Great vid, you just got yourself a new subscriber :)

That rolling pin is for god dam Rotis!

The sweet version is a "Galette des Rois" 😊👑

I think you should have frozen the dough in between. Not simply refrigerate it. That would have helped a lot.

Honestly everytime he pulls out ham on this show, I just think of that movie Ponyo 🤣

Maybe Julia used American butter in this puff pastry recipe? Maybe that’s the reason it didn’t work as well?

Why on earth was aspic a thing, it sounds revolting

hamilton beach makes a really bad food processor. probably the only reason the parsley thing didnt turn out

😍😍😍😍😍

i just looked at your sub count and it pissed me off. how is it not 1 mil or more already?!?!?! it SHOULD be

Too much fat

its like indian taco salad

"Fast Puff Pastry" is a fraud, especially when used instead of the real thing. Pithiviers deserves better.

Mashed potato are not meant to be made in a food processor (hence the "mashed" !). The food processor destroy the starch in the potatoes and you end up with a weird rubbgery texture, it's way better with a traditional potato masher :)

Is that a ham and cheese Hot Pocket? Except better.

I admire your tenacity!!

Clapping for ya!

I hope the people at SPAM see this & send him some replacement cans of SPAM.

The joy of cooking escapes this man... He is a drama queen, quite deliberately... Finding problems and making money from the drama.

Ouch! Was that a Barfolomew quote there?

I'm thinking the thing that went wrong, is the fact you're so good at explaining the steps the butter is sitting there heating up, and as soon as you start using your hands, the melting process happens SO much quicker, it's sadly one of those techniques where seconds, not minutes, makes the difference. Once the butter has started to bind with the flour, there's no turning back. :c

Also people in the comments need to let the man make a damn cake and chill

What the hell is going on in your area !!! So many sirens

Get a large marble rolling pin and put it in the fridge the night before.

Spam Musubi is a must try. You’ll love it

Paper towels in oven on lowest temp shouldn't be a problem (the paper might brown a little). The oven would have to be higher than 451F to start a fire.

You need to invest in a spider

i always enjoy when you make pastries and cakes!! in the end, it really looked good!!

try siff the dry ingredients before mixing to prevent clumps, also easier to clean on the strainer. Enjoying the Content

Nooooooooo! Thats not how you open a coconut 😢

Whyyyyyyyy sir why?! 😅

I have no idea what Julia is talking about with the "American flour has a high gluten content". American flours are notorious for having a lower protein content than European flours which is why in bread making we look for the higher protein content on the labels (I'm not sure how that translates into higher or lower gluten content, but I know that we don't have anything like strong bread flour for example, even our bread flours have a low protein content and make a lighter, cakier bread compared to our European counterparts). I suspect you went wrong when you added cake flour. There was no way any gluten developed at all with that amount of butter and so little gluten. I think a better "fast" puff pasty method is the grated butter method or "cheats" puff, where you grate frozen butter into your dough in place of your traditional solid butter mass. Then roll and fold, chilling between each roll and fold. But I'd try again, using high protein content all purpose flour. I also don't understand the smearing technique Julia advocates with the butter where she suggests using the heel of your palm to work the butter into a dough; that just seems to heat up the butter and stick it to your counter surface whenever you try it 🤷‍♀️. I love Julia Child, but sometimes her advice is weird.

Did you lick the plate?

The first one looked more like a shortcrust pastry dough. In my country there's a dish called polvorosa de pollo, a chicken pie made with a slightly sweet shortcrust that is really crumbly (polvo means dust, so a polvorosa crumbles into dust). It's delicious, but it would be disappointing if you expected flaky puff pastry.

Hmmm looks like a glorified Cornish pasty lol btw I see a cookbook in your Future. “ How I fixed Julia Child and other Chef’s recipes to make them work.” 😊

I've had the same issue with grass-fed butter. I love using it but it starts melting as soon as you set it on the counter.

I think you just don't try to bake all the cakes at once and 45 min is bananas.

jaimie you are so resilient i would've shoved this recipe in hell together with all its ancestors.

@5:20 I have a kitchenaid standmixer but at the time of purchase I used to cook larger recipes more often so I bought the 6.9 Litre beast but in the last couple years I have cooked less often in volumes so small it cannot be used 🥲

Bruh wtf happened to your can

I agree with Jaclyn Claire - Julia's recipes do have mistakes in them. That first recipe had a ridiculous amount of butter in it, more like a crumble (and crumble it did). Also, if you want a multi-layered pastry it has to be MADE in layers like the successful recipe you used later. Layers cannot arise by magic in a butter mixture that has been jumbled in a blender. Not your fault. But also, maybe your fridge needs to be set colder when you're making pastry. I love the vids - exciting action entertainment.

I hate the spoiler at the beginning of videos. When did this get the norm? :/

Come to cincinnati and try spam at Onolicious Hawaii. And did you cook it at all?

It looked to me like you were waiting too long to add the butter into the flour and consequently you didn't get the small flecks of butter throughout the pastry that you needed.

The only good thing that has come out of Nanaimo, is the Nanaimo bar.

Been watching for a long time. I think id be more invested in the video if I wasn’t immediately shown the (or any of the) results straight away.

“We’re about three quarters of the way through this video…” *checks progress bar* Oh, sweetie.

Jamie I have watched your Barack Obama crack pie several times it looks fabulous but the link you have on the more link doesn’t lead you to a recipeI can find the recipe yours doesn’t pop up then I realize the five year-old recipe I never noticed that, if you have a recipe somewhere could you let me know please where to find it, I always have such a rough time and I’m tired of crust from the grocery thanks so much been watching you since the beginning I’m a subscriber I’ll be watching you love you show. thanks so much
