- Guess what I'm making next, y'all.
0:03
I am making individual strawberry shortcakes.
0:09
And in the old-timey,
0:12
in the older days,
0:15
you know, we didn't have those
0:16
little strawberry shortcake cups
0:19
that you could buy.
0:21
And so people made their strawberry shortcakes
0:23
using biscuits, sweet biscuits.
0:28
You know, you'd want some sugar in it.
0:30
So that's, I'm excited.
0:35
I am so excited.
0:37
So this is what we're gonna do.
0:43
We're gonna put our flour,
0:45
Uh-oh, come on, Paula.
0:48
Our baking powder,
0:53
a little salt,
0:55
and some sugar,
0:58
because this is going be
1:00
for a strawberry shortcake.
1:03
Alright, now I'm just gonna,
1:06
(food processor clicking)
1:09
just gonna pulse this around a little bit.
1:12
(food processor buzzing)
1:15
Get all those things mixed up.
1:17
(food processor buzzing)
1:22
(food processor buzzing)
1:26
Okay, now, I've got a stick of cold butter
1:30
that's been cut into slices,
1:34
and I'm gonna slowly, (chuckles)
1:39
drop in that cold butter.
1:41
My hair might be a little whiter,
1:44
a little more white when I get through this.
1:48
You know, and you don't have to use this recipe
1:53
you know, if you wanna make your own biscuits
1:57
with the way you've always done it,
1:59
you can do that,
2:00
but you just need to add sugar to it,
2:03
so that it'll be more cake-like.
2:06
Alright, now I think I'm going to just pulse it,
2:08
'cause I don't wanna over-beat it.
2:15
(food processor buzzing)
2:19
Okay, let's see what we got here.
2:24
Looks like we got
2:25
some real good buttered flour.
2:35
That's so much easier, y'all,
2:37
than having to cut that butter in,
2:41
you know, with a fork.
2:43
To me, that's just hard.
2:44
It wears my arm out, okay.
2:50
(food processor clattering)
2:53
Uh-uh, still a little warm,
2:54
but I think I'll be safe.
2:57
Okay, now we're just gonna make a well,
3:02
and we're gonna pour our cream in.
3:13
Actually, this is half-and-half.
3:24
Now, some people like to use their hands,
3:28
I'm gonna need some bench flour.
3:30
- [Theresa] Okay.
3:31
- [Paula] Theresa, here's your bowl.
3:38
(electronics buzzing)
3:45
- [Theresa] What bowl is it?
3:47
- Yeah, just put me, thank you.
3:49
(glassware clinking)
4:01
Now this is supposed to make like eight biscuits,
4:06
but I can tell you right now,
4:07
I probably won't get eight biscuits,
4:10
'cause I'm gonna make mine healthy.
4:17
Okay, thank you, Theresa.
4:25
I don't mind doing it
4:26
right on my counter because,
4:32
I just use my blade,
4:36
and they get it right off.
4:40
Alright, so we are gonna get this
4:46
mixed together by hand.
4:48
Alright, now we're gonna just do our mashing
4:56
to get it in a dough ball,
5:00
and we just gonna fold it over.
5:04
Of course, we don't wanna overdo it, y'all,
5:09
'cause it could make our biscuits tough.
5:14
- [Theresa] Well, Paula, one thing I went ahead and did,
5:16
- Uh-huh.
5:17
- Is mix up your strawberries.
5:19
- Oh yes, yes,
5:20
and I appreciate that.
5:21
- Just so you could-
5:22
- That was my first step, y'all,
5:24
was sweetened strawberries.
5:28
You slice your strawberries,
5:29
and let that be drinking up that sugar.
5:37
Did you add some more sugar to it,
5:38
since we, - I sure did.
5:39
- Thank you.
5:42
She's a mind reader.
5:45
Alright, now I got my,
5:46
(pan clattering)
5:50
I heated me some melted butter
5:58
in my hoecake pan,
6:06
'cause I like to cook that in my cast iron.
6:11
Alright, so I'd like to make these biscuits
6:14
a little bit bigger,
6:15
but there's just,
6:25
there's just, I don't think,
6:27
that quite enough dough
6:30
to get as many biscuits as I would like.
6:34
Two, four, six, seven.
6:36
I am gonna get eight biscuits.
6:39
I think the recipe calls
6:41
for like a three-inch biscuit.
7:02
And I am gonna get one more.
7:08
Yes sir, buddy.
7:19
Okey-dokey, that gets it.
7:22
Now, I'm gonna brush the tops of 'em
7:27
with half-and-half,
7:30
and that'll just kind of give it a glossy look,
7:34
and it's gonna help me keep that sugar,
7:40
'cause I'm gonna sprinkle some more sugar on top.
7:43
And that half-and-half will help
7:45
hold that sugar on that biscuit.
7:56
And if you wanna make sure
7:57
they're good and glossy,
7:59
I mean you could use a beaten egg.
8:04
Okey-dokey, here we go with the sugar.
8:14
I think the recipe calls
8:15
for about a teaspoon of sugar sprinkled on.
8:22
- [Theresa] This girl can make a mess, can she?
8:23
- Yes, I can.
8:40
Have I sugared 'em all?
8:41
I can't tell.
8:45
- Let me take a look.
8:47
- I can't tell once it soaks out.
8:48
- That one.
8:50
- Yeah, yeah, I did, yeah.
8:54
It's hard to tell 'cause it turns white.
8:57
Alright, so we're gonna put these in the oven.
8:58
I'm gonna put them in my oven at like 350,
9:02
but I think it calls for,
9:03
what, a 400-degree oven?
9:06
But they would,
9:08
it'd be a little hot for my oven.
9:11
So here we go,
9:15
our strawberry shortcake,
9:18
huckleberry pie. - Such a messy hand.
9:21
- Oh, wait, wait, wait.
9:22
I just, uh-oh.
9:25
I just feel like one of 'em might be shy.
9:30
And I'm real funny,
9:32
I like everything to be equal,
9:35
(Paula chuckles)
9:36
whether it's all my children, or,
9:39
- Let me grab this before- - My pot of food.
9:42
Alright, y'all,
9:43
we're gonna cook those biscuits
9:45
for about 12 to 15 minutes
9:48
until they're nice and brown.
9:50
And then we're gonna let 'em cool
9:52
just a minute,
9:53
and then we're gonna slice 'em
9:54
and we're gonna start putting our strawberry,
9:57
and the juices in there,
9:59
and some whipped cream,
10:00
and some more strawberries,
10:01
and some more whipped cream.
10:06
It's gonna be so good.
10:08
Nine big biscuits,
10:10
sweet biscuits waiting for you, oh.
10:18
Look at that,
10:19
I can't wait to put one together.
10:25
And you got to let 'em cool just a minute,
10:30
so you can cut 'em,
10:31
and these are gonna be real short
10:38
because they had so much butter in them, alright.
10:45
So do you like a lot of juice
10:50
on your strawberry shortcake,
10:54
or no?
10:57
I like a lot of juice.
11:00
So now my strawberries,
11:06
since they didn't have time to sit very long
11:10
and for the juices to come out,
11:12
I added a little hot water to 'em.
11:21
Okay, and I got some whipping cream.
11:25
Now, I don't want that,
11:28
I don't want that whipping cream
11:31
to melt from these biscuits.
11:35
So I'm gonna put a little layer right in there.
11:40
Why am I whispering?
11:42
(Paula snorting)
11:45
Why am I whispering?
11:51
And you know that,
11:57
that Eddie and Theresa gave up sweets for Lent.
12:03
So guess what?
12:06
I have to eat this by myself,
12:11
Which I hate that I have to do that, y'all.
12:19
I need to call Michael,
12:20
I wonder if Michael's home, okay.
12:35
Theresa, could you call Michael
12:38
and see if he is around?
12:41
And because I think,
12:44
you know, I hate to eat alone,
12:49
but if I have to, I will.
12:58
Shut up.
13:00
I'll just drop it out of my mouth.
13:04
This is so delicious.
13:07
And those biscuits are so short
13:09
because of that stick of butter, mm.
13:13
So Michael, I fixed me one,
13:16
you know, 'cause I always like to taste stuff
13:18
so I can tell somebody if it's extra good,
13:20
or you know, just okay,
13:23
this is the best strawberry shortcake
13:25
I've ever put in my mouth.
13:27
- Well, good.
13:28
I should be the first one to taste stuff.
13:30
- Well, you weren't here.
13:31
- Well, that's my job.
13:33
- And these biscuits are so good.
13:38
Alright, now let me ask you something.
13:39
I should know this,
13:41
but do you like,
13:43
- Yes, the juice. - A lot of,
13:44
ah, me too, me too.
13:46
- I don't even like those spoons.
13:49
- Oh, well, wait.
13:51
I'm fixing you up.
13:54
- That's like with beans,
13:55
you use slotted spoons, I don't.
13:57
- Yeah.
14:03
Look at that.
14:05
Oops, I was about to forget the best part.
14:10
One of the best parts.
14:13
Alright, here we go.
14:15
- Oh, it's like a sandwich.
14:17
- Yeah.
14:31
- I am swallowing hard again,
14:33
it's like, (laughing)
14:35
It's like I want another one.
14:41
- I said fix a little one,
14:42
well, it can't be a little one.
14:44
(Paula laughing)
14:46
- Enjoy, and I want to know.
14:48
- Thank you.
14:49
- Mm-hm.
14:51
I'm bringing you a spoon.
14:55
I want you to tell me what you think.
14:59
Is it sliding off?
15:04
- Here, You want a bite?
15:05
- No, I've already had my whole one.
15:11
- Hm, I need a little bowl.
15:13
- You need a bowl?
15:14
(Paula laughing)
15:16
Well, you asked for juice
15:17
so I made it juicy for you.
15:20
- That is delicious.
15:22
- I know, it's like the best I've ever tasted,
15:24
and y'all, so easy.
15:26
- I would've never thought that
15:27
because you do one with a pound cake,
15:30
that is pretty strong. - Yeah, yeah.
15:32
But you know, back in the day,
15:35
we, people didn't have those little
15:39
strawberry shortcake cups,
15:41
and the cooks would use biscuits,
15:46
sweet biscuits.
15:47
- Huh.
15:49
- For the shortcake.
15:50
- Oh, my gosh, it's,
15:51
could y'all please- - And that stuff
15:53
does not hold a candle to,
15:54
- Oh, I don't even like 'em.
15:57
But that's what mommy used to use
15:59
when she made strawberry shortcake.
16:00
I ate it.
16:01
- [Theresa] Me too.
16:02
- But it wasn't like this.
16:05
- This is delicious.
16:05
- This is like dreamland, mm.
16:10
- Glad you didn't get me a little one.
16:12
(Paula laughing)
16:14
- Love and best dishes, y'all.
16:16
If you wanna put a smile on your man's face
16:19
or your woman's face, oh.
16:21
(hand slapping)
16:24
Sorry y'all had to see that.
16:25
(Paula and Michael laughing)
16:27
Make 'em a strawberry shortcake, y'all.
16:31
You're a turd.
16:32
- I love y'all.
