We're going to do a quick
1:00
musing about the lies. I tell
1:02
myself, and I'm pretty sure you
1:04
tell yourself, definitely Chris, he ain't
1:06
tells himself. Then we're going to
1:08
do a debate club. We haven't
1:10
done one in a while. And if
1:12
you're a fan of ranch dressing
1:14
or Caesar dressing, brace yourself.
1:16
Because we're going to declare a
1:19
winner. One will die and you'll never be
1:21
able to eat it ever again. Because
1:23
it'll be such a definitive
1:25
argument. And I even know
1:27
which one I'm going to do it yet. And
1:29
then we're going to do a moeiff. And
1:31
then I will finish it off with an
1:34
actual recipe that we talked about, but I
1:36
didn't really get into. All right, let's get
1:38
on to the show. Welcome to the Dave Chang
1:40
Show, part of the Ringer Podcast Network,
1:42
presented by major domain media. Thank you
1:44
a lot. Ten was always. You can
1:47
watch this on our YouTube channel at
1:49
the Dave Chang show. And you can.
1:51
Sign up for our Discord channel and
1:53
sign up for all the things we
1:55
do on YouTube and Spotify. Yeah,
1:57
before we get in, I think this
1:59
might... be a little bit of break. I'm not
2:01
sure because I'm not sure what's going to happen
2:03
tomorrow. I'm getting surgery. I wasn't expecting
2:06
it. I heard this over the holidays
2:08
at X -rays in Japan. Solved
2:11
doctors here and they
2:13
were like, oh, it's most likely
2:15
a bone bruise. Then insurance in
2:17
this country sucks. I don't know
2:19
why I waited so long. I
2:21
should have just paid for it
2:23
myself and I want to do
2:25
just paying for it myself. And
2:27
turned out I got quite few
2:29
tears on my shoulder. I fell
2:31
down on my shoulder on some
2:33
ice and now it makes sense
2:36
why it hurts the way it does. The
2:38
one that's disgusting is my bicep
2:41
is separated off. And I realize that
2:43
it has to happen now because
2:45
the longer I wait, the more difficult
2:47
it is to repair. So going
2:49
under the knife will be, yeah,
2:53
we'll see. I think more specifically just
2:55
when you're younger, all you hear from
2:57
older people is take care of your
2:59
health, take care of your health. And
3:01
without a doubt turning 45, how old
3:03
are you now? 42. Yeah.
3:05
Okay, get ready. I
3:07
know it's coming. It's already started. It's
3:10
amazing how
3:13
rapid things are just falling
3:15
apart. So yeah,
3:17
just as like a PSA.
3:20
If you can take care of yourself now,
3:22
you should start taking care of yourself. I
3:24
mean, nobody's going to listen. It's like you
3:26
didn't listen. No one's going to listen. We
3:28
didn't listen. I mean, I didn't even listen
3:30
after my neck surgery. So I think that's
3:32
just the way it goes. But you know,
3:35
I'm grateful and hopefully it's
3:38
a quick recovery because we're trying
3:40
to thread the needle with
3:42
some other stuff that we have in
3:44
the works. Undoubtedly, it was always going
3:46
to be, it's an extended recovery time.
3:48
So it's always going to be tough,
3:50
but you know, yeah, it
3:53
sucks. It does suck, man. It
3:56
sucks. And also it's like you kind of had
3:58
to make a decision quickly and just go for it.
4:00
So, instead of telling people that I
4:02
fell on my shoulder on ice,
4:04
trying to go skiing with my
4:06
family in Japan, which I never
4:08
even got to do, because I
4:10
did it right when I got
4:12
out of the car, to the
4:14
hotel, I'm going to tell the
4:17
world I did it hurting myself,
4:19
playing fantasy football. Just like a
4:21
real football player. Why won't you
4:23
accept my trade? Or like, went
4:25
to press the mouse and I...
4:27
It went to bid on a
4:29
player too quickly. But that's not
4:31
why we're here talking on this
4:33
pod. You know, more and more
4:35
we're going to start doing some
4:37
random musings. And I was thinking
4:40
to myself on a walk, which
4:42
I'm doing now, because now I'm
4:44
not even allowed to run again.
4:46
So our major demo running thing
4:48
is going to take a hiatus.
4:50
So here I go walking again
4:52
on a lot. And you know
4:54
what? I'm grateful that I'm doing
4:56
this because ideas are coming to
4:58
me in a way that they
5:01
hadn't before. So I'm waking up
5:03
around 5 in the morning, usually
5:05
getting a better 5.20, keeping my
5:07
phone out in the kitchen, and
5:09
I'm getting better sleep. But getting
5:11
the schedule has been really good
5:13
for it. Like ideas, ideas that
5:15
I can talk about here. And
5:17
one of the things I've been
5:19
repeating in my head is, man,
5:21
I lied to myself. a lot.
5:24
Like I'm a pathological liar, maybe
5:26
in real life to other people,
5:28
but certainly to myself. And what
5:30
I mean by that is, it's
5:32
almost always in the territory of
5:34
food, right? What I mean by
5:36
that is, I think one that
5:38
most people might be able to
5:40
relate to, and let's just say,
5:42
I decide I'm going to get,
5:45
you know, a Samita, you know,
5:47
or some tacos, or some tacos,
5:49
or... I'm going to get the
5:51
chips and the guacamole and then
5:53
I'll get a dessert or I'm
5:55
at a fast food restaurant. I
5:57
think the most common... thing is
5:59
I'm gonna get a diet coke
6:01
or I'm gonna get water I'm
6:03
just gonna get a glass of
6:05
water. Honestly that 600 800 calories
6:07
from the soda is like not
6:10
gonna be the difference. Right. Most
6:12
people are, do you have that experience?
6:14
100% fast food it's like let me
6:16
get the the quarter pounder to
6:18
some chicken nuggets too or I get
6:20
two cheeseburgers and then oh what do
6:23
you want to drink with that? Just
6:25
water. Yeah but like that's to me
6:27
I think the standard lie. Sure. But
6:29
I've really dialed in the fact
6:31
that I lied to myself all
6:34
the time. It's actually crazy
6:36
when I think about it.
6:38
And it's almost always food
6:40
related. I bought salad to
6:43
make salad. And I bought a
6:45
mixed green box. I also have
6:47
some lettuce that I bought
6:49
from the farmers market two
6:52
weeks ago. That is literally
6:54
never going to be eaten.
6:56
But I'm like maybe it won't mold
6:58
maybe it won't turn into water
7:00
This is so funny and not
7:02
only that That box of lettuce that
7:05
I bought that I told myself
7:07
you should buy this because you're
7:09
gonna make salad It's a constant
7:11
reminder. I don't know why I'm
7:14
doing this to myself. It's a
7:16
constant reminder that nobody in my
7:18
family is gonna eat this and
7:21
I'm also not gonna eat this And
7:23
I don't know why I'm doing this
7:25
I have a full-on plastic clamshell
7:27
of sludge in my refrigerator just
7:30
right now. I don't know why
7:32
I keep on buying carrots and
7:34
baby carrots. I got generations of
7:36
baby carrots in my veg drawer
7:38
and I'm like, I'll eat this.
7:40
It's time to buy a new
7:42
one because the other one's old,
7:44
so I'm going to eat the
7:46
new one because I have
7:48
starting carrots now. You know how mental
7:50
that is? I'm literally registering, like I
7:52
gotta buy a new one because the
7:54
one that I promised myself before that
7:56
I was gonna buy is now like
7:59
literally turned into care. leather and
8:01
this time it's going to
8:03
be different. What
8:05
happens to carrots
8:07
in the crisper drawer
8:09
is a really sad thing. The
8:12
reason you also buy
8:14
them is they last forever
8:16
and I just I got
8:18
to stop this line to
8:21
myself. I'm not going to
8:23
buy I'm not going to
8:25
eat that ice cream
8:27
that's for the kids. Sometimes
8:30
abiding by Kito rules is just
8:32
as good as going Kito. No
8:34
bread today. Like one meal the
8:36
day. I don't have bread. Immediately
8:38
you broke your promise to
8:40
yourself. It's no different than
8:42
when you like are younger and you're
8:45
praying to a higher being like
8:47
I'm never gonna do this again if
8:49
you help me with this. Jobus, you
8:51
help me. This curveball. I'll never blah
8:54
blah blah. It's the same shit. Yeah.
8:56
And I'm tired of like literally. I'll
8:58
eat those leftovers tomorrow. Wrong. They're
9:00
never going to be in
9:03
the fridge. And here's the problem.
9:05
So we had mini kebab. Nobody
9:07
was eating the leftovers. I have
9:09
all this lavash, which I will get
9:11
to at the end of the podcast,
9:14
which is a real recipe. I
9:16
was like, I'm going to utilize
9:18
the lavash in ways. So I made
9:20
myself a little omelet, but I'm also
9:22
trying to eat less keto. You know
9:24
what I told myself? It's
9:27
lavash. I
9:29
am so crazy. This is crazy.
9:31
And I'll finish it on this.
9:33
I don't know if anyone else
9:36
feels like you have to eat
9:38
more metatrating. You gotta
9:40
do it. And I'm
9:42
literally now just telling myself,
9:44
like, I am so crazy.
9:46
This is crazy. And what I'll
9:48
finish it on this. I don't
9:50
know if anyone else feels this
9:53
way. So I have this box
9:55
of pork kebabs. on a better rice and I
9:57
was like I'm not gonna eat the rice I'm just gonna have
9:59
that that chart tomato and the jalapeno
10:01
and some of the hummus and I'm
10:04
gonna dip those carrots that I bought
10:06
in that hummus. This is what I'm
10:08
telling myself as I'm taking it out
10:10
and it's also a box while I
10:12
love many people I don't love eating
10:15
leftovers and now I'm so deeply unhappy
10:17
because no one else ate it so
10:19
I'm forcing myself to eat leftovers so
10:21
now I'm not happy about it. And
10:23
then I proceed to lie to myself
10:25
and I eat all the fucking rice.
10:28
The biggest lie you just skipped over
10:30
though, which is a very real lie
10:32
that I tell myself all the
10:34
time, which is me eating these
10:36
leftovers is a noble act. It
10:39
is important that I eat these
10:41
leftovers. It's the definition of a
10:43
subcost. And I'm doing exactly that.
10:46
It's like, what am I doing?
10:48
You know who would eat this? You know,
10:50
my dog. I'm just, I'm not
10:52
a leftover person. Can I, I'm
10:55
just gonna, just no, I'm out
10:57
of the closet. I'm gonna say
10:59
it. I fucking hate left. I
11:01
fucking hate left. And I know
11:03
it goes every, it goes against
11:06
everything that I hold dear about
11:08
food, right? But like, I
11:10
don't consider, you know, I
11:12
have some beef nood soup, Taiwanese
11:14
beef noodle soup. And I keep
11:17
on looking at it. I can make
11:19
some. Like noodles and I
11:21
can make a nice meal whatever I
11:23
can cook that for my I'm just
11:25
like look at it and it's there
11:27
and it's a constant reminder
11:30
that You're gonna eat this and
11:32
as you said it's a noble thing
11:34
I What am I doing how long will
11:36
you leave? I'm with you. How long
11:38
will you leave that left over in
11:40
the fridge? Just as a pen
11:42
of knowing you're never need it.
11:44
It doesn't make I'm just going
11:47
to like So flagellate myself
11:49
when I have to throw it away
11:51
forever and it bothers me as a
11:53
personal rule I Understand the
11:55
contradiction or maybe you don't like
11:58
I hate throwing food away So
12:00
the line to myself is causing this
12:02
and I'm like I can I'm the
12:04
root of all this I could just
12:06
stop buying it because you know what
12:09
I realized? My kids don't eat my
12:11
cooking right now You know what I
12:13
mean? I mean they do but like
12:15
I'm buying ingredients that they're wasteful. Yeah,
12:17
yeah, they aren't gonna. Yeah, I'm just
12:19
gonna I feel you why am I
12:21
buying them yogurt? What why am I
12:23
buying bananas? They fucking hate bananas You
12:25
know what I mean? It's like, this
12:28
time they're gonna like the bananas. It's
12:30
wishful thinking. You know, it's wishful thinking.
12:32
They're gonna eat the Brussels sprouts. But
12:34
the bananas is a real problem. Yeah,
12:36
I know. I know. I know. I
12:38
know. I know. And then like the
12:40
thing is like, I'll never eat those
12:42
bananas either. The lies have to stop.
12:44
I understand the... The paradox contradiction and
12:46
the hypocrisy. The mendaciousness. Ooh. I like,
12:49
I, for anybody out there who's like,
12:51
come on. If you tell me you
12:53
don't do it, fuck you, because that's
12:55
a lie. No, but I want to
12:57
say, yeah, because if you're saying you
12:59
don't do this, that's a lie. But
13:01
also, I want to respond to anybody
13:03
who's like, come on Dave, like don't
13:05
beat yourself up, like this, it's fine.
13:07
No. No more. No more, the lies,
13:10
the lies, the lies, stop, stop, stop
13:12
now. I'm a compulsive liar to myself
13:14
about food and it's got to stop.
13:16
It has to stop. I have to
13:18
hold myself accountable through the fucking lies
13:20
I tell myself. Yeah, it's funny man.
13:22
You're totally right. The lies, the lies,
13:24
the lies go deep. Oh, you didn't
13:26
ever lie to yourself. Oh, I, yeah.
13:29
Well, though, your voice just quivered. Oh,
13:31
I was trying, I was gonna try
13:33
to say that there are moments where
13:35
I feel like I'm finally embracing honesty.
13:37
It's not, you don't need to eat
13:39
this leftover. It's not gonna help anybody.
13:41
If you put it in the compost
13:43
bin, it's fine. It's not that.
13:45
me stopping lying to
13:47
myself is like,
13:50
I know I'm going
13:52
to eat this
13:54
and I know I'm
13:56
going to feel
13:58
bad and I'm going
14:00
to do it
14:02
anyway, which I would
14:04
also like to
14:06
stop. I'm
14:09
going to try, I'm going to try to lie and
14:11
you should ask yourself what lies you tell yourself
14:13
about food. You know
14:15
what? Here's the deal. You can
14:17
send it in to ask Dave
14:19
at majordomoemedia.com. We'd love to hear
14:21
the lies you tell yourself about
14:23
food. How about that? Nice. Well
14:26
done. Voice memo too. Voice memo.
14:28
30 second voice memo. No. Just
14:31
write it in. Let's take
14:33
a break. When we get
14:35
back, we're going to talk
14:37
about Caesar or ranch. This

15:12
right, folks. We
15:15
usually have more people on the Bay Club, but
15:18
we need somebody be able to determine a
15:20
winner though. I think I think it'll be
15:22
self -evident. Okay. What
15:25
is it? Producers, who's got
15:27
what? Because Ying and I are going
15:29
to debate which salad dressing is better
15:31
in true debate club style. Right?
15:34
Who's defending what? Dave, you
15:37
defend ranch. Chris, you
15:40
defend Caesar dressing. You
15:42
want to trade? It's up to
15:44
you. You want it? You want Caesar?
15:46
I want Caesar because I think it's
15:48
the more difficult stance. Okay. You want
15:50
Caesar because it's the more difficult stance.
15:52
So the global salad dressing market,
15:55
$80 billion
15:57
USD in 2020.
15:59
We might be working on
16:01
salad chestings because
16:03
that number is so big.
16:06
The Momoku CPG team. But
16:08
because of those conversations
16:10
that we've had, and
16:12
this is something that may
16:14
or may not happen, but
16:16
you have these ideation sessions
16:19
with the team, you just don't
16:21
realize like how much. Ranch
16:24
and Caesar. I would imagine that Ranch
16:26
and Caesar are the one and two
16:29
in the world. There are many
16:31
many flavors of ranch dressing. I
16:33
think that Ranch is the most
16:35
popular by far number one. I
16:37
don't have to check. Developed
16:40
in the 60s by Mr. Steve
16:42
Henson in the 50s. I'm impressed.
16:44
Nice job Steve Steve Steve Steve
16:46
Henson. I'm impressed. Nice
16:48
job Steve Steve Steve Steve. Nice
16:51
job Steve Steve Steve. I'm impressed.
16:53
And then Clorox bought, of all
16:55
the companies, Clorox buys Hidden Valley
16:58
Ranch in 1972. It's a nice
17:00
white colored sauce. 1983 they come
17:02
up with the first bottled salad
17:04
dressings. And I remember this bag.
17:07
I didn't even know what ranch
17:09
dressing was, but I do remember
17:11
eating my first cool ranch Dorito
17:14
chip. The blue bag. The red
17:16
speckles on it. Yeah, cool ranch
17:18
is an all-time name. Ranch
17:20
dressing total 1.3 billion
17:23
dollars last year. And
17:25
if you think about it, last
17:27
year in the US, 1.26
17:30
billion dollars of ketchup was
17:32
sold. So ranch. Cushing.
17:34
Cushing. So I think we'll get
17:36
into this. It's easier to
17:39
debate that, you know, like,
17:41
Cesar, I mean, ranch is
17:43
basically like taking like, like,
17:45
you know, ranch is basically
17:48
like taking like, you know,
17:50
America right now. Yeah,
17:52
for sure. Ranch is, like, that
17:55
says it all, right? There's
17:57
more ranch sold than
17:59
ketchup. I think
18:01
Caesar dressing, honestly, is a
18:03
little bit more like Mexico,
18:06
where it was invented by
18:08
Mr. Ritz. No, no, by
18:10
Caesar Cardini. Caesar Cardini. Excuse
18:12
me. I thought it was
18:15
at the Ritz Hotel. No.
18:17
Caesar's Palace in Tijuana. Cesar
18:19
Cardini. Wow, I've had that
18:22
wrong. I got a confused
18:24
too. What? Much, much less.
18:26
Much, like a tenth of
18:29
the sales of ranch. $150
18:31
million? Mm-hmm. You like an
18:33
underdog? That is shocking. I
18:36
would have thought that it
18:38
was higher than that. Yeah,
18:40
it's interesting though. That's part
18:42
of the debate, right? Because
18:45
do people dress their salads
18:47
at home with Caesar or
18:49
do they typically buy a
18:52
Caesar kit? And I wonder
18:54
if this includes that. So,
18:56
let's begin. Let the debate
18:59
club begin. I don't even
19:01
know how this starts because
19:03
no one invited me to
19:06
model UN. I'm so ill-prepared
19:08
for this. Opening statements, I
19:10
think. Okay. Is that how
19:12
it goes? I don't know.
19:15
That was the only nerd
19:17
club I wasn't in. I
19:19
believe that Ranch Dressing is
19:22
just a vehicle for MSG.
19:24
And it could have been
19:26
anything else. And listen, it's
19:29
delicious. But it's owned by
19:31
Clorox, right? That's weird. Ranch
19:33
dressing, while it's great on
19:36
pizza, it's also one of
19:38
the only ways I'll eat
19:40
a lot of vegetables. You
19:43
know, I'll prefer ranch dressing
19:45
than blue cheese with wings
19:47
and celery and carrots. I'm
19:49
not here to talk about
19:52
the virtues of ranch dressing.
19:54
But I do think that
19:56
it's been. Mostly marketing. There's
20:00
what if you go to the
20:03
grocery store, there's probably
20:05
like 26 different kind
20:07
of ranch dressings It is
20:09
the pumpkin spice of the
20:11
salad dressing world Where
20:14
it's all marketing mumbo
20:16
jumbo if people really
20:18
knew They probably wouldn't
20:20
eat so much ranch because
20:22
I don't think people realize
20:25
that it's really just a
20:27
vector for umami It's
20:30
okay? Okay. This is, and
20:32
I'll, my last, last
20:34
statement on this.
20:36
Caesar salad dressing is
20:38
better because it's not
20:41
something you can, I
20:43
mean, yes, you can buy it,
20:45
but I think why it makes
20:47
it, why it has an advantage
20:50
of a ranch, ranch
20:52
dressing, which I can
20:54
make at home, is not
20:57
as good as the bottle.
20:59
version. It just isn't. Cesar
21:01
dressing is not as
21:03
good bottled, but superior
21:06
homemade in the moment.
21:08
And I think that delta
21:10
of how delicious Cesar dressing,
21:13
good Cesar dressing is done
21:15
in the like moment where
21:18
you're making it all a
21:20
minute. That is much greater
21:22
than Cesar versus Ranch
21:24
making ranch, making ranch
21:27
dressing at home. or
21:29
in a restaurant. You know,
21:31
like, I feel like you
21:33
have to have both.
21:36
Seas addressing is good.
21:38
You can definitely have
21:40
it in a little cup
21:42
or a salad bowl, whatever,
21:45
purchased, but also
21:47
clearly delicious
21:49
homemade. Ranch, super
21:51
good in a bottle. Homemade,
21:54
I don't know. Here we
21:56
go. This
22:00
is exactly like the UN. First,
22:02
I want to thank Spotify
22:05
and the Ringer for hosting
22:07
this debate tonight. Bull shit.
22:09
Thank you to my opponent
22:11
for agreeing to this. I
22:13
did ask for three debates.
22:15
He asked for one. Let
22:18
that say what it is.
22:20
My opponent's going to throw
22:22
a lot of big phrases
22:24
at you. Vector for Umami.
22:26
He's gonna say, he's gonna
22:28
talk about MSG. And when
22:31
they go low, we go high.
22:33
And I wanna say right
22:35
off the bat, I love
22:37
your dressing. I love Caesar
22:39
dressing. I think it
22:42
is a fantastic creation.
22:44
I love that it
22:46
has its roots in
22:48
Tijuana. I love that
22:50
it's, uh, the purpose it
22:53
serves, which is. largely
22:55
for the Caesar salad.
22:58
Why I think that
23:00
ranch should be the
23:02
one dressing to
23:04
coat them all is because
23:07
of its versatility.
23:10
I don't believe in
23:12
my heart that a
23:15
Caesar dressing would go
23:17
great on. any kind of
23:19
salad. I think that a
23:21
Caesar salad is a perfect construction,
23:24
not just the dressing, but
23:26
the fact that it is Romaine
23:28
and Parmesan and Croutons ideal
23:30
for a Caesar dressing. Yes,
23:32
Clorox bought a certain kind of
23:35
ranch dressing, hidden valley specifically. I
23:37
don't want you all to think...
23:39
that because my dressing, my client,
23:41
is this white dressing, that it
23:44
somehow has something to do with
23:46
the Clorox company and the bleach
23:48
that they generally produce. Ranch dressing
23:50
goes on everything. Yes, it's better
23:53
out of the bottle. I will grant you
23:55
that I think that there's no reason
23:57
to make your own ranch dressing at
23:59
home. I agree with that as
24:01
well, but I struggled to
24:03
think of a thing that
24:06
cannot be dressed with ranch,
24:08
whether it is pizza or
24:10
fries or any of the
24:12
salads, whether it is a
24:14
iceberg lettuce, a romaine lettuce,
24:16
a spinach salad, all of
24:18
them can do with a
24:20
little bit of ranch dressing.
24:22
I don't know what it
24:24
has to do with pumpkin
24:27
spice. I don't think there's
24:29
a lie here at all.
24:31
I think it is a
24:33
tangy, lightly herb -y, delicious,
24:35
savory dressing that is not
24:37
limited to just your salads.
24:39
And I think the fact
24:41
that it's so ubiquitous in
24:43
this time, in this country,
24:45
where we feel so divided,
24:48
the one thing that unites
24:50
us all is a cool,
24:52
wet blanket of ranch dressing.
24:54
Exactly, sir. A wet blanket.
24:56
Shit! No,
25:03
I'm just saying, like, you know,
25:05
if this was a political
25:08
ad, they would cut out wet
25:10
blankets over and over and
25:12
over again because that's exactly what
25:14
it is. White! I misspoke
25:16
white blankets! It's a white blanket!
25:20
There's complexity, number one, there's complexity
25:22
in Caesar dressing. It's acidic
25:24
from the lemon juice. It has
25:26
natural umami. I love it,
25:28
MSG, don't get me wrong, but
25:32
anchovies, Worcestershire sauce, Parmesan, you
25:34
get all kinds of
25:36
umami. It is like all
25:38
different notes. You also
25:40
have egg yolk, which also
25:42
has a lot of
25:44
umami in it. It
25:47
is truly a modern dressing
25:49
that incorporates cultures from all
25:51
over the world. Worcestershire
25:54
sauce actually has fish sauce
25:56
in it as well. You
25:58
have Parmesan cheese. You got mustard
26:01
from France. It's made by
26:03
a Mexican chef in an
26:05
Italian restaurant. You
26:07
know, what's more, you can make
26:10
it with fish sauce if you want
26:12
to do that. You can do it
26:14
with a lime instead of
26:16
lemon. Oh, it's balanced. When
26:18
you taste it, you can
26:20
taste at least four different
26:22
flavors on your palate.
26:25
Ranch is pretty, you know.
26:27
As you say, if taste
26:29
is so one note, it
26:31
feels like a wet blanket.
26:34
Two, ranch dressing is
26:36
not something you want
26:38
to coat your lettuce in.
26:41
It's not. It's something,
26:43
as again, Chris Ying
26:45
alluded to, it dresses
26:48
your food like a
26:50
wet blanket. That's disgusting.
26:53
I say, that's just
26:56
straight disgusting. Caesar dressing
26:58
has the ability because
27:00
it's a technically a
27:03
dressing it is an
27:05
emulsification which is what
27:07
you want in a salad dressing
27:10
Ranch dressing truly
27:12
is either sour cream Buttermilk
27:14
and or mayonnaise flavored
27:17
with some Thried onions
27:19
garlic powder some dehydrated chives Some
27:21
wishes she or sauce or not,
27:23
but mostly MSG. And that pisses
27:26
me out because I love MSG.
27:28
But the reason why people love
27:30
it, it just, it shows the
27:33
popularity and power of MSG.
27:35
Here's another, I think just very
27:37
strong argument why C's
27:39
addressing is just superior to
27:41
ranch dressing. Have you ever tried
27:44
to heat up ranch? Has anyone
27:46
tried to heat up ranch? Has anyone
27:48
tried to heat up ranch? Has
27:50
anyone tried to heat up ranch?
27:52
Do yourself a favor. If you want
27:55
to use the microwave, if
27:57
you want to use a stove, do
27:59
yourself. a favor. Heat up some
28:01
ranch and taste it. Good luck
28:03
with that one. That's literally one
28:06
of the most vile flavors I
28:08
couldn't imagine and textures in one's
28:10
palate. Have you ever tried to
28:13
heat up Caesar dressing? It's awesome.
28:15
It's so good in a variety
28:17
of things. And here's another thing
28:20
that ranch dressing just can't do
28:22
in terms of its versatility. You
28:24
can't marinate. You know it's great.
28:27
C's addressing as a marination for
28:29
steak, beef, or chicken. You can
28:31
put it on sandwiches. Not that
28:34
you can't with ranch, but ranch
28:36
is more of a dipping sauce,
28:38
not a salad dressing. So I
28:40
mean, it's such a self-evident argument,
28:43
I'm not even talk about dressing.
28:45
Again, ranch is a dipping sauce,
28:47
aka wet blanket. Okay? I'm so
28:50
sad about that. Nobody makes ranch
28:52
dressing from home at home. Nobody.
28:54
Except me sometimes. And you know
28:57
why? I'm too lazy to go
28:59
to the market and the supermarket
29:01
and buy bottle ranch. And you
29:04
know what? You know why? I'm
29:06
bummed about that. I don't get
29:08
a discount when I go to
29:11
the grocery store on my bottle
29:13
of bleach from coal rocks when
29:15
I buy a bottle of hidden
29:17
valley ranch. Because I think you
29:20
should. They're made by the same
29:22
company. They're their best friends. Who
29:24
wants to? I have bleached next
29:27
to their salad dressing. I mean
29:29
you can't just wash your clothes
29:31
with ranch too though. So I'm
29:34
just gonna rest my case there.
29:36
It's about the versatility. It's a
29:38
it's a really a modern dressing
29:41
made a hundred years ago by
29:43
a Mexican chef again in an
29:45
Italian restaurant using global flavors and
29:48
ranch dressing was really made by
29:50
a marketing firm in the 1950s
29:52
attributed to cowboys Mr. Henson. that
29:54
honestly is fake like the Marlboro
29:57
men. We
30:02
didn't even know his name
30:04
five seconds ago. All right.
30:06
Is it my turn? My opponent
30:08
here criticized Ranch for
30:10
being, I believe he
30:12
said one note, and
30:14
he celebrated the four flavors
30:17
of a Caesar dressing. Four
30:19
flavors. Four flavors. I mean,
30:21
one flavor was good enough
30:23
for my daddy. It was good
30:26
enough for his daddy. Four
30:28
flavors, Dave. That's too many
30:30
flavors. What, what, when did
30:32
this country become about all
30:34
these different flavors? One flavor
30:36
that is delicious and creamy
30:38
and yes, umami is plenty
30:40
for me. And warm, warm
30:42
dollop of ranch dressing in
30:45
your mouth. Excuse me, excuse
30:47
me, excuse me. I don't want to
30:49
be a fear monger. I don't,
30:51
I really don't. Some of my
30:53
best friends are anchovies. But where
30:55
are these anchovies coming from? Where
30:58
how are they getting here?
31:00
And then he says there's
31:02
worse sure sure sauce from
31:04
England? Mustered from France?
31:06
There's not enough good
31:08
stuff in America just to
31:10
make your own delicious American
31:13
dressing and then what did
31:15
he say? It's an emulsifar
31:17
cation I can't pronounce it
31:19
and I don't want it Here's
31:22
some things I can't pronounce
31:24
Dave Buttermilk Rich.
31:26
Dill. Steve. Dill is
31:28
grown. Steve Henson. And
31:30
finally, I know I
31:32
said I wouldn't go
31:35
on the attack here and
31:37
I really don't want
31:39
to. And I'm not going
31:41
to waste your time reading
31:44
past quotes, but I
31:46
would ask you the listener
31:48
to simply go online and
31:51
Google. David Chang and Chicken
31:53
Bacon Ranch, and I think
31:55
you are going to find
31:58
some alarming positive praise. that
32:00
my opponent has had. I
32:02
never said I disliked Ranch.
32:05
What I'm simply saying very
32:07
clearly is that Ranch is
32:09
not as amazing or as
32:12
powerful as C's addressing. And
32:14
as my friend Steve Plotnicki
32:16
used to say, the great
32:19
german, truly great german, one
32:21
of the greatest of all
32:23
time. As he used to
32:26
say, you can not say
32:28
that's Salieri. was better than
32:30
Mozart. She just can't. And
32:33
maybe Chris, you should listen
32:35
to some Salieri because that's
32:37
exactly what ranch dressing is
32:40
to the Mozart. That is
32:42
Caesar dressing. I'm pretty sure
32:44
Mozart here. I'm pretty sure.
32:47
Everybody thinks of the resistance,
32:49
but the reality is Mozart
32:51
is Caesar dressing. End of
32:54
story. You know, you can
32:56
like Salieri all you want,
32:58
buddy. Only have one. For
33:01
the rest of my life.
33:03
One dressing. It would be
33:05
ranch. That's pathetic. I'm only
33:08
shake your hand. I will
33:10
not. I am. I will
33:12
not stoop to this level.
33:15
What's insane is that you
33:17
made a switch right before
33:19
this. This is American politics
33:22
and it much. We could
33:24
have got either way. Well,
33:27
I think the producers have
33:29
to let us know who
33:32
were in the Supreme. I
33:34
need one minute of closing
33:36
statements. Both of you gave
33:38
the first. You know, my
33:40
candidate, the candidate over here
33:43
just mentioned something that was
33:45
really sad. But unfortunately true.
33:47
That we are what we
33:49
eat and it is a
33:52
representation of the divided America
33:54
that we live in. And
33:56
listen. You can choose what
33:58
you want. Right? But I
34:01
would rather choose a salad
34:03
dressing that delivers
34:05
on its promise. That's
34:07
not just one sour
34:09
cream thing. That is
34:12
multicultural. That has all
34:14
kinds of balance. And
34:16
that's what we need.
34:19
It literally is a
34:21
salad dressing that takes
34:23
from both aisles. Both the
34:25
worlds. And that's what
34:27
I'm trying to say
34:30
is, it's better because
34:32
it's a little bit
34:34
of everything. And
34:36
I'm not trying to say
34:38
ranch isn't great, but
34:41
the difference is like,
34:43
I can have a
34:45
conversation with ranch, but
34:48
ranch can have a
34:50
conversation with me. Ranch
34:52
doesn't want to use.
34:55
All right, here are
34:57
my closing statements.
34:59
I'm gonna read off a list
35:01
here. Regular, cheesy, creamy
35:04
jalapeno, spicy hot
35:07
honey, garlic, Parmesan,
35:09
sizzling Nashville hot,
35:11
green, goddess, pickle, buffalo,
35:14
avocado, buttermilk, bacon,
35:16
southwest, coleslaw, and
35:18
spicy. Those are
35:20
just some of the
35:22
varieties of the varieties
35:24
of ranch. dressing
35:27
available to you as
35:29
an American citizen.
35:32
Caesar dressing, I
35:34
love it. It was great.
35:36
It's the dressing of
35:38
our oldest generation.
35:40
It was invented
35:42
in the 1920s.
35:45
Ranch is about
35:47
progress. It is about
35:49
the future of this country.
35:51
Yes. Yes, it's about efficiency
35:54
today. Yes, yes, I want
35:56
to cut out some of
35:58
the fat. That's why there's
36:00
light ranch dressings as
36:03
well. Ranch dressing for
36:05
all its many facets
36:07
is this country's dressing.
36:09
It is now and
36:11
forever shall be this
36:14
country's dressing and it
36:16
will change with this
36:18
country as me and
36:20
my Dutch friends change
36:22
it for the bitter.
36:27
Thank you. Thank you again
36:29
to this hallowed institution for
36:31
hosting this debate. And thank
36:33
you to my opponent. There are
36:35
four of us in here. We
36:38
will take a minute to deliberate.
36:40
Okay, on a ruling of three
36:42
to one. Three to one. We
36:45
have decided teen ranch. Um, I
36:47
know. So, surprising. We were just
36:50
handed down a verdict of
36:52
three to one in favor of
36:54
ranch. If I ever wanted to
36:56
feel like Al Gore, man. I
36:59
do now because it's a bunch
37:01
of bullshit. A bunch of fucking
37:04
bullshit. This is crazy that the
37:06
producers voted down truly what is
37:08
American salad dressing and voted for
37:11
Ranch because they argued that
37:13
it's got a better argument. I'm
37:15
sorry folks. I just want to
37:18
say I want to say while
37:20
I... What is this world coming
37:22
to? While I treasure this victory.
37:25
And greatly appreciate it. Again, thank
37:27
you to the spot in the
37:30
Ringer Studios for hosting this. The
37:32
fact that I want is troubling.
37:35
It is troubling. It is
37:37
troubling. But thank you. There will
37:39
be retribution. I will be coming
37:41
for it. You can't believe I
37:44
lost. You know what I can't
37:46
believe? I can't believe that one
37:49
person in that booth side with
37:51
you. And I will find out
37:53
who you are. This is a
37:56
bullshit. I'm actually so pissed. All
37:58
right, folks. I don't
38:00
think he can continue with
38:03
the show honestly. I think
38:05
this might be it. Mr.
38:07
Tea Party over here. Okay.
38:09
It's a member of the
38:11
Colbert Report. It's a it's
38:14
a it's a visit. It's
38:16
a bit. I don't think
38:18
so. Well, there you have it.
38:20
A truly first of its
38:22
kind debate club. My pal
38:25
and enemy. Chris enemy
38:27
for sure. Chris Yang. I
38:29
guess I have to abide by those
38:31
laws, those laws that are
38:34
stacked against you because of
38:36
gerrymandering. We divvy up in
38:38
the production booth in this small
38:41
regions. You can't go wrong with
38:43
any of these salad dresses, but
38:45
let's be honest. Caesar is the
38:48
better. Okay, okay, okay, there's no
38:50
way to totalize it. We're gonna
38:53
take a break and we're getting
38:55
into a quick moy. All
38:59
right, Chang, I got two topics for
39:01
you in today's moeiff, my
39:03
opinion is fact. This isn't,
39:05
this is interesting, because
39:07
I never really, we haven't
39:09
talked about this before, I
39:12
don't think. Underrated or
39:14
overrated, the spork, the half spoon,
39:16
half fork. So, for the longest
39:19
time, I'm sure even in
39:21
interviews or like, the journalist
39:23
will say, what's your favorite
39:25
utensil, I'd be so like...
39:27
you know, cool and be
39:30
like less pork.
39:32
But I gotta say,
39:35
outside of pop
39:37
eyes, it should be
39:39
the utensil
39:42
for me. Right? It
39:44
is a hybrid spork
39:47
and spoon.
39:49
I actually don't
39:52
know. It's everything
39:55
about it. a distillation
39:57
of me as a person.
40:00
Right? Weirdly at the top?
40:02
Weird. Smooth at the bottom.
40:05
And like it's very utilitarian,
40:07
it's efficient, it's effective, it's
40:09
a hybrid. It's looked down
40:11
at, looked down upon. But
40:13
like, like when you go camping,
40:16
makes sense. I don't know
40:18
why it makes sense when you're
40:20
pop eyes, but it does, because you
40:22
need that for red beans and
40:24
rice. And even their dirty rice,
40:27
which is underrated and good.
40:30
So I can't tell you for the
40:32
life of me why I don't
40:34
use a spork. Why do you
40:36
not have a spork in your
40:38
drawer? Do you have a spork
40:41
in your drawer? Like a kid
40:43
one. I don't even have a
40:45
kid one. And I am ashamed
40:48
that I am embarrassed to admit
40:50
that I don't own a
40:52
spork. And I had to
40:54
ask myself, what is it about
40:56
a spork? Why? And it's
40:58
done on me. why I don't
41:00
like the spork. The reason
41:03
I don't like a spork
41:05
is because it looks
41:07
weird. When I look
41:09
at it, I'm just
41:11
like, there's something about it
41:14
that's weird. It's, it's, it's,
41:16
it's like, I don't, I
41:18
don't have anything that's a
41:21
platypus. You know, I
41:23
don't want to be
41:25
specious. But I'm like... What's
41:28
going on? What's going on?
41:31
Something's wrong with your spoon,
41:33
man! I was like, what
41:36
are you, duck or beaver?
41:38
What's going on, man? You
41:40
know? It's like, are we
41:43
in the awkward teen
41:45
phase of your evolution?
41:47
Like, what is going
41:49
on? And no disrespect
41:51
to all the platypuses
41:54
out there. I'm just
41:56
simply saying. I should
41:59
love I should be
42:01
making sports, for God's sake,
42:03
but I think my reason
42:06
why it is underrated, because
42:08
it has a visual platypus-like
42:11
effect. It is a chimera,
42:13
right? Half minitor, half man.
42:15
It's just, it doesn't make
42:18
any sense to people. And
42:20
like, let's be honest, we
42:23
talked about lying to oneself.
42:25
Is it as useful as
42:27
people think it is actually
42:30
useful? Is it actually useful?
42:32
Again, all the time I
42:35
use it is to dig
42:37
into red beans and rice.
42:39
And what do you use
42:42
the tines for just to
42:44
get a little piece of
42:47
meat? Yeah. And like, let's
42:49
be honest. We talked about
42:51
lying to oneself. I'll tell
42:54
you how I lie pop
42:56
eyes. I'll eat that coleslaw.
42:59
No I don't. No I
43:01
don't. Just like don't even
43:03
give it to me. I
43:06
won't eat the biscuit. Yes
43:08
I will. I don't need
43:11
the biscuit. Yes I do.
43:13
Get some vegetables in here.
43:15
Coleslaw. Wrong. All right another
43:18
topic. What do you think?
43:20
On the spork. Is
43:23
it weird that I'm like a
43:26
little bit afraid of a spork?
43:28
I'm trying to say the reason
43:30
why is the visual platypus like
43:33
effect. It is a culinary chimera
43:35
gone wrong. I think that Yoda
43:37
put it best. Like I'm a
43:40
little afraid of this thing and
43:42
fear leads to anger. But here's
43:45
the thing. Hey Chris, here's the
43:47
deal. Everything we want is on
43:49
the other side of fear. Red
43:52
beans and rice right over there.
43:54
They're all right there. I agree.
43:56
I'm a little afraid. Why we
43:59
should be fully embracing invested in
44:01
the sport. Have you? ever seen
44:03
a sport in a restaurant context
44:06
that wasn't a fast food restaurant?
44:08
No! You know why? Visually I
44:10
think it does too. I think
44:13
that's the only reason because you
44:15
can even make a sport where
44:17
the prongs are longer. But I
44:20
just... See I would be too
44:22
scared of that. I think people
44:25
just are freaked out. And I
44:27
do believe when I say the
44:29
platus of a platypus effect, it
44:32
is the same sort of Greek
44:34
mythology or... the chimer effect which
44:36
is like half animal half man
44:39
you know merger I think that
44:41
makes people like what's going on
44:43
yeah I mean at least like
44:46
the the tweezers that people are
44:48
the four steps that we made
44:50
the prediction will take over the
44:53
world in terms of how they
44:55
eat and make sense it looks
44:58
sleek yeah with a different name
45:00
it's one piece yeah yeah I
45:02
like the four steps thing I
45:05
forgot about that we should see
45:07
nobody says the platypus is their
45:09
favorite animal Are you a duck?
45:12
Are you a beaver? The fuck
45:14
are you? Be one thing. All
45:16
right. Is it... When is it
45:19
appropriate to be talking out loud
45:21
on your phone in public, if
45:23
ever? And where is it most
45:26
annoying to encounter other people doing
45:28
it? I'm glad you bring this
45:31
up. Because on my daily walks,
45:33
and you see who the people
45:35
are, right? Walking, you see the
45:38
same people, you see some people
45:40
that have headphones. Sometimes I forget
45:42
to wear my headphones in the
45:45
morning, because it's early and I
45:47
forget. But there's a couple people
45:49
that I walk past. One person
45:52
is talking extremely loud on speaker
45:54
phone. Yeah,
45:56
they have all the freedom
45:59
to do whatever we want,
46:01
but it is like the
46:03
noise pollution very aggressive it's
46:05
it's it's it's it's a
46:07
lot yeah and then there's
46:09
another person that listens to
46:11
their podcasts or whatever radio
46:13
they're listening full blast in
46:16
their like coat pocket no
46:18
headphones no headphones just playing
46:20
it out like a boom
46:22
box yeah so I will
46:24
do that sometimes when I
46:26
know nobody's Right? The apathy
46:28
to realize I should, oh
46:30
there's people coming up, they're
46:33
walking around, I'm gonna turn
46:35
it down, so I'm not
46:37
gonna, my noise pollution isn't
46:39
gonna invade their space. But
46:41
I think there's some people
46:43
that are like, I don't
46:45
give a fuck. I don't
46:47
understand the, I don't give
46:49
a fuck. I don't understand
46:52
the, I don't give a
46:54
fuck. I don't understand the,
46:56
I don't give a fuck,
46:58
of it all, nor do
47:00
I understand the speakerphone I
47:02
don't want to put this
47:04
thing next to my head.
47:06
I've never understood this. But
47:09
thinking about it, some more.
47:11
I think that maybe you
47:13
guys can, the audience will
47:15
agree with them. I think
47:17
there's one place in the
47:19
world where you see the
47:21
volume loud on your phone.
47:23
And it could be people
47:26
watching. like an Instagram or
47:28
TikTok clip, loud, and then
47:30
give fuck. It also could
47:32
be them talking to somebody
47:34
on the phone, very loudly.
47:36
I can't be the only
47:38
one that thinks this. It
47:40
takes place in this very
47:42
specific moment. It's the bus
47:45
that takes you from a
47:47
terminal to the gate. No,
47:49
really! It always happens! Like
47:51
clock- and you're like, what
47:53
the fuck? It's the bus
47:55
transfer. You know why? People
47:57
are bored, they don't want
47:59
to look at anybody else,
48:02
they're packed in their like
48:04
sardine cans, and like, they just
48:06
took their earbuds out or whatever, it's in their pocket, or maybe it's
48:08
in the bag, and now you're like sandwiched in, you're like, I don't
48:10
get that, or maybe by then their batteries are dead, they're like, whatever.
48:12
And then you got that awkward moment of. I don't know what I
48:14
don't know what I don't know what I don't know what I don't
48:16
know what I don't know, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, I don't know what
48:19
I don't know, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, I don't know what I
48:21
don't know what I don't know what I don't know, maybe, maybe, maybe,
48:23
maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, I don't know, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe, maybe,
48:25
that's talking to their significant other
48:27
or a family member like yeah
48:29
yeah yeah I'll be I did
48:32
this so they're organizing the travel
48:34
or they've just landed and
48:36
for whatever reason they're not
48:38
bringing the phone to their head
48:40
everyone can hear their conversation
48:43
and it's even the most annoying
48:45
on this moment is when it
48:47
is an empty bus and it's
48:49
those buses that are like taped
48:51
together when you don't know how
48:53
it works you know it means
48:55
It's like a caterpillar that wobbles.
48:57
An accordion that connects them, yeah. You
49:00
could be at the front, there's nobody
49:02
else in there, and then
49:04
there's somebody in the back, usually
49:06
with a kid, just full blast.
49:08
Just flipping through Tik Talks and
49:10
Instagrams, yeah. Ruins my day. Yeah,
49:12
it's the worst. It's 100% true.
49:14
I think it is for that
49:17
reason too, where it's like, I'm
49:19
conserving my headphone battery, I'm putting
49:21
it in a plane or whatever.
49:23
Rather than be like, I'm just not
49:25
going to have the volume up
49:27
right now. It's like, well, fuck it.
49:30
People know that it's such a transactional
49:32
experience. You'll never see. You're never there.
49:34
You're not going to be it. It
49:37
is almost always. It's never going
49:39
to the plane. It's disembarking on the
49:41
plane. Because you're like, I'm never
49:43
going to see these fucking people
49:45
again. So I'm going to act like
49:47
the worst person in the fucking world.
49:50
You know, yeah. The specific bus
49:52
transfer to the parking lot or
49:54
whatever. So you agree? Yeah. I'm
49:56
sure there's other moments in life,
49:58
but you know. I think it's
50:01
specifically that. Yeah, I've seen the
50:03
disembarking from a plane getting onto
50:05
a bus to the terminal. Because
50:07
no one's gonna do that. Nobody
50:09
has the balls to do that
50:11
from the terminal to the plane.
50:13
Right. Because what if I have
50:15
to sit next to this? Yeah.
50:17
What if we're getting off the
50:19
same airline? At least people, they
50:21
have the decency to just turn
50:23
that shit off. Yeah. But leaving
50:25
you're just like, I'll never see
50:27
this motherfucker again. I'm out of
50:29
this motherfucker. noise pollute in the
50:31
world and their preference of ranch
50:33
dressing people. We believe in efficiency.
50:35
Why get my headburns out? I
50:37
can more efficiently just listen. Listen,
50:39
we're going to get out of
50:41
here. Give us five stars. Just
50:43
join us on Spotify. Subscribe to
50:45
our YouTube channel. The Dave Chang
50:47
show at the Dave Chang show
50:49
and at the Dave Chang show
50:51
and at the what is it?
50:53
Resby Club official. You promised the
50:55
recipe though. I promised a recipe,
50:57
I'm going to give you a
50:59
recipe, because I know that we
51:01
talked about in the past, talking
51:03
about lavash and it's versatility. What
51:05
is lavash Christian? It is, and
51:07
I think it originally is like
51:09
a, specifically an Armenian flat bread,
51:11
but it is, you know, a,
51:13
the vessel you get to wrap
51:15
up grilled meats at, you know.
51:17
I'm beginning to think that is
51:19
the king of breads. It's so
51:21
versatile. So I don't know if
51:23
I gave you a proper recipe,
51:25
but if I did, I have
51:27
an improved recipe for a lavash
51:29
pizza. And the reason why this
51:31
is important is if you have
51:33
children, sometimes they want pizza and
51:35
they want something that's hot and
51:37
you have to make it and
51:39
you got to make it quick.
51:41
So I'll take a stainless-dew pan
51:43
or the pan from Kirkpatrick Forge,
51:46
right? It could be cast iron
51:48
as well. I'll get that heated
51:50
heated up. I'll take three big
51:52
pieces of lavash and I'll liberally
51:54
coat them with olive oil, right?
51:56
To the point where they're sort
51:58
of wet and if you want
52:00
to you can even use a
52:02
little water. to smash it in.
52:04
So you're trying to smash those
52:06
three, so you put one in
52:08
and then you put another layer.
52:10
So the entire sort of round
52:12
of the pan is now, it
52:14
almost looks like a bass cheesecake
52:16
with the parchment paper up. And
52:18
then you want to cover all
52:20
the sides and then you sort
52:22
of like push it towards the
52:24
edge of the pan. You can
52:26
use quite a bit of olive
52:28
olive olive oil because that's the
52:30
best thing to sort of soak
52:32
it. And then. on a on
52:34
a stovetop I heat it up
52:36
a little bit and while it's
52:38
heating up I put just a
52:40
thin layer of pizza sauce or
52:42
marinara from the can no from
52:44
the jar and then I put
52:46
mozzarella you know dry mozzarella I
52:48
haven't done it with fret like
52:50
wet mozzarella and then I'll take
52:52
some pepperoni the big things and
52:54
I'll just roll it up and
52:56
I'll dice it up and I'll
52:58
mix it in. Maybe I'll
53:00
put some dried oregano, whatever, but
53:03
olive oil, that's it, and some
53:05
Parmesan. I put that in like
53:07
a 425 degree oven and out
53:10
comes the best thin-cressed pizza you
53:12
can make. And because if you
53:14
arrange the layers of the wash
53:17
properly, if you cut it, it

is like becomes one. Like Voltron.
53:21
It's awesome, man. And some people,
53:23
I made it for, Hugo had
53:26
some friends over, their parents, and
53:28
I'm like, what? What is this
53:30
octomy? So it's like, you line
53:33
the pan with like olive oil
53:35
soaked lavash, it's kind of poking
53:37
out or on the sides, you
53:40
know, coming out of the pan
53:42
here and there, and then it's
53:44
just sauce, cheese, pepperoni, into the
53:46
oven. Yeah. And you want to
53:49
sort of tuck in. the edges,
53:51
right? You don't want it like
53:53
hanging out so much. So if
53:56
you want, you can fold over...
53:58
what's hanging and then like tuck
54:00
it in so it makes like
54:02
a proper like like pie crust
54:05
almost because if you you really want
54:07
to cook it on a high heat
54:09
because you want to get that shell
54:11
it gets so crispy if you don't
54:13
sort of tuck it in and you
54:15
get it to the crispy point that
54:17
I'm doing it will burn. So that's
54:19
why you want to talk in. Mm-hmm.
54:21
It's, it's, I've tried not this version,
54:23
but last time you talked about sort
54:25
of the lavash pizza I made it
54:27
and it is like, I feel like
54:29
people are obsessed with or this trending
54:31
is like the sort of tavern style
54:33
Chicago thin crust cracker thin pizza. Like
54:35
this is that but better I think. And
54:38
with that being said, thank you guys and
54:40
we don't know if there'll be a little
54:42
bit of a break or no break at
54:44
all, but we'll talk to you soon.
