It’s weird that doesn’t look all that bad when it’s done.

The key to a good tiktok recipe is doing it the normal way that makes sense and editing it to look like you didn't. And also that would probably cook up just fine and taste pretty alright for a week night meal. It'a a pretty common way to make casserole spaghetti for church dinners.

e: But you should aim higher and make good baked spaghetti because it takes approximately 10% more effort.

That's why there are 3,000 different types of pasta, each different shape allows you to make a new dish.

Most Italian cuisine is a clever ploy to get people to eat copious amounts of pasta, cheese, sauce, and meat. And you know what, it works.

Ah, here is the secret to this, for every complaint on internet videos about someone making Italian food Wrong you can find a region, town or old families in Italy that literally just do that. Within some reasonable limits anyway.

On a kinda-relevant note, Kenji made a point about food authenticity in his latest video. Americans have an idea of authentic Chinese food that's hugely based on Cantonese restaurant-style food prepared by the earliest migrants. So there's this obsession with wok hei produced by high-butane gas cookers.

This isn't really the kind of food most Chinese people, even those in Hong Kong and South China now or back then, eat on a daily basis. Most homes don't have giant burners that restaurants have. Just thought it was an interesting point.

it's noodles in water, that's how you make spagetti. Covering it in cheese to hide everything else just gives it a lasagna look.

I feel like Chef John ran out of real foods a while ago and now is just making more and more insane things. I still like the guy, but it's been a long time since he made something I want to cook.

Kinda. Her accent is the Trans-Atlantic Accent. Which was a non-regional American accent. It's something one would pick up at boarding schools, and then it was adopted by Hollywood. You hear it a lot in actors in the 30's and 40's. And it still pops up if you want to mark someone as a pretentious rear end. Like the Crane brothers. The rest of her voice came from elongated vocal cords. Basically the way you hear her speaking in videos is how she sounded in real life.

But she sounds nothing like FDR or Katherine Hepburn or the lady on Downton Abbey. I guess I mean the cartoonish shrill thing she has.

It's the shrill sing song voice and the fact that she spoke French fluently. Her intonations are bizarre cause she's constantly throwing in French pronunciations.

I have a weird low-to-high pitched sing songy voice and I get compared to her all the time. It hurts my feelings, but I get it. It's impossible to control that if you've spoken that way your whole life.

That ep was cool but those burners are gonna melt/explode cause of all the lateral heat they weren't intended to take. I'm only like 45 minutes away from Louis Lunch I need to get my rear end down there sometime.

I'm gonna be honest, the Louis Lunch burgers aren't great. They're neat for the history and stuff but they're exactly what they look like. Motz tried a fattier burger grind for a reason.

I haven't had them, but thank you for saying that. It's a fast food dish from 120 years ago. There's probably a reason everyone else has moved on.

That's what I hear as well, but honestly it's the experience I'd be after. Checking out that weird old restaurant and seeing those goofy little ovens for myself is much more important than eating some burger. If I was going to New Haven just to eat I would go on an Apizza tour (AKA get pizza from 3 or 4 places on the same drat street).
