LOL i love how supportive he is, not out right telling you it's bad but describing why it is not good
😆😆😆. But it was really really good. Banana Blossom. Like who would of thought
Mikey and Chris with Lauren.. come on.. how good is that. Mike is so loving to you. I love it. The banana flower.. how neat.
🤗🤗 Thanks Kim
i always add miyoko’s butter to my fish marinades. it adds a really important fattiness to the taste.
good call!
Yay! I love when you do test kitchen. Glad the canned version was better, because it will probably be way easier to find. And btw Lauren, you look so happy! Glad life seems to be treating you well ♥️♥️
You can dice the fresh one and saute it and then use it for fishless cakes or crebless cakes. So the frest blossoms can be used that way. I do it oftent
This looks so interesting! I love how creative vegan food can be. 😄
Very intriguing, and pretty too the blossom! Thanks for another awesome vid Lauren
I love your raw honesty so much! That tempura batter looked 🔥🔥🔥. I have both your cookbooks so I'll be making that very soon!
Chris and Lauren in the same location?!!!! What a great surprise 🤯
I thought so, too! We, even got Mike & Snickles. The only (1) was Stevie😚 Blessings & love to ALL, Piper
Stevie wasnt here yet hahaha
Oooooh I need to try this! And your tarter sauce is my go-to!!
I got to try banana blossom ‘fish’ in Cornwall, England so I was excited for you to give this a go too!
I'm so glad you tried this. I've been skeptical as well lol
Hi just wanted to let you know Lauren that you are amazing and have such lovely energy!! Today was bad for me and I sat crying on the floor until I opened your channel. You always always get me in a better mood. Thanks for that💞❤
Oh wow! Thanks Magda! I know you've been here a while. Thanks for watching xo sending love
I love you!!!! I miss you! Your the best!
I'm from Northern England and fish and chips are a staple here! My local chip shop makes banana blossom fish and it's really good! Very excited to try and make it myself after watching this video! 👏
12:40 "is a fish bone?" lol that part me laugh 🤣🤣🤣
I’ve never seen banana blossoms before but I’m intrigued 🧐
Oooo great idea with the Kombucha, I never thought of that. I also hope Michael's arm heals soon!
he;s all good now :D
Gosh!!! I really loved this video.
From the music to every cut. I can't believe that you can eat this. It was so good lol. Guys like I ate all the food she made 😆😆😆
been following for years.. still love your channel. please don’t ever take down your old videos ♥︎
I never will of course :D
Yes, I get my banana blossom from my local Asian market. It is a great alternative to using hearts of palm. I prefer the can blossoms better IMO.
Searched randomly on my phone at 5am for Banana Blossom UK fish’n’chips - and stayed because I was so intrigued, educated and entertained by the chef/cook/presenter. Love how she seemed to research so much, used both canned and fresh, was so knowledgeable, and just had such a damn natural delivery. You deserve 1m subs seriously…
awww thanks!
I used to watch you all the time good to see you again. I’ve been curious about this blossom fish. I ‘ve watched several others make it but they seem to skip over talking about the texture. I had to see what you think of it you tell it like it is. So I’m that much closer to trying this now. Thanks for the tips. I’ll go buy your book.
thanks for watching!!!
Looks good✨✨✨
Interesting....Will try soonnnn
Sure 😊 Hope you love it!
Wow
I need to try this! Let us know if you figure out a way to get rid of the astringent taste in the fresh banana flower 🙂
Love him, you both have a great work chemistry. 🙏
You and Chris should do more videos together! Loved the cameo!
🤗🤗🙏🏽 Thanks.
Ya hear that L. Boogie 😁😁🙌🏾
something comin up soon!
Brilliant video 🤗excellent job☺️🤩thanks for share
Thanks for visiting
😂 The taste testing was so fun
Could you blanch the fresh one in salt water? And maybe use some dashi in the blanching liquid?
You are so clever in the kitchen, Lauren…you seemed to be very close to getting this right! I’ve wanted to try this recipe…and I’m glad you told us about that bad brand of banana blossoms, because that’s the one that my vegan grocery sells…now, I won’t have to waste my money.
I am late to the banana blossom party too Lauren. Great video and banana blossom test 👌Love 🥰the video and love 💕Hot for food and love 💞 Lauren Toyota.
Thank you! 🤗
So interesting!
From just the thumbnail pic, I seriously thought this was a vegan chicken wing recipe! Looks so good and cant wait to try this out. Thank You!!!
Hope you like it!
Lauren, I live in a tiny community in NB, Canada and have a hard time getting stuff like the banana blossoms, so could you use hearts of palm? Will the hearts of palm soak up a marinate?
I would use artichokes instead..
I had this from a local food truck in SoCal (original herbivore) and it was BOMB 😩
I can’t tell you it tasted like fish or not bc I honestly never liked fish lol but it was good as it’s own thing
I have no idea what banana blossom tastes like, but based on the texture, maybe treat the fresh ones like an artichoke (?) Like, maybe blanche it in some boiling water for a few minutes to get rid of some of the astringency. Or even leaving it soaking in lemon water for a few hours and changing the water a couple of times. I don't know, but I feel like it's a vegetable with a lot of room for improvement :)
I swear I'm subscribed so how am I just finding out about this video? Anyway, I love how honest and skeptical she is about vegan trends. Just adding my comment and a like to help boost the youtube algorithm.
thanks Pat! hahaha
Oh no I've got a very expired Nature's charm can in my drawer lol. But thanks for the inspiration, hope my can will turn out ok haha!
I concur. That nature brand. I HATED I have had the last can for like a year. Probably need to check the expiration now.
CHRIIIS!! Miikey!! Haha such an awesome vid! Lovely to get a few in on the taste test. I doubt I’ll ever make this personally - have yet to see a banana blossom out here in Nova Scotia - but love the votes. If I ever spot it on a vegan menu I’ll def try! 🌱🙏🦋
15:42 I ask myself that exact same question for so many food items... like eggs 😂
Nice....... Maybe the fresh blossom needed more soaking in the liquid....... And thyme and garlic always help to give an extra fish taste..... I am going to make this whenever a blossom comes on our banana trees... Give Thanks!
IT LOOKD GREAT IT COULD PASS AS FISH
Lol. I just used the can of banana blossoms that have been sitting in my pantry forever. I made crab cakes. They were ok.
make my artichoke crab cakes!! so good!
@@hotforfood that's what gave me the idea! And I think the artichokes will taste better than banana blossom.
If you make your own sparkling water with plain water in a soda stream- it’s not club soda. It’s just sparking water. Club soda has salt and or minerals added to it, giving it a distinct taste different from sparkling water.
Hi Lauren, Oh My Goodness! What happened with Mike? I hoping & praying for his speedy Recovery! I hope his also, not in any pain!? I broke My Ankle on Christmas Eve 2019 & it's NOT FUN! This looks good! Chris, what a nice surprise ❤😘Hug's & Kisses to Snickles & Stevie ❤😘 Blessings & love to ALL, Piper
he's ok now. He broke his hand, but its better! xox
@@hotforfood Lauren, I am glad to hear Mike, is Healing & Recovering nicely ❤😘 Hug's & Kisses to Snickles & Stevie❤😘 Blessings & love to ALL,
Piper
I made this but I use fish fry batter
Did you add seaweed
totally just read banana fish and clicked for the BL
years ago you shared carrot hot dogs and this is like the sequel 😂
haha
Maybe a vegan buttermilk soak with the fishy seasonings might soften it up & give some of the creaminess… 🤔
We cook with fresh. We use it for pan fry. With ginger, garlic, chilli, salt and a lot of Oil. You need fat to get rid of the bitterness. We also eat the core of Banan plant ( banana is a plant not a tree). Everything that comes out of a banana plant is useful in the kitchen ( not always edible tho). And your "fresh blossom" doesn't look fresh. The small flowers are suppose to be White and full of nectar. It looked black in the video. Which means it's been few days since it's been picked.
I've tried making this a long while ago..... but the blossoms where to soft and falling apart.... I'll try it again
from canned or fresh blossom?
@@hotforfood they were canned....I don't remember the brand....but it wasn't that great to work with.
you have to boil the fresh one first
You need to brine the fresh banana blossom for 4-5 days before eating it or else it's super bitter!
ain't no body got time for that! lol
You need more seaweed. I made it for my vegan son and he was so amazed that it tasted like fish. I used seaweed sheets they taste like fish.
that batter was THICCCC
ive never experimented with banana blossom just cos I have never found it in any stores near me!!!
Uptons sells a banana blossoms!
no waY!
I'm HUNGRY NOW
Canned banana blossom is boiled in brine. That's the step you missed
This is a no for me. I'll stick with bags of Gardein when the fish mood strikes.
I believe the artichoke works good for fish as well.
I like those too :)
Missing a squeeze of lemon after frying?? Like you might do with real fried fish
recipie???? lol
Lauren there are so many unhealthy things here I wouldn't even know where to start. The oil especially. You should never heat anything but unrefined coconut oil or flax oil. Why didn't you use tempura batter??
I think it's a lot of work for not a great product at the end!
It looks like fried chicken to me 😬😊
So we’re gonna just act like she didn’t bite it and put it back to prepare??? 🤭
I mean it is for her home and no one but her and her man are eating so…
She can do whatever she likes in her on home, lol.
@@MsRose00 I get it, but isn’t cooking 101 hygiene first… regardless of who you cook for? Did I miss something? Lol
@@tatianarod8194 Yeah, if you’re cooking in a restaurant or making food for others outside your home. I don’t see the big deal when cooking for your partner. I’m sure they have shared more than that. This entire topic is unnecessary on this level of intimacy. And neither of us are eating the food so…let’s move on. Have a good day. 🙂
@@MsRose00 Agree to disagree. Have a good day as well.
Fish isn't vegan! Fish is an animal species.
XD
@@annieaviles3169 There is no reason to mention "fish" when fish aren't included as an actual ingredient.
Gross 👁👄👁...
Can black guy be my friend 😍I’m black so I can say that
Wait.. is she pregnant??
How do you know someone is vegan? Don't worry, they barge into non Vegan restaurants in protest!
Bro this is a recipe video calm down
lol
