fun fact. Danish creamery, despite its name, is made in California and is not sold or produced in Denmark
Can confirm as a Dane! We have Lurpak and Bakkedahl as the main butter produceres
This is correct. It was established in California in the year 1895, with employees primarily consisting of Danish immigrants to America at the time.
It's tasty butter regardless tho
@@mollywhoppedsouls_pvp It's honestly meh compared to actual european butter. I'd place it under lurpak
Was pretty obvious from the shape and colour, looks nothing like Scandinavian butter at all.
"Hey Danish Creamers, wanna sponsor me with butter?"
"Sure, how much do you need?"
"Yes."
Danish Creamers: *...Yes.*
everyone knows Swedish cream tastes a lot nices. Higher longitude means better cream.
Now "danish creamers" is in liquidation T-T
That shot of Alvin with his hood up and apron and gloves on makes him look like he just stepped out of the Breaking Bad lab
Breaking Bab
Honestly it reminded me of Yeat lol
they got sponsored by butter and went all out and it is fantastic
Look after the stream of very meh sponsors a butter company feels refreshing
@@winnamon7587 So much more likely to use a creator's sponsor if it's something related to what I'm watching.
@williamreinhard yeah for once I saw myself saying "huh, I should get some
And I’m here for it!
I love learning new ways to use scraps. I hate throwing away and wasting food.
One of my favorite things about this channel, pretty sure no food ever goes to waste with them :) well, unless it ends up on the floor... but they never toss "scraps" as far as I know!
Check out sortedfood, they do A LOT of waste free cooking
That's also a thing that takoyaki pans are great at. I've somewhat used leftover food to make newer, more self-contained balled meals.
Just eat the scraps
Its not that hard
I love how instead of just your typical one recipe and done, this channel makes two whenever there's edible scraps.
Imagine a series where Alvin revists some of these recipes (like Botched) for another try called "Again with Alvin"
Accidents with Alvin
"So how much butter went into these layers?"
"Yes."
If your watching this between normal sleeping hours..
i salute you 🫡
"why can't I find any butter in all the nearby stores?
LOL
The other reason the bread wasn't as springy other than the high heat is that you need to let the bead cool to room temp for about along as it was baking.
I like fresh, warm bread as much as the next guy, but the reason for making multiple breads is so you can eat one warm while the others cool so they can form their texture and flavor more.
I was taught it's because of the steam, it makes the bread wet.
Yup, Alvin Failed. If babish fails, he does it again. I’m kinda disappointed that Alvin does not hold himself to the same standard.
Kouign-amann literally means "butter cake" - and it's awesome! Totally worth your time to make if you've never had it
Thanks for writing the name, I only found recipes for quinoa croissants :D
I have only heard the kouign amann in great British baking show and never knew how it was spelled
I didn't like the taste of it when I made it.
It's like croissant, but with brioche dough, and in a cube.
As a Dane, I have never heard of Danish Creamery.
> European style butter.
What does that even mean? And it’s still in stick shape!
@@Jonpoo1he explained in the video lol
Danish Creamery is a dairy, in California, started in 1895 by Danish immigrants to the United States.
same as haegen Dazs, its just to fool dumb American consumers
Yeah, to be fair even as someone who regularly has European butter in the states, I have never heard of Danish Creamery. Though nothing would make me swap from Kerrygold at this point.
Did anyone else get a Danish Creamery AD just to start the video and see that it's ALSO sponsored by Danish Creamery?
Needs more layers
Needs more layers
Need more butter
That name🫵😂
That profile pic
At least
Another great butter option is Vital Farms. 85% butterfat just like Danish Creamery and supports independent American farms. Comes with a premium but the taste is well worth it. Not sure I have seen Danish Creamery on any shelves here in Nashville, but if I do, ill give it a try!
“BUTTERED TOAST!!!
- Ed, Ed,Edd&Eddy
This comment made me 😆
Life has many doors Ed boys!
Today ill be making buttered toast and gravy from ed edd eddy...
I clicked on this video with the explicit intention of finding this comment.
I was hoping for this comment!
To quote Jake, the dog from adventure Time: I used so much butter, this whole place is butter!
Ed would be proud of you
Buttered toast!
What about edd
@@everia_games he would be proud too
As for Eddy, we all know he would try to sell it for a quarter
Life has many doors, Ed-boy
I feel like I just watched a nine minute commercial.
I'm gonna be honest, when I saw the thumbnail I thought it was making a massive 3 Musketeers bar.
Thankfully, I am not disappointed by the incredible butter toast.
Alvin has to be one of the best additions to the BCU, love his videos
What I like about the anything videos is that Alvin never lets anything go to waste.
I prefer my butter salted. One can skip any salt a recipe needs, or at least cut it in half. A slice of butter on warm, fresh toasted crumpets with a drizzle of honey over it is a nice treat. Probably even better with home-made crumpets, but I get store-bought.
I think Alvin does too. Even when he said it was unsalted in the VO, for the lamination, he was still using the same orange-labelled salted sticks he'd used in the dough.
So many of these videos involve videos from real restaurants and bakeries- I’m gonna need Alvin to make a list of all the places in the inspiration videos so I have a travel bucket list 😂
I love watching those channels. Those food making ASMR's are so calming.
LOVE butter and toast! Perfect combo
French funfacter here! i have 3 funfacts for ya today about what we saw in the video:
- first, salted butter is very well known in France and kind of a speciality. Why? Cause its made mostly in Brittany (Bretagne), other part of France doesnt use it and dont produce it anymore cause one day, a king decided to tax salt. Everyone was using it to salt butter, and they stopped, but people in Brittany didnt want to and started a riot. They got exempted from the tax and they could continue to produce it with salt. Now, its very famous that only that part of France is using it. Same thing happened with driving tax and Brittany (Bretagne) is the only place you dont pay those taxes when you drive a long or short distance in France in highways.
- Then, to talk about Bretagne again, Kouign-amann you did in the videos with left overs was created in Bretagne with left overs too! We are not sure how or why, but its maybe because flour was pretty rare and expesive, but not butter and sugar. Someone tried to so a puff pastry with a different ratio than usual and ended up with this and like it. Its usually make with left overs!
ALVIN!!! I hate waisting anything so I appreciate you showed what you did with your scraps. I will definitely do that.
Ed: BUTTER TOAST!!!!!
Still can't beat simple toast with butter at 2am in the morning .
Alvin always looks like he just broke in to steal a quick bite
"butter and toast eddy,butter and toast"
90,s kids will get it.
i didn't know butter toast was a thing... but I'm not surprised
I love stuff like that! I think I might even try this myself. Just got to find these containers.
I love the super dark crust, reminds me of my local Japanese bakery where I get my shokupan from (they also do a croissant/brioche-style dough)
again, cant state it enough, I really respect you putting an emphasis on sharing what you make with friends instead of the individually overconsuming or being wasteful.
individually overconsuming can be fun though
🤓
Thank you guys for always adding perfect subtitles!
Somewhere in the world, in some cartoon culture-de-sac, Ed is consciously licking his lips.
Baked in a buttery flaky crust 😎
Now this is the type of simple meal I can actually make from this channel. Very nice.
Everyone already knows despite the sponsor, this needs to be made with Kerrygold Irish butter, there is no other butter.
Only Alvin Zhou, can make a video about making a burnt block of butter entertaining
and here I thought they were gonna make toast and then put 243 layers of butter on top.
I absolutely love how Alvin always uses the scraps to make other things - same here, at the very least, it becomes Chef's snacks....
I'm more excited about the scrap pastries than the actual bread
Kaela looks so elegant and cute!
Me: "Wait, its all butter?"
Alvin: "Always has been"
Just in case you missed that, this video is brought to you by DANISH!!! CREAMERY!!!
For those things to really pop, you HAVE to let the bread cool first then reheat if you want warm bread. You get better pictures and a much better end product.
I wish the bakeries in my city made something like this.
Love your vids Alvin.
Hi from Taiwan. Always enjoying Alvin's cooking and fantastic job!
That looks awesome. Just like all the recipes
"Hey boss, do you think we can pack in a few more layers to make it an even 250?"
John Mulaney talking as a flight attendant: "NNNOOOOOHHHH!"
Grimes would love this!
It's nice to see that despite it not being perfect, he still leaned into the finished dish and enjoyed it. 👍
I wish I had the patience to make a recipe like this
Alvin gained 5 pounds that day...
could you link the reference video? it looks like a comfy watch
Looks delicious
I took my glasses off to put on a sweatshirt while you were examining the cubes' bake and it looked like you were pulling apart a brisket
Got to say really love the no-waste policy! Growing up in a heavy no-waste family whenever I see cooking videos where they just discard the scraps just gives me like anime eye twitching 😅
Well...I was gonna get some sleep before work later, but I see another Alvin video. So sleep can wait.
I couldn't quite tell what watch you're wearing, but it's beautiful!
yall oughtta have an Ingredient highlight series
You rockin a Breguet there Alvin? Classy. Love it.
I love the way you sing
Alvin's voice is calming. We need more episodes with him...and the butter!
you should do a part 2 where you use a different bread recipe, and make jam!
“All toasters toast, TOAST”
-Hotel Mario April 5th 1994
So many layers.........🤩
Hello Andrew, I just saw you on JOLLY so thought I'd pop over and check out your channel. I like what I've seen so far so you now have a new subscriber from UK 👍🙂.
So much Butter went into this dish that Danish creamery cost just went up another $2 because of this video. But it's soooo worth it.
My favorite butter and toast
I would love to see a part 2 of this where you try again
That Breguet Enamel! Nice watch.
Oh that’s so yummy
You suould try to make brioche feuilletée ! It's basically layered brioch but instead of a square you make a nice swirl
I miss Anime with Alvin. I want him to make Nino and Miku’s dishes from The Quintessential Quintuplets
Drinking game: take a shot for every time this dude says "Go ahead."
Thank you! It makes these videos borderline unwatchable for me.
I think part of the reason we're not seeing the layers as clearly is because the bread was cut when it was hot
Ed would love this.
It looks like you might have sliced into these a little too early, which might have affected getting each of those layers to really stand out.
What sort of pans were used to bake the butter toast?
What's the name of the pastry you made with the scraps? I didn't catch it and the cc didn't help
I know he probably wanted to get the video done but with something like this it's really worth letting it cool before cutting so th layers/texture doesn't get squished as much.
Been watching for a while and I think it would be awesome if you guys could do a series on diabetic or keto friendly recipes. Like being able to convert them over. Because it's a type one I'm looking at this and it looks delicious but I'm sitting here going I can't have that without a lot of insulin.
Sponge candy recipe maybe? I loved those since I was a kid and it would be so much fun to try and make it
Ed liked this!
Ed would love this
Do the Sumire-Dori Karaage Chicken wraps from Food Wars. The chicken from Mozuya looks delicious, but Soma's chicken is mouth-watering.
My mind went right back to that burnt croissant episode.
Rigby and Mordecai would probably risk their life for that
The scrapes reminds me of Yorkshire pudding.
yes
Asking again for the incredible Capixinha, the capybara shaped coxinha!
Ed must never know this.
Probably wants some gravy too!
looking tasty😀😀😋😋
Why is Alvin absolutely jacked 😭
Great video 👍
