no, yeast is NOT just flour and water, it is a living, breathing creature. Yeast is a type of fungus, a eukaryotic, single-celled microorganism. The water and flour mixture are for the little yeasts to eat

I appreciate how you actually EAT THE DISH you cooked. So many channels take a nibble and then push it away. It is 1000% more satisfying knowing that you really are cooking for yourself and eating and enjoying the dishes you make. Very genuine.

[@telanos2492]

Jamie indirectly addresses this in one of his Q&A videos when someone asked how he doesn't put on weight with all the food he eats through his cooking - and the simple answer is, that he has to exercise it off (what he doesn't say is that he would have to do ALOT of exercise... for most people, its simply not practical to exercise away your diet). I imagine for many of the other channels you see, the presenter don't have the time/inclination to do the amount of exercise needed to burn of whatever they've made, so they can only take a nibble if they want to keep to a reasonable weight.

[@pinkstarphoenix6182]

Don't throw the empty vanilla pod away, Jamie. You can make vanilla sugar just by storing the empty, dried pod in the sugar in an airtight container. Or put the dried pods in a blender and whizz it up. Use in cooking or in coffee or tea

[@lauramccoy8507]

Or add them to vodka to make vanilla essence 😊

[@christiandagher4299]

Jamie you left your egg yolks sitting idle a long time with the sugar before you whipped them. This cooks the egg yolks.

[@lacasalingadimoabit2317]

I was searching for this comment. Thank you 🙏 Indeed the yolks have a very low water content and sugar is hygroscopic (it tends to absorb water). So if you pour sugar in the yolks without mixing, the sugar tends to quickly dehydrate the yolks and this results in 'burning' the yolks. To avoid this, it is wise to mix sugar as fast as possible when it comes in contact with the yolks

[@TheLazyDutchGardener]

Thats what I was thinking as soon as he said lets put this on the side 🙈

[@michaela467]

[@docplinla]

Julia would say that sugar begins to "burn" the yolk as soon as they are introduced to each other so you have to beat them as soon as possible, which is why you had those hardened egg yolks to strain

[@HGrrrr]

Tis true and I also feel like he lost half the vanilla bean seeds when he passed it through the sieve. We live and learn, and some do it in front of a camera for all of us to see 😊

[@DenverBound2008]

I got this cookbook as a graduation present when I finished culinary school. I haven't cooked from it yet because I just don't have that kinda energy or money budget, but I look through it all the time and imagine that someday I'll set a weekend aside and tackle one of the really complicated ones. I don't consider it a coffee table book, but it's definitely more aspirational rather than practical. It's nice to see someone tackling these recipes.

Hi Jamie, have you ever heard of "In Search of Perfection" by Heston Blumenthal? It was a set of recipes of the "perfect x" including pizza, lasagne, burgers, trifle etc. cooked with only stuff that a home chef would have. Heston released all the recipes in a book, but I've never seen anyone attempt to cook these recipes from scratch based on his directions. Might be something to consider :)

[@carolmelancon]

I (once) made one of his recipes where you need to separate a pound of Brussels sprouts into individual leaves. Took me three Old Fashioneds sitting on a stool at the kitchen counter to get through them.

[@chriswest7639]

[@pinkyblushbottom1897]

theres so many things I love about your videos. the, "bowl me!", the silver fox with the dramatic text edit every time, the background music choises which go from relaxing to humorous to ominous always suiting the mood but never sounding like the grating overplayed royalty free stuff I hear in other videos. Its all great but most of all I really appreciate the boundless enthusiasm and determination you bring to every recipie even in the face of disaster and re-trys. You're one of my favorite creators on youtube, and I'm always excited for the next video ❤

[@mariaeugenia7599]

You should leave the yeast in the refrigerator! Usually when they say " seven grams of fresh yeast, it it important because dry yeast and fresh yeast are interchangeable in most recipes, but when it says fresh yeast , you should consider 1/3 of that amount if you use the dry kind.

[@carveylover]

With doughnut dough or else anything that relies on gluten development, you want to ideally use all the dough. You can't really re-roll it since that will cause more gluten development and makes the dough tough. I usually just cut up the scraps and fry them off and roll them in sugar, and then I have a little extra snack.

[@lisabishop6266]

My grandma's kids treats to keep us away from her pies lol. Any scraps were dusted w cinnamon sugar and we could eat all we wanted! Just don't look at the pies til after dinner 😂😂

20 years ago, at least in my part of the US (Northern Ohio) you could find fresh yeast in bars like that at almost every grocery store. We used it every Christmas for holiday baking. Now a days it's harder to find. It's cool to see a recipe calling for it.

[@wakemiamigreatagain]

I used fresh yeast in bakeries that I worked in after Culinary School in the '90s. I haven't seen it since. But, I'm sure its available, mostly through Foodservice Supply companies. I haven't seen it available at a grocery store at least in FL since the 80s.

[@judysocal8682]

I've never seen a huge block of fresh yeast like that. I've only seen the small maybe 1 or 2 oz ones at the market and I don't think they even have those anymore.

[@rebel4466]

Fresh yeast is so much better than the dried stuff. Sad that it's dying out over in America. Every grocery store in my area carries it. Not too much selection in brands, but not too much difference in the product anyway. If you ask nicely for a bit in a professional bakery, you might get lucky and they'll sell or even give you some fresh yeast. At least I hope that the pros are still using fresh yeast.

[@hessu6951]

In Finland the fresh stuff is much more common than dry yeast. Many home-style recepies specially call for fresh yeast and its like 15 cents in the store for 50 grams.

[@gerardacronin334]

During the early stage of the pandemic when there was no yeast to be had in the supermarkets, I was able to buy fresh yeast from a local high end restaurant, which, being unable to serve diners, had pivoted to a gourmet grocery. It was the Old Vibes restaurant at Quails’ Gate winery in West Kelowna, BC. Thankfully it is now thriving again as a restaurant.

It depends on schooling pedigree; if the chef trained in Europe prior to metric conversion, they used Imperial or weight measurement. Most cookbooks today have a common conversion chart. BTW: The young fellow in question is Canadian, living in Europe, so his default knowledge is likely metric.

Just so you know fresh yeast is not a starter. Yeast, in this case (for baking) is a single cell fungus. It takes 20 billion yeast cells to equal 1 gram. In baking yeast converts the sugars in the flour to release carbon dioxide. The expanding gas is what causes the dough to rise. Primarily in the kitchen there are two kinds of yeast Bakers yeast Brewers yeast. It is possible to make bread using brewers yeast. But you can't brew beer using bakers yeast. Actually that would be a cool experiment for you. Make two loaves of the same bread. One loaf using bakers yeast, the other using brewers yeast. ****This next part is most important for you.**** Fresh yeast, is about 70% water so it is extremely perishable. So store it well and use as much of it as you can before it expires. The other types of bakers yeast are Active Dry, and Instant. The difference being that active dry yeast is larger granules. Instant has been ground down to a finer texture. With active dry yeast it needs to be proofed in warm water or liquid because of the larger size. Instant yeast doesn't need proofing. Actually in this day and age neither active dry or instant need proofing any more. Chefs say that because that's what they were taught by the chefs that came before them and so on. They say that because of four reasons. One is because at one time only fresh yeast was available. And as I said fresh yeast is very perishable. So you test it. The second reason chefs say that is because the majority of chefs view their fans as complete morons. It's a small percentage, but it's there. The third reason is the chefs don't know you and never take for granted you may be a seasoned baker or cook. They treat every recipe they are demonstrating as if their readers, listeners, or viewers never cooked or baked anything in their lives before. The fourth reason is they don't want to get into a 1/2 hour lecture about yeast. Which I don't blame them. I personally use SAF Golden Instant yeast which I store in a mason jar in the freezer. As well as my SAF Instant Red yeast. I've never had a problem with them not working. The difference between SAF Golden and SAF Red is this: The SAF Golden is primarily for highly fortified dough. It works better in that denser environment of flour, butter, eggs, and milk. It's got a harder job to do to get past those barriers that can be a damper to the dough rising. Usually when I make an enriched dough I also use a helper. It's an ingredient that helps the yeast complete it's task. It also helps in browning. That is called Diastatic Malt Powder. I also use that powder when making rye bread because rye doughs generally don't rise as high as wheat. doughs in the proofing. I use SAF Red for non, or slightly fortified doughs. As in Italian bread, or French bread, or pizza dough. Actually you can make your own yeast. In fact you can add that to your list. Make 3 loaves of the same bread One with bakers fresh yeast One with brewers yeast One with your own homemade yeast. That could be a fun project for you. Anyway where are you on the topic of naming your food processor, mandolin, and refrigerator? We are anxiously awaiting your take on that issue,

Yeast is a small, living organism that gives off carbon dioxide when combined with warm liquid and sugar. Yeast is naturally occurring all over the place and different locales have different strains of yeast. When the Boudin Bread Co. went to establish satellite stores outside of San Francisco on the east coast, the bread wasn’t the same because the San Francisco Bay yeast is what gives it its signature taste and texture. The finished product looks absolutely incredible! I’m sorry the Timbits were being difficult (maybe you can give them to the Rogue Vacuumer upstairs...) I may just have to make this tomorrow. It looks soooooooooo good! Congrats!

**Warning Long Comment** After not having coffee for 2 weeks I had a big mug full and..well sorry this long chatty post is the result... This was a great video. I really love it when Jamie really enjoys what he's made. The progress he's made in his cooking is amazing. I had a close friend for over 2 decades that was a chef who handled things like Jamie does. He was a messy chef but great at his craft. He used to say that his mother said he was like a bull in a China shop, even as a child. He was much in demand as a chef in the city in which he worked. He wasn't the most innovative chef but he could follow recipes with an almost scientific precision and after making a dish from someone else's recipe exactly as directed he could tweak it the next time he cooked the dish and improve upon it. He was really great at reading a recipe and knowing how it was going to taste. I'm no chef but I've been cooking, making real meals, since I was age 6 and I've developed the ability to know in my head how a dish will taste by reading the ingredients and the preparation methods. My mother suffered from depression for several years, so my sister and I often had to fend for ourselves foodwise, we learned to do the shopping and some of the cooking before I was even in elementary school. I remember fixing meals for my mother and sister at age 6 and trying to get my mother to eat. After mom's depression lifted she became a working career woman and my sister and I were latch key kids from 2nd grade forward. While still in elementary school we often had dinner ready when mom and dad got home from work. I think our rather odd upbringing really helped my sister and I become really good home cooks. We can both take stock of what we have on hand and create our own dishes quite easily. I didn't have to learn to grocery shop and cook after I moved out of my parents home like so many of my friends did because I'd been doing it for over a decade already. I live alone now and don't cook from scratch nearly as often as I used too but I need to get back into cooking again and learn to enjoy cooking for just myself as much as Jamie does.

Lovely post- only getting to know Jamie now- I also live alone now and my “get back into baking” is the Coronation quiche ❤ for friends… hope it’ll be a success!

Same. Aged 5 though. Supper on the table promptly at 6:30 every night.

Julia being a bit passive aggressive with the ice cube toss! 😂

[@franciet99]

Jamie, you’ve come a long way!!! Fantastic job! You have done so many wonderful techniques and learned so much! Made me want to make some.

[@mik2lite]

This was such a joyful video!

For frothy milk, get barista milk. they usually sell some that are better suited to froth up.

[@kaleidoscopiceyes333]

Omg! That looks SOOOOO good.

[@jenoots]

Wow that was amazing!!

[@lucycat241]

Looks so yummy! So glad that all the effort paid off.

[@eddiegreene7334]

You are getting so impressive. Congrats on an other great and really enjoyable video. Thank you , I smiled all the way through!

[@PKScoop]

OMG!!! That looks so good!!! Thank you for this, I am going to have to get this somewhere!

[@penelopemackenzie1301]

I love these videos. I look forward to one every day. Watching you cook is a delight. Kudos on the music which is a perfect " side dish". Hello from Brantford, ON.

Oh man, if you're cracking open the French Laundry cookbook, I highly recommend doing the pig head torchon. It's kind of a stupid amount of work, but the result is the most essence-of-pork little hockey pucks ever. And the gribiche sauce that goes with it is a real winner on all kinds of meat dishes in general. Seriously one of the best things I've ever eaten.

[@najuh74]

This looks HEAVENLY!!! I never desired a desert from yours more!!

[@MichiHenning]

Really good video! This one sort of is all in one piece with all the right ingredients. Clear, not too long, some jokes, but not so many that they get annoying, and a really good recipe. I enjoyed watching this, thank you!

[@JoePauley]

I could watch you cook and eat all day, my friend. And that looked absolutely delicious.

[@lenapawlek7295]

Looks soo good!!!

[@emazey5044]

Well done! Your enjoyment at the end is delightful. 👍✨💕

Yeast is a living organism. The flour and sugar just feed it.

[@beckyward6650]

Well done. Looks delicious.

[@robint192]

[@kayldee1215]

Thank goodness I have that cookbook because my mouth was watering watching you eat your creation. Omg, that looked great.
