Straining a crêpe batter is insane, I have never done that, there was never a need to do that. And yes, the amout of bowls and containers is abs insane, so much of the good food gets wasted 😢
It must have been exhausting being a dishwasher in Thomas Keller's kitchen, since each dish would require the amount of kitchenware a home cook uses for an entire meal.
Of course that will require that much bowls and strainers, it's a Thomas Keller recipe the man is notorious for his intricate steps in creating a recipe.
FYI, there is a lot of lovely vanilla flavor left in those vanilla beans you used for the ice cream custard. Whenever you use vanilla beans, when done, bury the bean in a large jar of sugar. Add more beans as you use them. After a few weeks, you'll have a lovely vanilla sugar, excellent for coffee, sprinkled on cookies or crepes, etc. As you use the sugar, keep refilling the jar, and you'll have good vanilla sugar for several years. Eventually, the beans will lose their flavor, and you'll want to start over. If you have a lot of beans, jars of vanilla sugar make good gifts, especially if you provide directions to refill the sugar whenever the level drops to 2/3 full.
When I started to make swedish cookies in US I was perplexed in not findinf vanillasugar in the store. In Sweden they sell confectioneers sugar with vanilla flavour in it in a regular jar. :)
Question for you: Did you mean the pods? Now that I know this, I may finally feel that buying vanilla bran is worth the high price.....especially since I always thought it was "use once and done."
@@suran396 Yes, once you have scraped out the contents (which contain the most intense flavour), this is how my mom (and myself and everyone I know) always use the “leftover” empty pod, though usually not for recipes where you boiled it along with its contents. If you already boiled it, it may not have that much flavour left, of course. And the moisture it has soaked up be a bit of a hassle, though the sugar will probably soak it up, but I’d say even that’s worth experimenting with. After all, the worst case scenario is having to discard a bit of sugar, second best/worst case is that it only gives a bit of vanilla flavour. Hardly something that doesn’t make it worth the try.
"How am I supposed to make a banana split under these circumstances?" Ahh, the age old question that all the greats must ask at some point in their careers 😂 ❤
This was a tour de force! And while the dessert looks and sounds (and surely tastes) incredible, I question the enormous amount of in-between washing-up of the "bowling downpour" (I counted 10), glass jugs (8), strainers (3 plus 1 tamis), spatulas (4), measuring cups, pastry scrapers, whisks, (wooden) spoons, saucepans, squeeze bottle, piping bag and nozzle, ice cream scoop, miscellaneous utensils like knives, offset spatula, frying pan, ladle...... not forgetting Steve (formerly known as Whiz Kid and Pulsator) - twice, immersion blender and beaker, "Whitey Ford" with her 3 elements (the connection between a gelato machine and baseball is unclear at this stage) and the wiping and/or scrubbing of the wooden board at least 4 times during this episode. These videos take so much more than cooking, filming and editing. I for one hugely appreciate the hard work (and unwitting humour)
Agree! Having experience with day-to-day basic life cooking... all i can think about is all the washing and cleaning up that Jamie has to do in each video. He makes it look easy in the video but he don't fool me haha...I know he works super hard behind the scenes! lol. Not to mention the delightful editing he does.
Ok I’m officially sold. I’m putting TK’s book on my wish list. It’s so nice of Julia to keep dropping you bowls from heaven, even though you’ve moved on to other Chefs. She must be so proud of you! 😄
Next time you make an ice cream I’d suggest making it first and allowing it to fully freeze while prepping the other components. You could also do it the day before. The big issue is commercial ice cream freezers actively freeze and maintain subzero temps while churning. Home gamer “freezers” don’t. You still need to finish it in the ice box after so it’s firmer than soft serve. This recipient seems like it’s made for a production kitchen so a slight adjustment is okay. All the flavors were still there and it sounds amazing.
I have the same ice cream maker. You definitely need to freeze the ice cream overnight if you want to be able to scoop it. Also take the custard and refrigerate it fully. You can even put in the freezer for an hour before churning. The closer the custard is to freezing before you churn will keep the tub cold longer.
Jamie, you've gotta remember the photos in cook books aren't the actual foods because they melt. As far as when he serves in his restaurant, he's got super deep freezers to solidify dishes before being served. We saw the vision and your tummy doesn't care what it looks like. 🤩
Honey, you have got to allow your ice cream to ripen for at least four hours in the freezer. Put wax paper on the surface to keep its quality as it firms up. But thank you for making one of my favorite Thomas Keller desserts. And don’t forget the incredible recipe on page 313 to honor Sally Schmitt. That is one worth doing for a video!
You bring me great joy when you decide to use a new appliance with us. Reminds me of my husband who doesn't really read instructions until he is in the thick of it.😆
"Where's that freaking cherry?!" Just DYING! 😂😂😂 That looks incredible! The whole time, though, I was thinking that's an unusually large dessert for a bougie gourmet restaurant.
Hello, I’m enjoying your journey into the culinary world. Just a touch of advise from a pastry chef… take a dampened kitchen towel, shape it into a ring (doughnut) onto your cutting board or counter and place your bowl into the center. This will stabilize your bowl when you need to temper your eggs.
This is one of those times where the UA-cam algorithmn actually does something good. Got recommended one of your other TK recipe videos and loved it, every one I've watched since has been golden. As someone who professes to be a dab hand in a kitchen, you put me to shame, and you're proper friendly as well. Great work.
Great job! You truly appreciate how unbelievable a chef like Thomas Keller and his team are when you try and recreate something, then realize just how hard it is to do it on their level. Definitely want to try this.
"How am I supposed to make a banana split under these conditions" just tickled my funny bone for some reason. Man, I hope you get your own show on the Food Network or something. This channel is gold.
One of my best memories of Banana Split, was this old-fasioned restaurant (closed after a huge fire...😒), with my kids (for almost 30 years ago) at their birthdays. The Banana Split was so huge, even adults had problems eating one. Easy made too.... 1/2 banana, then 3 different icecreams (vanilla, chocolate and strawberry), then whipped cream with cherries on top, and last ones 2 different sauces (chocolate and strawberry). Happy times! ❤
I love every time you mention the tamis (which I think you should name Tammy) because my favorite movie of all time is Babette’s Feast and there’s a brief conversation about a tamis because there’s a language barrier between a danish speaking character and a French speaking character
Little hint for you when chopping chocolate, especially if it's a thicker block. Use a bread knife, and lever it the way you would with a kitchen knife. It just destroys chocolate with no effort at all. Watch your fingers though, since it'll do the same to them.
Hi Jamie, I just love your show, and you! You make me laugh and worry all at the same time. I am 70 years old, love to cook when I have folks to cook for. I was raised by my grandparents who raised their children during the depression. So, I had to comment when on this episode you called the fridge, "the ice box", which is what I grew up knowing it as. You are such fun! Please keep up the great work you do; OH and who drops the bowls from above for you??? Your fan and friend, Maggy B - Mitchell South Dakota, USA.
The Vanilla Bean Incident will live forever in the minds of all your subscribers around the world who shrieked "NOO0000!" into their screens. But for me, the hail of ice cubes just cracks me up. A Soupy Sales-style moment (some of you may remember)
1) I feel like the soft banana and vanilla coulda put right through the tamis or the strainer, without putting it through a blender first. The fibres and the vanilla pod would've stayed in the tamis, anyway. 2) You can add a few table spoons of salt to the ice-water bath - it lowers the freezing point, so the bowl stays cooler longer.
Your new Thomas Keller chapter is having an interesting effect: Where your Adventures With Julia was entertaining and informative, it did not make me wish I’d kept my Art Of French Cooking, far from it. On the other hand, where I never really had any interest in trying the rarified cooking of Thomas Keller, you make him seem quite accessible and the end results seem to be well worth the effort.
I'm obsessed with your channel. I don't even like cooking, I can't cook anything advanced since I live in the dorm, but man, I've been binge-watching your videos for two months and they are always so entertaining and interesting. Good job
Great video! I am soo glad you got an ice cream maker! I bought one on sale 6 months ago and have used it at least once a week to make so many different flavors. Best purchase I've ever made on a whim! Keep up the awesome work!
I get so happy whenever I see an upload from you because it's guaranteed to be a good time! It's so wonderfully chaotic, full of heart and so damn entertaining!
As delicious as it looks, thank you for making it completely clear why I happily pay $25.00 for a dessert like this on our anniversary. Bravo! Although, I kind of miss the disasters like the vanilla bean debacle. Great video. Thanks!
Looks wonderful! For those who don't want to have to store an ice cream maker like that, there's an accessory package for the Silver Fox that has a freezer bowl and dasher that is very similar to the one you used. My father always claimed the banana split was the best dessert ever invented. I often serve it at dinner parties because I agree (though I've never made one this fancy).
Gosh, you are so funny and passionate. Thanks for the great humor and slick editing. Even your music edits are on point. Such an all around first rate talent.
Somehow it's only June & I'm already getting excited for your annual ranking of this year! You've grown so much! Crazy to think what a mid-year review would look like and how it would stand up at the end of this year 👀 also wow this looks truly beautiful
I have really been enjoying this channel. It makes me want to challenge myself a bit in the kitchen. And as much as I don't like banana's I really wanna try this recipe.
Loved the attempt to remove some of the lemon juice- and the success of it! The desperation to get a good shot as the ice cream ran away from the camera made me smile.
Thanks for clarifying the deepest lore on the kitchen appliances. As a deep lore aficionado I can only hope the lore eventually becomes deep enough that we have to create a wiki to track it.
tip: when you're scooping ice cream and it won't come off the scooper, rub your hand on the back of the scoop to heat it up and the ice cream will fall right off
The short chord machines, turn them upside down, there’s usually more cable tucked and looped underneath and clipped in place, so you can pick your cable length without a too-long chord looped around on your counter looking a mess and getting in the way, and for easier putting away without the chord knocking everything over when you take it out of the cupboard.
You ought to buy B. Dylan Hollis' "Baking Yesteryear". It's full of old recipes from the 1920s through the 1980s. Being 60, I was raised on these types of foods, and still make them. My recipes are similar, but original from my grandmothers and mother.
I have that ice cream maker-- it is relatively inexpensive, and just perfect. I like mine so much, that I got a second bowl to keep in the freezer so that I can make 2 different batches of 2 different flavours.
For the moment that they were intact, they were beautiful ! I could just taste this ... the cold, creamy banana ice cream, the luscious whipped cream, the smooth chocolate sauce ... another masterpiece, Jamie ! Bravo !!
With the leftover crepes you could take some vanilla pudding, add crushed pieces pistachios to it, roll it up - and they're delicious! Sprinkle with powdered chocolate.
Chef Jamie you’ve come a long way over the years, and this episode was a gem of fine workmanship. So - just once can you do a video where ALL your ingredients, cookware, etc drop from the ceiling guy?
Raw eggs, glass jars of food, grapes, coffee beans in a paper bag that explodes, cherry tomatoes... The opportunities for hilarity and disaster are endless!
So glad every time you post. It always makes my day. Great video!! You will be extremely successful (you already are) but I see you doing as well as Babish!
Jamie,You are NOT alone I did that to my first vanilla bean and the look on your face was a fond memory LOL Again another Super video and Thank You for bringing out the emulsifier Id forgot about those( advise dont use it for mixing powdered sugar fondant 😐😭) This is another recipe I'm tryin. Thank You Still waiting on the Anti-Chef Aprons
Oh man, this episode had everything, loved it. The recipe, process and result looked just luxuriously delicious. TK so earned his reputation for making amazing and creative food. Crepes as bananas, how fun is that. Super ap-peel-ing. Plus what a good challenge and the recipe is right there in this vid description. I did appreciate that description Jaimie gave at the end. The banana split was a dessert that took you back to a good time and place, reliving an awesome feeling. That is a rare thing with most food. This was another special dish. Jaimie is getting better at making the food feel more real to us viewers with how he talks about it. When he's happy with the result, you can tell. It's got to be double satisfying (post scarfing it down) to know you were able to successfully make every component and get that result. Sure it got a touch messy in the end, but we all got it. A good messy is more real life, tho it's perfectly understandable to want that perfect result to show off those cooking abilities especially in this format. It's the metaphorical cherry on top of being proud. It still looked delicious and the work showed. Life don't have to be perfect to be amazing. Jaimie's skills were so on point for everything. Editing was noticeably super clean af. Everyone knows or should know how time consuming that part really can be. No one really likes the editing process in content creation. Bowl edits are just a delight, won't take them for granted. Cooking skills, I mean those crepes looked pretty much perfect. It's like riding a bike at this point, but that is the result of a lot of work for Jaimie to get to that skill level. For the most part, everything looked smooth in how Jaimie went through every step of the recipe. There was so much confidence here. Awesome. Whitey Ford, the ice cream machine. Welcome to the Team. That name made me laugh, It's perfect. Unfortunate about the Tamis sieve, that probably works better when you have a team of underlings who's only job is to sift everything. Coincidentally I've been on an ice cream kick this past week, lol. I could practically smell the banana and vanilla through the screen. Perfect timing for this recipe for me anyway... And yes there is a story. Last week I was working away, pulling off the freeway. I was literally thinking..."Is there someplace I can get a banana shake? I haven't had nanners in a while, I'm craving that taste...ah well, no rush, I'll look it up later" Yeah....I'm in southern California, and that classic event happened...the near ending of a high speed chase right around me. I thought he was some angy idiot who almost hit me going way too fast, so fast he was fishtailing and then spun out at the bottom of the ramp. I had swerved hard to avoid getting hit and was slowing down cause the dude was blocking traffic. And then police sirens were heard, and flashing lights in my rear view mirror. They whipped around me too and pulled up on the dude's car. I had stopped and ended up way too close for comfort or my heart. And things happened less than a hundred feet away: police "items" were drawn and pointed, yelling orders commenced, squealing tires eventually happened. Didn't see everything cause it was best to get as low as possible. And then they all took off again. Yay. Long story short, I got my banana ice cream as soon as I could after all that. Nerves fried, instantly sweaty, and thinking...you never know what could happen, imma get my treat. That's my advice, take some moments to just enjoy life. It's worth it. Food, fun, a sunset, a smile, heck a Jaimie video.
Trivial suggestion ('cause you get bombarded) - a trio of funnels in small, medium, & large sizes would be handy....like, I don't know...maybe if you had to pour chocolate sauce into a squeeze bottle. 😉🤭 Love your show. ❤
Looks fabulous, sliding cherries included! Loved banana splits as a kid. The only thing missing for me was the pineapple in a traditional banana split. Wish I could have a taste!!
And the strawberries. The toppings were always hot fudge, strawberry sauce, and pineapple sauce in my neck of the woods. I'm pondering a version of this but with a strawberry ice cream perhaps.
I'm somewhat surprised at how fun it still is to watch these now that you know what you're doing. I agree that it's time to drop the "ANTI", but you're famous, now, so it's become a brand, not a description. Re: Ice cream maker. I have a cheap plastic, battery operated one that you just turn on and throw in freezer. It's done when the weak little motor cannot turn the paddle any longer. For the once-a-year that I make ice cream, it's great.
You know, short cords for kitchen appliances are actually a safety measure. Long cords are more likely to dangle, where they can become entangled in the appendages of passerby, thus pulling sharp elements and/or scalding contents all over, say, heretofore enthusiastic toddlers. At least if you use an extension cord, the liability no longer rests with the appliance manufacturer. (According to the lawyers.)
Jamie making a banana split while it sounds like the purge is taking place outside is a whole mood.
😆😆😆
I will never get tired of The Vanilla Bean Incident. (Love you!)
Never forget… 😂
Do you remember what recipe video it was? I want to share it with a friend who is now growing vanilla beans.
It’s like the Calvin and Hobbs Noodle incident. It’s ever present

I know, right?! I just kept thinking I've done four course dinners for six that didn't use up that much cookware. Damn!
I was thinking that too! Lots of toys to make this dessert, but it looks sooooo worth it 🤤
Of course that will require that much bowls and strainers, it's a Thomas Keller recipe the man is notorious for his intricate steps in creating a recipe.
Yes! Sometimes it seems like there’s so much transferring of a mixture that it must lose a significant portion of its volume by the time it’s done.
Yeah, after the 4th or 5th bowl, I figured the difference in taste between this and a traditional banana split would be negligible. 🙂
Jamie's Canadian accent becomes that much more apparent when he says the word "out" 5 times in quick succession lmao
@Turbovec Americans are the ones with the accent:-)
@@DaniElle25g *everyone* has the type of accent that they have??

grind the dryed vanilla beans in a coffegrinder and mix it with the vanilla sugar for more extra flavor
You can also put them in a bottle of brandy to make vanilla extract.

This was a tour de force!

Remember that this is typically made in a busy kitchen with at least one dedicated dishwasher person and lots of staff making the different parts.
I know, I do not have enough room in my house for all of this equipment! Not to mention affording it! But love watching Jaime go through this process❤
Ok I’m officially sold. I’m putting TK’s book on my wish list. It’s so nice of Julia to keep dropping you bowls from heaven, even though you’ve moved on to other Chefs. She must be so proud of you! 😄

I'm obsessed with your channel. I don't even like cooking, I can't cook anything advanced since I live in the dorm, but man, I've been binge-watching your videos for two months and they are always so entertaining and interesting. Good job
Came home and settled into this after a rough day. Thank you for the wonderful escape! Did the trick!
Great video! I am soo glad you got an ice cream maker! I bought one on sale 6 months ago and have used it at least once a week to make so many different flavors. Best purchase I've ever made on a whim! Keep up the awesome work!
I get so happy whenever I see an upload from you because it's guaranteed to be a good time! It's so wonderfully chaotic, full of heart and so damn entertaining!
As delicious as it looks, thank you for making it completely clear why I happily pay $25.00 for a dessert like this on our anniversary. Bravo! Although, I kind of miss the disasters like the vanilla bean debacle. Great video. Thanks!
I like Whiz Kid, too. Maybe the machine can just have multiple nicknames?
Or just Steve the Whiz Kid?
Looks wonderful! For those who don't want to have to store an ice cream maker like that, there's an accessory package for the Silver Fox that has a freezer bowl and dasher that is very similar to the one you used. My father always claimed the banana split was the best dessert ever invented. I often serve it at dinner parties because I agree (though I've never made one this fancy).
Love that you call them ‘Nanners
U have no idea of the empathy that I'm feeling right now. You're my spirit animal!
Gosh, you are so funny and passionate. Thanks for the great humor and slick editing. Even your music edits are on point. Such an all around first rate talent.
Somehow it's only June & I'm already getting excited for your annual ranking of this year! You've grown so much! Crazy to think what a mid-year review would look like and how it would stand up at the end of this year 👀 also wow this looks truly beautiful
A 27-bowl recipe! And a heap of sieves 👍🤣🤣🤣🤣
I have really been enjoying this channel. It makes me want to challenge myself a bit in the kitchen. And as much as I don't like banana's I really wanna try this recipe.
Try making the ice cream with something you do like. Maybe pineapple?
@@Allikattoo ooo that does sound pretty dope
since you seem conflicted about the pronunciation, I will note that in Italian >ch< is pronounced /k/ -- hence /maer I ski no/
I will never again scrape out the seeds from a vanilla bean without thinking of you Jamie!😂
How do they vacuum and drop bowls to you at the same time?
Loved the attempt to remove some of the lemon juice- and the success of it!
The desperation to get a good shot as the ice cream ran away from the camera made me smile.
Thanks for clarifying the deepest lore on the kitchen appliances. As a deep lore aficionado I can only hope the lore eventually becomes deep enough that we have to create a wiki to track it.
tip: when you're scooping ice cream and it won't come off the scooper, rub your hand on the back of the scoop to heat it up and the ice cream will fall right off
The short chord machines, turn them upside down, there’s usually more cable tucked and looped underneath and clipped in place, so you can pick your cable length without a too-long chord looped around on your counter looking a mess and getting in the way, and for easier putting away without the chord knocking everything over when you take it out of the cupboard.
You ought to buy B. Dylan Hollis' "Baking Yesteryear". It's full of old recipes from the 1920s through the 1980s.
Being 60, I was raised on these types of foods, and still make them. My recipes are similar, but original from my grandmothers and mother.
I have to watch you every day just to keep my sanity 😅 don't ever quit!
The person that vacuums upstairs, he or she is the person that throws you the bowls ❤
The "Vanilla Bean Incident" never gets old 😆
I have that ice cream maker-- it is relatively inexpensive, and just perfect. I like mine so much, that I got a second bowl to keep in the freezer so that I can make 2 different batches of 2 different flavours.
That’s an excellent idea. Were you able to buy the bowl separately?
You have grown a lot and it's been a pleasure to watch. Your channel is amazing; keep up the good work
For the moment that they were intact, they were beautiful ! I could just taste this ... the cold, creamy banana ice cream, the luscious whipped cream, the smooth chocolate sauce ... another masterpiece, Jamie ! Bravo !!
Ceiling god is really stepping up his game, sending infinite strainers and ice and even chilled bowlz!
With the leftover crepes you could take some vanilla pudding, add crushed pieces pistachios to it, roll it up - and they're delicious! Sprinkle with powdered chocolate.
whiz kid is the perfect name but I respect it
this looks amazing
the slow culmination of more and more dirty dishes, I felt that
Chef Jamie you’ve come a long way over the years, and this episode was a gem of fine workmanship. So - just once can you do a video where ALL your ingredients, cookware, etc drop from the ceiling guy?
Raw eggs, glass jars of food, grapes, coffee beans in a paper bag that explodes, cherry tomatoes...
The opportunities for hilarity and disaster are endless!
@@uleubnerJust .... flour. Flour alone could.make an ungodly mess!
Great video as always seeing you upload makes me so happy
So glad every time you post. It always makes my day. Great video!! You will be extremely successful (you already are) but I see you doing as well as Babish!
The Silver Fox has many attachment options like an ice cream maker. You use the power hub in the front.
Jamie,You are NOT alone I did that to my first vanilla bean and the look on your face was a fond memory LOL Again another Super video and Thank You for bringing out the emulsifier Id forgot about those( advise dont use it for mixing powdered sugar fondant 😐😭) This is another recipe I'm tryin. Thank You Still waiting on the Anti-Chef Aprons
Steve Machine, like Steve McQueen. Love it.
Thank you Jamie! You’re so entertaining. There’s so little to laugh at these days. You’re pure joy. 💕
Oh man, this episode had everything, loved it. The recipe, process and result looked just luxuriously delicious. TK so earned his reputation for making amazing and creative food. Crepes as bananas, how fun is that. Super ap-peel-ing. Plus what a good challenge and the recipe is right there in this vid description.
I did appreciate that description Jaimie gave at the end. The banana split was a dessert that took you back to a good time and place, reliving an awesome feeling. That is a rare thing with most food. This was another special dish. Jaimie is getting better at making the food feel more real to us viewers with how he talks about it.
When he's happy with the result, you can tell. It's got to be double satisfying (post scarfing it down) to know you were able to successfully make every component and get that result. Sure it got a touch messy in the end, but we all got it. A good messy is more real life, tho it's perfectly understandable to want that perfect result to show off those cooking abilities especially in this format. It's the metaphorical cherry on top of being proud. It still looked delicious and the work showed. Life don't have to be perfect to be amazing.
Jaimie's skills were so on point for everything. Editing was noticeably super clean af. Everyone knows or should know how time consuming that part really can be. No one really likes the editing process in content creation. Bowl edits are just a delight, won't take them for granted.
Cooking skills, I mean those crepes looked pretty much perfect. It's like riding a bike at this point, but that is the result of a lot of work for Jaimie to get to that skill level. For the most part, everything looked smooth in how Jaimie went through every step of the recipe. There was so much confidence here. Awesome.
Whitey Ford, the ice cream machine. Welcome to the Team. That name made me laugh, It's perfect. Unfortunate about the Tamis sieve, that probably works better when you have a team of underlings who's only job is to sift everything.
Coincidentally I've been on an ice cream kick this past week, lol. I could practically smell the banana and vanilla through the screen. Perfect timing for this recipe for me anyway... And yes there is a story.
Last week I was working away, pulling off the freeway. I was literally thinking..."Is there someplace I can get a banana shake? I haven't had nanners in a while, I'm craving that taste...ah well, no rush, I'll look it up later"
Yeah....I'm in southern California, and that classic event happened...the near ending of a high speed chase right around me. I thought he was some angy idiot who almost hit me going way too fast, so fast he was fishtailing and then spun out at the bottom of the ramp. I had swerved hard to avoid getting hit and was slowing down cause the dude was blocking traffic. And then police sirens were heard, and flashing lights in my rear view mirror.
They whipped around me too and pulled up on the dude's car. I had stopped and ended up way too close for comfort or my heart. And things happened less than a hundred feet away: police "items" were drawn and pointed, yelling orders commenced, squealing tires eventually happened. Didn't see everything cause it was best to get as low as possible. And then they all took off again. Yay.
Long story short, I got my banana ice cream as soon as I could after all that. Nerves fried, instantly sweaty, and thinking...you never know what could happen, imma get my treat. That's my advice, take some moments to just enjoy life. It's worth it. Food, fun, a sunset, a smile, heck a Jaimie video.
Trivial suggestion ('cause you get bombarded) - a trio of funnels in small, medium, & large sizes would be handy....like, I don't know...maybe if you had to pour chocolate sauce into a squeeze bottle. 😉🤭
Love your show. ❤
i'm with mona gonzalez on this one -- "stevie mix" is the best name i've heard so far!
genius
So many bowls!! The dishes afterwards would drive me nuts!
Hint- have a cup of hot water nearby when scooping icecream - after every scoop dip in hot water and wipe before next scoop. Voila - easy scoop.
Yes! Banana 🍌 anything!
Amazing video! As always so fun to watch. But the 8 min apple ad, THAT WAS NONE SKIP, killed the vibe.
Looks fabulous, sliding cherries included! Loved banana splits as a kid. The only thing missing for me was the pineapple in a traditional banana split. Wish I could have a taste!!
And the strawberries. The toppings were always hot fudge, strawberry sauce, and pineapple sauce in my neck of the woods. I'm pondering a version of this but with a strawberry ice cream perhaps.
I'm somewhat surprised at how fun it still is to watch these now that you know what you're doing. I agree that it's time to drop the "ANTI", but you're famous, now, so it's become a brand, not a description.
Re: Ice cream maker. I have a cheap plastic, battery operated one that you just turn on and throw in freezer. It's done when the weak little motor cannot turn the paddle any longer. For the once-a-year that I make ice cream, it's great.
I am revelling in the French Laundry series!!! My fav so far!!
I love this series. Please bring tk back in the future!
The Vanilla Bean incident clip never gets old! 🤣
My cocker spaniel barked with your neighbour's cocker spaniel. They are a coven, a mafia, designed to make us crazy. (but they are such good dogs ❤)
This recipe calls for at least 1 more bowl to be perfection! 😂
I applaud your commitment to a bit. 👏 👏
Looks so delicious! Fantastic video, as always!
Looks fantastic. Been binging your videos for the past few days lol.
You know, short cords for kitchen appliances are actually a safety measure. Long cords are more likely to dangle, where they can become entangled in the appendages of passerby, thus pulling sharp elements and/or scalding contents all over, say, heretofore enthusiastic toddlers.
At least if you use an extension cord, the liability no longer rests with the appliance manufacturer. (According to the lawyers.)
Hahaha I remember that vanilla bean incident lol 😅😂 threw it all out lol love it
