4:00

and good night. Alright everybody,

4:02

Scoots here and we're back

4:04

with another great British bake, Baking

4:06

Show Bake, off. Just loading

4:08

it up. Gotta turn down

4:11

the volume, correct. Volume is muted and

4:14

let's hit this thing. What are

4:17

we on here? Pudding week or Pastry

4:19

week? Great question. We're

4:21

on Pastry week, Scoots. Really? Well,

4:24

thanks for telling me. Apparently I

4:26

have too many downloads and too

4:28

many devices so this

4:30

company's falling out of my favor

4:33

because I think you would do

4:35

the auto downloads. So

4:37

don't blame me for your user.

4:39

Anyway, enough, like, so it is Pastry

4:41

week. Let's see if I can stream

4:44

this. Okay,

4:46

looks like it's getting ready to run. We got

4:49

the teaser, probably then the cold

4:51

open, but let's read through

4:53

my notes for the whatever

4:56

the first thing is. Not the

4:58

showstopper, but the

5:00

first thing. Pastry week, Sandy

5:03

taking to talking to

5:05

swans, driving about or

5:08

steering about or whatever, skiffing a

5:10

skiff. Nolan to

5:12

Tiger Suit. Prou is given

5:14

a WTF from a bridge.

5:16

Oh, we're doing

5:18

Life of Pi. Life of Pi, get

5:21

it? It's Pastry week. Roll

5:24

on Pastry. Shortcrust

5:26

or something. It was

5:29

an alliteration but I don't know or

5:31

maybe it wasn't shortcrust. A technical twist.

5:35

Shortcrust showstopper or something. Show

5:38

sized showstopper. That's not

5:40

right either. Stacey Falls,

5:42

bit of a problem.

5:46

Then there's a sunny walk to the

5:48

tent this first day of this Pastry

5:50

week. Liam

5:53

does a high voice. Two guys

5:55

left, he says. That's

5:58

how I answer the phone with that kind of Good.

14:00

Nice pie. Minan.

14:04

Minan, Paul says. Like a proper

14:07

northern pie. So then

14:10

they do the talking. Stacey's happy.

14:12

Liam, decent, decent. Sophie, fine. 300

14:15

meters. Kate, first call

14:18

bang. Yan,

14:24

so good at power. I

14:27

can make pie. I can so make pie. Okay,

14:30

so let's see what really happened here on the

14:34

show. Get it playing. Oh wait,

14:37

I'm at 31 minutes there. Must

14:39

have been playing the whole time

14:41

I was talking. Okay, five bakers,

14:43

Sandy, sand. We wanted to give

14:45

him a hug. Only

14:47

then can you look. Oh, that's when she's

14:50

talking to Noel, wife of

14:52

pie. Then Brew looks down. She's

14:54

in a red raincoat on a

14:56

bridge. Then we get

14:58

the teaser roll on shortcut

15:00

shigna stunning shortcut signatures. That's what

15:02

I couldn't figure out. Super

15:05

sized showstopper. Wonky

15:08

pie, Virgil collapse, heavy

15:11

thud. And then that

15:13

was so begins. Warm

15:15

walk in. Liam, hi,

15:20

like, I don't mind. Just two of

15:22

us got to represent a little

15:25

bit anxious. Pastry can smell fear.

15:27

That's what morning bakers.

15:30

I think Noel

15:32

has a couple different outfits on this

15:34

week. I just noticed that. Let's

15:36

see if everybody else changes close

15:39

to I probably won't remember but

15:41

okay, so

15:43

they say four gorgeous pies on

15:45

your marks, get set bake, everybody

15:48

gets into motion, get cracking

15:51

butter, maximum amount of

15:53

time to decorate quite a challenge. Got

15:57

to have good pastry

15:59

practice individual savory. pies

16:01

connected through the decoration,

16:03

a little bit of work knife work,

16:05

create something amazing. Intricate

16:08

pastry skills, temptation, fiddling around.

16:10

The more you fiddle,

16:13

the tougher it gets, crumbly. Pies

16:16

might look amazing, but gotta

16:18

look forward to the filling.

16:21

Hello again. Savory

16:23

pie challenge, my pie is science, based

16:26

on British scientists. So

16:29

she has Hawking, Darwin, Turing

16:31

and Crick, a binary

16:34

code for Turing, ones and

16:36

zeros, DNA and helix for

16:38

Crick, and proves

16:40

like well, I was going to take it more difficult

16:42

than splitting the atom. Oh, it is

16:45

400, somebody says. Then yeah,

16:48

the ingredients, flour, butter, lard, gotta

16:52

blend them correctly. Liam's

16:55

using a rich dough. Julie's

16:58

using that baking powder. And you

17:01

gotta make it into a ball, but

17:03

don't work it too much because you don't want to make

17:05

gluten or something. And two batches

17:09

for Steven, Fleetwood

17:12

Mac, Swedish meatballs,

17:14

mashed potatoes, lingberry jam, and the songs

17:18

from my favorite band. Who could

17:20

guess it? Big Love, Storm, Songbird

17:22

and Angel, your fan.

17:25

And now I'm cooking and

17:27

listening for one baker. This

17:29

is just the beginning. Lennon,

17:32

Einstein, Shakespeare,

17:34

Millie Ehrhard, people

17:37

I find inspirational, fresh

17:40

medley, potatoes, onions, and

17:42

leeks, rough molds,

17:44

and then I'll emboss them with

17:47

these embossing tools. I've heard drawings

17:49

are really fantastic. Pastry of Lennon,

17:51

can't wait. The pastries are done.

17:54

People are making their filling, sausage,

17:56

R squared plus R squared. This

18:00

is the end's perfect pie

18:02

equation. It cracks Sandy

18:05

up, makes me really happy. Sandy

18:08

sure may have people's pictures on it,

18:10

or like heads. And

18:13

Stacy's mixing up how proud

18:15

her nan would be of her

18:18

love theme to decorate it. Mincemeat,

18:20

pine nut, chili, and cinnamon pies.

18:23

And I'm going to color them

18:25

with a colored egg wash, like

18:27

to make the lovey colors red.

18:31

And Jan's going

18:33

to use a vacuum sealer for her curry

18:36

to get some flavor in the chicken. Potatoes

18:40

boiling, lingonberry boiling.

18:44

Everybody's trying to reduce

18:46

their liquids, cooking

18:48

up their fillings, keep

18:50

the pastry dry. Julie's

18:52

doing the raw approach. She's going to cook her

18:55

meat in her pie. Pie

18:57

from the tree, decorative pie.

19:00

Sausage, onion, some

19:02

smoked paprika, things you find

19:04

on a tree. Leaves, acorn,

19:07

flour, grapes. Grapes

19:10

on a tree. Oh, it's prue that said that. I've

19:14

seen grapes kind of on a tree, so like

19:16

I thought was on a tree. So I don't

19:19

know. Knoll does

19:21

live in a hollowed out tree. Let's get

19:23

out of here before it gets even more

19:25

weird. Shortcrust

19:27

spry is vulnerable to liquid and from

19:31

resting and when it's too thick. So yeah.

19:37

You don't want it to get soggy. You got

19:40

to measure it. Optimum

19:42

crispness. Jan's using a

19:44

scientific solution, sealing it with egg. So

19:47

it doesn't leak. And

19:50

Sophie's doing blind bake. I

19:52

guess with a blind bake you put some round things

19:54

in there. Because I was like, what are those round

19:57

things? I

19:59

don't know what those are. Stacy

50:00

doing meat free, curry

50:03

with eggs, hand

50:06

raised pie, spinach, lentils,

50:08

have you done at home? Two on

50:11

Friday. One went good and

50:13

one not good. Okay, Jan

50:15

and Julia, they're filling their

50:17

pies and

50:20

other people are taking their pies out of the thing.

50:22

So I guess that's

50:24

the difference. It's the other one, you can fill

50:26

the pie in the mold.

50:29

Everybody else is trying to get theirs out

50:31

of the mold and not filled so then

50:33

they can fill it. And

50:37

Stacy's stuck. Steven's helping Cake

50:40

get hers out. It works.

50:42

No whispers

50:45

to Liam's. Do

50:47

a baking handshake. Solid. Trying

50:51

to keep up with the use. Stacy's still trying

50:53

to get hers out. I guess

50:56

it comes

50:58

out. Everybody starts trying

51:00

to fill theirs. Don't

51:03

want to be too fussy. You want

51:06

it to look pretty when you

51:08

open it up. Potato. Stacy

51:11

realizes she left parchment paper in there but her

51:13

pie is already filled. She thinks about it for

51:15

like, I mean even in the edit, like 15-20

51:18

seconds. Liam

51:21

puts his top on. Sophie's

51:24

getting hers ready. Stacy's

51:26

stressed. Very stressed. Halfway

51:29

through, hand raised by. Julian and

51:32

Jan are now taking theirs out.

51:34

Jan's comes out pretty easily. Julius

51:36

doesn't come out but then Jan has

51:39

to take hers out and then flip it. And

51:42

then Julius stressed. Jan's like, I'll help you.

51:45

But then they realize that she

51:50

has a mold and not a bowl anyway. So she

51:52

has to take the mold off. Some

51:54

people are using like twine to hold their

51:56

pie together. People

52:01

are getting there's in the oven

52:03

rush no stuff about an hour

52:05

raw meat you

52:08

want overcooked turkey steven says.

52:12

And so he's gonna get

52:14

her liquids out stasis

52:16

like man minus floppy already.

52:20

Everybody's watching their ovens watch

52:23

and watched pie always cooks

52:25

enough. Sophie's trying to

52:27

get liquid out of her pie get

52:30

glazing everybody mango and avocado

52:32

salsa for the Williams pomegranate

52:35

red onions lime figs

52:38

and pork refree and those both sound

52:40

really good. Steven

52:43

cranberries Sophie

52:45

I think like a mixed fruit he says yeah one

52:47

day you two you're two

52:49

like oh I

52:52

guess Liam was doing a

52:54

Russell brand impersonation. Okay so everybody's

52:56

taking their pies out trying

52:59

to do their last thing

53:02

a little soggy Stasis has

53:04

collapsed Sandy looks okay

53:07

well maybe Paul won't notice he'll become

53:09

a different person. Everybody's

53:12

getting things ready getting

53:14

the temperature up just

53:17

wait for it to

53:19

cook oh boy don't like

53:21

it Kate's cooking

53:23

nicely. Everybody's checking where's the

53:26

temperature Stevens is not cooking

53:28

15 minutes to finish

53:31

those hand raised pies. Liam

53:34

another minute for good luck Liam's

53:37

like mine looks good. Stevens

53:39

is still she's like leaving it to

53:42

last minute is it gonna be cooked

53:46

Stacey's pie is a little bit

53:48

misshapen ten more minutes for Steven

53:50

and other pies are coming out

53:53

Julie's starting to decorate her pie

53:56

put the fruit on everybody's

53:58

doing their toppings. Steven's glittering

54:00

his fruit to

54:03

get it ready. Had a little camp in

54:05

there, wouldn't be Steven. Ann's

54:08

doing some amazing knife work that

54:11

Julia and Sophie appreciate. And

54:15

Steven's waiting till the last minutes. Gets

54:20

us by, it's cooked. Liam's

54:23

like sauce on top of a

54:25

pie. That's definitely brilliant. Like

54:28

the other ones, other than the fig, I'd be

54:30

like, well, I mean, it gets like a Thanksgiving

54:32

pie. Maybe not with ground turkey

54:35

though. With

54:37

cranberry, I can see, but Stacey's

54:40

down. We go to the

54:42

judges, hand-raised pies. And

54:46

Sophie's up first, forest fruits. Everything go

54:48

to plan? Well, we'll see, let's get

54:50

it open. Smooth

54:53

outside, beautifully done. And

54:57

well done, goes like a cake. Not

55:00

too much liquid, very good. Amazing

55:04

construction, love the flavors. Tartaness

55:08

balances it out. Nice

55:11

thing, but you do have a little raw

55:13

crust. Kate's

55:15

looks great. Oh, cut's

55:17

great. Pastry's thin, held well. Flavor's

55:22

lovely, looks pretty. Love

55:24

that, absolutely. Coolness

55:27

of mango with the curry works, clever.

55:30

Stacey's pie looks

55:33

a mess, homemade. Should've

55:36

been professional looking. And

55:39

also there's parchment paper on the bottom.

55:43

So I take that

55:45

out and she says, I'm

55:48

sorry. They said

55:50

this would work as a meal. It's

55:52

more of a dish than a hot, like a,

55:55

then they go to Stevens, look

55:57

at those sides. Lovely color, attractive,

55:59

moist. It looks good but

56:02

taste is bland. Stuffing

56:04

and turquing. It all

56:06

tastes let down in the flavor. Yand

56:10

by... this was done

56:13

in the tin. Okay, well looks

56:15

all right. A little bit of crimping like the

56:19

checkerboard. Wow, nice, stunning,

56:21

golden, rich flavor.

56:24

Tastes different. Fruit

56:27

works, wonderful. Then

56:29

Julia could have been neater where

56:31

the lid meets the side. You

56:33

did it in a tin. Asparagus

56:38

works, chicken's dry. Asparagus is

56:40

overcooked, or doesn't work. Pastry

56:42

is overcooked. Liam,

56:46

conscious, kicked in. I did

56:48

it the traditional way. They're

56:50

impressed. Steely bloys.

56:53

This is Paul, your conscience.

56:56

And they start cutting

56:58

the pie, holding together

57:00

nicely. Colors are fantastic.

57:02

It's quite succulent and juicy.

57:04

Plantain gives it some smoothness,

57:07

tropical flavor. It's nice. And

57:10

then the fruit's also spectacular.

57:12

Wonderful. Grandma's a genius. Get

57:15

it, Nan. Can she come

57:17

to my house and cook? Paul says, Liam's

57:21

like, yeah, I just want to make her proud. Hashtag

57:23

Cynthia. Stacy says, sadly,

57:25

I'll be gutted if I go home. Julia's like,

57:29

yeah, please do the comments.

57:31

But I'm worried. That

57:34

wasn't enough. They do

57:36

a long pause on her. Trees,

57:39

the tent, table talk, worried about

57:41

Julia. Well, Kate saved herself. Loved

57:43

her potato curry. Julia's

57:46

was untidy. Pastry was thick and

57:48

raw. And

57:50

Stacy's in trouble. Her pie

57:52

all over the place. Struggled.

57:55

Star baker, Liam, Yan, Sophie.

58:00

still in there. Her

58:02

fruits were great, looked good, very

58:04

professional, crimping. Liam just astonishes me,

58:07

genius with flavor, instinct

58:09

for what goes. They

58:11

give Sandy a hard time, they cut to

58:13

the tent, cut to the waiting bakers. And

58:17

Star Baker is Liam,

58:20

who used the wisdom of their elders

58:22

for a wonderful showstopper. Everybody's

58:25

happy for him. And

58:27

he makes a kid haircut face, which is

58:29

even better. And poor

58:32

Sandy has to give the tear. She's really

58:34

upset, really hard for

58:36

her to say goodbye. And

58:39

she says the person leaving the tent

58:41

is Stacey and Julie are freaking out.

58:43

But it's Julie. Sandy says,

58:46

I'm so sorry, big hug,

58:48

sorry sweetheart. Really

58:50

down, you did amazing. Oh, I

58:53

almost started crying there. Did amazing,

58:55

big hugs. I'm lucky

58:57

to find my passion, something

58:59

I enjoyed doing. And so

59:03

one place to go up, Liam

59:05

kicks back, laughs, says,

59:08

yeah, Star Baker. Didn't

59:11

think I would ever get it. Over

59:14

the moon, over the moon, just like, yeah.

59:17

He's like clapping his hands. I

59:20

got to Star Baker. He calls him on,

59:22

mom, I got to Star Baker. Oh my

59:24

God. She says, why are you crying? He

59:26

says. And

59:29

that's the end of the episode.

59:31

Another classic bake off. So I

59:34

hope you're comfortable and whether

59:36

you're in a short crust or

59:38

1:01:36

bacon, telling friends about it. Give

1:01:38

it a bit of time. You'll

1:01:40

find it helps. Roses

1:01:43

1:01:45

1:01:47

1:01:59

awesome. podcast. I'm 11, turning

1:02:01

12. Love this podcast. If

1:02:05

you don't have, like, this podcast is

1:02:07

awesome. Keep making it. Thanks. So

1:02:10

thanks everybody who took the time to review

1:02:12

the podcast over there on Apple Podcasts. I

1:02:14

really appreciate it. Sleeping with you literally does

1:02:16

exist because of the people that support the

1:02:18

show on Patreon and support our sponsors. Sponsors

1:02:22

are how we're able to be here

1:02:24

on every single podcast platform for free

1:02:26

versus just one platform. So I

1:02:29

appreciate that. And we grow as a

1:02:31

show by people spreading the word about

1:02:33

the podcast or just podcasting in general.

1:02:35

If you want to spread the word

1:02:37

about the podcast specifically, you could get

1:02:39

rewarded by joining our referral program at

1:02:42

sleepingwithmepodcast.com/refer. But even

1:02:44

if you spread the word about podcasts, like

1:02:46

eventually someone will find their way to the

1:02:48

show, but everybody will enjoy a podcast in

1:02:50

their life, whether it's Sleeping Me or something

1:02:53

else. So just

1:02:55

tell people what podcast app you use,

1:02:57

where to find, where, you know, how

1:02:59

you use your app, your experience. And

1:03:02

that's like attraction by promotion

1:03:04

for sure. So, or

1:03:07

promotion by attraction or whatever

1:03:09

it is. Just you know, be like, hey, this is what

1:03:11

I use. This is how I listen. And then let that

1:03:13

mask go. How do I get that on my phone? Doesn't

1:03:16

work the other way around because I tried with family

1:03:21

members. So that's

1:03:23

it. And here's either a

1:03:25

little bit about our referral program or

1:03:27

what our sponsors to Tuck In and

1:03:29

1:03:31
