We Tried Recreating The "Smooth" PB & J Sandwich

[@tylerwilliams]

HELLO and welcome to this video! What do you guys think about the ~smooth pb&j sandwich~? Personally, I think the curb appeal of this bad boy was unbeatable, but it did taste kinda strange. What item should we smoothify next?

[@人生は痛み]

there’s a part on the side where you can punch a straw through

[@mariannelortie4360]

I was part of the dexterity club that would manage to open with the pinch method

[@rhondamoore4885]

I thought the only reason to do that was to add cereal.

[@botansaluki4553]

Yes the best way to drink a small carton of milk is to open the carton completely. I did this as a child and was made fun of but then I convinced my 3rd grade class that it’s optimal for chugging. The lunch ladies were confused why one day the cartons were normal the next day fully open cartons everywhere.

As a former kindergarten aide I laughed at the milk carton discussion. I was the one who opened 70 milk cartons a day because none of them had the dexterity to do it themselves until the end of the year. Can confirm there were several kids that practiced the open jug method. 😂

[@hanC21317]

I would soak the milk in bread to flavor the milk, then strain it, and then gellify it! Such a fun concept, but I think my kids would label this snack “cursed.” Lol

[@Jabberwocky7890]

That's a very interesting idea! I was thinking long and hard about whether the jelly and bread aspects could be improved on but I came up blank for the bread. For the jelly though, I feel like making a concentrate from the grape juice first could definitely be the move if the jelly flavor was a little weak like they said.

[@dinafisman]

Yes! Heston Blumenthal style!

[@thespankmyfrank]

@@Jabberwocky7890 I feel like you could just go full grape juice, without the water. Sure, the sugar content might change the consistency a bit, but the taste would be a million times better.

[@Jabberwocky7890]

@@thespankmyfrank for sure, and Safiya and Tyler also noted that the peanut butter layer had a little bit of an unexpected consistency to it, but that it was their favorite part, so letting some good flavor compromise the purist idea of a fully gelatinous dish may not be so bad in this case. It may not turn out as pure blob-like in texture as say the rain drop cake, but I think it could taste better

[@CinderXiaoLong]

I wonder if you could soak the bread in milk, blend it into a puree, and then mix the bread and the bread milk in with the agar agar to really get that bread flavor. Kind of tempted to try it, but I'm too broke for any of the ingredients

[@aftonrae4038]

Carly, Safiya, and Tyler just saved me possible salmonella poisoning as I was actually craving a pb and j sandwich but they said Jiff was recalled so I checked mine and it is part of the recalled group! Thank you!

So many shoutouts to Emmy, that’s so awesome of you! So many people will maybe make one reference to someone who inspired them and leave it at that but you’re really giving her the recognition she deserves.

[@kogumasmommy]

If you guys liked the texture and look of this, it’s basically pb&j version of coffee/coconut jelly which is really popular in asian countries. If you do the same steps bur with coffee and condensed milk flavorings it would be soooo good

[@elizabethbennett5203]

I was thinking the whole time how this is just bastardized Annin Tofu and I agree, the milk version has been a long-time fave

[@sylviele3239]

This!! It'd be so fun to see Saf attempt to make those 3D flower agar jellies. Key word attempt because it looks super hard and I'd never do it myself lol

[@roblox_this1853]

Those are amazing you reminded me those exist and now I need to make some

[@its_clean]

Yes this! But they would need to either be more deliberate with the ratios of their ingredients, or just follow an authentic recipe for xingren doufu or rau cau dua. I think the biggest issue with the recipe they used here is it didn't adequately account for dilution and so all the flavors were mega watered down. Like think of the jelly layer...5 tbsp of juice into 8 oz of water? Of course it's going to taste like watery grape juice, and not even remotely like actual jelly.

[@JYYB]

Yes!!!! Asian coconut jelly is amazing!!! They need to try this, I wonder if they know what this is because they have Asian in them . Lol

[@joaopedroathayde757]

The safty crossover with emmy is everything 🥺

[@naiiiim]

riiight??? this needs to be a recurrent thing!

[@rosebyan0thername]

I love the dynamic they have here vs most of the content on safiya's channel. I like seeing Tyler take charge and mastermind the plan and I like seeing Safiya just awkwarding it out on the side (I say affectionately as someone who is also awkward on the sidelines most of the time). It's not like they're totally different people but it's a fun little subversion

[@its_clean]

In addition to Tyler being more in the driver's seat, Carly appears to be the only producer with a hand on the wheel and they all seem to pretty much let Saf run free with whatever weirdness she wants to do, unlike the much more polished and heavily produced main channel videos. Livestream vibes (which, by the way, are they going to start streaming again?) You can tell Saf is a lot more relaxed just by the more random funny shit that comes out of her mouth, and her occasional swearing (which she never does on the main channel) that for some reason makes me inexplicably giddy lol.

[@gwendolynrobinson3900]

Saf is the peanut gallery of Tyler's channel, and vice versa 🤭

[@TheSongwritingCat]

No one asked for this... in the best way. Trying a recipe from a video from 3 years ago is exactly the kind of energy I want from this channel.

[@its_clean]

I mean it's totally on brand for them though. "Doing cool trends...years after they were trendy", Saf said something like that on one of the old acrylic art or soap or candle videos.

Great to see Emmy getting some love, she has one of the most lovely, positive channels on the platform. If you guys wanted to try doing a more taste-focused version, it would be interesting to see if bread sauce mix (very common in the UK but I'm sure you can get it in the US, it's basically premade mix for actual 'liquid bread' as Safiya described) in the bread segments and a grape juice reduction for the grape segments could work. Great video!

[@CreatrixTiara]

There's a Malaysian dessert named kueh lapis (layer cake) and some versions of it are a lot like this structurally/texture wise. It's usually made with rice flour (and other things) and then steamed, and the dominant flavour profile is usually pandan, but it's still jelly like in texture!

For the jelly, I’d try a mix fruit juice concentrate and regular juice. The concentrate can be absolutely potent if it’s not diluted well enough, and the juice just needs that extra punch from being diluted.

[@amberluppens3292]

So I looked it up, and it seems I was wrong on one front, apparently it can be done with multiple elements. The one article I read (Fact or Fiction?: Lead Can Be Turned into Gold, from Scientific American, article from January 31 2014 for anyone who wants to check my source (which you should, first because good practice, and second because I am very aware I am an extremely unreliable source)) mentions it being done with both Bismuth and Lead, however it is still extremely cost ineffective. Quote from that article; ““It would cost more than one quadrillion dollars per ounce to produce gold by this experiment," Seaborg told the Associated Press that year. The going rate for an ounce of gold at the time? About $560.”

[@averylfong4843]

In Singapore (and I'm fairly certain many other parts of South-East Asia), agar agar jellies are a somewhat traditional dessert. They're served just like this "smooth PB&J" but with different flavourings - coconut, pandan, and dark brown palm sugar (gula melaka), and sometimes in more recent years, rainbow colours with fruit juice etc. You can often find them cut into pieces and served at cut fruit/juice stalls here, though they're maybe less common nowadays. The 'creamy' coconut layers are usually alternated with clear ones to get that layered/striping effect!
