Definitely misheard Ben as saying "extroverted olive oil"
It speaks too loudly without realizing it!  It loves to party!  It makes others slightly uncomfortable!  It really wants to hug you but doesn't know how you'd feel about that!

Love that guy's description of the vinaigrette at 7:35.

7:25 Ben says 'forever' Mike 'Forever-ever' ... I'm Ms Jackson .. ooo I am for

I have been absolutely loving these 3 way vids, i'm slightly disappointed this is the final one. hopefully it's a series you guys will consider resurrecting in the future, it's nice to see the whole gang in one video.

Ben is like the sun and the others just rotate around him like planets.

Tomato cake is just brilliant, put some basil infused salt in there, replace the cream cheese with mozzarella, put it under a salamander and you got the most italian cake ever.

I want to thank you all, you have been such an inspiration to me. I have loved to cook and bake for such a long time, and just yesterday I started culinary school! I'm so excited!

First of: THANK YOU GUYS for a whole video without using any electrical appliances, as a student it often makes it impossible for me to follow a recipe as soon as a food processor or even a blender are involved... And second: darn that cake looks incredibly delicious! Cannot wait to try it!

i made the chilli today... yummy and healthy! thinking it would also be good for veggie burritos

A sandwich tin is a cake tin?  I never knew that.  I thought it was a sort of loaf pan for making sandwich bread.  Now British cake recipes make so much more sense.

Ben whispers " I think it's quite hot "

At a B&B my husband and I enjoyed a brunch drink which was the strained juice that is leftover when canning tomatoes. It was served ice cold in sherry glasses. AMAZING.

When Ben was pouring the flour in the cake, I'm not sure whether Mike's smile will give me dreams or nightmares tonight.

[oliviamorgan]

“How much do we want?”
“Liberal nuttage”
Mike with gusto: “ I CAN DO THAT!”

I have a question for Ben: if it takes half an hour to go to the store for a vinaigrette, how long does it take to go to the store to get the ingredients for the vinaigrette?

My mom used to use tomato juice to make Tomatoes and Noodles/Tomatoes and Dumplings. Basically all you do is mix tomato juice with a little sugar, some black pepper, some salt, and some butter while heating on the stove. Either add already cooked elbow noodles or make drop dumpling batter and cook in the tomato broth by leaving the lid off for ten minutes, then putting the lid on and simmering for another ten minutes. They were some of my favorite childhood dishes.

I'm a chili guy, and I love it hot! :D I did my chili con carne with beans, minced beef, cheddar cheese to thicken and lemon juice to further liven the stew.
