When they say "spiced" you are immediately thinking savory spice like chili, etc. Spice in this sense refers to nutmeg, cinnamon, etc. All spices but very different.
He questioned this in another video too (Trader Joe’s pumpkin pie I think?) and I was going nuts! 😂 I don’t think he’s had a broad range of food experiences.
I was going to say the same thing. I hope this helps bump you up so he might notice.
@@GenXDaddyO def has the chicken nuggets til 25 and pick off the peppers from a pizza vibe lol. love the enthusiasm to watch these vids tho
Thank you for this comment, it’s been irking me for a couple videos haha. Love him to death, but we have to expand his tastebuds! He’ll forever be thankful ☺️
Read this Lew
Spicy doesn't always mean hot. There are other spices than peppers.
Yes spice often means seasoning
You should probably specify seasoning that complements sweet thongs like cinnamon or nutmeg, or something along those lines. Like, we put enough of that, butter, and ther ingredients to gibe it a full, rich taste.
He wouldn't know about other spices, Brits don't use them.😂 And no he shouldn't have specify which spices. The British circled the world... supposedly looking for those very things. Yet, they never used any of them and still don't use any of them. 😲 Shame 😭
Bruh! That was "F"d up... Hilarious but still 'F"d up. Come on man let em live he's trying. SMH@@kikibigbangfan3540
@@kikibigbangfan3540 They do use them. They invented "curry powder" which has all kinds of spices in it. Indians don't use curry powder--they blend freshly ground spices in a unique mixture for most dishes or they sometimes cheat with some standard "masalas" (spice mixtures) but what we know as "curry powder" isn't one of them. But what is a bit shocking is that, having invented the stuff in India, they brought it home.
When he is saying "heavily spiced", he isn't referring to hot spice, he is referring to spices such as cinnamon, cardamon, nutmeg etc.
Flambé is when he set the bananas foster on fire. That’s meant to be done table side. It’s part of the experience. “Spiced” means they used seasoning, which in bread pudding is probably cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla, etc. All our best food is very well seasoned, which is what makes it taste so good.
This video made me miss home. I am from Louisiana. 🥲
It’s pronounced Ben-yay. Also, I have been to Brennans and had the bananas foster. They do cook it tableside just like that. To clarify, saying something is spiced, doesn’t mean it’s spicy. I think they are speaking about spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, and cardamom.
lol spent a lot of time conquering the world for spice and never used it
It’s French. You can always trust the British to not pronounce it correctly.
Spicey desserts are not spiced with pepper sauce or chili powder. They are spiced with cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, ginger. They are flavorful, not hot.
Brits may have conquered most of the globe but their taste buds are centuries behind most of the world. I have some picky words about the French but I'll be polite and say this instead: French know their desserts.
@@AC-ni4gtfrench can do their breads and pastries lol. The rest though...
Flambè is French for "setting it on fire in front of your table" .... more or less
LOL
Actually Flambè means Set on Fire. 😂😂😂 So you are close
Pronounced Ben-yay. Spelled “Beignet”
The are coated in powder/confectioners/icing sugar. It’s used as a dusting sugar or mixed with water to make a glossy icing for cookies.
Have you noticed that they have done 4 food videos in New Orleans so far . Just a testament of how tasty Louisiana food is.
I love everything about New Orleans and Louisiana. So much rich history, culture, spooky folklore, and it being the birthplace of Jazz, which sparked Rock and Roll. I hope to book a trip there one day and try the food.
That is powdered sugar on top. It's called a Benyay. It's really good.
A banana split is a banana with three scoops of ice cream in the middle of the banana. Some people eat it with chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry ice cream. Then you add chocolate or caramel syrup with pecan or walnuts. You can also put sprinkles on it as well and use any flavor ice cream. It also topped with whip cream.
I like that you spelled it phoenetically, because the actual spelling can be confusing. It's pronounced Benyay, but it's spelled Beignet.
It will never cease to amaze me how Brits can live so close to France or Spain but not a one can pronounce the languages. Pie-ella anyone?
Just popped in to explain Powdered Sugar. Its extra fine sugar mixed with corn starch. Its what makes icing (powdered sugar and a spoon of liquid, usually milk) and frosting (powdered sugar and butter)
In the UK it's called Confectioners sugar.
the dessert isn't "spicy" its "spiced" as in different spices like nutmeg or cinnamon
**isn't **
Only a Brit would think spices mean heat 😂
@@gh41996Yeah 😂
A beignet literally is deep fried dough; and I know you have confectioners sugar (also known as icing sugar) in the UK, but if you don't do a lot of baking it isn't surprising that you might not recognize it 😅
Pronounce it Ben Yay, it’s French
A banana split is probably the most famous ice cream dish.
You have three scoops of three different ice creams in a row and each scoop has its own syrup flavor drizzled on top. Then other toppings can be put on top. Finally a banana is sliced long ways in half and placed on each side of the ice cream.
With whipped cream, nuts & a maraschino cherry on top! 😁
Don’t forget the whipped cream 😊
Don't forget the chocolate syrup.
We stayed a weekend in Ouray, Colorado when we lived in that state and went to a place that made deep fried banana splits. One was MASSIVE! My husband and I could've easily shared it with two other couples (but we didn't). 🤭
The English language/slang in America can be confusing if one thinks literally all the time. But we commonly use the term “spicy” to refer to something that is hot (but technically it doesn’t necessarily have to be hot but we normally do link “spicy” to hot/heat). We do say the term “spiced” to refer to something that is flavored with spices that are not hot. So when Josh says something is “heavily spiced” it may have a strong flavor of cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla or other spices commonly found in desserts.
That's not just a US thing. That's an everywhere thing. Just look at "Spiced Rum".
As a regular non famous youtuber and American, must say that unless you get a server on a bad day which absolutely happens, the servive actually is like that. Even wothout cameras. Partially because they make tips which get bigger when the service is esp great, but just because Americans in general actually are really nice folks and we're mostly socialized to be polite, generous, helpful. We have a terrible reputation but actually we're pretty great when youre interacting with the actual people.
Having a nice and polite customer to help or entertain always made my day when I worked retail, especially during the holidays.
@@wittsullivan8130 me too. Its a little harder to get that, after that propaganda "the customer is always right" crap. Lol they definitely aren't
I've been to Brennan's and that's how they do it for everyone.
Bread pudding is basically stale bread that is soaked in custard and then baked. Imagine a French toast casserole. You will often see it made classic dessert spices (vanilla, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, mace, etc.), fruits (bananas, raisins, currants, apples, peaches, etc.), and sometimes topped with sauces (caramel, butterscotch, liquor based, etc.).
I routinely make a "banana split bread pudding" --throw those almost too ripe bananas in w/ the bread, chop up some maraschino cherries & add chocolate chips...top w/ a drizzle of hot fudge sauce! Another good option is to add pumpkin and chocolate chips to the standard bread pudding recipe.
New Orleans style adds fruit cocktail to the batter... It's amazing
Bread pudding usually has cinnamon, vanilla, and maybe nutmeg, bourbon, etc. What we call sweet spices or warm spices. It is a poor persons dessert because everyone had some stale bread, eggs, milk, sugar (brown or white) and baked. We always ate ours with milk or cream over the top while still warm, lol. Love it to this day and I am 74.
I had bread pudding before and it was after I ate it I understood why some folks really like it. You are lucky to have that frequently.
Have you ever had bread pudding made with day-old cinnamon buns and other leftover donuts & pastries? Oh man.. takes it to a new level.. add a butter rum sauce & it's heavenly!
@@kkaye76 For me, no. It's not something on the Asian radar unless you have more American roots and influence. I would like to try but never had time to make it.
I like my bread pudding with soft serve vanilla ice cream. It looks questionable but the smell and taste is Devine 😊
@@kkaye76I was just about to post the best bread pudding I had was made from Krispy Kreme donuts. I have to try it with cinnamon rolls
The spices in bread pudding are cinnamon, nutmeg,... stuff like that. Nothing hot or pepper-like 😊
I had a disturbing thought. What if they actually find cinnamon and such spicy? Maybe that’s why they conquered half the world for spices and decided they didn’t like any of them.
@@cassandradistin9699 Cinnamon can definitely be hot if strong enough. Look at those cinnamon candies like Red Hots and Atomic Fireballs or cinnamon liqueurs like Hot Damn!
The "Spice" in Bread Pudding is usually Cinnamon, Nutmeg, and Vanilla.
"I can't lie..." I will CRY if I see you in a video where you FINALLY make it to the U.S.A.! I live in Texas and I would be ecstatic to see you enjoying some of our great places and food!
Bananas 🍌 Foster @ Brennan’s is always served “table side.” That means they cook it “in front of your table.” I have made Banana’s Foster table side before. It is so much fun to see guests ohhhing and ahhhhing. 🤣
Banana’s Foster is a very good banana dessert.
New Orleans has the best food in the world. Yes, the hospitality is the same for everyone. Brennan's does Bananas Foster at the table. Also, if you go to the Cafe Du Monde and order beignets, be sure not to wear black because you would be covered in powdered sugar by the time you leave. Also, you must order Cafe Au Lait with the beignets. So good!
💯👍🏼 I enjoy a good rice pudding with raisins😮
Lewis, sorry you are feeling bad, hope you feel better soon. These are outstanding deserts. A banana split is a banana cut in half with ice cream and some chocolate, caramel and/or strawberry sauce desert.
And, whipped cream and maraschino cherries on top!
And often pineapple icecream topping and chopped nuts ❤
The sugar is called powdered sugar. I love a good beignet! And you can’t get any better than at Café Du Monde.
Also, not all spices are hot.
Christian was the best part of that whole video! His handshake and compliment killed me! 😆😂🤣
Southern banana pudding is awesome too😊
As a Virginian, I totally agree. Banana pudding is my favorite, along with blackberry or peach cobbler.
@@katw3070 yes it is wonderful,and i bet you are a fantastic cook, my mom was from West Virginia and she was a wonderful cook 🤗
@@zoeferbrache Aww, shucks! Thanks! I try to make my food taste like my mom’s who was from Ky. and was also a great cook. I’ve never been able to duplicate her biscuits, though. Mine are ok, but not even close to hers, but I keep trying! She made strawberry-rhubarb pie that was excellent.
@@katw3070 oh my goodness that sounds amazing! Please send the recipe for your pie, I would love to try and make it🤗hope you have a very Merry Christmas Katw🤗🎄🎁
Have you ever left the house?!? You DON'T know what a banana split is? 😂
Nor does he know what powdered sugar is. He’s been seriously deprived.
@katw3070 right?!? Lol
He prob knows it as icing sugar, but still looking at it he should know
@@katw3070 .
Brennan's and bananas foster = chef's kiss! The beignet's at Cafe du Monde are usually served with their coffee which has chicory in it... Chicory? Adding chicory to coffee goes back to the Civil War when coffee was hard to come by. Chicory is the root of the endive plant, a type of lettuce. It's quite strong so it's best to order it "Au Lait" (with milk) and is mixed 1/2 hot coffee and 1/2 hot milk. The beignet's and coffee just go together! So good!
Bread pudding is baked in custard, it soaks into the bread and makes it moist. When he said spicy he didn't mean "hot" like spiced with pepper, he was talking about cinnamon, ginger, vanilla, etc in the custard.
he really doesnt understand the difference between something being spicy and spiced 🤦♂
Can you blame him, he's from the UK. They conquered the world for spices and use none of them. Just joking but also kinda not
Howdy❤I'm a true Southerner. Born & raised in SC. You need to come to SC for the food! My Banana pudding with vanilla wafers and meringue topping,old fashioned Strawberry cake,apple cake,apple fritters,cornbread & butter beans,homemade fried chicken,egg custard pie,buttermilk pie,chili beans,fat back & gravy,sweet potato pie,sweet potato casserole,meatloaf,salmon patties,etc.. All things my precious Grandma(RIP) taught me to cook. And my Southern drawl is so profound its funny,I could never & would never be able to deny I'm a True Southerner.❤ Southern hospitality is the best too. And the Beignet from Louisiana, my Grandma taught me when I was little to make these,poor man's style without the alcohol of course😅. It was a treat! Just get some canned biscuits,get out the dough,roll in to small balls & deep fry til they float,take out,drain on paper towels. While they are frying,put powdered sugar in a brown paper bag,after frying dough balls,& draining(get excess grease off) on paper towels. Then place them in the bag of powdered sugar hold bag close & shake until the fried dough balls are covered thoroughly with the powdered sugar & eat while still hot! So delicious & cheap! And Southern Iced tea(tea with ice cubes in it) is the best! Very sugary though. About 2cups sugar to a gallon of tea. Unhealthy but Yummy in moderation😊! Hope ya get to visit USA as my life's dream is to visit the UK! I enjoy your videos,ya make me giggle.
Also,a lot of people live in trailers or mobile homes(manufactured homes) because the home prices here have doubled to triple in price as of late. And a lot of British folks think that as a caravan. I had a British friend & she thought living in a mobile home was like caravan or gypsy like living and it's not. And everyone who does live in a mobile home is NOT trailer trash or poor & redneck like. TV gets that very wrong. Blessings to you & I really mean that in a nice way!❤
In the US, especially in the South, people are polite, friendly, and a bit sarcastic in their humor but not in a nasty way. Just a bantering way. Americans have a bad reputation for being rude and uncouth, but that’s the exception. We really are genuinely happy to interact with everyone and welcome them to our communities. It’s probably off putting to some the extent to which we are just so happy to see you and share our local foods, entertainment, etc. I grew up in South Louisiana where it’s not uncommon to get invited to someone’s home for a good meal and conversation. You should definitely plan on coming over and spending time in all the different parts of the country because we have many cultures to experience. And for the most part our food is amazing, especially in the South.
It's powdered sugar. Used a lot in making icing but often sprinkled on sweets like donuts or brownies.
That is powdered sugar, what you would call icing sugar, on the beignets at Cafe Du Monde. A banana split is three scoops of ice cream, usually strawberry, chocolate and vanilla, with a banana split in half and topped with syrups, whipped cream, nuts and a cherry on top.
The sugar on the Ben-yay is called "powdered sugar." It's literally regular crystalized sugar that is ground into a powder. We use it often for donuts, funnel cakes, and ben-yay.
Beignet top is powdered confectioner's sugar (what is used to make cake frosting). Beignet is pronounced "ben-yayz" ("t" is not pronounced as is common with French words).
Flambé means "to cover with liquor & then set it on fire briefly." In background when he is feeding about to cameraman, they are preparing bananas foster in a nearby table so it is standard practice.
Classic banana split is 3 scoops of ice cream (vanilla, chocolate, & strawberry) in a long dish. On either side of ice cream scoops is banana sliced lengthwise & ice cream is covered with pineapple sauce, chocolate sauce, & strawberry sauce (1 sauce per scoop) & then it is topped with whipped cream, nuts, & maraschino cherries. (Different toppings & ice cream flavors can be chosen.)
Bread pudding is made with cinnamon & nutmeg spices & frequently bourbon-infused raisins. They are using word "spicy" to mean it has flavors from spices, not from chili flavoring that most people think of as spicy. Apparently American food has a lot more flavor than British food.
They make bananas foster the same way for everyone. Setting the dish on fire and burning of the alcohol is what they were talking about when the said. “Flambé “
The sugar on the beignets ( pronounced Ben-yay) is powdered sugar, aka confectioners sugars. It’s the sugar used to make cake frosting too.

"That Must Be A Different Type Of Sugar"
You're correct, Lewis
The type of sugar that's used on those Beignets is powdered Sugar, which is also called "Confectionery Sugar"
Pretty sure it's powered/confectionars sugar on the beignet (ben-yay). It's a finer consistency than more commonly used sugars.
It is powdered sugar.
Spice describes more than just something hot, some non-hot spices can elevate a sweet dish too.😊
If you come down South, tell them it’s your first time in the South and ask for recommendations on food or things to see, most people will fall overboard trying help you and it’ll be sincere. 💕
Banana split is a bowl that can hold a scoop of vanilla ice cream, a scoop of strawberry ice cream, a scoop of chocolate ice cream in a line. Banana slice down the middle and put on each of the ice cream. Whip cream on top of each scoop of ice cream. Drizzle chocolate syrup, strawberry syrup, and caramel syrup over the hold thing. A cherry is add on top of each scoop of ice cream. Powder sugar is used on a lot of southern desserts
Since you like banana deserts, a banana split is a split banana with vanilla and strawberry and chocolate ice cream in the middle with glazed walnuts layered on top then whip cream and a cherry tops it all off. Amazing combination that tastes awesome. Then there is banana pudding in which you layer sliced bananas and vanilla wafers a couple times then pour a hot freshly prepared pudding (custard) over the bananas and the wafers , refrigerate for an hour and then you can enjoy.
"Flambe" means set on fire / cook with fire. And, yes, if you order the bananas it's served that way.
That table side bananas foster is done for everyone who orders it, and it’s even better than they can say!
Banana splits are just ice cream with half a banana on both sides traditionally served with caramel sauce and fudge whipped cream and a cherry on top
The banana dessert your family makes, with chocolate inside then grilled? I had this for the first time on a church youth group camping trip... In 1959. Guess it's been around for a while!
Yes, they do cook it at the table as far as I've been told. i'm going there next October, so I'll be able to confirm then. If someone doesn't beat me to it. A banana split is an ice cream sundae. One banana, split long ways, in a long dish, with two or three scoops of ice cream in the middle. Topped with chocolate sauce, whipped cream and other various toppings.
They are doing it at the table next to them too during the recording.
2 desserts are normally done tableside...Cherries Jubilee and Banana Fosters
The flambé process is the tableside treatment you're seeing and part of the way you make this dish (the "fire" bit). You aren't seeing a lot of that because other folk didn't all order the same thing at the same time.
It’s confectioner’s sugar. It is very finely ground to a powder.
Beignets are sooooo yummy. And it's powdered sugar (also known as confectioners sugar). I've never been to Louisiana... but even I knew it would be Cafè Dumond!
Did the foil wrapped bananas on the grill with chocolate. I did that way, way back when, as a Girl Scout. Try adding mini marshmallows too!!!😋
Bananas Foster...
Flambé means to light on fire 🔥
It is sooo good!!! No special treatment that I know of.
A Traditional Banana Split is usually served in a longish oval dish. A banana is placed on either side of the ice cream. One scoop each of strawberry, vanilla & chocolate. Topped with strawberry syrup over the Strawberry ice cream, Chocolate syrup over the chocolate & pineapple syrup over the Vanilla. The whole thing is then covered in whipped cream and sprinkled with peanuts while all 3 scoops get a maraschino cherry on top. (The fruit syrups have chunks of fruit in them.)
There are different kind of spicy.
SPICY=peppers, chili powders. Think Tex-Mex.
SPICED=Cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, allspice, ginger & etc. Basically, what you would put in cookies & cakes.
Banana Pudding, just good now matter where you get it. I will admit that the south has it down though. I personally love a good Banana Cream Pie with Meringue on top!
Feel better sweetie!
Sore throat? Gargle a few times a day with warm salt water. Also, drink hot tea with honey and lemon juice.
It’s powered sugar. Different taste and texture. Wonderful. We sprinkle on French Toast too, lots of dessert too.
The jovial service that Christan gave Josh & Ollie is called "We're so happy you're here." type of hospitality. It's more prevalent in the South, but you can find it almost anywhere. However there are indeed places that would rather hang themselves than to serve you, and you'll find those in the posh restaurants of like New York, L.A. and other uppity cities. But any regular city or small town even, the servers are usually very happy and glad you're there to enjoy their service and food. Does the Tipping Culture have something to do with it? Oh for sure, but really, it's just in America's nature to be like thus, especially if they know they're going to be filmed for segments like this.
For a nation of shopkeepers they have a hard time grasping the value of customer service.
@@JustMe-dc6ks You’re referring to the UK, of course.
Traditional Banana split: Cut a banana in half lengthwise. Take a scoop of vanilla ice cream and cover it with caramel sauce. Then there is a scoop of strawberry ice cream covered in strawberry sauce. Of course you have to have round it off with a scoop of chocolate ice cream covered in chocolate sauce or hot fudge. You then lay a half of the split banana on each side of the scoops. Top all of that off with at least one maraschino cherry and whipped cream.
It is prepared table side. You are not seeing it at other tables BECAUSE Josh and Ollie call ahead, make an appointment and do their videos at slow times of the restaurant's day. That way they get special attention.
As you may have guessed flambé means set aflame.
You actually do see them flambeing at tables in the background a couple different times, like between Ollie and the cameraman when he tries it
Actually that isn't correct. There are a couple of clips in this Jolly video where you can see a server making banana Foster tableside at nearby tables.
What isn't correct?
The dessert is prepared table side and that was not filmed during the rush.
Where is the error?
It is powdered sugar on the beignets.
Flambé means to set the alcohol in the pan on fire.
A banana split has banana, ice cream, whipped cream, maybe some chocolate or other sauce, maraschino cherries, etc. Such a treat.
American has so many different cuisines to try.
Wow, if you love bananas you will love banana splits! It's a banana split longways vs cut in half, with ice cream. You can put any topping on it and it's so good. Usually it's served with a scoop of strawberry, chocolate, and vanilla ice cream. Chocolate syrup on top. Sometimes strawberry preserves, crushed pineapple, nuts and marshmallow fluff. You can literally add any toppings and it's a banana split because of the banana inside 😂
Keep in mind that there are a number of spices used in baking; cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, allspice, anise , sessame seeds ...
Yes!!! All these are even more amazing than they say! And our service is 100% this way even when you don’t have a camera on you! If you act excited to be there, they will go overboard making you happy! Flambé is cooking the alcohol off and leaving the flavor. ❤️ another bangin reaction.
The spices they mention are not "hot" spices but ones to add flavor like vanilla and cinnamon
Lewis, if you’ve had banana custard- you’ve basically have had banana pudding! Next time add some shortbread biscuits and top it with squirt cream and that’s it 😂
My aunt made the best banana pudding I've ever had once either Thanksgiving or Christmas years ago. She baked it with meringue on top and the bananas were warm. The basic banana pudding. You take three or four bananas that are VERY ripe, we're talking black spotted (that's actually how bananas are meant to be eaten, we just haven't developed the tasted for it like the South Americans have.) You buy a box of instant banana pudding mix, make it like the directions on the box as a pie filling.You can try to slice the very ripe bananas into chips, or you can mash them and mix then with the instant banana pudding/pie filling. The biscuits they're referring to are vanilla wafers. Vanilla wafers are a very simple cookie you buy in a box. You take a casserole dish and line the bottom and sides with vanilla wafers, then pour in the banana mixture. You can mix in whipped topping if you want to. Then you cover the pudding with sliced bananas (not so ripe) and vanilla wafers and then cover that with whipped topping. Some people like to put a maraschino cherry on top, which the grand kids usually fight over. :)
Baked banana pudding is made the same way, except you don't mix in whipped topping into the banana pudding mixture and you definitely mash in the very ripe bananas into the pudding mix. You can mix sweetened condensed milk into the pudding mix if you want to make it firmer. (Aunt Linda didn't do that, btw). You line the dish with vanilla wafers, pour the mixture on top, cover it with sliced bananas and vanilla wafers, pour your meringue (or marshmallows or marshmallow cream) on top, and bake it in the oven at 350F for a few minutes until the meringue or marshmallows get toasty brown.
Kids help make this stuff, anyone can do it, if you have the ingredients. Some make their pie filling from scratch, we ain't got time for that. :)
Brennan’s is marvelous. The main dishes are amazing.
If you go and order Banana’s Foster, you’ll get it prepared tableside.
beignets (pronounced like ben yay) are typically covered with a ludicrous amount of confectioners sugar, which is the same thing as your standard granulated sugar but blended up to be much finer.
Flambe is usually table side using alcohol and flame to create an entree or dessert. It is very theatrical for sure. 🔥
A Banana Split is served in a long narrow dish with a banana split in two. Tree scoops of ice cream are served between the two banana halves and covered with three sauces. Usually the three scoops are vanilla, chocolate and strawberry with pineapple sauce over the vanilla, strawberry over the strawberry ice cream and chocolate over the chocolate ice cream. It’s topped off with whipped cream, crushed nuts and a cherry.
The beignets they are eating in Cafe du Monde in New Orleans right at the beginning are pronounced "ben-YAYS" and for the past at least 20 years they are nothing like they were originally. Now they make them and literally just dump a ton of powdered sugar on top (also called confectioner's sugar, I'm sure you can find it in the baking aisle of your supermarket). When I was a child they were more delicate, and were dusted all the way around with the powdered sugar, not buried under a heap of it. Bananas Foster was my Dad's signature dessert to make for dessert at dinner parties. Two New Orleans' after-dinner treats are both flambéd (flaming) - Bananas Foster and Café Brulot, which is a chicory coffee prepared with citrus & spices. Both are prepared tableside in a chafing dish, and the café brulot also has a special ladle for service which strains the spices & citrus peel and it is served in special tall slender footed cups. The restaurants' cups are heavier ceramic due to the use they get (you can find them online, they are frequently called café brulot diablot cups and have an image of a devil over flames which originated with the Faust opera "The Devil on Fire") but in your home you would serve it in ones made of fine china. If you've never had bread pudding, Lewis, you're missing a treat. It's divine.
I mostly remember beignet from the film "Princess and the Frog". I always wanted to try it after watching the film.
Also that banana pudding ain't like the one puddings you know. Search "*American Banana Pudding*" and it will pull up recipes for it. There's also a no-bake one.
We use Christmas spices in desserts. Cinnamon, nutmeg, Ginger, and, licorice.
Lewis, if you watch the video again, you'll see other customers in the background who have ordered Bananas Foster. Flambe is when they set the alcohol on fire. There are spices for savory and sweet dishes.
Traditional banana pudding was one of my mom's specialties. It's basically a trifle. You alternate layers of banana slices with layers of this little round cookie called a vanilla wafer, pour warm custard over it, top it with meringue, and brown the top.
No banana pudding not custard ! Whipped cream not meringue !
I said traditional. My mom was born in the early 1920s. Using instant pudding and whipped cream is a modern adaptation. @@geminiecricket4798
After all these years I have found you are my favorite channel to watch
Went to Brennan's in New Orleans last year⚜️ 💜💛💚⚜️ The bananas foster is indeed amazing, and it's cooked table side for every table. Amazing hospitality and service in general!
Bread pudding involves day(s) old bread soaked in an eggy custard. Some add cinnamon donuts to the mix. Also raisins, currents, chocolate, berries, etc. Then baked in a water bath. Topped with a sauce (whiskey, “hard” sauce, etc.). Heavenly!
Typical "traditional" Banana Split is a peeled banana split lengthways in a narrow oblong dish with three scoops of ice cream between them vanilla, chocolate, and strawberry, drizzled with caramel sauce, chocolate sauce, hot fudge sauce, a strwberry or cherry sauce, covered with whipped cream topping and chopped/crushed nuts pecans and/or roasted peanuts (sometimes candied or in a sweet syrup, all topped of with candy sprinkles.
This is how the prepare it for everyone.
A banana split is 3 scoops of ice cream, traditionally strawberry, chocolate, and vanilla, with a split banana on the sides. Then covered with chocolate sauce, strawberry sauce, and pineapple sauce. Then add whipped cream, chopped peanuts, and a cherry.
Banana split. 3 scoops of ice cream
The classic is 3 scoops 1 of vanilla, 1 scoop of chocolate, 1 scoop of strawberry ice cream. You then use fudge toping, pineapple topping & strawberry topping over ice cream sit s banana in half length wide put on side of ice cream. Cover in whipped cream & add a cherry on top. Enjoy
We have dishes for this desert they are called banana boats.
The sugar is powdered sugar. Very fluffy and dry. Delicious.
Banana Foster usually is always made tableside. That’s the whole point the showmanship of it and be able to smell the flavors blending.
A banana split is an old American soda shop desert. It’s a banana split in half laid in a long bowl. 3 scoops of ice cream with whip cream on top with cherries on top of that. Chocolate syrup and sprinkles.
The desert you described here in Iowa we call a banana boat. We leave it in the skin . Peel one strip(leaving it attached on the bottom} slice banana in half length wise add chocolate chips, marshmellows and nuts pull the peel back over wrap in tin foil and place over coals in your campfire. These are really good.
Powdered sugar. It’s extremely popular in the U.S. and its sweet but like kind of airy, because it’s ground so finely
The sugar is powdered sugar. A banana split is usually scoops of ice cream, a banana cut long ways and put on both sides of the dish, your choice of syrups on top, nuts, whipped cream, and a cherry on top. A lot of restaurants will prepare table side if there are items on the menu that call for it. Spiced does not mean hot. There are tons and tons of spices to put in food that adds to the taste and has nothing to do with making the dish hot/spicey. Banana pudding is one of my favorite desserts and there are variations of it. I'm picky because my grandmother made the best and every time I order it I compare it to hers 😊
Having been to New Orleans, The beignets are actually smothered in powdered sugar (frosting sugar to british I believe) and Brennans has outstanding food. The Bananas Foster is served to the diner at their table just like it was done for the "Jolly" guys. Its really delicious! Bourbon street and New Orelans IS an experience!!
It's called confectionery sugar, icing sugar, or 10X sugar. They sift the sugar over the beignets (bin-yay) which makes it light and fluffy.
A banana split is an ice cream sundae, the banana is split, it's usually all vanilla ice cream scoops, sometimes chocolate in the.center as there are 3 scoops, one is drizzled in pineapple, one strawberry one hot fudge, whipped cream and a cherry
Banana’s Foster IS the best dessert I ever had. The caramelized brown sugar in butter with rum and banana liquor is absolutely mind-blowing. With the warm banana and cold vanilla ices cream it’s epic. I highly recommend it.
The bread pudding’s spices are cinnamon and nutmeg, not anything hot. It’s usually dripping with rum or bourbon.
Banana splits are ice cream deserts made with three scoops of ice cream between two slices of banana covered in chocolate sauce. Delicious! Oh I forgot the whipped cream and cherry on top.😊
Beignets are pronounced Ben-Yay. That's powdered sugar which you call Icing sugar. Flambé is process of adding liquor to a dish and set it on fire until the alcohol burns off. Banana split is a split banana topped with 3 scoops of ice cream, chocolate, strawberry, vanilla drizzled with a sauce (chocolate, pineapple and/or strawberry), topped with whipped cream, chopped nuts and Maraschino cherries. You'd like banana pudding because you love bananas.
Spices aren't just savory. Cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, allspice those are spices used in baking and that's what they're referring to with spices for desserts.
Banana split is ice cream with your choice of sauce on top (chocolate, strawberry carmel) a banana split in half on both sides, usually whip cream, nuts and a cherry on top
that is called confectioners sugar which is the consistency of cornstarch or talcum powder, if you don't have that in England, put regular granulated white sugar in a blender and turn it into dust and you will be very close.
The first item they ate was covered in powered sugar it’s fluffy 😊
Cafe Du Monde serves beignets pronounced ben-yay. They are deep
fried yeast dough with tons of powdered or icing sugar and the famous Cafe au lait, that's coffee with chicory and hot milk blended together. If you like sugar in your coffee, dip the beignet in the cafe' au lait ....yummmm!!!!
Bananas Foster tastes amazing!!
Slice a banana into slices, mix it up with vanilla pudding and layer some vanilla wafer cookies and whipped cream on top. There you have New Orleans banana pudding. 😂
I hope you feel better soon, Lewis.

When they said the bread pudding was spiced, they meant warm autumnal dessert friendly spices like cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves.
It's powdered sugar. We cut open the banana and put chocolate and marshmallows in it and then put in oven until chocolate melts. It's called a banana boat. The banana splits I've always had are 3 scoops of ice cream with chocolate sauce, strawberry sauce, and pineapple sauce, a split banana and whip cream on top with some crushed peanuts
And maraschino cherries. 😊
"I LOVE banana...Whats a Banana Split!!?...." Bless your heart.
I make it at home but an amateur version. Just melt butter, add brown sugar, melt, split bananas, flip and stir around until bananas are warmed and start to turn soft. Top on cold vanilla ice cream and enjoy. No alcohol and no fire. Not as good but still so good. That's why we, south Louisiana puts up with the heat, which we got up to 104° for several days a few months ago, hurricanes and roaches. We stay for the food!! Get Emeril Lagasse's cookbook to cook New Orleans food. He was taught by chef front here. I cook somewhat like he does. Or should I say, he cooks like we do. He has a awesome but simple to make bread pudding!!
A Banana Split is a split banana with ice cream between the slices and 3 sauces on top - chocolate, pineapple and Strawbery. Then add some whipped cream on top and a cute little cherry lol
It's called powdered sugar that covers the beignets. Pro tip, don't wear dark colored clothing when eating them, you'll end up with powdered sugar all over the dark clothing lol. Flambe means to cook table-side using a big ass flame process. You go to Brennan's, and each bananas foster is prepared table-side for you by your server...
