1:24 i love the clarification that the 6 large eggs require their shells removed as opposed to being dumped in the bowl whole

I love that you used cream and strawberries to decorate the top of the cake. Traditionally here in the UK, a Vicky sponge is dusted with icing sugar (powdered sugar), but it always makes the entire thing feel kind of dry. Your idea is so much better

Hearing Babish say "You can't make a Tomlette without breaking a some Gregs" is peak entertainment

I remember when I was a chef in London and our executive chef the great -name redacted- ordered Fern Verrow strawberries. At the time the most expensive strawberries in England. He ordered an enormous amount of them and we all wondered what he his plan was for them. He flowed into the kitchen later that day and declared we were going to make strawberry jam with them. Undeniably the most expensive strawberry Jam in the UK at the time. We all thought he was mad but man was it delicious.

The second cake being pretty much the same but ridiculously more expensive perfectly fits the themes of Succession

Hoping for you to at some point do a Coraline special. start with the sauce wraps, then create the circus treats, then the other mothers breakfast, then that large feast she first makes for coraline, mango milkshake included 😊. It’s one of my favorite movies and I think it could make for a fun episode

[Tikuros]

Andy standing over the batch of burned, posh strawberry jam is too real. I felt that moment in my bones

[WisakJ]

What a show and what an ending. Thanks for making this so fast after last episode! You truly are a king.

In my country (Italy), "fancy lemons" are the big ones with thick peel, that we use for limoncello (among other things). They're usually grown in the south. :)

I love that the egg shells made it into the Meal Fit For A King! I can't believe you drank that.

I find the strawberry flavor for these kinds of recipes, especially from high quality strawberries, to be better when you just let them sit in the sugar for a few hours to form a syrup rather than cooking. But otherwise its perfection.

[DaDestroyer]

He managed to do that milkshake monstrosity less than two full days after the episode aired? That’s an impressive turnaround.

Got a $200 cake and Andrew taking a puke smoothie shower out of today's installment. All in all... Binging with Babish.

Casually watching this as background noise while I make pancakes from a bag mix.

[dubheadspartan]

As someone who has a job testing food and dairy products, I appreciate what you did at 4:55

[mackwebb]

I’m gonna need a botched episode featuring Sarah snook to get that spit now

[lerneanlion]

This is somehow the weirdest but also one of the coolest episodes of this channel.

[Groovebotk]

So not that this needs a botched episode, but the next time strawberries are made into jam I would be interested in both the refrigerated gelatin quickset version (my favorite version because I think it preserves the fresh taste of the berries) and the roasted strawberry version (very time intensive but genuinely fascinating to me).

[yuli.gg.o]

Thank you for always showing your mistakes! It's always nice to see very real moments

[PaulSavagecomedy]

I have nothing to add apart from this was perfect. The fact the fanxy, £200 cake is only marginally better says a lot about the show.
