The Reluctant Cook Experiments with Vanilla Shake Waffles

this is the creamy vanilla shakeI’m going to put in an eighth of a cupegg whites I read this recipe on thesupport page and the person used thetropical fruit what does it calltropical fruit oh I don’t remember butanyway and they followed this recipe I’mgonna put in milk so it fills to orderthis is the 30 cavalry almond milknow I’m going to add in the vanillashakes that shake because I want to seeif this will make us good a waffle asthe tropical fruit did and also bakingpowder so for this we’re going to add ahalf a teaspoon[Music]and now I’m going to take my mini whiskby the way this little thing is fromAnchor Hocking and it has cups andounces and milliliters on it and it’sgot three pouring thingsyou see how this comes out okay so inthe spirit of experimentation it’s youknow originally this recipe was with atropical fruit smoothie which requiresless liquid so I’m going to add anothereighth of a cup of milk to this this isa two tablespoon measure two tablespoonsis the same as an eight because thisjust does not the tropical fruitsmoothie was very liquidy and it becamefrothy okay so this is more a little bitmore the consistency you know it’s funnybecause when I first started on programI love the vanilla shake so I myfavorites and now I think I don’t knowwhat I saw in them it’s really funnybecause your taste buds do change Ishould say you taste buds don’t changeyour tastes change so I’m gonna let thissit it said about what does that sayit’s at about half a cup now so we’llsee if that baking powder makes it frothup andI’ll be back so I’m getting my mini -waffle maker readyI like using this pan spray that’s notthe aerosol because it’s easier tocontrol where it sprays to I’ll justclose this down and let it heat up andthis is now this is still half a cup butas soon as this is heated I’m gonna goahead and start pouring some this is anexperiment we’re doing it together rightnow alive in the kitchen of thereluctant cook that’s me okay it’s readyso something that I noticed when I wasmaking the tropical fruit smoothiewaffles is that they kept expanding evenafter I poured them into the wafflemaker so I don’t want to pour too muchof this because with the tropical fruitone it started bubbling out the sidealthough that one did make three reallynice waffle became you’re not just likeEggo wafflesbut even better your fluffier and theyhad a lovely delicate tropical fruitflavor so this is the vanilla shake andwe’ll see what happens with this I’mgonna get a plate put it on so as withany waffle maker you’re supposed to waituntil all the steam stops coming outactually with the tropical fruitsmoothie waffle recipe you don’t want toovercook them because they can be alittle dry but they still taste reallygood this one still has quite a bit ofsteam mmm let me kind of take a littlepeek oh it’s kind of okay it’s obviouslynot ready becauseit doesn’t want to open oh goshokay so the light has gone out geethere’s still a lot of steam can you seethat steam coming out yeah if I stickyou can kind of see it against my blackdress oh dearoh my oh my goodness I have a disasterokay so this experiment may not haveworked out so well you know I’m gonnajust I’m gonna try you another one butI’m going to put in more better maybe Ididn’t have enough in that give it achance to spread out close it so what dowe have here well you know it looks verydark but and I think I didn’t haveenough bad or I’m just gonna try thisOhthat’s not too bad I like waffles veryoften without anything on them I thinkmaybe this next one oh I think this nextone’s gonna work that better becauselook and you see how you can sort ofpeek in it’s what it spoofing up alittle bit the other one I didn’t haveanother batter in so I think that’s whyit kind of poof up you know what can yousee that like with a hollow inside yeahBella so we’ll see how this next onecomes out this one won’t go to wastemmm it’s not burned which is very darkoh my goodness look at thisuh-oh the first one was too skinnythis one huh this one the rising up outof the waffle maker okay I’ll be back sowhile we’re waiting making myself a cupof coffee here I started drinkinginstant decaf so I could have coffee anytime of the day this is the creamer thatI useyes so that I know about how much isgoing in there and then I usually putmore almond milk in there these cream orto have you know a little bit of morecream like consistency and then the AMAknow kind of cool it down okay so ohdearwell it’s another look it’s made like asort of came apart in the center likethe first one did I’m gonna taste it andI’ll let you know herehmm I think I know what is wrong withthis recipe the tropical fruit smoothiehas eggs in the ingredients I mean it’spart of the ingredients in the powderand this one does not so I think perhapsif I had added more egg white it mighthave workedah well somewhat of a partial fail butstill going to eat it tastes okayyeah definitely the problem is thatthere were no eggs and in the vanillashake and that’s why this did not haveenough substance to it of course if Ihad some whipped cream I could stick itin the middle and put that over the topright thanks for joining me for anothercooking session this one was a partialfail but we learned from itnext time I’ll add more egg and give itanother whirlwhy not it’s kind of fun and it doesn’ttaste half bad have a great day
