    Claire that type of plumbing torch isn't designed to work upside-down. The pressurized liquid propane inside the cylinder is supposed to boil off into a gas, and that gas flows up into the head to be burned, but when you turn it upside-down you get liquid propane trying to go through the head which mucks everything up and causes the flame to go out. That's why the kitchen torches have a 90-ish degree angle tip on them, so that you can aim the nozzle downward without tilting the bottle so far over. You can buy a different torch head with a sharper angle on the tip, or just use the torch you have at a lower angle so that the bottle isn't inverted, and you'll have a much better experience.

    My grandma used to measure her vanilla in “sloshes”. One “slosh” from her was meant to be a teaspoon, but was easily twice that. Everyone who ate her baking loved it, and I use her method in my own kitchen. I can only imagine what a slosh of that Heilala vanilla would bring to a baked good!!

  • @rtfmpeople
    @rtfmpeople Рік тому +22

    Oh boy, I'll have to try this one! Quick note: Your torch is going out because the liquid propane is choking out the flame... I have the same torch and you gotta keep it at a shallower angle to not have it die on you!

    In Laos and Thailand they actually make a coconut milk custard-filled kabocha that either gets steamed or baked! It gets sliced like a cake and you get a neat cross-section with orange pumpkin and golden custard.

    22:10 Oh, Claire! There’s a blowtorch not half a meter from you...😂...for anyone that is bothered by bubbles on the surface of any kind of custard, you can just torch them away (not that it matters visually here). Yes, you can skimm them or sieve them, but torching them gone is the quickest and the easiest way to do, and the most fun too. Mind you, you do have to own a blowtorch.😉

    Claire, a suggestion: rather than strain the custard into the eight ramekins one-by-one, which is laborious and time-consuming, pour the custard from the pan into a large strainer that's set into a Pyrex measuring cup. It has a spout and thus makes filling the ramekins a snap.

    For your next Q&A: This may be a bit morbid, but at 13:50 you said, "This is why I have bad wrists." Do you ever worry about carpal tunnel or repetitive stress disorder in your hands/wrists? I remember Paul Hollywood said he has carpal tunnel from so many years of kneading and mixing, but he's trying to put off surgery for as long as possible in case he isn't able to get strength back in hands. Hopefully this is never an issue for you, but I was wondering if it ever crossed your mind.
    P.S. Poor Harris. He gets yelled at for trying to cook bacon during the clam chowder recipe. Now all of the thick cut bacon is gone before he gets any. #bacon4harris

    I know this might be a stupid question but I'm a complete novice when it comes to baking. When you need eggs, butter, milk etc to be room temperature, how do you know that they are at room temperature ? Like, do you pull them out a few hours before you need them? And like, how long can they be out for before going bad?

Or added all the sugar into the pot with the milk and cream, waited for it to dissolve, and then tempered and added the yolks? Would love to hear your perspective, thanks for the great recipes!
