Did the recipe changed. I have cornstarch & vanilla in the old recipe??
Lol, what an unhelpful segment by Dan. Not even an explanation on how to temper.
But at least people know the crystals are like chairs. :p
Own a food ricer? Does a much better job of pressing out water from frozen spinach than just your hands. Give it a try!
I had gnudi in Italy recently and I'm thrilled to see a recipe
I love Americas test kitchen
At 19:51 you can see the little red button on the back of their "special" thermometer that changes what number is showing on the thermometer. I heard long ago in a question and answer segment that they used a special one but this is the first time I saw the button on the back.
@Julia you mentioned you considered panko a pantry staple. What else do you consider a staple? In the new year I'm rebuilding my pantry. By the way, the two lid tip for cutting the cherry tomatoes was the best trip I've picked up so far.
Utensil crocks are a waste of money. Any vessel heavy enough and with a wide enough base will work. I use a flower pot.
Absolutely delish and Bridgette your precise delivery for the ladies kisses"baci di dama👍
Looks good I love this
I bet Nutella would be good instead of chocolate in those cookies.
Can you Test Air fryer Vs Deep fry or vs Oven …. Healthy
I want to buy One Not Sure …Best One
How about using the gnudi dough as a ravioli filling, although I'd add garlic to the gnudi mixture.
That was a great explanation of the difference between the chocolate.
I wish people knew how to say Riccota. It's not Riccata. I know I'm splitting hairs.
That side eye Bridget!!! Yes!!!!!
Bridget!! So funny!
I use a black plastic small GARBAGE CAN. I have way too many everything kitchen tool. LoL. $ 5.99 @ Walsmart . 😂
Those lady kisses… 🥰🥰🥰
Cheese cloth is healthier than paper towel
Some of the best cookies I've ever had in my life were in Italy. These look familiar so I need to make some and also pignoli cookies made with pine nuts. 😋
6:57 Bridget's look when Julia said she can get "a little rough in the kitchen"… I *love* the chemistry these two have together!!! 😅😂🤣😅😂🤣
Woww ! Amazing From Turkey 🇹🇷🇹🇷♥️
Would you be able to substitute other nuts for the hazelnuts in the baci? Maybe pecans?
The white ceramic utensil crock is sold out! 🙁
Kinda cooking related.. what's the sure way of getting grease stains out of your clothes?
Can you freeze the gnudi and cook it from frozen at a later date or will that ruin the texture?
Ok i wanna see the blooper reel on this one. They had to break up just saying Gnudi all the time. 😂
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I was very skeptical of the butter tomato sauce. You definitely won me over. I’m trying this
That look at 6:59 lol 😂
Yum yum yummy 👍
