    Some people say that the finger indentations are to remind yourself how many turns you've completed but they also serve the purpose of intimidating the dough and giving it just a small taste of what's in store if it decides to turn snitch to the feds

    Dear Jamie, I’ve only tried Puff Pastry once in my 61 years. It came out light, buttery and beautiful. I stopped there and never did it again. The memory is wonderful. It took two days just like you. Cream, Creme Anglais, chocolate sauce. Delicious. No one ever realised how much sweat and anguish went into it. Never again….maybe. ❤️

    @michaeltres Рік тому +428

    Fantastic again. I haven't made jalousies in years, but they were always a hit at parties. The little "dimples" La Julia presses into the dough are to remind you of how many turns you've given the dough. It helps when you are making more than one batch or stepping away from the pastry for a while, so that when you come back, you'll be reminded where you are in the process. The idea behind the "cross hatchings" is to cut through a very few layers of the pastry so that the cooked surface will show off the puffiness. Neither step is mandatory, as you noticed. Great job!!

She made home-made Finnish cabbage rolls, mashed potatoes, - finnish food. I imagined my american friends were having hamburgers or spaghetti. My father excused me from the table and I though I WON!! Until breakfast the next morning and he served me a cold plate of Finnish cabbage rolls, mashed potatoes, etc. Years later, I called my Mom and asked for the recipe for....Finnish Cabbage Rolls! Because they are wonderful, you can't get them anyplace else..you have to MAKE THEM. My own daughter, at the age of 20 or so, called ME for the receipe. We make them together, with love, and remember my Mother.

The notes she made in the margins were especially useful. To this day, I have another old cookbook with my Grandmother's notes and mine alongside.

    I tried making this very puff pastry years ago. An audacious thing to do and well beyond my skill level, I thought. I followed the directions slavishly and if the dough gave any hint of getting loose and buttery, I stuck it back in the fridge and chilled out. When it was done, I made a nice set of apple turnovers and the results were spectacular. Try it! Don't be intimidated, and allow plenty of time. Bon appetit.

    A hen living on a farm finds some wheat and decides to make bread with it. She asks the other farmyard animals to help her plant it, but they refuse. The hen then harvests and mills the wheat into flour before baking it into bread; at each stage she again asks the animals for help and they refuse. Finally, with her task complete, the hen asks who will help her eat the bread. This time the animals accept eagerly, but the hen refuses them stating that no one helped her with her work and decides to eat the bread herself. She then runs away with..

    I usually make them with pastry cream or with apples. A version with sweet cream cheese and peaches is also a family favourite.

    Jamie, I discovered your channel a week ago and have been on a binge! Hands down my favourite cooking channel! I also have Julia's cookbook, enjoy cooking, but was always massively intimidated to try the recipes. You changed that! Thanks for the great content, you're one cool guy!

    Your Julia Child baking endeavors are such a journey that I feel like are truly and authentically shared with us. I can feel all the stress, the tears, the joy, the confusion, and the triumphs as you take on these challenges. I love how you try so hard to just follow the recipe, come what may. And that you're just yourself while you do it. Thank you for your efforts! So much fun to watch

    The reason for poking the dough with your fingers after each turn of folds is so you know how many turns you've already completed. It's a classic pastry technique especially if you're prepping a lot of puff pastry, it would be difficult to keep track of which piece has been turned and how many times. If your only doing one then its not really needed.

    i stumbled over your channel by accident really and started to watch the episodes from the beginning. hysterical content and a joy to watch!!!! your "evolution" over time is really gorgeous to observe. my love for cooking started with my grandmother at the age of maybe 4 years old so i had quite the headstart to many others. and you doing it all by yourself (ok, google and a book^^) is really impressive! it is proof that EVERYBODY can learn how to cook. and you have definetly some talent. my favorite thing is to watch your reaction when you taste what you created. ❤ i hope you keep doing the cooking around the world thing, too. be proud of yourself!

  • @roseh2171

    Great video! I really enjoyed it. I tell everyone who will listen to check our Anti-Chef!! I learn so much more watching a newbie blunder through a new recipe than I ever learn from watching a seasoned Pro. My oven tends to burn things on the bottom if I use the bottom rack. I think you would have gotten better results if you'd baked your peek-a-boos individually. Also, I think you might scale back on the amount of filling.
    Can you please try a Julia Child recipe for SCALLOPS? I've never tried her Coquille St. Jaques and I'd like to watch you attempt it. Like with so many Anti-Chef recipes, if Jaime can do it, I should be able to do it too!

  • @padebro2683
    @padebro2683 Рік тому

    Jamie, Julia would encourage you to use more flour on your surface to prevent risk to your dough. One of her guests taught me a wonderful trick! Buy a stainless steel shaker can about the size of a restaurant glass sugar jar. Put flour in the stainless can and you'll always have flour at the ready to quickly and easily add it where needed without getting it all over your hands. Yay for her guest!

    • @shaunavalon843
      @shaunavalon843 Рік тому

      I did some tricks with the pastry - I floured some plastic sheeting, then put the pastry between those sheets, folded the whole thing in half, then cut through the pastry and the plastic sheets with a scissors to make the lid - this seemed to be much easier, since the pastry was unable to stick to itself due to being layered in plastic sheeting.

    You know why I like you? Because you're not a very experienced cook. I've been dying watching you make puff pastry, you're giving me anxiety, but I think the internet needs more people like you posting their successes and failures for them to learn from. You make great content, you seem like a cool dude, keep making content like this. Posting your struggles and failures is incredibly helpful and useful to those learning to cook, and posting your successes gives us all hope :-) keep pushing yourself, you've got a fan here my friend, you just earned a sub. The more you challenge yourself (even if you fail), the more you help the rest of us learn and grow. You're quality, keep being quality

    • @davids7556

But then you said “out” and I was like, nope, he’s Canadian! Then I watched enough to figure it “out”….as someone who cooks/ bakes alot I am sincerely impressed with your progress! Very entertaining, I’m hooked! The Joy of Cooking was my first cookbook, still have it, still reference it regularly! Bon Appetite
