Runner up to Amiel for his execution, though I still like cooked carrots

Well, greens like spinach or cabbage are better raw than cooked, but that is just me.
Raw spinach? I will eat the fuck out of it.
Cooked? Nah, too chewy and weird.
And not related to the Bon Appetite channel, but what I made tonight:
All about the potatoes that roast under the chicken and soak up all the chicken juice like sponges.
I watched another video with Molly and they censor "fuck" sometimes but she guts a fish a says "fucking narsty" so they aren't that vigilant I guess.
edit: I'm not sure why I care or why anyone else should care. I just find it enjoyable to hear them bust out a "fuck" every now and then.

Breast cooked to 165F. Brine the chicken for about 4 hrs before cooking so it stays juicy even as leftovers. Which means either chicken mac n cheese or chicken quesadillas (or both) the next few nights

FUCK.
Stupid easy recipe. Just need to do it on a day off because the brine takes 4 hrs, but can shoot the recipe off if interested.
My wife had made this roasted chicken for years before I met her, and then several years down the line we decided to finally try brines and it was like unlocking a cheat code.
But then we saw a random episode of America's Test Kitchen and they roasted the potatoes under the bird and we both were sitting up at attention at the thought and never looked back. Not sure what else we can do to it now.
But really, those potatoes acting as sponges for all that delicious fat dripping out of the chicken as it cooks...
The hilariously inconsistent bleeping is one of my favourite things about the channel.
That's definitely a far superior method to the boiled one they used, or whatever it was, I admit
Amiel is so aggressively Griffin Mcelroy in looks, attitude, and voice, that I have to remind myself every now and then that they aren't the same person
Foodie Griffin McElroy is the secret best member of the cast. Carla deserves a lot of love too.
I agree about Amiel, even if his video going to a deli and trying everything on the menu made me roll my eyes a bit. A couple years late to that party
You're not mixing up Amiel with Delaney, are you?
How does one even do that?
Are you Sam Elliott, Tom Sellick, Luke Evans, or John Oates?
stache's are back, baybee
No?
Then ditch the stache.
I've tried about a half dozen recipes for Banana Bread and Carla's version is super easy and great-tasting every time I'm in the mood or have a weekly banana surplus. I'm surprised it hasn't been posted (or if it has I missed it while skimming for Claire & Brad memes). Anyways, here's the vid link and some pre-sliced, still-cooling pics from two separate occasions. Mine's a little darker, but it's always perfect and moist on the inside. And yes, I use walnuts. I've also made it with peanuts in a pinch... still delicious.

Shit, I have some frozen bananas in the freezer waiting for this very occasion.
Made BA's Best Bolognese. Subbed pancetta for smoked bacon and it SLAPPED. Was apprehensive about the lack of seasoning in the recipe, but that tiny amount of nutmeg and the stock are more than enough with a bit of kosher salt. Simmered for 3.5 hours because I doubled the recipe.

I'm with Claire in the intro. Pocky was not a thing when us Millenials were growing up. I've only started seeing it regularly the past 5 years or so and probably would never have tried it in that time if I didn't have kids.
Pocky seems like it wouldn't even be a challenge for Claire. It's just cookie or pretzel sticks dipped in various sauces.
With the amount of editing in their videos I'm sure they have a significant lead time. This was definitely recorded before that tease went out.
Yeah, I first heard about it in southern Alabama when I was maybe 16 or 17 and in after school drama club meetings. We had the small group of anime guys who'd eat it and drink some drinks with seeds or gels or something lol in them and that was the first time I'd ever encountered it.
Claire showed her phone in part 3 of the Sourdoughnuts episode, which was shot around the same time as the Starburst episode, and it was June 4 and the Starburst ep didn't go up until June 20. So yeah, Hot Pockets are probably a week or two away.
I first saw Pocky in college (2003). One of my friends was one of those mallninjashit dudes and introduced me to Pocky.
Not gonna lie - always thought it was overrated.

God, this video is bringing back all these memories of food they'd bring in high school. Like the chocolate filled pandas (?), some kind of freeze dried seafood I think?, and like little Pokémon candies with toys inside.
I have no idea where they were buying this stuff in super small town 2002-2003 Alabama but they always had it.

If it was from Cambodia or somewhere besides Japan no one would like it tbh
I'm trying to think of other things I'd want Claire to make at this point and, honestly, all I can come up with is fast food stuff but I don't really eat that very often.
Unless she wants to do Taco Bell's cheesy gordita crunch because I'm always down for five of those.
