Good meme! Dylan B Hollis is a really witty baking content creator on YouTube (and TikTok) for anyone wondering who that is.
He’s great. All of his videos are absolutely FIIIYAH!
Half cup of MOO JUICE!
Yeah! I also like that he hasn’t Flanderized his content. If anything, it got just slightly toned down, which IMO felt just right.
And he does longer-form content on his YouTube, which is surprisingly very chill. I actually prefer it, but that’s just me. :P
bro was so surprised that a chocolate mayonnaise cake actually would taste good
Bro I was surprised.
Ngl me too. But chocolate is magical. It basically adds +5 to any roll, but in baking
Yeah, that literally sounds impossible 😄
Mayo is basically oil, egg yolk, and depending on the brand varying amounts of vinegar.
Cake recipes often call for eggs and oil, and some will use something acidic to help the baking soda/powder activate. We’re just generally not used to using an emulsified all in one ingredient.
Fair enough, but how many other cake recipes call specifically for vinegar or anything containing it? I’m genuinely asking as a mystified person who doesn’t bake 😄
Afaik red velvet cake.
Gonna have to see if I can even get those here in Denmark heh. I know they’re pretty much ubiquitous in the US, but I don’t think I’ve ever seen one here for some reason 🤷
I believe buttermilk is used more commonly than straight vinegar as it’s acidic. Buttermilk pancakes are fairly common if not standard in the States. You’ll also find it used in breads and biscuits (the kind of biscuit that’s akin to a savory scone.)
FWIW, Ime the primary difference buttermilk makes compared to normal milk is that the bread will hold together better. It’s less crumbly and more towards chewy. I don’t notice any flavor difference.
It’s interesting that acid(I assume) does that, I’m curious about the chemistry behind that now.
Some of the stuff I’ve seen him make that came out good is insane.
I recall a chocolate sauerkraut cake off the top of my head.
Why do vampires prefer human blood? Why can’t they be regular meat eaters?
