0:00
- Hey y'all, we have decided
0:03
to do something a little bit different.
0:06
I, today, am kicking off
0:10
a kid's cooking camp,
0:13
which I think can be most helpful.
0:16
So you grandmothers out there
0:18
or you mothers, if you got a little one
0:20
that's interested in the kitchen, come in and join us
0:23
for these five, is it gonna be five shows, Theresa?
0:27
- [Theresa] Five shows, all in a row.
0:30
So I'm actually using,
0:33
this is my newest children's cookbook,
0:36
and it comes with a great little apron
0:40
for your chef in your family.
0:44
And it's full of wonderful little recipes.
0:48
So today I'm gonna start
0:51
with something that is important to a recipe,
0:56
and that's the difference between stirring and folding.
1:02
And we're making blueberry muffins.
1:05
And it's important when you're making a muffin,
1:11
that you don't over mix it.
1:16
If it has lumps in it, that's quite all right.
1:18
It's not like a cake batter that you wanna get real smooth.
1:22
So, having said that,
1:26
I'm gonna start mixing our stuff together, kiddies.
1:30
And I've got plain flour.
1:38
Little flour stayed in there. There we go.
1:41
We've got baking powder
1:49
So we're gonna stir those using a whisk.
1:54
And you can get down with your stirring on this part.
2:00
This whisk is gonna almost act like a sifter for you.
2:06
So that's gonna incorporate the flour and the sugar
2:12
and your powders perfectly.
2:20
Now I'm going to take my two eggs
2:28
and I'm gonna just whip them up.
2:30
Again, I'm using a whisk.
2:33
You'll find that these are really,
2:35
really handy in the kitchen.
2:40
So you'll wanna get used to using one of 'em.
2:44
And I'm just gonna blend my milk.
2:52
and I'm just gonna beat those two things together.
3:03
And again, we can use the beating method for this.
3:11
So go around your bowl,
3:14
make sure you get it incorporated with your liquid.
3:29
And you're gonna enjoy the results of what you're doing.
3:37
You gonna get a good old blueberry muffin out of it.
3:46
All right, (metal clanking)
3:50
next I'm gonna add a teaspoon of vanilla extract.
4:07
And last, before we add our blueberries,
4:16
we're gonna add our melted butter
4:19
and then we are gonna start the folding.
4:23
We wanna fold that butter into our batter.
4:30
And to fold, you go down and over.
4:34
Down and over, down and over,
4:43
until that butter is incorporated.
4:50
♪ Down and over, down and over ♪
4:56
Now, your last, very last step is important,
5:02
because we want to gently fold our blueberries,
5:05
our fresh blueberries into our batter.
5:12
We don't wanna break 'em up,
5:22
until they're distributed throughout your batter.
5:35
And I think we've got it.
5:39
Now at this point, you can use paper liners
5:45
or you can spray your muffin tins with a non-stick spray.
5:52
But I have some muffin liners
5:58
Kinda looks like a carnival.
6:08
I am gonna fill those about two thirds of the way full.
6:23
- [Eddie] There we go.
6:25
- Well, kiddies, I just have to tell y'all,
6:28
your blueberry muffins turned out perfectly.
6:35
And it was all about when to stir, when to fold.
6:40
When to stir, when to fold
6:43
and you did it just right.
6:47
Now, if you want a copy of this cookbook,
6:50
go to Paula Deen Store, Eddie, is that right?
6:55
- What have we got coming up, oops, for children?
6:59
- [Theresa] We got four more days of cooking class.
7:02
- Yes. Four more days of cooking class.
7:07
And I tell you what, getting your kids in the kitchen
7:13
might just keep 'em out of trouble.
7:16
You never, never know. (chuckling)
7:18
- [Eddie] They might cook you dinner.
7:20
- They might cook you dinner, that's for sure, Eddie.
7:22
