Binging with Babish: Raspberry Danish from Ant Man & The Wasp

Yes I know this one is a stretch. But Jess really loves raspberry danish you guys, and I wanted to make some for her. So, this week, we're using its brief product-placement-mention in Ant Man & The Wasp as an excuse to whip up batch after batch of this delectable dessert of Denmark.

Just now realizing that I used French butter in Danish pastry and the world of hurt that I've opened myself up to. Also, cream cheese.

That special "lazy thing where the hard thing seems easier" is how executive function works for me. Hand whisking is harder but getting the whisker machine is a lot of steps

[laffinggas]

The term "Clean Jess club" unnerves me a little as it implies that
A) Babish's first name is "Plate"
B) He ate the pastries off of his girlfriend

[JoshuaWeissman]

That’s a nice lookin dough ya got there babish.

No worries, Andrew. I caught it. And it was damn funny.

As a Danish chef, I love all your stuff. The normal pastry we eat is with ramonce (mix of butter, sugar and marzipan) on the bottom. Topped with pastry creme or jam. But as someone else already said, we call that Vienna bread (wienerbrød). But hey I'm sure yours are delicious, so who cares what it is called or if you use French butter.

I too eat pastries off of my girlfriend.

Haven't ever seen those kinds of pastery with cheese filling here in Denmark. The "lazy" small one is the everyday bakery breakfast cake but usually with thick vanilla custard or just the jam and ramons filling in the sides. ALOT of braids uses ramons (don't know if that's spelled correctly) which is just simply amazing

What he says: "This is just not doing it for me."

What he does: *aggressive hand-food shake and the "I did it" body drop*

Does pantry fold.
Official name: "Oh, this is the Lotus Fold."
Babish name: "This is the DIPPIDY DOT DOODLY DOO Fold."

"it has a higher melting point than UDDER butters" oh babish you, you Dad

[frederikbh]

As a dane, I must say I've never seen cheese and jam go together in a pastry - I'll have to try it. Usually we do egg custard, jam or a combo of the two. I reccommend it!

[austinraphael]

Did anybody hope that when the dough was dissected, we'd see a cross-section with 54 layers of butter?

[VolvagiasBlaze]

Babish: "you're gonna wanna get your hand on some french butter"
Me, living in a third world country: "add that one to the "too boujee for my ass" list"

“Using our repressed rage”

Never before have I realised how much Babish looks like Kratos in terms of hair.

[bradyboy]

I love that despite all of the time passed since we first saw it, he still has that teenage mutant ninja turtle pizza cutter and that is the funniest thing I’ve seen.

Very clever puns 👌

*Babish uses grams*
Me: Oh, he's moving away from our weird American syst-
*Babish uses Fahrenheit*
Me: (confused)

[williamtherkildsen]

Not using “lurpak butter" while making Danish pastry is a national offense. Also it has apparently won worlds best butter several times 😄
