The thing to remember about ANZAC biscuits (legally can't be called cookies in australia, no I'm not exaggerating) is that they were made to be easily made at home with cheap ingredients, be a tasty snack, AND last for weeks or months, as they were originally made by families here and sent via mail to soldiers deployed overseas. People who try them expecting something like an american cookie will be VERY disappointed :D
agree and the store bought ones are never as good as the ones you make yourself anyway.
@@Dr_KAP Agreed, the ones you get at woolies in packs of like 24 are pretty decent though.
And salt and sugar in them helped with the preservative aspect. Modern versions of this biscuit keep going low salt, or less sugar. Which is fine for everyday usage, but these biscuits could have taken a good month or two to get to the intended recipient.
Made the correct way they are chewy in the middle.
The chicken salt needs to go on hot chips (French fries). We call French fries, chips and we call crisps, chips also 🤙
I've always called thin hot chips, like from Maccas, fries, and thick ones chips.
Yes. Hot chips! I was like nooo what are you doing lol
I remember buying a Wagon Wheel for 5 cents in the 70s at the school Tuckshop.
Chicken salt goes on hot food. By the way, it's not chicken flavoured; it was invented as a flavoured salt to go on chicken. We love it on hot chips (french fries, though ours are usually thicker).
Fantales are just a caramel toffee coated in chocolate, but you have to read the wrapper!
Fantales were designed to take a longer time to eat, very popular taking them to the movies. As with all harder sweets/lollies, you sit them in your mouth to soften first, do not go in teeth ablazing and try to crack.
Back when I was in primary school in the 1970's, wagon wheels used to come in a waxed paper bag that was open at the top! It wasn't sealed at all. And yet we lived... :)
ANZAC biscuits (They must by federal law be called a biscuit) are rolled oats, flour and golden syrup (also know as treacle) now there is some variance in the recipe some add butter some and desiccated coconut they were designed to contain nothing that could go off or rancid in transit by sea. The CZcams channel 'Tasting History' did a brilliant episode on them giving the history and some information about Gallipoli
Golden syrup and treacle are NOT the same thing, you will be very disappointed if you use treacle in ANZAC biscuits.
Treacle is darker than golden syrup actually; has a "deeper" flavour. That's why golden syrup is golden. Not so dark as treacle. Made from the same base ingredient though. If sticking to recipes that require either one, they're not really interchangeable taste-wise. The next step into richer flavour after treacle is molasses.
basic Anzacs are rolled oats, dessicated coconut, golden syrup, sugar, flour, bicarb soda & butter
Castor sugar is a fine grade sugar for baking.
We've had huge floods and rain, rain, rain, therefore salt has become a block . Believe it or not, salt is not a killer its the sugar. Originally Fantails had a little blurb about different stars. Homemade Anazac's will never be replaced by manufactured
Anzacs. Easy to make, yes there is coconut, oats, golden syrup, sugar and butter.
You need to do tim tam slams, you bite off opposite ends of the tim tam and use it as a straw in either hot chocolate or coffee, once melted you put the whole biscuit in your mouth and that's called a slam
We don’t call anything crisps 😂 that’s the UK.
Some of us do. Smiths Crisps are the best, North, South, East and West. Old jingle. 😉
@@redwarpy 😆 I’ve never met an Aussie who says crisps 😂 I know they say it in tv commercials sometimes.
@@Dr_KAP you never heard that Australian jingle before, probably an age thing it was normal back then to call them crisps in Australia. I came to Australia when I was 3.5 years old from Scotland.
24:40 One fantale and they're fighting lol.
Twirl is probably my favourite chocolate bar too.
Red Rock Deli make the best chips in Australia in my opinion. Their ‘sweet chilli & sour cream’ flavour is phenomenal too.
Fantales are the best - free education on movies as you chew away then head off to the dentist LOL. Chicken Salt is the best - I use it on all my meals.
There is no coconut in an ANZAC biscuit. There is Golden Syrup and rolled oats. They are darker than the one you tried and I love them when they are crunchy but soft inside. White a Tim Tams were my favourite and you are right, white chocolate is not chocolate but it tastes like it is. I like white Caramilk Chocolate too but I can eat nothing on that list now or in that box. Castor Sugar is just white refined sugar but finer and easier for cake making.
Coconut is an ingredient in ANZAC biscuits. Always has been.
Red velvet is red dye and vanilla flavouring..
Caster sugar is fine refined sugar.. fine for baking
Really nice box!!
We get heaps of Australian products in nz too, so these snacks are quite common here too. Nice food review 👍
love you guys , never thought watching people eat would be so entertaining
Let's settle an argument about what ingredients were in the original ANZAC biscuits. I have my great-grandmother's hand written recipe of the ANZAC biscuits that she sent to her ANZAC brothers fighting in Europe in WWI. They were: 2 cups of rolled oats, 1 cup of sugar, I cup of plain flour (combine these in a big bowl). In a saucepan melt 2 tablespoons of golden syrup and 2 tablespoons of butter, then stir in I teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda and watch it foam up! Add this to the dry ingredients and mix well. Place on oven tray and cook until golden brown. And that's it!! There was no coconut. The original biscuits were as big as a bread and butter plate, and quite thick, and sent in care packages for the guys to break them up and share them with their fellow soldiers. These ingredients were selected because they lasted well without going off during the long sea journey to Europe, and were also considered good to eat when they were suffering from dysentery, as many were in the trenches. The recipe may have changed since then, but that was the genuine, original recipe of ANZAC biscuits. Thanks for writing it down for me to share it over 110 years later, great-grandma! PS. Sadly, both of her brothers were K.I.A. and buried in France. RIP.
My grandmother made the best Anzac biscuits - heavy on the treacle, light on the coconut and super this and crispy.
Also you need to get the chicken twisties! 🤩
Agreed on the twirl, my favourite standard chocolate bar.
Terasa mcm nak pasang balik tanda merah yg dah ku padam lamaaa dulu..
I love anything white choc. Anzac do have coconut in them and I prefer mine on the soft side opposed to the crispy side, and are way tastier straight outta the oven, or shortly after😋. Getting the Anzac in the post is better than having none at all , well done sender 👏 👍
Guys white chocolate IS NOT fake!! It’s just a higher proportion of cocoa butter than cocoa solids in comparison with something like milk or dark chocolate.
You need to check out the Tim Tam ads. We all wish for a never ending pack of Tim Tams
Sweet Chilli and Sour Cream is the best flavour in Red Rock Deli range
Don’t spread the Vegemite very thick,you start with just a smear.
White chocolate is not fake. It's simply made from the the cocoa butter, rather than the cocoa nibs..
You guys should look up the old ads for wagon wheels
Twirl are choc-coated Flake, a Flake is a chocolate swirl log.
I'm an Aussie & love twirls
Fantales are sweets people particularly bought at the movies.
Honey soy chicken are my favorites Red Rock Deli are the best chips
hey guys, as others have said you need to try the chicken salt on hot chips. french fries if you like, they are different specific kind of chip, but of course both made from potatoes. i grew up getting fish and chips as a treat for dinner on friday or saturday nights, nice big thick cut chips and battered sausages too.
What were you thinking putting chicken salt on a bagged potatoe chip
ANZAC BICKIES
1 cup plain flour (all purpose flour)
▢ 1 cup rolled oats
▢ 1 cup desiccated coconut , unsweetened
▢ 3/4 cup white sugar , preferably caster / superfine
▢ 150g / 5oz unsalted butter
▢ 4 tbsp golden syrup (Note 1)
▢ 1 tsp baking soda (bicarbonate soda)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 180°C/350°F (160°C fan forced)
Line 2 baking trays with baking paper.
Mix flour, oats, coconut and sugar in a bowl.
Place butter and golden syrup in a saucepan over medium high heat and stir until butter has melted.
Add baking soda and stir to combine - it will fizz up, this is normal. Immediately remove from heat.
Pour butter mixture into flour and mix until just combined.
Roll level 1 tablespoon mixture into balls, flatten into patties. Place balls, 2.5 cm/1" apart, on prepared trays.
Bake for 15 minutes, swapping trays halfway during cooking, or until deep golden. (Bake 12 min for chewy biscuits!)
Stand on trays for 5 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool - they harden as they cool!
Recipe Notes:
1. Golden syrup - amber coloured sweet syrup primarily used for baking purposes in Australia and in the UK. Has a caramel-like flavour. Best substitutes:
1 tbsp light molasses + 3 tbsp honey or light corn syrup
1 tbsp treacle + 3 tbsp honey or light corn syrup
Why unsalted butter? Salt is a preservative, and would have been included in the original, surely? Unless people churned their own butter without salt in those days, which they would NOT have unless they didn't have any or the butter was going to be consumed within a day or two, the original recipe would have used BUTTER, which contained salt. Salt also makes any of the sugar content taste sweeter. Which is why salt is included in so many sweet things. Thank you for the recipe and method, however, much appreciated.
Caster sugar is white sugar ground a little bit finer than table sugar but not as fine as icing sugar. It was originally for sprinkling out of a sugar caster or with a casting spoon (which is a spoon with little holes in it for sprinkling sugar). And it has nothing to do with castor oil.
Boys you have to read the wrappers on the Fantails while eating them.
Chicken salt on crumb or battered fish with chips ( Hot fries or wedges)
Twirls are awesome!! similar to them are flakes, the OG twirl, we used to get them added to soft serves at maccas for 20c
We love our chicken salt. I love it on hot buttered popcorn too. Actually, anything you put salt on, replace it with chicken salt.
White chocolate is made with cocoa butter and caster sugar is what you call superfine. The best Anzac biscuits are homemade but you should always have it with a cup of tea to dunk it in.
Guys - u have had the White Tim Tams a few times - I’ve sent you Tim Tams which included the white Tim Tams
Also re ANZAC biscuits - they can taste different all depends on who makes the - u can also get soft and hard ANZAC biscuits
But u should google how to make them and cook some up
Chippies with chicken salt. Dang all my favs. Milkoes and twisties and fantails. Honey soy is so good. All that is yummy and I grew up on these treats. Red and green frogs. Epic dudes cheers. MATE!!
Btw fantails used to be at the corner shop where fantails were 5cents each and were called 'cobbers' cobbers.
When you say Graham it sounds like gram lol
ANZAC biscuits from the store is completely different to home baked ones!! Their not hard to make if you have the correct recipe. They have golden syrup, rolled oats, flour and sugar. Eat them with a cup of tea as that's tradition. Take care guys 🤗🤗💖
And dessicated coconut is essential.
@@kathleenmayhorne3183 yes lol I forgot that one. Thank you 👍👍🤗
Coconut wasn’t in the original but it’s yum so add it if you like it 👍🏼
Put the open salt in the fridge
Castor sugar is what you call superfine sugar. ANZAC biscuits can be made with or without coconut. Home made are best.
The restaurant food anywhere depends on the ingredients. All the immigrants, running restaurants in Australia, will tell you that their food tastes better in Australia than in their own country. That's simply because the ingredients here are better and fresher.
It's Murray River salt... as in salt from the Murray River. They're pink salt flakes.
Hi! Watching your video from Down Under! Just wanted to warn you about the Fantales, the are AMAZING, however they can be hard, so just be careful of your teeth! They are very yum! Glad you are enjoying the Aussie snacks! Peace and Blessings from Australia.
Desiccated coconut is very finely grated dried coconut. Not like the stuff you get in the US which are coconut shavings . Caster sugar is your equivalent of confectioners sugar , sugar in Australia comes in regular granules you would use in coffee or tea , caster sugar for baking and icing sugar which is your version of powdered sugar and is used to make icing on cakes and to make frosting. Jeez that Anzac had so many preservatives in it ,home made is better every time.
Icing sugar is our equivalent of confectioners sugar. Caster sugar is just very fine granules of regular sugar.
Flake twirl and aero bars are basically just chocolate with air inside. But they are sp much better than a standard choc bar.
Twirl are nice but they are just flakes dipped In choc. I also recommend getting home made anzac biscuits. Packet biscuits are pretty average, that smell is golden syrup, I believe you guys don't have that there
Maize is the proper name for corn. Corn is actually a generic term for all cereal crops, as in the Corn Exchange in the UK.
Anzac biscuits are basically made from flour, rolled oats, sugar, margarine (for its keeping qualities, but you can use butter), dessicated coconut and golden syrup. That toasted flavour is probably the golden syrup, which gives everything a butterscotch taste. They're very easy to make.
I was thinking they were tasting the golden syrup too
G'day M8, I suggest that you try the white tim tams in a slam with strawberry flavour milk (especially good for munchies lol) & you guys haven't had Anzac biscuits till you've had home made, we'll send recipe soon as we can
Home mades the best
Do you know why you get the "munchies"? Because that stuff that precedes the munchies makes your blood sugar drop alarmingly. I've often wondered if it would be useful with people who have Type I diabetes, instead of insulin....
@@crazymusicchick I did. Worked at a men only (except for four women) company who employed men only, and boss asked me to make a salad for a big Christmas get together for over a hundred people (invited were men). I know how men view rabbit food, but I made my Surprise Salad, and they all loved it so much I had to go buy more ingredients and make a fresh batch during the get together. Guys were coming up to me and complimenting me on the salad lol. So I "did win friends with salad". Lmao.
@@Kayenne54 it's a joke name haha also it's from my favourite show
@@crazymusicchick Lol
Sadly all chicken salt clumps. You just gotta take the top.off the shaker, get a fork or knife and glide it through the salt.
Just saying but most Aussies would go for wagon wheels over TimTams any day. The only reason we don't is because Wagon Wheels are expensive.
OMG! You guys! chicken salt is for hot chips or what you call French fries! 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Bit of information for you but back around 1998 samboy chips come with a season sachet inside so if you wanted extra flavour.
BTW atomic tomato is the best samboy flavour lol
Gotta have the chicken salt on hot chips... you'll never go back!
Unless, sadly, you are allergic or have a reaction to msg 😔
@@annee4193 They don't all have msg, Mitani is one that is all natural, vegan, no msg or gluten. I'm sure there are others but you might want to look them up online. Hope that's helpful.
We call everything chips ,hot chips potato chips
It’s Fantales! Fantales - It’s Fantales! Then you worked out it was fantales. They are brilliant and take work to eat.
Fantails are BRILLIANT! Hopefully you tried them?! 👍👍👍👍
Yeah nothing taste better than making your own ANZAC bikkie’s the ones in the shops are ok but not quite the same.. love our snacks they are so yummy!!
When I was a kid I would look down on anyone who tried to serve me packaged Anzac bikkies. Was spoiled for choice by my grandmothers home made ones 🤣.
Caster sugar is what you call super fine sugar.
Honey Soy chips are amazing and addictive 😍
If you think Twirls are good, wait until you try a Flake. Basically a Twirl without the chocolate coating, so you get even more of that airy, flaky goodness.
Twirls are so good and this Aussie would agree that they do stand side by side with the Tim Tam
You have to pick the wagon wheel apart layer by layer its so much fun.
Boys! You need to put that chicken salt on hot chips (french fries), not on chips (crisps)
I prefer Twirls to tim tam's
Caster sugar is known as confectionary sugar in the USA
I pick Twirls over Tim Tams every time
castor sugar is not as fine as icing sugar but its more fine then normal sugar
its oats flour sugar golden syrup butter baking soda desiccated coconut and boiling water mixed then cooked tho im sure your right and the store brought stuff has preservatives as well
what's interesting is our department of veterans affairs has full rights to declare what is and is not allowed to be called an Anzac biscuit and will not allow any deviation from the recipe
Honey Soy Chicken chips… my favourite…😋. Once the packet is open I need to finish. Twirl bars I like as a snack, often pickup a bar at the supermarket check out. Tim Tams I have in the evening with a coffee. 👍😋🇦🇺
Chicken salt goes on fresh hot chips lol.
Anyone seen me myself and irene where jim carrey gets cotton mouth? That's what i felt when they put chicken salt on samboys 😂😂😂
Nooo chicken salt goes on fries (hot chips) and there are so many different brands available some better than others , also white chocolate isn't chemical's it cocoa butter ,sugar , milk solids
Why would you put salt on already salted potato chips (crisps)? - chicken salt goes on hot potato chips (you call fries). LOL. Yeah, gotta love Wagon Wheels! And yes, Twirls shit all over Tim Tams! LOL. Anzac biscuits should be home made to get the authentic flavour - they are very simple to bake. 😉
You dont put the chicken salt on potato chips it goes on hot chips. Yes i love twiles
Yeah I’m a twirl fan they are delicious and we have a choc bar called a flake it’s delicious too
Castor sugar is fine grain sugar. You should try making some Anzac bikkies. I personally take offense to any premade biscuit cause it really doesn’t taste right.
*It’s delicious and it’s …. CHOCOLATE!* 😀💜
We did hear it 😀
Home made ANZAC biscuits are 100% better than a packaged one. I’ve never had one with coconut in it. 38:22
Nice one guys
Hasn't anybody taught you guys how to do a Tim Tam slamm?
Didn’t realise chicken salt came with child proof locks
RED ROCK DELI make the best chips....
Geez, I really started something with that first Aussie box I sent all that time ago……
Thank you.
Twirls are sometimes used on ice cream instead of flakes as they hold together better well at least my local ice cream van dose n maccas
caster sugar is a finer grade of standard white sugar
This Aussie reckons Red Rock Deli Salt and Vinegar are the bomb!!!
not enough to compare it to a timtam but twirls are still verry good
Caster sugar is a really fine sugar. I prefer mint/choc biscuits to Tim-Tams, just saying. Looks like you guys got a really nice selection of snacks.
Wagon Wheels are the best. They have been around for like 65 years. Delicious. We love em. I'm just waiting for youguys to hit the Honey Soy chips. My favourite!! I think you'll like them. :))))))) Fantails are a v old Aussie treat. Chocolate and chewy caramel, with a story on the wrapper...
Absolutely love twirls as much as Tim tams
I call that Unhealthy Snack Package.
By the way phezz, I found that you don’t need to diet, you just need to a five k run every day
I prefer a Wagon Wheel to a Tim Tam any day. I'll have a Tim Tam if someone is offering but I would never buy a packet. If I buy a chocolate biscuit it's usually Arnott's Caramel Crowns or Arnott's Gaiety Chocolate Wafers soooo yum! Great Vid I really enjoy watching you guys eat.
