Julia you used to say Worchestershire correcrly.
I must be a sparkling water snob because Pellegrino ranking at the bottom made me cranky. Also Topo Chico is superb.
ATK, Hello,JACK, Speaking of ‘WATER’ MANY MOONS AGO there was an EXPENSIVE WATER sold at MACYS NYC, but someone let the cat out of the bag, it was NYC WATER $ 12/ bottle, but it got better, there was water from CHERNOBYL UKRAINE ! It NEVER SOLD, WHY WOULD YOU DRINK THE WATER, AFTER THE NUCLEAR EXPLOSION,. ! See people will try almost ANYTHING ! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
A great birthday gift for me, would be to spend a lot of time with Ms. Bridget & Ms. Julia just talking, teaching, learning, cooking and eating!!! I LOVE THESE LADIES!!!! I want to hang out with all of the rest kitchen and Cooks Country crew. Ms. Elle is classic cool. Dan, Jack, Keith, Adam, Lawman and Brian… Guys, teach me what you know, please…!!!
I use sri racha in my deviled eggs. 😋
I heard vinegar can help them peal too!
No dirty socks taste in the water either! 😀
Something that would go good with that on the skewer would be pineapple!
America, stop putting sugar in all your food!
I did the chicken thigh kabobs today, following the instructions exactly. Did these on a gas grill. One problem though: my little food processor (Oster) just couldn't turn the bacon into paste even though I cut it into 1/2" pieces. It was a mess and all stringy. Had to throw the bacon away and so just used some olive oil with the paprikas. The next time, I'll use bacon fat leftover from frying some bacon, and I'll melt it and toss the chicken in it before adding the paprika mixture. That being said, the kabobs were fabulous and the sauce was easy to make and delicious!
Eggravating?
First time that I dislike thing they make in ATK.
Not the worst Worcestershire pronunciation I've heard, by a long shot! It's more of a "wuh" sound at the beginning. (Source: growing up in Worcester, UK.) Also, count your lucky starts that there isn't a Happisburgh , Norfolk sauce. 😀
Bacon paste‼️‼️👍🏽👍🏽👏🏽👏🏽🤸🏽♀️🤸🏽♀️
when is the ATK sitcom
ive never tried deviled eggs but they do look tasty
Tried the steaming method. Loved it. Tried the curry loved it. The chicken was dinner tonight. Beyond loved it 😍 Spent dinner thinking of ways to use "bacon paste.". I think it's the smoked paprika bacon combo. I am new to having access to smoked paprika and it is worth the shopping charges.
Agree with Julia, pellegrino is the best!
I also enjoyed the segment on sparkling water. I don't make a habit of buying sparkling water, but my tiny Kroger had a case of 12 Topo Chico Sparkling Mineral Water in the markdowns, and I tried it. I loved it. Clean taste, very bubbly, and is mineral water, not "tap" water, and comes in glass bottles. Their "winner" was Polar, which is NOT mineral water, but carbonated tap water, or maybe you can call it seltzer water.
I have always had a difficult time peeling hardcooked eggs. After I watched the episode where Elle made the curried deviled eggs using a steamer basket to steam cook them, then immerse in the ice water, I tried it. I will NEVER boil eggs again. I can do six eggs in my steamer basket, and as long as I use the ice water, they peel VERY easily, and the yolks are perfect. THANKS!
Love this channel could you do some low carb recipes please.
Please ladies, instead of using plastic wrap you could cover the bowl with a plate.
I have been shaking my eggs in the cooking pan after drained , then cold water. I am surprised people don't know the banging the eggs method.
Would like to know what steamer basket that is?
The golden caramelized look took it away for me. The sauce is perfect!
I like A RING OF GREEN!! I like OVERCOOKED EGGS!!
I've used the cold water method for boiled eggs for years and haven't had any problems. Put eggs in a pot, add enough cold water to cover them. Bring to boil and cover, turning off heat and leave on stove for 12 minutes. Ice bath or run cold water over eggs. Perfect every time and easy to peel; even after being in the fridge for a few days.
Seems like you could leave the chicken pieces whole and do the same method; saving A LOT of time.
Marinate the chicken for at least 8 hours.
Soo, this sounds good but, we make a point to take all the extra fat off the chicken, then add fat in the form of bacon back!? 🤷♂️
Removes all the chicken fat, then coats the chicken in pork fat cause chicken is "dry".
60 second show intros went out with network tv. Please no. What a waste of time.
We're going to use bacon to add fat, because we trimmed all the fat off the chicken. Yeah… makes sense… 😎
Love Julia and Bridget
Targeted animal cruelty
I wish she had said “well done!” after tasing those skewers. 😂
Marinate the chicken in pickle juice. I never cared for bbq chicken before hearing that a few years back. Best for plain ole salt n pepper pan seared thighs, but it works with bbq sauce as well.
Using a pork product and calling it a kebab? And bbq sauce? This should really be called a skewer instead of kebab.
Bridget’s face when she found that Julia is using bacon is such a mood
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! I really want to try to do the chicken kabobs! Everytime I tried, it doesn't look as DELICIOUS as the ones you Julia and Bridget did. Also, I want to try Devil eggs too 😋 Hi JULIA!!! You're looking Great!!! Always living your style. I wish I could meet you in person. I'd love to have your autograph! I'm your Big Fan! 😁
…see you later…🤣
