GRANDMA SJORSTROM'S RECIPE FOR PEANUT BLOSSOM COOKIES (slightly adapted by me)
Makes about 4 dozen cookies
14 oz package of Hershey's Kisses, unwrapped
3 1/2 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
2 cups sugar and a dab of molasses (or 1 cup white sugar and 1 cup brown sugar)
1 cup butter-flavored shortening (or 1/2 cup softened butter and 1/2 cup unflavored shortening)
1 cup peanut butter
2 eggs
4 tablespoons milk
2 teaspoons vanilla
sugar for coating
Pre-heat oven to 375 F. Cream sugar and fats, then mix in all the other ingredients except for the chocolates. Form dough into 1-inch balls and roll them in a bowl of sugar before placing them on parchment-lined baking sheets. They won't spread much, so you should get at least a dozen per sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes, until they've spread and started to crack. As soon as you pull them out of the oven, gently press a chocolate into the center of each cookie.

They're not mutually exclusive haha its a food information channel
Wasn't Adam a journalist? It shows in these videos. Good journalism is educational, after all.
It’s a white wine channel disguised as a message board for seasoning comments.

"What kind of grease did you use?"
"Crisco"
"You idiot, that's shortening!"

this deserves so much more likes what
is this some reference to something that I don't understand?
Ah yes, as opposed to tallening!
Oh My........You are Fuckin Nut's....Right on Steven...make my day....
Fun fact:
What Adam's wife's family apparently calls peanut blossom cookies was also a popular holiday treat in my stepmom's family, except they called them titty cookies.
Now that's one hell of a name
hold on what-

Oh I’ve seen these cookies all over the place. Lots of my family freind bake them

Somewhere there is a food with a serving size of 0.4 grams and no ingredients
There is a sweetener made of regular sugar but because the serving size is less than half a gramm it doesn't need to declare the sugar and thus has no calories.
@@iododendron3416 Please. Elaborate.
I could not find an example but there is a sweetener which has a size per serving of less than 0.5 gramms but is made completely of sugar. Since the size is so small they do not need to state the calories of the sugar which means they can advertise their sweetener as containing zero calories although it really is plain sugar albeit in very small portions (since the sweetener comes in pill form).
@@MrMoon-hy6pn pretty sure he means tic tacs. They are almost completely sugar but because the serving size is so small they can claim zero calories
@@iododendron3416 tic tacs
I purchased Crisco for the first time in over 20 years, to make my grandmother's pie crust. I had no knowledge they had changed their formula. When I opened it, I was immediately aware it was very different. I wasn't happy. However, after your video I understand, and feel better about using it to get that perfect old timey pie crust.
You shouldn't feel good about it. Look up what they've done to orangutans to grow the palm trees.
How are orangutans affected by palm oil?
After palm oil plantations are established, displaced starving orangutans are frequently killed in the most brutal ways such as burning them alive, as agricultural pests when they try to obtain food in the plantation areas.

I would say - a very powerful video, went way beyond expectations. I was watching videos on how to make a pie crust, a lady said "shortening", which I had never heard of, and that lead me to this video. This video has cooking, history, science, environmental impact, etymology, and everything -- very well put together. It even explained what Crisco stood for. Amazing. Now I am subscriber.

His videos are produced exceptionally well. Definitely an underrated channel.
I've tasted shortening once, and it was so strange, because it was like eating flavorless icing.
Like, the texture was like icing, but it tasted like nothing.
Almost as disappointing as discovering that vanilla extract *doesn't* taste as good as it smells.
as a kid my friend had a very overweight older sister who would repeatedly stick her finger in the crisco to lick and profess her unbridled love for it. i was intrigued, it looked like icing after all. when i finally tried i couldn't believe what she had been raving about. poor girl must have had some kind of sensory receptors that were going ape for that flavorless pasty fat
That is because most comercial frosting is crisco with sugar added.
_Almost as disappointing as discovering that vanilla extract doesn't taste as good as it smells._
Just think, if you had the Covid, it would neither taste nor smell.
Me and my brother have a running joke that s'mores is *very* disappointing without the marshmallow. Like, it's sad.
Actually really some high quality vanilla extracts have removed the alcohol and do taste nearly as good as they smell
Your channel is answering so many questions I have about food and science and the science of food. Thanks Adam, you're awesome.
I am really glad that this guy steered into a career of food and food history...the videos are so well done and researched..

Is anybody else wanting a video on monosodium glutamate (MSG) because it is deemed to be so bad but i think a lot of us don't know the truth about it.
good one!
Good suggestion. It's basically concentrated umami. I've heard it was popular to claim an allergy to MSG in the 70s etc.
check out the other Adam's information on that (Adam Ruins Everything)
Just try/cook with it. It's incredibly cheap for an absurd amount. It's not some kind of miracle flavor enhancer like some people believe. In fact any amount over a pinch in a recipe quickly becomes overwhelming and artificial and gross tasting.
There's no physical difference between MSG powder added to food, and the MSG in foods naturally high in umami flavour. Mushrooms for example.
One double blind study with people who claimed to be suffering from MSG intolerance found their claims to not be true.
If the person believed their food to contain added MSG they got sympts like headaches, if they believed it to be free from MSG, they experienced no symptoms, no matter the actual content of added or naturally occuring MSG.
In actuality MSG in food should have a net health benefit.
Since the flavour of MSG is so much stronger than of regular table salt, producers will end up using less Sodium in processed foods than they would otherwises.
And a diet high in sodium can raise systolic blood pressure by 10 mmHg or more.
Wow, great video, I do appreciate all the investigation to bring us all this information. Thanks so much
This is the sort of pedantic edutainment that I enjoy. Thank you for scratching my itch.

I think you missed out Adam by not comparing shortening to lard or tallow. My grandmother used to do all her baking with either lard or suet and her stuff tasted amazing. I don't cook much that calls for shortening, but if I do I use lard. I banished margarine and shortening from my house several years and I think stuff tastes better.
My mother grew up on a farm in the 1940s-50s, and used to have bread and dripping as a treat!
I only use lard in cooking. What I bake (cookies, cakes, etc) stay fresher and moister longer than with shortening. I won't have shortening in my kitchen, thank you very much. :)
@joemackey1950 I'm assuming the taste of the lard doesn't effect how dishes like cookies taste? Also why not use butter and olive oil as well?
Always a wealth of information. Even Freddie wanted to get in on the learning.
Love how you present the information!!! New knowledge for me thanks
Shortening is pretty much non-existent in the UK, a real nightmare to get it over here.

It’s just lubricant, you can use canola a very popular cooking oil for the same thing
I've heard (without checking) that cottonseed oil was a major industrial lubricant prior to petroleum refining. When the more stable petroleum products became available, the cottonseed industry needed a new market, hence the development into a "food".

When I was growing up we only used butter. I grew up in an Italian American community and we used butter or olive oil for everything. When a recipe called for shortening we just used butter and I thought it was the same thing. When I was 17 I took a cooking class in highschool and the teacher brought out the Crisco I was so grossed out 😂 I had never seen it before I didn't want to eat the food!
I’m still grossed out when I see food made with crisco lol
Crisco is a manmade horror beyond my comprehension
I love this video. It's very informative with actual credentials. Thanks!

10/10 video. Great work Adam! Your effort is not going unnoticed.
This channel reminds me of Good Eats, the show that first got me into cooking. Good work, Adam !
I see some of that, but Good Eats never tried to defend a processed margarine or shortening, especially when the science is not even close to being in. Lost points for me on that one. If anything you should avoid it until the science is done. Early testing should not be the standard. They had early testing on margarine as well and that was a disaster that not even ants will touch.
Would like you to try Lauren’s grandmother’s cookies using gee versus regular butter. Also given the age of this recipe, wonder what it would taste like using a very pure lard.
I made cookies with Ghee (and lactose free chocolate chips )recently for a kid who was lactose intolerant. Since it's all fat, the ghee cookies were much more crispy in texture than a normal chocolate chip. Laura's grandmother's recipe might be better. :)
That was very interesting, thank you for the information.

I really love how well researched this is. And i love that you mention the deforestation caused by the palm oil farms. Definitely will be supporting you via patreon as soon as i can.
The deforesting thing is actually not as it may appear: Palm tree oil is by far the most effective agricultural use.
If Palm tree oil itself weren't planted, locals would be planting less efficient plants, and thus deforest even more lands.
The palm oil itself isn't actually the problem, but rather politics and poverty.
I guess so. Personally, I try to confine myself to "time and place." For example, the "cotton field haunted" reference seemed unnecessary in a video about shortening. Adam seems like a nice guy but his need to go there (he seems to do it at every opportunity) suggests the actual haunting is in himself. Such guilt isn't healthy.

Lard can pickup funky smells when you store it in the refrigerator. I suggest storing it in a airtight container or bag.

This was very instructive. Thank you.
I've worked in an adult toy store which sold crisco because its popular for a certain other activity some people enjoy that has nothing to do with eating. It's not sold in supermarkets here, so I've only seen it sold for that use, and I always find it hilarious to see people bake with it.
It's literally a food product. It shouldn't be a surprise that people cook with a food product. Next, you'll say you're surprised that people use cooking oil for cooking things.
Imagine getting memed by your own wife iRL :D
I hope WTF stands for What Type of Frosting, if not this isn't the Adam I fell in love with
Interesting about coronary problem since Crisco was used constantly from its beginnings to the 1960’s in my family. I would still pick Crisco if I had very little refrigerator space.

Chavez Hurtado its a movie released in 1999 about an insomniac office worker, who is never named but presumably named jack, touring a testicular cancer support group and eventually meeting a girl named marla singer. on a business trip, jack meets a flashy soapmaker named tyler durden, eventually forming an underground fighting club with him. slowly, tyler begins hiring people from the club to perform missions for an operation he called project mayhem. one of these missions leads to the death of jacks friend bob, which sends jack on a search to find tyler. however, after days searching for clues towards his whereabouts, he came to the revelation that tyler durden was a figment of his imagination and didn’t actually exist; it had been jack hiring these men all along. it was revealed to jack by a phone call with marla that tyler (or jack, same thing) had planted several explosives inside multiple financial buildings all throughout the city, and they were set to detonate in mere hours. jack attempts turning himself into the police but after learning the police officers were bribed by durden, he frantically ran towards one of the buildings, attempting to defuse them himself. while inside the building, tyler appears next to jack and knocks him out. as jack came to, he saw that he was tied up in front of a window high up inside the building, minutes before detonation. tyler announced his plans to destroy the economy, therefore creating a financial equilibrium and ending consumerism. after remembering tyler wasn’t actually real, jack focuses his mind into transporting tylers gun from tylers hands to his own. it worked, startling tyler. jack realised that if he tricked his brain into thinking he had committed suicide, it would mean tyler durden would die. jack then shoots himself in the cheek, wounding him but not fatally. he looked over to tyler, who fell onto the floor with a gunshot wound in the back of his head. suddenly, some project mayhem crew dragged marla singer into the room. they questioned jack about the wound in his cheek but refer to him as tyler. he ordered them to get out, leaving marla and jack alone. “you met me at a very strange time in my life.” jack remarked to marla as several buildings in the distance explode and collapse. hope you enjoyed my brief rundown.
Just want to comment, just as you finished talking about short manure YT gives me an ad.for spray sanitizer.
A++ job there guys.
Came to the description for the recipe. There it is :)
My favorite thing of Adam's, and what is I think, one of the most important things that sets him apart from other "food" channels, is his use of legitimate scientific sources and studies-which he always links in the description. There is just too much conjecture and flat out wrong information spouted ad-nauseam by people with major platforms, all used to scaremonger over certain foods and diets. Really is nice to watch something and be able to not only hear from researchers in the actual fields, but be given the sources to explore and learn and check for yourself.
Coteret exactly a good example of someone who does a lot of talking without actually citing sources or even at times has misleading Comments is flavcity.

Fun fact: what you spend on internet/ your cellphone every month could feed 50 to 100 people for that same period, yet here you are.
This is such a good video! Fun, beautiful, educational.
I’m glad you changed your editing style in newer videos.
UA-cam Creators' Twitter sent me here and I'm very happy about it.

"Adam being a good father, Hi Freddie"
Thanks for introducing more info on the Crisco Story...Since I have heard differing definitions on how it and margarine was developed. The definitions were more social/political based than fuller fact base.
I really do love this much information slammed right into my head at 1.5× speed lol
I absolutely loved this video. I was reading up on interesterified fats and I don't know how your video randomly came up on my feed but it was great. I loved the interview with the doctor. Now if you can only help people to stop eating soybean oil and do a video on the dangers of that.
I just posted elsewhere, there's been almost no research on interesterified fats since this video, but I did find two papers on experiments with mice that found it causes liver damage.
@ThreadBomb there are a lot of things that are fine for humans that cause organ failure in animals
You’re a real one for that cookie recipe, they’re so damn good
I'm now looking forward to your next video: "What is longening?"
I use that on my penis. It's a foot and a half now.
This video has finally answered why so many serving sizes are so off from what they should be, if anything is at "trace amounts" (under half a gram) so they drop the servings size to make it so.
Once i had a single cookie where the serving size was "1/3" of the cookie. (Technically 1 cookie in a package that said 3 servings per package)
