I'm not allowed to pan fry, because 8 of 10 times it ends up popping out and badly burning me. lol It's not nearly so bad with the Fry Daddy, because it automatically heats to the right temperature and maintains it, so the oil isn't as energetic. No, I'm not a spokesperson, even though this does sound like a commercial.

    • @monikapacholek823
      @monikapacholek823 Před 3 lety +6

      I've never had a problem with frying until about a year ago when I was heating up just a bit of oil in a pan and I somehow forgot about it, idk how. I start to smell smoke and that made me remember about the pan so I ran into the kitchen to see the oil in the pan on fire. I was 24 when this happened and unfortunately, I didn't know how to put it out correctly. I panicked and took the pan to the sink to run some water on it... big mistake. It caused the flame to get so big. Luckily, I managed to put out the fire but panicking and not knowing how to put it out made it worse. I really freaked out once the flame got so big the second I put water on it. I did end up putting it out and nothing else caught fire. The cabinets about my sink are white and because of the huge flame that touched them, they were covered in sud. After that, I looked up how to put out different types of fires like oil fires if it happened and also just how to prevent them. Now that I did my research, I don't get scared cooking with oil. You'd think that experience would scare me enough to never cook with it again but learning more about stuff like that, it just made me confident and I'm not scared working with it now.

      I'd say don't be afraid of deep frying. You should look up some tutorials on it, and proper, at-home fry safety. Things like "Don't fill your pan over half way with oil" and "If you ever have a grease fire, cover it with a damp kitchen towel" are the two biggest tips for at-home frying.

  • @pasteycracker
    @pasteycracker Před 3 lety +28

    Canadian here and, I'll tell you, all of those were good! There's a very traditional way that's it can be made (Montreal purists will say it's the only way) but when you travel around Canada, poutine is everywhere and it varies quite a bit. Only hard requirements are crispy fries, squeeky curds, and a medium-thick gravy. Toppings are NOT cheating and are very common; pulled pork, bacon, peppers, fried onions, you name it! There only bad poutine is the ones with soggy fries, shredded cheese, or super thin gravy.
    Some tricks I use for my favorites:
    Double fry your fries, first low, then high. Gets them right crispy.
    Get your curds fresh from a farm nearby, if you can. That squeek makes a big difference.
    Darken the roux for the gravy and put in a little more black pepper than you think you need. That toasted flour flavour will make a world of difference and the fattiness from the frying, cheese, and gravy will cut nicely from the pepper.

    • @itzmrbeau6386
      @itzmrbeau6386 Před rokem +1

      Crispy fries are not important in a poutine and ppl argue and prefer them lightly crispy and soggy. Shredded cheese is passable cause it’ll still taste good and most importantly gravy should only be made using a roux flavourful broth and salt/pepper to taste

    There are LOTS of places that have poutine with toppings that are served as a meal instead of a side dish in Canada. There are also lots of places that use shredded cheddar cheese instead of cheese curds (YUCK!). "Real" relating to poutine is pretty subjective IMHO... there are many great poutine places in Canada, but more horrible ones than you can shake a stick at! Despite my dislike for Sam, the result from his recipe is the closest to something I would expect. I do prefer a beef gravy to chicken gravy, but Sam's is still the best looking. Crispier fries are required... they sog up pretty good with the gravy on them, so there's the contrast of texture.

    I know I'm late to the game, but I'm from Quebec, born and raised in one of the most French Canadian regions. The best poutines have the most half ass ingredients and are made almost in a rush. You use store bought sauce from a CAN, frozen fries fried to golden perfection, and cheese curds that have been sitting on a random table in the charcuterie section of your local grocery store. And you stack that shit in this order: fries, cheese and a butt load of it, sauce!
    Personally I don't like runny sauce. I like thick sauce that almost coagulates, and I add extra salt and beef powder when I prepare the sauce. That's it! Poutines were meant to be the American equivalent to like hot dog cart type of food. So the crappier and faster you make it, the better lmao
    That's my two cents. Thank you for coming to my Ted talk.

    • @ashrowan2143

      You've gotta use the cheese curds that are out on a counter if you can get your hands on them, refrigerating cheese curds affects the taste and texture which is why your best poutine tends to be made near cheese makers because they buy fresh curds and can keep them at room temp before using them

Never tried it in America or in Canada where I guess it'd be done exactly how it should be so I'm sure my opinion doesn't really matter when it comes to this... but I'd feel like using crispy fries would be better because they're gonna soak up the gravy and get soft anyway. Using fries that aren't crispy would just make it all like sludge with the gravy. I mean, your comment does say that's how it should be but I personally just feel like the gravy on crispy fries making them soft but not like sludge would be better. Then again, what do I know? 😂

    As a Canadian, it’s fries, curds and deep gravy. Period.

      And not crispy fries. They're supposed to bend and fold when you stab the heap of gooey goodness.

    When you make a roux for a brown gravy you gotta GOTTA brown the flour more. It should be toasty before you start adding liquids.
