0:04
I promised y'all that I was gonna make you something
0:06
that slithers through the grass,
0:10
well that's what we're fixing to make next.
0:12
We're gonna bake a snake.
0:15
Now this is just an ordinary canned crescent row
0:19
that we're gonna start with, which makes it real easy.
0:24
I'm gonna put a little flour on our board,
0:27
'cause we don't want it sticking,
0:30
but not too, too much because I don't want it so dry
0:35
that I can't see all those perforated edges.
0:38
I'm gonna just press them together,
0:41
so our snake won't have any holes in him.
0:44
I think we've gotten those looking pretty good.
0:48
Okay, we're gonna take our flour and dust our rolling pin.
0:55
Roll him long ways and try to get it as much length
1:01
out of this piece of dough as we can.
1:06
We got a pretty good looking snake going on.
1:12
Right now, I'm just gonna use a mustard,
1:14
and I'm using kind of a spicy mustard.
1:17
I'm just gonna spread this on.
1:21
Now, you can use any kind of meat you want.
1:23
I'm using a salami, love salami,
1:27
and I'm just gonna line them up
1:29
just like that down the middle
1:33
until I get to the end of the pastry.
1:38
And then I'm gonna come in with some real thin ham,
1:48
All right, now we're gonna add some cheese,
1:50
and you can add any kind of cheese you want.
1:54
I'm using a little Jack.
1:57
I like a white cheese with our snake.
2:01
Now we're gonna fold that over and fold this over,
2:09
and I'm gonna take our brush
2:12
and we're just gonna dampen that edge just like that,
2:17
so that we can seal him up.
2:21
Okay, now I'm gonna flip him one more time.
2:25
I'm gonna kind of roll him up together, kind of tight
2:28
and I'm gonna work him,
2:30
so he keeps getting a little longer and a little longer,
2:34
and then I'm gonna taper out the tail,
2:38
just making this pointed as you can down there.
2:41
All right, now we're gonna come back and work on his head,
2:44
not a big one, but just a little head.
2:47
All right, bathe him in an egg bath,
2:52
this is gonna give the skin of the snake
2:55
a real shiny pretty finish.
3:00
All right, now we're gonna paint our snake.
3:03
Just use food coloring
3:07
that's been beat up with a little yolk,
3:09
and you'll want it to kind of run down the sides like that.
3:13
Kids can use their imagination,
3:15
and the future artist will just have a ball
3:18
playing with this one.
3:21
We'll give his head a little Brown color,
3:24
and then kind of blended in there with the rest of him,
3:30
All we have to do now is put two cloves in for his nostril,
3:38
and we're gonna transfer him to the cookie sheet,
3:46
we'll get him slithering up there on to that pan.
3:52
Does he look pretty good?
3:57
All right, here he goes into the oven.
4:06
And let's go see what the other one looks like.
4:08
I put one in a little bit earlier
4:12
and let's see what he looks like.
4:21
He looks pretty good, doesn't he?
4:24
And we're gonna stick that red bell pepper tongue in there,
4:30
just like that, now all we need to add is the eyes.
4:46
I'm just gonna bite him before he bites me first.
4:52
And he really is a tasty snake.
