

[@katrichardsonwriter]

Your peach will peel and pull off the pit more easily if it's properly ripe (even freestone peaches don't want to let go when the flesh is still immature.) Getting a ripe peach these days is tricky, since they are usually shipped under ripe to resist bruising and spoiling. Look at the area around the stem: It should not have any trace of green. The stem itself should move easily, or even come off, with just a little wiggle. And if the peach doesn't smell like a peach, it won't taste like one either. Same is true for plums, nectarines, apricots, apriplums, pluots, pears, and apples (aside from the "green ripe" varieties). Don't store them in the fridge unless they are already overripe. (My family grew peaches and nectarines commercially for 3 generations, so I picked up a few tricks.)

[@etienne8110]

In some places it is incedibly hard to find ripe fruits. Some cities are do far away from the orchards that fruits are taken almost green... the maturing once harvested just isnt the same..

[@fvfre246]

I work for a peach farmer on Saturdays selling peaches and I have peeled a lot of peaches. Blanch 10 to 15 sec maybe 20. and dump into ice water. Let cool.. a few sec. Find the crack on the top, starting the crack cut around the peach lengthwise. Once you have cut all the way around twist and pull peach in half exposing the pit. Use a spoon to remove pit. You should now be able to to peel the half easily and cup side down slice.

[@fishfootface]

Thanks for those tips. Brilliant. 👍

[@jabbaa6500]

Chill the strawberry tart before you put the strawberries on. The custard will set up, don't use milk just lay plastic wrap or waxed paper on the surface when it is cooling. It has to come in contact with the custard to prevent the skin form forming. NEVER cut strawberries when used for something like this as they will weep and make a mess. Love Ya!

[@arlysveen706]

Well, how do you get the stems off? Pull them?

[@BethGrantDeRoos]

@jabbaa6500 Spot on advise in regard to the plastic wrap !!! ♥ Actually thought everyone knew that 😄

[@valarya]

Another commenter hit us with the science on why it was watery: "Crème pâtissière will not curdle at the boiling point, because the starch in the flour stabilizes the yolks. In fact, you MUST boil the custard for about a minute to denature the α-amylase in the yolks. Without boiling, the α-amylase will remain active and will "digest" the starch in the chilled custard and make it watery."

To prevent shrinkage of my tarte shells, I always put them in the freezer for at least 30 minutes. Then bake right away, greetings from Germany😊

[@ninino86]

Jamie, tip for you! Roll the dough with a parchment paper above and below the dough. No need for extra flour and the dough wont stick to the surface or the rolling pin. And when its thin enough, take off the top paper and use the other paper to lift the dough up and flip it over the pie tin. No mess, no fuss 👍☺️

Jamie, you have inspired me! I made the strawberry tart today. My crème oatissiere got a bit scorched on the bottom, but it is solid and stable in the tart. My tart pan is 11” in diameter so I made more pastry and crème patissiere, but I ran out of strawberries so I have a ring of apricots and blueberries round the outside. It turned out great! It was a lot of work but totally worth it.

I don't think two Tbs. of cognac is really "boozy", but you can always just leave it out if you don't like it (maybe put in some vanilla bean or something else instead).

[@the_burg_urban_garden]

Tip: use the small end of a melon baller to take the stems out of the strawberries 😊

[@FelisTerras]

Those tartes look supertasty and quite sexy. Pro tip; when glazing straberries, either stick them on a toothpick to help shake off the excess glaze, or glaze them on the rack, so the surplus doesn't mess up your custard. Glaze the strawberries after chilling them, the glaze will set faster, preventing it from dripping

[@valarya]

Watching you put a fruit tart in the oven with no drip pan has me freaking OUT 😂😂

[@Tiberon098]

The everyman cooking and baking KZbinr, watch the progress from early videos to now is amazing.

[@Natronwasserglas]

My mum taught me to always sprinkle a generous amount of rolled oats underneath the fruit when baking with fresh fruit, to soak up those juices (and I guess add some healthy fiber lol). Works really well :)

[@KSmithson]

Next time you make a cooked fruit tart stir a heaping tablespoon of corn starch or minute tapioca into the uncooked fruit. That will rectify the excess moisture after baking rather than the turkey baster method. Oh and I always look forward to your next video. Excellent show.

[@ericamueller9086]

When you have seasonal fruit and just want a simple drssert, use any cookie dough you like: sugar cookie, snickerdoodle, pecan sandie, oatmeal, almond, etc. Just pat the dough into a pie pan. Arrange or dump the fruit into the unbaked crust. Sprinkle with sugar or drizzle with honey or syrup, bake 35-45 minutes on a lined sheet pan that has preheated at 375 F. Start checking at 30 minutes. If desired, brush a melted jelly (currant, apple, or quince) glaze on the cooled tart and let cool. Cut slices directly from the pie pan.

[@marketads1]

I LOVE this idea! Very modern, fast paced food provider. Queen of the short cuts! And why not?

[@dinasawlani]

For a clean finish, use a microplane to even the scraggly crust, brush on egg wash to seal the base, sides and crust top and pop back in the oven for a few minutes. This helps prevent leakage of juices, and gives a polished, glossy finish. For a fully baked crust for chilled tarts you could also brush the inside with white chocolate to seal before adding the fillings. Adding a bit of vinegar to the dough helps relax the gluten and prevents discoloration in the fridge. To make removal of the base easier place the crust into the freezer for a few minutes and it should pop right off. For a smooth, luxurious crème pat blend in some butter after it cools a little with a stick blender. You want the butter to emulsify, not melt.

[@tessie7e777]

Loving peach pie and peach cake like crazy myself, I’ve done a lot of struggling with the peeling and pitting. Now I absolutely never buy peaches unless they say free stone, which means they easily come off of their pit. That’s a pro tip right there. 😅 did I mention I enjoy your channel immensely?!?!

Very enjoyable! The soufflé was a treat..😂😂❤

[@carveylover]

Can I make a suggestion for the peach tart. One, I like to add a little almond flour to the crust. You can probably Google the ratios since every crust is different. It just works well with both peach and also the strawberry. I also like a slight layer of marzipan or almond paste on the bottom of the crust. Again, it pairs well with the peach. You can also make a peach filling similar to an apple pie filling with the cornstarch so it is thicker, and that way, if you have any juices released, it won't just be a liquid mess. Ok, those are my suggestions. Bon Appétit. Also, note that Julia's recipes are so old school that you can always find modern techniques to help with certain aspects of them. Cling wrap is a thing. Just use that to prevent a skin from forming over your pastry cream.

[@donnaholland1625]

Skinning a peach is like taking the egg shell off of a boiled egg… everyone has theories about how to make it work but in the end it is up to the peach and egg. I make a lot of peach preserves, I look for ripe peaches (which you had) I also cut an X into the bottom of the peach before dropping in the water. With how those peaches looked I am very surprised you had a problem with them. Since the pit was also hard to take out it sounds like the peaches were not actually ripe enough. But in the end you just have to go with what you have and make the best of it. Because I cut the bottom of the peach I tend to leave it in the boiling water until I see the skin starting to peel back. I also drop the peach into cold water to cool down.

I’ve been watching your videos for a bit and I’ve been intrigued by the cookbook. I’m 23 and I’ve been living on my own for four years now, but I’ve never bought a cookbook even though I religiously watch cooking youtube and love cooking in general. I’m moving to a whole a different city for uni, I have a roommate and with that comes a bigger kitchen. I want to feel more at home in my new home in a strange city so after watching your videos today I finally ordered the art of french cooking vol 1 and 2 + couple other cookbooks. I already feel bad for my roommate and I can’t wait to try out the more legendary recipes on your channel. I’m not so big on dessert, but do enjoy making it and now that I’m not living alone I have someone to feed it to. I’m going to stress-bake my way through law school. Thank you for inspiring us home chefs, young and more middle-aged to give more to our cooking hobbies.
