Delicious; Mr. Food Wishes!👆
docking is not less offensive than pricking lmao the internet has rotted my brain
Chief – John
my hero!
👍🏼
In Australia we called powdered sugar = pure icing sugar…lol
Love the video but I got a mild depression when he didn't repeat "around the ouside" twice after saying it.
Your voice is perfect for voice overs…I'm definitely going to try this recipe
Chef; it's impossible to screw up!
Me; uhh.. um. I. I think I burnt mine..
Today I made grapefruit bars following this recipe. They were delicious, but needed a bit more tartness. When I do it again I might use 1TBS of lemon juice to replace that much grapefruit….or a 1/4tsp of vitamin C crystals. I wouldn't want to mess with the juice:sugar ratio which was just right!
HE TALKS TOO MUCH… VERY ANNOYING.
My shortbread weren't crispy anymore when it decided to float to the top 😂😂😂
For you are after all the czars of your lemon bars.
hello cheff john!!! thank you so much for all these amazing recipies!!! I am sure you have fans all over the world…I come from Argentina and I sometimes have problems with the measures. for esample here we have two sizes of butter sticks 100 and 200 grams….which one is it? thanks again!
YOU ARE A GENIUS!!!! THIS SOOOOOOOO GOOD!!!! I know you said you can't mess up but I did. The dough wasn't enough to spread so I made another batch (which was cool with me) and baked it for 40 minutes instead of 22. (I did 40 instead of 44 because I didn't want to over bake it) I followed everything else. I love it!! Thank you.
Can I use limes instead
Chef John: "…virtually impossible to screw up…"
Me: screws up both the crust and the filling "Well then…"
one of the cool things about this is no hand mixer, or stand mixer, or blender, or food processor. simple but good.
What??!!?? No cayenne???
Mine are sitting in the fridge overnight right now! I didn’t have the kewl pastry blowtorch though, so I had to use a bbq lighter…my fingers hurt from holding it down lol
Doooooode!!! Add blueberries!!
These we a great hit at my place.
Disappointed he didn't do it the traditional way and cut them around the outside… Around the outside, around the outside
Welp, I'm making these tonight. I was looking for something that would be nice served cold and these looked perfect. Hopefully the people at tea tomorrow will like them.
How much butter
Where is the number of ingredients.?
Amazing eazy and gooood
I’ve been making these lemon bars for the past five years. I’ve also switched out the lemon for lime and used just the crust recipe to make cookies! My family really loves them every time.
these lemon bars are awesome & at least one definition of docking may be considered MORE offensive than pricking lol
My only recommendation to improve this is to strain the lemon custard before mixing in the zest and pouring it over the crust, it gets rid of those little white bits attached to the egg yolks and almost everything else that won't emulsify properly and makes the texture extra creamy, I do it whenever I make Krusteaz Meyer lemon bar mix and it works very well for those.
ahahahahahahaha — Good Job — Using a ziplock bag as an icer — sounds like something my redneck self would do — ahahahaha – but HEY – what would need to be done to add an amount of graham cracker to the dough – and the juice of another lemon – so I don't have to experiment so many times – I always need a little more – in my pucker — hehehehehe
I like getting a glimpse of you in the bowl Chef John! 🌞 I have learned so much since recently discovering your videos. You're a great teacher and have really boosted my confidence with your comedic guidance. Thank you so much.
Love it!
Hi chef john! Can we put this in the refrigerator before cutting into squares? Will it be easier to slice?
I made these today, hand mixing egg white sucks 🙂 ! They are so delicious it was worth the carpel tunnel 🙂
Tried them. WOW… turned out great. I did not add zest because my fresh lemon juice was pulpy (I know, different taste signatures, but that was my reasoning). I only had a 9×9 pan, they were a bit thinner but in a good way. Did not do the meringue. Wish I would have baked them a few minutes longer. These are excellent.
My mom used to make these all the time! Gonna make some this weekend now!
Coloque as receitas em inglês para poder me escrever obrigado
Alright, so where's the meringue?
Nvm. Watched the rest of the video
I have been making these for years. Everyone loves them, of course I have to always have to double it up.
Chef ur the best always adding a twist ❤
Looks very good , but can you substitute the butter for margarin , because that’s a lot of butter and it is bad for the heart & cholesterol. 😊
I started using this as pie crust In all my pies ❤❤❤❤🎉
My wife's ultimate favorite treat!!
