      @thenonexistinghero Рік тому +8

      Good chefs usually use a lot more butter and salt than what's recommended. What's recommended is usually healthier, of course... but if you're gonna make a dish for a special occassion, health should be the last thing on your mind. And well, that's besides the fact that salt and butter aren't as unhealthy as is generally claimed.

    2:16 "So, I'm gonna' poke some holes in the potato. I dunno' what it does. But I've always done that when I bake potatoes, and they come out okay!" What it does, is give the steam being created inside the potato as it bakes, somewhere to escape through. Without doing this-or giving it some other way of escaping-the steam will cause the potato to explode inside your oven.
