I'm an American baker watching this. I'm so jealous of that beautiful copper cookware in the backdrop, lol! Also I keep going, "200 degrees, why so low? Oh right, Celsius." 😂

[@marcoqueme2868]

You gotta love celsius it's so cute

[@ktarnik]

It is high time to join the rest of the world in using SI units. Your scientists are using them for decades.

[@karenwood2615]

So, when they were saying 180°, that was in Celsius? We Americans are so out of the loop when conversing with people in other countries about anything referring to a temperature. See, I would have attempted to make that yule log and it would not have come out right and I would have had no idea why. Thank you for the clarification. It's not something I would have thought about.

I live in the United States. I noticed the ingredients you use are very vibrant in color. The butter is a bright yellow, the eggs are really bright orange. I am sure that adds so much to the flavor and probably better nutrition as well. I am envious.

[@Jazzzzyyyy__]

Honestly, and to get quality ingredients like that here in the States it would be so expensive compared to what we find at a grocery store

[@leekilby9470]

Best option is to buy from a local farmers market or supplier if available in your area...will be at a premium price regardless. Wish we had quality food at affordable prices in the US, a crying shame.

[@TheNinnyfee]

If you have any professional skills to offer that farmers could use you could offer it in exchange for produce. :)

[@karenwood2615]

I noticed the eggs too. I think they have a royal dairy. I've not seen anything like that in the states either. Not even from people who brought me eggs that have chickens. I wonder what they are feeding them?

[@Hal-Blue]

@@karenwood2615 I have noticed eggs with those orange colored yolks from local farmers and grocery stores. Some companies have those sorry can't remember the name of the store bought at the moment Starts with a S. The butter is the same color as really good Amish or local butter from local dairies that sell local butter in tubs covered with waxed paper and saran wrap with a rubber band to hold closed in stores. Not really that expensive either and you support local farmers instead of corporation or smaller companies that sell in markets. The color of the yolk like the color of the egg shell comes from what the birds are eating. Plus since you won't be eating tons of this support your local farmers they need you funds more than those big companies.
