2:18
question is what is the best side dish

to bring to a family gathering that will
2:24
need to travel in a car for about an
2:26
hour my last question is what is your
2:29
favorite recipe to make for a weeknight
2:31
meal hmm well Angela I hope I can get
2:36
you on the phone we're gonna have a long
2:38
conversation if I do well Angela hey
3:03
it's Paul and I'm so disappointed that
3:05
you didn't answer your question I mean
3:10
that you didn't answer your phone sorry
3:12
because I was gonna answer your
3:14
questions or try to but you didn't pick
3:18
up so you'll just have to watch this
3:20
podcast to see the answers to your
3:22
questions sorry I missed you girl have a
3:26
great day okay my first question is what
3:31
is the secret to not over baking cakes
3:33
and breads well it looks like she's
3:35
doing it because she said I've even sat
3:37
in front of and watching and testing it
3:39
and I will still over bake it well I was
3:43
gonna suggest that that you do that but
3:46
that's not seem to be helping you you do
3:51
just have to keep a close eye on things
3:57
like that and and you need to put a
4:01
thermometer in your oven and make sure
4:06
it's calibrated correctly because it
4:09
could be you thinking you're baking it
4:11
at 350 it could be 375 and that could be
4:15
the reason you're over baking it your
4:19
second question is what is the best side
4:20
dish to bring to a family gathering that
4:22
will need to travel in a car for an hour
4:25
oh my gosh honey there is so many good
4:29
recipes oh that will carry macaroni and
4:33
cheese
4:34
I made a broccoli casserole Sunday night
4:37
for all my children here and it was
4:41
delicious it'll travel well a good pasta
4:45
salad
4:46
that you don't have to worry about
4:48
heating up when you get there a good
4:51
potato salad or chicken salad any of
4:54
those would be all right for an hour and
4:56
wouldn't require further bacon let's see
5:01
what else a nice cheese and fruit tray
5:04
is great hold for an hour there's so
5:10
many things honey get out and get my
5:11
cooking start to looking because you
5:14
there's lots of good dishes and I'm sure
5:17
you'll pick a good one and my last
5:20
question is what is your favorite recipe
5:22
to make for a weeknight meal well Angela

precise you know it just depends on what
5:36
I have in the fridge for a real real
5:39
easy night I'll throw together tacos

7:12
the tail end of answering your questions
7:15
so you gonna have to watch this podcast
7:19
to get my answers but I want to talk to
7:25
you though about you over baking your
7:27
cakes and breads yeah do you have a
7:31
bread do you have a bread machine Angela
7:34
I do and you still over cook in it yes
7:40
well Eddie what could she be doing wrong
7:49
can you change your setting from light
7:51
to medium to dark crust and what do we
7:56
bake our bread on the light yeah we we
8:00
bake our bread on the light okay what
8:05
have you been cooking it on okay well
8:14
let's lower it and figure out now on
8:17
your cake baking and I told you that you
8:22
need to put a thermometer in your oven
8:24
and make sure it's calibrated correctly
8:26
because while you're baking it 350 it
8:29
might be 375 in your oven which caused
8:33
you to over bake so all you need is an
8:36
oven thermometer and you can check it
8:39
out so if if
8:41
three-fifty it's 375 you would know to
8:44
lower your temperature to 325 okay all
8:48
right but it's like it is yes and as
8:53
soon as they start pulling away from the
8:54
sides they are done but I always touch
8:59
the center of mine and if there's any
9:01
give you know then it needs a couple
9:03
more minutes but let me tell you how to
9:06
fix an over bake cake okay I take like a
9:11
cup of water and I don't know how much
9:15
sugar maybe a half a cup of sugar and I
9:18
get that hot and I stir it until the
9:22
sugar melts and then I lay my cake
9:26
layers out and I pierce them with with a
9:30
fork or something like that or that the
9:34
handle on a wooden spoon you know it's
9:37
good and then I just brushed that simple
9:41
syrup over all of them and that way that
9:44
will put moisture back in your cakes I
9:50
like you have over bake the cake a time
9:53
or two well yes
9:57
are you still in Costco oh my gosh well
