Fun fact the first baked ice cream was introduced in 1875, at Delmonico's in NY City. It was called Baked Alaska, and it was named in honor of The USA's purchase of Alaska from Russia.
Technically Baked Alaska doesn't need to be baked unless you bake your own cake. Otherwise just buying premade cake is the standard way of makin it. The meringue is either torched or broiled giving it that baked look. This is my all time favorite dessert, it just takes a lot of time to make it.
Usually you don't get an entire banquet of fried food. Jolly's british stomachs are probably more than a bit overwhelmed. The s'more is probably better than they say, but after an entire deep fried meal, it is basically a mouthful of deep fried sugar. My favorite on this list is the deep fried ice cream. But my favorite deep fried fair food is funnel cake, no sauce, just light powdered sugar. The deep fried pickles are also delicious.
Texas State Fair has competitions every year for new fair food. They even had fried butter one year. This is where a lot of the ideas come from. I am sure other fairs do the same thing.
@@dayeti6794 I think the same vendors are at the Texas state fair and at the Rodeo, as well as RenFest. When they cancelled the Rodeo for Covid is when I found out how many of the same vendors travel from event to event in the state to make their money for the year.
Fried ice cream recipe (thanks Chi-Chi's): 1. Form 4 oz. of French vanilla ice cream into a ball. 2. Roll the ball of ice cream in cinnamon+sugar mixture until completely coated. 3. Roll in corn flake crumbs till coated. 4. Place in the freezer to harden. 5. Place the hardened ice cream ball in a fry basket and deep fry for 2 seconds at 350 degrees fahrenheit. 6. Drizzle a small amount of honey over the top of the ice cream ball.
Deep fried ice cream at its heart is a scoop of ice cream and a shell of corn flakes. You are dipping the whole thing in hot oil briefly to harden the shell and ice cream can’t melt. Dust with cinnamon sugar and whipped cream if you like. Tex-mex has this all the time.
It's not Like you eat those types of food every day. It's something new you try as a treat while your there.😊 If do you have the opportunity to Try those food items do so everybody's taste buds are different. You may like something they didn't, and hate something they liked.
Houston live stock show & rodeo begins in the end of Feb & goes on for about a month so the weather is probably 80 at most midday & you wld want a jacket after dark bc it cld fall from 75 to 35 without any sun plus everything feels more extreme on both ends bc of the high humidity... but we don't mind bc snow & ice terrify us.
Deep fried Oreos are amazing. I am surprised you guys don't have them over there. Any state fair here will have it, as well as deep fried candy bars. Deep Fried Reese's is my favorite. One of those once a year treats.
A restaurant I owned back in the 90's one of our most popular desserts was vanilla ice cream breaded in crushed cocoa frosted flakes. The key was to double bread the ice cream and keep it rock hard frozen till frying
1:00 One thing that you two should most definitely try is the Deep-Fried Dill Pickles It sounds crazy at first, but they really work quite well, especially if you have a zesty dipping sauce for the pickles
My favorite is deep-fried Snickers. Melty chocolate caramel & crunchy peanuts. Definitely need a texture contrast. Anytime you fry an already melty item, you have to freeze it to a ridiculous temp before you batter & fry it otherwise it disintegrates. Ollie definitely needs to learn to take smaller bites when doing food videos. He prob wouldn't have felt so sick if he dialed it back lol (and they were out of the 100° sun 😉) Oh and no one talks how Josh does unless they're being smartasses. Accent, yes, over the top southern bs, nope. Another great reaction by y'all 💜
The ice cream stay cold the same way it does in Baked Alaska. I would imagine they 'super freeze' the ice cream. Key Lime pie is extremely tart but do try it. You aren't likely to regret it.
I love key lime pie, If I knew it would survive I would send you the ingredients to make it One of them is a jar of Key Lime Juice. Plus I be afraid of how much it costs to ship it to you maybe I will find out and see if I can make it happen
There is a contest every year for fair ground food and deep fried foods is one of the menu items that have to be created. The winner of this contest was Charlie Boghosian who created the deep fried oreo.
Fried ice cream is very common in Mexican restaurants. It's flash fried, so the inside does not melt. There is also a Baked Alaska that is ice cream baked inside a meringue. The Baked Alaska is supposed to be a pretty hard one to do.
I watched this the first time on Jolly, and all I could think was - OMG that is a lot of (extreme) deep fried food - and in the hot sun! I was amazed that they both weren't turning green.
Fried Ice Cream is amazing. In addition to being at stands in Rodeos and State Fairs, I've had it in both Chinese restaurants (fried in a wok) and at Mexican restaurants (sprinkled with cinnamon). Fried Ice Cream "works"/is able to be prepared because its formed into a ball first, then very deeply frozen, then quickly dipped in the Batter, then Frozen more, then very quickly deep fried.
Some places have even fried butter. They take about a 1 inch cube of butter, dip it in liquid nitrogen (about 350 degrees below zero) and a quick fry. They say it melts in your mouth.
Key lime pie is great not so much fried. Limes are kike lemons so its tangy and frying it makes it taste off. But just a regular slice of pie its perfect.
I've met the owner of Fried What? And she is an amazing woman!!!! Deep fried Kool aid, Twinkies, pickles, and soooo much more!!!! Amazing!!!!!! Deep fried Oreos are simply wonderful!!!!!
The fried ice cream works oddly on the principle of thermal displacement. If you throw frozen solid ice cubes in boiling water it barely melts because the cold can’t move to hot that quickly. But throw them in the fridge and the ice melts rapidly as the cold temperature absorbs thermal energy better. It’s an old physics principle that we had to figure out. Alton brown showed this idea once by chucking ice sculpture ducks in various thermal situations and the fridge melted quickly while the oven and boiling water were untouched.
Any Mexican restaurant in Southern California sells deep-fried ice cream. It's a different batter. It's more of a corn flake outside, and it's hard. They usually put it in a fried tortilla bowl with cinnamon sugar, chocolate syrup, and whip cream. Delicious!
Ah, yes! It's always a pleasure to watch the Jolly guys trying all kinds of foods. And on their other UA-cam channel, Korean Englishman, they made a bunch of videos with Ollie's then-2-yr-old daughter Juno tasting different foods -- and the videos are wonderful.
It does sound gross. I was offered one at a friend's house once though and I was going to eat just one to be polite. One to be polite turned into making and eating a full pack of fried Oreos and me looking up UA-cam videos on how to make them the next day. Definitely try them! Maybe make a video of you two trying them. If the recipes you find don't mention vanilla extract, add just a tiny bit, like 1/8 teaspoon and also a pinch, seriously literally just a pinch of table sugar to your batter.
There's really no big secret as to how these cakes, Twinkies, even the cookies are prepared for being fried: Most of these things are portioned out and then kept in a deep freezer (less than 0 degrees F) then fried from frozen. It's not really a secret because a few years ago there was a booth at the State Fair Of Texas where they gave away the 'secret' - that if you have food that's completely frozen, then batter it and toss it into a deep frier, you'll not ruin the food inside the batter. However there's something maybe not good about the booth where these guys purchased these items and it's my guess that their deep frier wasn't holding the oil at the correct temperature because they all described these fried treats as greasy when really they should be crispy not where you can feel the oil on the cooked product.
Almost all weird fried foods in USA come from state fairs. State fairs are known for for frying everything. If it exist then some state fair has tried to batter and fry it.
I was thinking the same thing when she called the Graham cracker crumb crust a biscuit. Though to be fair to Millie, a Graham cracker would be a biscuit to her.
For them, biscuits are cookies so they described it accurately. Graham crackers are closer to a cookie than a cracker. I use oreo cookies to make cheesecake crusts too 😋
@cheryl flam I've watched Irish tryers have digestives for s'mores & a few other things and they said they are the closest thing but not the same. I'll have to pick some up next time I'm at World Market cuz now I NEED TO KNOW 🤣
They had/have deep fried butter on a stick at the iowa state fair. Not sure if they always serve it or if it was just for shock value, but deep fried butter really is a stereotypical indulgent American food on a stick aka, a stomach ache on a stick!
Mexican deep fried ice cream is amazing. They coat a large roll of vanilla ice cream in Frosted Flakes and let it deep freeze overnight, then deep fry it for like 35 seconds. It's so good it hurts.
First time I had fried ice cream was in a Japanese restaurant (in Montreal, that my cousin co-owned) probably over 15 year ago. Shortly after I started noticing it on other Japanese (as well as some non-Japanese) restaurants' menus. Since then it's can be found in all kinds of restaurants. There's a few different ways it can be made but the common step is that you have to make sure your ball of ice cream is completely frozen solid beforehand. One method is that you can roll the ice cream in a good coating of corn flakes, breadcrumbs mixture or panko mixture (while it's still slightly soft to make sure the coating sticks well), freeze it completely and then when you want to eat it, just deep fry it very quickly. You can make many ahead of them and store them in a container in your freezer until you decide to fry some. Another risky method is literally to take your frozen ball of ice cream, quickly dip it in batter and deep fry it. The easiest way (which was the first version I ever tried) is to wrap your ball of ice cream in a thin crepe and - again - deep fry it quickly. You can also make these ahead of time and keep them in your freezer until you want to fry them. The crepe is thin enough that even frozen it'll fully fry before the ice cream has time to really melt from the hot oil. And key lime pie can be a bit of an acquired taste I've heard. I vaguely remember having it once before (I figured I'd like it because I was fine with lemon pie) and I wasn't a fan. I did wonder if maybe I just had a mediocre version but I haven't eaten any key lime pie since so I wouldn't know. 🤷🏻♀️
All the deep fried ice cream I’ve had have been battered and fried. There seems to be a common thread on being associated with specific ethnic restaurants. Here in the states it’s Mexican, as Ducky told them, one of the comments there said what it was in Australia, and you say Japanese restaurants in Canada. My grandmother liked key lime pie, I don’t particularly care for it. Not that it’s bad, it just doesn’t spark for me.
@@JustMe-dc6ks to be fair IDK about how fried ice cream "started" in Canada but that's just what I noticed with my personal experience at the time. I grew up in a Vietnamese household with immigrant parents who tended to prefer Chinese and Vietnamese/South East Asian restaurants so my restaurant experience was mostly limited to them (and some fast food) until I was in college and was able to start exploring more cuisines. I didn't have my first sushi, avocado or nachos until I was like 17-18 despite being born and raised in one of the biggest multicultural/ethnic city in North America! 😅 I do know that among the people I knew, many of them were shocked by the concept of fried ice cream whenever I'd mention it at the time. Within a few years though, most had heard of it. We actually even made the crepe version ourselves (my dad also co-owned the restaurant so he learned how to make it and eventually I was the one to make the crepes at home while my parents deep fried the whole thing) and our relatives/friends loved it. And I kinda think the fried ice cream you can find at many North American fairs was possibly independently created from those found in (ethnic) restaurants. Like some Southern or Midwestern white dude literally just thought: "let's fry anything we can and see what's good!" 🤣
I have avoided the deep fried foods for years but was at a fair last year that had deep fried cheesecake. I loved the first couple of bites but beyond that I felt nauseous. I'm back to avoiding the deep fried food again.
Fried ice cream has to be done using solid frozen ice cream. It's flash fried, so that's how it works. It actually is sold in a lot of Mexican restaurants.
@@runrafarunthebestintheworld It's in some Mexican restaurants today in California. Not it chains but the nicer restaurants. El Torito in Huntington beach sells them. It's ice cream in flour tortillas with cinnamon with corn flakes I think, deep fried. It's yummy.
Every item they ate will only taste it's best when eaten immediately after frying. Had they eaten the fried s'more at the beginning I bet their opinion of it would have been different! Signed-A born, raised, and still here(after being gone for 10 years then coming back home) Texan! 😊
I'm not a sweets person so I love chicken fried steak which is steak fried like we fry chicken. Fried okra(my weakness), fried zucchini, fried mushrooms, and even fried green tomatoes! I was told, by my grandma, that fried veggies became standard in our house in the deep south due to us disliking most or all vegetables so the idea was "better to eat fried vegetables than no vegetables at all!" Frying vegetables also preserves the veggie in a way to where there is a longer shelf life which is the reason deep frying food was originally invented in ancient Egypt!
The batter on the outside just has to brown and the ice cream doesn't have to cook so it's in & out of the fried very fast and thats how the ice cream stays ice cold in the center.
🥧Key Lime pie partly frozen (minus half of the whipped cream)… OMG !!!!!!!! 😱 is my fav & it’s my birthday go to “cake” (pie). And since my birthday is this Saturday, 27 May I will be having a huge slice!! And NY Cheesecake is my 2nd. Oh, I wonder if I could find someone to make me a Key Lime Cheesecake!??! Oh sweet dreams 😴 tonight 🎉 😂 ✌🏻🇺🇸
They super freeze everything. They only drop it to cook the coating. I have had frozen ice cream with corn flakes and honey and with granola and honey coatings.
My son just walked in with a big bag of Whataburger, telling me how he tried to explain the HOUSTON Livestock Show and Rodeo to his Yankee (Northerner) friends.
Deep fried Oreos:" As the story goes, Boghosian, working at the San Diego State Fair, decided he needed something new to attract customers. Inspired by McDonald's apple pie and armed with a wide variety of snack foods, Boghosian experimented with different types of fried treats until he finally found what he was looking for: the deep-fried Oreo. Boghosian's story, if it is to be believed, takes place a few years after 1996 when he set up shop at the fair, which would place the creation of the fried Oreo sometime in the very early 2000s."
"it improves vomit". Hahahahahahaha. I didn't think I would like key lime pie until I ate a piece. delicious. I am however not sure about it deep fried though.
The ice cream is frozen solid. You know how hard ice is to scoop when you first take it out of the freezer? That’s how hard the ice cream must be if you’re going to fry it or bake it.
Fun fact the first baked ice cream was introduced in 1875, at Delmonico's in NY City. It was called Baked Alaska, and it was named in honor of The USA's purchase of Alaska from Russia.
Didn't know that - thanks for the info! I loved when he said - you could sell that in a restaurant. My first thought was...they do!
Either one. Baked Alaska and deep fried ice cream are two different things, Beesleys.
Technically Baked Alaska doesn't need to be baked unless you bake your own cake. Otherwise just buying premade cake is the standard way of makin it. The meringue is either torched or broiled giving it that baked look. This is my all time favorite dessert, it just takes a lot of time to make it.
All the original foods are frozen before being dipped into the batter, then fried. Helps them to hold their original form.
"You could sell that in a restaurant."
They do sell fried ice cream in restaurants.
Ducky actually told Josh & Ollie that in the original video.

No it seems like only the Texas fair does. Pfft
The Beesleys really need to go to the Texas State Fair instead of the Rodeo for trying food.
Yes! I know the Indiana state fair does something similar!

The deep fried stuff must be frozen before a very very fast frying, just long enough to quickly cook batter
I’m never this quick! Hi guys! I love the Jolly reactions! 😆❤️
1:00
One thing that you two should most definitely try is the Deep-Fried Dill Pickles
It sounds crazy at first, but they really work quite well, especially if you have a zesty dipping sauce for the pickles
I make those and I can't wait for the batches to be done and I'm eating the ones out of the fryer.
@@SherriLyle80s if you like a little spice, load up some home made ranch with cayenne pepper, get it nice and pink if you enjoy it
@@shalakabooyaka1480 ok, that actually sounds pretty good
A Zesty Ranch dipping sauce??, you now have my undivided attention
That with some tiger sauce :0
My favorite is deep-fried Snickers. Melty chocolate caramel & crunchy peanuts. Definitely need a texture contrast.
Anytime you fry an already melty item, you have to freeze it to a ridiculous temp before you batter & fry it otherwise it disintegrates.
Ollie definitely needs to learn to take smaller bites when doing food videos. He prob wouldn't have felt so sick if he dialed it back lol (and they were out of the 100° sun 😉)
Oh and no one talks how Josh does unless they're being smartasses. Accent, yes, over the top southern bs, nope.
Another great reaction by y'all 💜
Every year the Texas state fair has a competition who can create the newest and best deep fried foods.
41 new foods in 2022, not all of them were fried. Texas State Fair is a great State Fair. 👍🏽
The ice cream stay cold the same way it does in Baked Alaska. I would imagine they 'super freeze' the ice cream. Key Lime pie is extremely tart but do try it. You aren't likely to regret it.

Deep fried cheesecake on a stick but you would be amazed how many things are good or better deep fried
That's wild.
Takes like a minute to fry everything but maybe five minutes total. These stands are quick because they have such high customer turnover rates.
The ice cream is deep frozen in a ball, then battered and fried. When it fries, the ice cream softens up again.

they also sell deep fried butter lol.
They also make deep fried butter, the dipping sauces chocolate, Carmel and butter
Fried ice cream has to be done using solid frozen ice cream. It's flash fried, so that's how it works. It actually is sold in a lot of Mexican restaurants.
Well I don't see fried ice cream anywhere in California Mexican restaurants. Just Orchata. Pfft
@@runrafarunthebestintheworld It's in some Mexican restaurants today in California. Not it chains but the nicer restaurants. El Torito in Huntington beach sells them. It's ice cream in flour tortillas with cinnamon with corn flakes I think, deep fried. It's yummy.
Hi from Texas
Key lime pie is very similar to lemon cheesecake. In fact, they are sometimes mixed up (like pumpkin and sweet potato pie are).
Every item they ate will only taste it's best when eaten immediately after frying. Had they eaten the fried s'more at the beginning I bet their opinion of it would have been different! Signed-A born, raised, and still here(after being gone for 10 years then coming back home) Texan! 😊
I'm not a sweets person so I love chicken fried steak which is steak fried like we fry chicken. Fried okra(my weakness), fried zucchini, fried mushrooms, and even fried green tomatoes! I was told, by my grandma, that fried veggies became standard in our house in the deep south due to us disliking most or all vegetables so the idea was "better to eat fried vegetables than no vegetables at all!" Frying vegetables also preserves the veggie in a way to where there is a longer shelf life which is the reason deep frying food was originally invented in ancient Egypt!
The best fair food is funnel cakes hands down
Deep fried snickers are the best.
Deep fried Twinkie with raspberry and powdered sugar on top is my all time favorite.
Congrats on catching the Whataburger reference of their Whatastate t-shirts.
One thing they didn't have was deep fried cookie dough lol
The batter on the outside just has to brown and the ice cream doesn't have to cook so it's in & out of the fried very fast and thats how the ice cream stays ice cold in the center.
🥧Key Lime pie partly frozen (minus half of the whipped cream)… OMG !!!!!!!! 😱 is my fav & it’s my birthday go to “cake” (pie). And since my birthday is this Saturday, 27 May I will be having a huge slice!! And NY Cheesecake is my 2nd. Oh, I wonder if I could find someone to make me a Key Lime Cheesecake!??! Oh sweet dreams 😴 tonight 🎉 😂 ✌🏻🇺🇸
You don’t hear about baked Alaska much but it is essentially baked ice cream. I’ve never had it but it’s in one of my cook books.
Deep fried orios are amazing!!! Delicious, just rich. Deep fried icecream is also amazing.
They super freeze everything. They only drop it to cook the coating. I have had frozen ice cream with corn flakes and honey and with granola and honey coatings.
For reference a close dicription of fried twinky would be a fried bread with cooked cream. And is heavenly.
This is how America uses its scientific technology. We deep fry ice cream…..and still keep it frozen. 😄🇺🇸👍🏼
Hi Howdy and Hello from Oklahoma USA. If there is 1 thing to know about Americans is --> We will deep fry anything at least once to try it.
They use dry ice to freeze the ice cream very cold before they fry it
A few years back the big thing was deep fried Kool-Aid powder.
My son just walked in with a big bag of Whataburger, telling me how he tried to explain the HOUSTON Livestock Show and Rodeo to his Yankee (Northerner) friends.
Deep fried Oreos:" As the story goes, Boghosian, working at the San Diego State Fair, decided he needed something new to attract customers. Inspired by McDonald's apple pie and armed with a wide variety of snack foods, Boghosian experimented with different types of fried treats until he finally found what he was looking for: the deep-fried Oreo. Boghosian's story, if it is to be believed, takes place a few years after 1996 when he set up shop at the fair, which would place the creation of the fried Oreo sometime in the very early 2000s."
The crust and heat keeps the flavor in.
"it improves vomit". Hahahahahahaha. I didn't think I would like key lime pie until I ate a piece. delicious. I am
however not sure about it deep fried though.
If you can't get fresh key limes, Nellie and Joe's bottled key lime juice is the only one I'll ever use. I grew up in SFLA & this is all we use 😊😊😊
For the ice cream & the cheesecake you freeze the crap out of it before you deep fried them
They’re good! 😊
The ice cream is frozen solid. You know how hard ice is to scoop when you first take it out of the freezer? That’s how hard the ice cream must be if you’re going to fry it or bake it.
They didn't try funnel cakes. That's a must at a stock show or fair.
Its doesn't help the fact they are sitting in the hot sun in texas while eating all these oily treats I would of got sick to tbh.
I'm a sucker for sweets.
Most of the fried desserts were frozen before coated and fried
At some of the state fair or other places like they when have deep fly butter
They freeze everything then deep fry it, that why the inside thaws as the outside cooks.
I can not spoil a good Oreo like this. But I will grill a brat in beer. You need to check Wisconsin foods.
There amazing
They stick everything in a heavy duty freezer so they don't completely thaw out.
Yay! Part 2!
We even have deep fried ice cream.
Fried oreo is my go to carnival snack get 6 and sgare with a friend lol
Dentists love this sort of thing. Sugar fried sugar.
