    Salmonberrys are native to the Seattle area (where concerned ape lived). They are a relative to blackberries, but have a much more mild taste and larger seeds. They ripen at the same time as the salmon are running, so we're often eaten together by Native Peoples, hence the name

    The reason a lot of recipes tell you to prick the base before baking is to let steam and air escape. The natural water in the dough ingredients becomes steam; no holes for the steam to escape can cause large air pockets/bubbles. It also affects texture.

    Baking major here. Poking the bottom of your blueberry tart is called docking. When blind baking like you did, it serves to prevent the dough on the bottom from expanding and puffing up unevenly by allowing steam to escape.

    I feel like that tortilla was almost perfect tbh. If you ever do that again, my tip would be the dough should have more water added, you basically want it to be wet enough to where it won't crack when you flatten it or press your finger into it, and to get the tortilla thinner, you press it once, get it loose from the parchment and press it again! Loving the series, I cant wait for the rest of it to come out, youre doing great!!

    Also, from the united states and the pepper poppers were very interesting to see! We grow jalapenos for ours. When I was a child my father would just stuff it with cream cheese/wrap it with bacon and bake, but nowadays we mix cream cheese with finely chopped sundried tomatoes, a bit of sundried tomato oil, and occasionally cheddar, and stuff the jalapenos without wrapping in bacon. Ive never breaded them, just throw them in the oven til the cheese has gotten brown on top and the pepper flesh is soft.
    I think its very funny that you cut the top and hollow a pepper. Ive seen folk do that with bell pepper dishes, though I want to say its a much more southern thing to hollow out pepper poppers. We usually cut a pepper length-wise, clear the seeds/spine, and then stuff them. Emphasis on the spine, since I believe that’s where most heat comes from. There’s a lot of variation in pepper poppers! Its always fascinating to see how others make them.

    Je trouve que la variété de piments verts que vous avez choisie aurait été mieux que les autres pour cuisiner des pepper poppers. Ils semblent d'être plus similaires à la sorte qu'on utilise ici pour les préparer (le jalapeño). Il est normale qu'ils soient un peu fins, s'ils sont trop petits on peut les couper en deux et les farcir comme ça. Le habanero est certainement trop épicé. Pauvre estomac ! Maudit soit Intermarché pour ne pas avoir plus de variétés de piments !

    Artichoke dip is a thing and I've personally seen it mean two things. A dip with a creamy base usually made with canned artichokes and tends to have pemintoes. Or it is a usually creamy based dip made for dipping artichoke in. You steam the whole artichoke until tender then dip the leaves in. In case you never ate steamed artichoke leaves you don't eat the whole thing. You bite down then pull the leave out, fltering the edible part out.

    I appreciate your stubborn insistence that mayo does not go in coleslaw. I appreciate it so much that I'll give you a few tips that I think are mostly cultural misinterpretations of recipes.
    Poppyseed muffins aren't muffins with poppyseed as a topping, but poppyseed mixed into the batter, most frequently a lemony one.
    Oh dear those pepper poppers.. Are jalapenos not available in your country? They would be the ideal candidate, but beyond those I'd try and fry an entire bell pepper before biting into one of those tiny little demons.
    Thickness was definitely an issue for the tortillas, but a big one that may have helped would be resting the dough. The masa needs time to hydrate, which is what keeps it from being so dry and crackly. I'm also making some educated guesses here and assuming you only had cornmeal available to you? It's doable, but it needs to be ground very fine. Once hydrated, it should almost behave like clay, and if lacking a press, you can always try and roll it out between two sheets of parchment.
    I don't think this one's a cultural thing, but as someone who works with sourdough regularly I find it hilarious and cute to watch you do stretch folds on a dry yeast risen dough. The effort is appreciated, but generally not necessary; commercial yeast will do it's thing well enough if left alone to rise. Stretch folds are a technique to help gluten development in doughs that use starter in place of yeast, and while that might be more authentic to the stardew experience, I will not begrudge anyone who wants to grab a packet of jojamart dry yeast instead. Wild yeast is a pain.

    a tip for folks who like to make sponge cakes! do NOT grease or use a non-stick pan, part of what makes sponge cake/angel food cakes so fluffy is their need to stick to the pan in order to rise more! since there is so little flour the cake is held up by the egg whites which is easy to be weighed down by the flour and sugar when heated :) it's super annoying but in my amateur bakers opinion it's worth investing in a specialty pan if you plan on making a shit ton of sponge/angel food cake (like me rip)

    I wonder if the pink cake would be better if you made melon jam or if you somehow incorporated melon into the cake batter? Since it's a secret ingredient it seems like it's more hidden... if you had melon-flavored candy or melon juice to baste the cake maybe that would have worked too. But I've never even heard of a melon cake before Stardew so I'm not sure how it could work. Super impressed that you made your own candy though!
    I love the iridium utensils! Also, 'censored by mayor lewis' made me laugh. Eggplant parm/lasagna and blueberry pie are things I've made myself before, although I usually cook blueberry filling down before adding it, so it's more firm and less watery/juicy. A little bit of lemon juice will really help make the berry flavor pop!

    The only thing I will say is please sharpen your knife! You should have been able to cut through the aubergines much easier, and it's safer to cut with a sharp knife!

    For the pepper poppers one, we have one here in the Philippines called dynamite and it's basically the same process but with a different chili and sometimes with lumpia wrappers
    We use green jalapenos for that one and it's good, however I legitimately made a sudden hiss the moment you used habaneros as a base

    fun! and that's exactly how i imagine an iridium tool looks like irl. also-i always thought the little red dots on the pink cake were cherries! i feel so bad that you had to go through all that effort to make them heart candies when you could have put something easier 😭 I would maybe even have just used some red icing for the dots, or big sprinkles. or store bought heart candies maybe? unless they weren't in season due to it not being valentines day..? either way, it turned out great anyway and i commend your efforts! : )

    For the Pink Cake, I would've gone in the direction of using the melon to flavor the whipped cream or as a syrup to soak the cakes, like what you used with the raspberry syrup. Adding whole melon slices like that would have been the last idea in my mind as firmer fruits don't do well as a filling in soft cakes. Otherwise kudos for going as far as to make your own hard candies, I would have opted the easy way to get heart shaped confection from a store to decorate.

    in regards to the peppers, its usually the white part or the pith of the inside of the pepper that contains most of the capsaicin, not the seeds. the misconception usually comes due to the fact that the seeds sit within or clost to this section. might help with future videos.

    • @uselessgamestuff

      There will not be any dish that consists of a bite-sized habanero chili, ever. But good to know! I usually keep the seeds and the whole chili in my stews and dishes because I really don't mind the heat, but here the chili-to-anything-else ratio was just too much

    Watermelon could be used as a substitute for cantaloupe! It would lend a better flavor and probably aid in complimenting the richer flavors of the cake and contributing to the color scheme.
