Video Podcast #36 - Contest Winners, Keto French Fries, Upcoming Recipes

Think of this video as an audio podcast (lots of me talking) with some video (mostly of me talking). I'll be discussing keto related topics that are in the news, discussing frequently asked questions from my viewers, and sometimes talking about some non-keto stuff (but probably cooking related).

I just made the keto french fries with coconut flour for the Second time first time I use 3 tablespoons exanthem gum and it was so so sticky I couldn’t even complete the job. Yesterday I saw Tim talks and he only used 1 tablespoon of xanthan gum so I just did that and it worked brilliantly you definitely need to eat them while they’re still hot but I was impressed just like you said you know they’re not fries but they are a damn good replacement!! And he even talks about laying them single layer before you fry them and freeze them and put them in a baggie and just pop out a handful any Time to fry them up

[@anoldladi]

I do like tiger nut flour. I only use it as a blend to stretch almond flour, since almonds are a bit upsetting to my gut if I get too much. I'll try it for faux fries.

[@lesliewilliams930]

I made these fries this weekend after watching her video. I wore vinyl gloves while mixing. They may not taste just like fries but they are crispy, crunchy, and with a dip, quite excellent. I played around using some seasoning in the mix as well, cajun seemed to work out pretty well.

[@rogerremus6053]

I shocked my wife - I made your best bread chaffle, mixed some tuna fish, mayo, onion and cheese together. Put on top of the chaffle and put it under the broiler until the cheese starts to melt, could wait until it browns a bit if desired. She complemented me multiple times on how good it was. She then said I could think about adding a hard boiled egg into the mixture because that might jazz it up. Love your channel -

We'll have to make a keto glaze to dip the coconut flour fries in!! They were a little more on the desserty side and not on a french fry side!

That’s so cool that someone recognized you!! Wanted to tell you that King Arthur has a new low carb “keto friendly” flour. It’s flour to be sure. I bought a bag, made a loaf of legit bread and did a glucose test. Had a decent slice of it toasted with butter and a fried egg. Quite tasty. My base glucose was 96 and at one hour was 111. At two hours I was at 107. Ketones actually went up .1. It’s dirty but I’m thinking for a thanksgiving treat, bread, pie or stuffing it might be ok.

Recently joined the community, you have been a tremendous inspiration and guide as I navigate a keto lifestyle. Already jumped on the new Keto Mojo meter deal, really like the speed of connecting and downloading readings you experience, probably one of the more aggravating things about the original.

Hi Steve, I agree about Heavenly Fans fries, coconut flour better for a sweet alternative but the Almond flour with chicken salt is absolutely amazing. My Son stole my fries over his regular fries and said they are amazing!!! Glad you gave her credit! : )

[@paulaoyedele2081]

So after watching Heavenly Fan and then watching your review, plus TIM? something (not sure of name) review with Lupin flour added, I decided to give it a go......but I did it cheat-o keto. I took 60g almond flour, 20g lupin flour, 10g coconut oil powder and shame shame 10g Idahoan potato mash flakes, 3 tsp xanthan gum and 8 tbs of hot water (but I think bone broth would be good). I fried 1/3 of it (12 fries) until crisp. I wanted to weep because of how tasty it was. It reminded me of Cavendish crispy fries-ish. Mine is a bit higher carbs but a cheat-o keto meal of fries for 10 carbs aint bad.

[@SeriousKeto]

That just made my stomach growl. I'm not kidding.

[@paulaoyedele2081]

@@SeriousKeto .....you know, I was just thinking, this is kind of an answer. A while ago I left a comment on your podcast regarding a potential keto-fiable modification of the long fries. I was watching a video about street food in Taiwan and they did these really long fries using cooked cooled potatoes mixed with either regular, rice or corn flour. And they would use this press (like a potato ricer) to fry really long fries. So cool that Heavenly Fan stumbled upon this. I would call this a keto breakthrough.

Wife and I just got back from a week in Puerto Vallarta and let me tell you, it is hard to remain keto in Mexico so I feel your pain. Their tortillas down there were amazing, especially on traditional breakfast quesadillas........

I wouldn't be able to stay keto there either...

[@bluecollarwineguy4447]

@@SeriousKeto if you don’t mind eating a lot of fish, you will be ok. The fish was better then what I can get here in the Seattle area and is fresh caught everyday. However, the homemade chips and tortillas are a killer. Pair that with the fresh pork and chicken and you were done for. BTW, not only do not drink the water but Mexican wine is pretty bad too.....

[@stonecold6243]

Bread is my weak spot I do it every once in a while and I believe sensible keto is more attainable then strict keto! Congrats on the kids I can only hope my girls follow my lead like that.

[@LoriHolcomb]

I went and watched the "fries" video by Heavenly Fan and I was wondering about using chicken broth instead of just plain water to add more flavor. What do you think?

[@SeriousKeto]

I think there are lots of possibilities with these fries. The two places my mind was going were cheese fries (using some cheddar powder and nutritional yeast) and frying them in tallow (like McDonald's did back when I was a kid). I think your idea of chicken broth could be an interesting addition.

[@paulaoyedele2081]

Sounds yummy

[@WhatsMarlyUpTo]

Hmmm, might test this out! I'm making mine with lupin flour and freshly grated parmesan cheese and they are SOOOOOO GOOOOOOD!!! The broth seems like it will only add to my enjoyment of these 'fries'. I've tried almond flour and coconut and now the lupin. Lupin is by far my favourite! Prior to obtaining this precious commodity, the almond flour was my preference.

[@BloomfieldVideos]

One more thing, have you tried Carbquick yet? Might help you with making hotdog buns. I just used to make a roux for Gumbo and worked amazing. Makes great biscuits as well. Maybe not clean keto, but it's not like I'm using everyday.

[@SeriousKeto]

I've used it and I don't feel that it would be the right texture for a hot dog bun. Like you, I've made some decent biscuits with it. I'll have to try it as a roux/thickener. That hadn't occurred to me. Thanks!

[@BloomfieldVideos]

@@SeriousKeto After considering using for a roux, I found an amazing video by THE CAJUN KETO CHEF. As someone who grew up in Louisiana, I've been making regular gumbo for years. I made his keto gumbo recipe and might be the best gumbo I have ever made. Check it out. Also made the etoufee and it was amazing. Trying his jambalaya next.

Hey, Steve. Thanks for the video. I subscribed to Heavenly Fan. I had not seen her channel before. I'm definitely gonna try the fries. My adult kid loves potatoes, and I believe that is her main obstacle to going low carb or keto. I'm wondering if a spoonful or so of mashed potato flakes, ground to a powder, would give them more potato flavor. It would add a few carbs, but I'm up for it if she will like them and not feel deprived. Will report back.

[@SeriousKeto]

I was doing some research on potatoes this morning. Mashed potato flakes have the highest glycemic index of any that I saw. I'd personally steer clear of those.

The great thing is once you dip them in a condiment, you forget that they're not potatoes. That said, the next time I'm do them, I'm going to fry them in tallow. See if that bring back memories of McDonald's fries before they moved to cooking in trans fats.

What I found is I miss is the crunch and the salt. As you say, even the real ones don't have much of a taste! H'm, I'm thinking some mixing of various flours I now have might make some fun experimenting for all of us that have been adding and adding to our flour inventory! I have not tried the Mesquite flour that came in my last order yet. That might really make an interesting French Fry! P.S. That lettuce wrapped burger was such a gut bomb, I'm now doing a 48 hour fast. I'm really glad you were able to feast on your celebration time with your wife. As far as I know, there hasn't been a study on if one can build a tolerance to carbs. That said, in doing regular meter readings, I have found that I can have a substantial carb meal now that I have been on Keto for over 2 years and it doesn't drop my ketones much below a .3 on the meter. I'm not advocating for doing this more than 2-3 times a year. A feast doesn't happen very often! It is amazing how a little latitude leads to licence.

Thank you also for suggesting that the coconut fry may do well as a " churro".

First...Boba Fett, Second...thanks for the heads up on the keto mojo, wasn't sure if I should upgrade, glad they are doing something on this. Third..I think that is why keto has been so sustainable and uncomplicated for me, no issues finding something I can eat, even at a gas station 😰

@katreyes63 I received my offer from keto mojo today right in the app when I synced my blood screening results. It’s a good one 😉

Thank you Steve! You're an awesome Dad two two awesome children!❤🙏🙏❤ I like Heavenly Fan but was unaware of the fries. I made diakon radish hash browns and yeah, they were good but not potatoes. It is so fun that you were recognized by Andrew ❤❤❤ I love that. Great job. I order some choc zero halloween ghosts on prime day. White chocolate I've not had that in quite sometime. I got some of their raspberry jam and it came already. It was delightful having PB&J. It is very good. The raspberry flavor is lovely. Occasionally looking at the offerings of jelly in the store but I'm not happy with the carbs or ingredients. Blessings to you and yours.🙏❤👍🍀🍀🍀

I just made your pumpkin pie filling again...DELISH!! I may try making frozen pops (kinda like fudgsicles) with some of that. Thanks for all your great info!

[@SeriousKeto]

I wonder if you were to whip a little cream cheese into it if that would make some good "pumpsicles"?

[@MsLee51]

@@SeriousKeto Exactly! I'll let you know how it goes.

[@MsLee51]

@@SeriousKetoHi Steve--I made them and think they are pretty tasty. Here is what I used: 1-8 oz block cream cheese, softened (I use Philly, less carbs) 2 TB. soft butter 1/4 c. sour cream 1 t. butter flavor (could use vanilla) 1/2 c. pumpkin pie filling 1/2 c. allulose 6-8 oz. heavy cream pinch salt Beat the cream cheese, add butter, sour cream and flavoring, beat again. Add pie filling, allulose and salt, beat again then add the heavy cream. Beat until soft-stiff but don't over-beat. I freeze these in 3 oz. cups using a popsicle stick. Allulose makes these come out less hard with the consistency of fudgesicles, which is what I usually make (recipe below). I've tried using Lakanto and they freeze too hard; I prefer them a bit softer. 1-8 oz. block cream cheese, soft 2 TB. soft butter 1/4 c. sour cream 1-2 t. vanilla or butter flavor 3/4 c. allulose pinch salt 8 oz. heavy cream 1/4 c. cocoa powder (opt: 1-3 t. instant coffee) Feel free to share if you think these are good. Thank you for all the wonderful work you do to keep us keto-peeps happy. Love and blessings to you and your family-Lee

Thanks for clarifying that keto monitor starch test . Those strips are way expensive!

[@SeriousKeto]

Even though the new ones are 20% less expensive, it does still add up when doing a test like the starch videos.

Let’s face it you becoming a celebrity. You’re videos content are unique and you keep it pretty interesting. Congratulations keep it up the good work.

[@SeriousKeto]

Wow, thank you

I just made the keto french fries with coconut flour for the Second time. The first time I use 3 tablespoons exanthem gum and it was so so sticky I couldn’t even complete the job. Yesterday I saw Tim talks and he only used 1 tablespoon of xanthan gum so I just did that and it worked brilliantly you definitely need to eat them while they’re still hot but I was impressed just like you said you know they’re not fries but they are a damn good replacement!! And he even talks about laying them single layer before you fry them and freeze them and put them in a baggie and just pop out a handful any Time to fry them up

[@RoseLawrence765]

Thank you Steve🎈 so glad you had such a wonderful time with your wife on your little mini anniversary vacation🎉🎈🦋

Yes! Hot dog bun! Courtney! What are we going to do without your taste testing with your dad?! Hopefully your mom will fill in. You know we all love your family, Steve. Thanks for sharing them along with the recipes.

Working on it. 😉

I’m not vegan but I love her channel and what she has to offer in knowledge. I haven had a chance to make her fries but I’m sure I will be happy.

Cheese recipes I'm in. Sad to say that over here in new Zealand we can't get the keto mojo sent out 🤔so missed out on that. But looking forward to some new recipe videos will make up for it.

My husband is a OTR Truckdriver and loves Kwik Trip, he likes they have actual groceries he can buy to use in the truck. Boba Fett is hiding out :D

Thanks for the fries recipe review. A good cheese sauce to go with it would be wonderful.

Insta pot recipes! Yay! I bought this expensive tool, and barely use it 😞

We use ours probably once per week.

Maybe use Anthony's powdered cheese for a sauce, dip? Sounds wonderful! I need more recipes for the powdered cheese! I bought it using a recipe by Kristie Sullivan.

[@SeriousKeto]

I've been playing around with it. It might be fun to take this French fry recipe and see if can be Cheetoe-fied.

[@caroldees9075]

@@SeriousKeto I tried using the cheese powder in crackers but my idea didn't work. I was trying for Cheese-its flavor!

@@caroldees9075 I did too. It didn't get me the flavor I was hoping for.

Those fries are a keeper! I made mine with almond flour and fried them in oil. I could eat them 3 times a week.

I love celeriac/root celery fries. It's clean and natural too. Only 7 g carb per cup cooked fries!

Boba Fett, Boba Fett! Love your videos, Steve. Best of luck to your children.

[@lynnm1905]

Hi Steve, Glad you had a great trip and enjoyed yourself while gone. I have also leaned off the wagon a little and also stayed in keto. I would recognize you and love to meet you, however, I'm in Florida and so the possibility of that is slim and none. I like you don't get out other than the grocery store or Costco. I have a question for you...Bocha Sweet granular sweetener. Do you still use it and recommend it? I went to your Amazon store and I didn't see it, and, haven't seen you use it lately on your videos. I do note that it is a bit more expensive. If you are not using it, what are you using that you like? I have been using monk fruit/erythritol granular and really don't care for it, so I thought I would try Bocha Sweet granular. Your comment would be greatly appreciated.

[@SeriousKeto]

That's still my sweetener of choice. I just haven't had any sweet recipes lately. Yes, it's more expensive, but give how little I use sweetener in my day-to-day cooking, I'd rather pay more for the sweetener I feel is the best. Here's the link: amzn.to/31jREKe

Hi Steve! I've been using a variation of the quest cinnamon chaffle recipe as a keto pancake and I discovered a fantastic tip. Any left over batter (if thin enough) can be "tapped off" of the spatula into semi droplets into your preferred grease and cooked a little extra to make crunchy keto pancake bits to be used as a snack (and even further if you let your imagination run wild). Similar to the process of making funnel cake.... speaking of funnel cake... keto funnel cake! Love the channel!

[@AndyPlaysGames]

Now that my imagination is going, this could potentially be "cereal"-ized if you can make the bits fairly uniform. Maybe dripped through a cheese grater?

[@SeriousKeto]

Great tip!
