FIRST Spice cake in The SPICE (Sustainable, Physics-Inspired Culinary Education) Lab!
The first day back to class at Appalachian State University post-Hurricane Helene was World Food Day and so I thought a Spice Cake from The SPICE Lab (Sustainable, Physics-Inspired Culinary Education) for my Physics of Food and Cooking class (PHY2220) would help ease us into the return to class (probably for me more than the students - cooking is mentally grounding!).
A return to "normal" feels nice, but is feels heavy considering how many people in our area are so far from any type of "normal." This event has only heightened my commitment to this work. Stay tuned for many more cooking videos to help us utilize the climate mitigation strategies that exist in our kitchens!
We are a strong, supportive community and I know we will recover, but this will take time, patience, cooperation … and a lot of cake!

Home-made GRANOLA - you won't believe how easy (& inexpensive) this is!
Переглядів 104Рік тому
My go-to afternoon snack - delicious, easy, whole-grain, granola. I make it simple and add whatever nuts and fruit I'm craving each day. Also - granola is perfect to cook with an already hot oven as it cools off (passive cooking!). Give it a try!! #knowwattscooking #carlaramsdell #granola #glutenfree #snack #convectionoven #passivecooking #breakfast #noprocessedfood #healthyrecipes

Can you freeze them
cool
Where did you get the mug
This is a really, really good explanation. The only thing I would've liked you to add (or do a future video on) is why electron movement in the pan changes the temperature, and why wrapping a wire around a screw makes it magnetic. That may have made the video too long, though. I'm surprised this video isn't more popular!
Just realized you're from Boone -- shout-out from Asheville! Hope the storm wasn't too bad over there.
You use a Pound of lentils. What is a pound of lentils? Do you convert the cost of the lentils to cost in British pounds? Why not just weigh the lentils in grams?
How long can it stay in bag before zpoiling.... Anything overcooked?
Really enjoy your videos! Definitely best way to cook lentils.
You can just set it on the bottom of the silicone bucket while in use without burning the bucket?
PRETTY IMPRESSIVE 😇👍🏾
Thanks for sharing this. I invested in a flaker with the intent to make granola with whole grains like oats, barley, rye, etc. Your recipe is the simplest I’ve seen so far and easily adaptable for different types of grains. Well done. 👍
LOL I do the same thing. Living in south Florida, I find herbs at my local Publix "two for $7.00". Basil and Thyme are my go to herbs for cooking.
Thanks for explaining bulgar. My mom hosted two Ukranian refugees who have since moved on, and they left behind a bunch of bulgar and other grains that they would regularly cook with, which she gave to me for my family. I had no idea what it was much less how to cook it, so thank you for helping me! AND I think my favorite part of the video are the stacked Lego pieces used to create the comparison graph between grains. 😆
Going to try some. I like that it is minimally processed and high in dietary fibre.
Enjoyed this video!
Looks so yummy! Can't wait to make it.😋
Looks so refreshing!
Exactly what I was looking for! Thank you!
Love how quick yet complete your videos are . Thanks!!
This is my everyday lunch now. Incredible!!! Thank you. So fast and nutritious.
Manufacturer soy milk is not healthy for maintaining healthy weight, it does not digest well your cell does absorb, it holds oxygen and the red cells thinks soy has been used and stores soy product after digestion as fat. To be used later by our energy consumption IT IS BEST TO MAKE YOUR SOY MILK AND AVOID THE ADDITIVE USED IN PROCESSING SOY MILK
Corn tortillas are traditionally used in making tacos... flour tortillas are used for making burritos.... I am confused about what you call a taco.
Love this! I am always looking for meat alternatives as I have a family history of Cancer so need to avoid BLV found in beef and the pesticides and Lead in all meat and fish. Thanks for sharing
Thank you for the video! I miss your class and love seeing these videos.
What a great idea to do this! I always end up with extra salt and pepper packets. To put together a packet of garlic salt, smoked paprika and onion powder would be very helpful.
"Promo SM" 🙋
That's a good idea❤
Looks great!

Sorry Al gore private jet turned me away from the climate change money making scam.
I wonder why, 800 whatever years ago the earth had 100 people we now have billions, now that we see where the problem is lets take warning lables away and let natural selection do its job
What a great technique until all of my skillets and pans are usable on induction
You induced so much warm current in my hearth with your magnetic explanation!
Nice puns~ Thanks so much!!
Thank you. That's the best explanation I've ever had for the induction cooktop.
Thanks so much for the feedback!
Count me in!
Yum! Going to try this out tonight!

Just bought some, worried about arsenic in my rice. Hope it tastes good.
So - how was it?
That was beautiful! My mouth is watering for some blueberries, so I can make that. Maybe on your trip here you’ll have to give me a treat. Good job!
Very helpful!!!
It is amazing how many great kitchen items are available! Love your videos!

Hi! I just came across your channel while learning with my two homeschool students about solar cookers. Watching your solar cooker demonstration had us all engaged! I love how animated you are; you seem to really love your field. Also, I love tacos, and cast iron, and lentils, so this video was amazing to me. Thanks for what you do!
I love it- "in the name of science" eat cake!! This needs to be a TV show!
Can't wait to try this recipe. It looks delicious!
Love it! Going to try this, keep up the good work and thank you for sharing again :) 🥰😍
You should check out some Chinese kitchen staples, like multi-storey steaming pots (stainless steel) and these steel grippers they have that can grab any plate from a steamer. I would post some links but I think UA-cam automatically deletes them. I love your idea to use the aluminum foil, so simple! So happy to have found your channel and website through the solar cooker demonstration you did for the Uni. Your optimism is contagious! ❤
Thank you for these great ideas and encouragement! I really appreciate it!
Dear teacher, I’m Pum from Thailand (TEA alumni 2017). I’m interested in food sustainable, hope to learn the useful ideas and inspire to action from you. Best regards. ❤️❤️❤️
Oh my! Pum! It is great to hear from you!! I hope you are doing well. Thanks for your encouragement. You are an amazing teacher!
