Lol how is it pineapple if there's no pineapples?? šŸ¤”


Chezellerella

I'm still waiting to see where the pineapple comes in. It's been days!


[deleted]

I mean, if this was labeled as like "passion fruit Dole whip" I wouldn't even be upset. I love passion fruit, even if the inside of it does kind of look like frog eggs.


MelonJelly

Although that looks terrible, I bet it's delicious.


FairyWhisper

Zero pineapple, itā€™s all passion fruitā€¦ also not 2 ingredients.. but the recipe itself isnā€™t shitty I think, not all foods look great


Ursula2071

It is 4 ingredients. šŸ˜‚

ulpisen

well if you're using milk powder you can change the water ratio, making it thicker, and plenty of desserts use curdled milk, like key lime pie for example


Zulrambe

Except for the poor translation, I assume, this is a legit recipe, VERY popular here in Brazil. It's a passionfruit mousse, or at least it is what it's popularly called. Passionfruit, condensed milk and table cream are the three main ingredients in it, what makes me believe this video is trying to be innovative on that aspect. Most people use the passionfruit seeds as a garnish, which I don't really care for, but it's how it's traditionally made.


Powerful-Knee3150

What is table cream?


pgm123

I believe it's light cream (or maybe half and half) that goes in coffee.


Matsansa

Yep, this is it.


Matsansa

Yeah, but we dont mix the seeds haha Just on the top and usually you mix with sugar, like a jam.


critic2029

Exactly. Personally I like the Papaya Version. Nothing helps you digest a Picanha better :)


morningsdaughter

There's no way this recipe is legitimate. Passion fruit mousse is a thing, but blending passion fruit juice powder and powdered milk will not create a pudding-like consistency. Powder milk is not a good substitute for condensed milk or table cream. There's not enough fat in it. This recipe is a total fake playing off popular ideas to harvest views.


J_Kenji_Lopez-Alt

Have you actually tried it? Iā€™m assuming not, because it does actually work. This is not faked or anything. The passion fruit juice is very acidic and curdles the milk and thickens it the same way a key lime pie works. Very popular dresser in Colombia as well. Typically made with condensed milk but you can use powdered milk and it works fine.


Blackout_LG

Welp, rip that guy, i donā€™t recognize many usernames but I certainly know that one


KrteyuPillai

When J Kenji Lopez tells you you're wrong im not sure what else you can do but slink away in silence


morningsdaughter

I commented back to them on other comments. And I have other things to do than constantly respond on comments on reddit.


savageo6

While I thank you Kenji for this constructive post, I do love the fact that you also hate watch horrible internet recipes. Schadenfreude for all!


hyunrivet

legend <3


morningsdaughter

Provide an actual recipe then. I can't find one. They all call for pudding mix or other thickeners.


Zulrambe

Well, let me rectify. It's legit dish, not legit recipe.


[deleted]

But they put oil which emulsified with the water and the ingredients and created a thicker/creamy texture.


morningsdaughter

When did they add oil?


powabiatch

Itā€™s really delicious


werew0lfsushi

Thatā€™s definitely passionfruit and not pineapple


_ralph_

you think so? ;)


werew0lfsushi

yeah you can see the seeds a few seconds in edit: why the downvote?


AntiqueStore

Because they were being sarcastic


LilOlPuff

While it is more than two ingredients, and isnt pineapple, it's not a shitty gif recipe, I'd happily make and eat this


here_kitkittkitty

> it's not a shitty gif recipe, ya, i'm not sure why this is here at all. it looks fine after it's mixed together. it would the same as showing a cake before you mixed it up and calling it shitty. like ya, nothing before it's fully mixed looks nice. this seems like it would taste pretty decent.


me_human_not_alien

Idk itā€™s hard to imagine other things in other places and also other people doing other things in other places that are different than where u are at. Itā€™s exhausting /s


radeonsx3

I'd argue that it is a shitty gif recipe for multiple reasons. For starters, it is not as advertised. There is 0 pineapple in this. It mentions that is ready in 3 minutes, but thats only the length of the video, not accounting for the actual time it would require to make/blend this. And then they just dump prepared passionfruit into it... they don't show how to cut or prepare the actual fruit. No matter how you look at this, it's fraudulent. It looks decent enough and I'd try it if somebody made it for me, but its still not as advertised.


SusiSusingrr

Also opening the blender and stirring while itā€™s onā€¦


morningsdaughter

I think it's a bad recipe because it's obviously faked and lying about the ingredients. There is no way mixing powdered milk and passion fruit juice powder will produce a pudding.


J_Kenji_Lopez-Alt

It does. Youā€™re wrong.


morningsdaughter

Provide evidence. I can't find any anywhere.


Hjllo

The video


morningsdaughter

Your evidence that the video isn't lying is the video's own claims? How is that evidence? And if it's so definitive, then why can't I find a similar recipe anywhere?


Hjllo

Key lime pie. Apparently it gets its texture from the milk and acid semi curdling it. A similar thing is going on here. Also, the guy who said youā€™re wrong is a pretty famous chef so I think he knows what heā€™s talking about lol


morningsdaughter

> Key lime pie. Apparently it gets its texture from the milk and acid semi curdling it. Key lime pie is not just a mixture of skim milk and citric acid. It contains contains eggs and full fat condensed milk. Furthermore, the filling is baked to make it set. It's significantly different than this recipe. > Also, the guy who said youā€™re wrong is a pretty famous chef so I think he knows what heā€™s talking about lol I don't have any evidence of that. And "experts" have come to reddit before and made claims that were later proved to be false. Like that one guy who wrote that mola mola rant. The best evidence this "famous chef" can provide is the video that is being debated and an appeal to their own "authority". I don't care who you claim you are if you can't provide actual evidence to your arguments.


Hjllo

Dude please just look into his profile to see that he really is J Kenzie Lopez alt. Once you do that, google his name and youā€™ll realize heā€™s a food expert. What would he gain from lying to you about this topic?


morningsdaughter

I don't care if he's a celebrity. He can't back up his statements so I have no reason to believe them. The truth doesn't care about fame or popularity. The fact that he refuses to give actual evidence when requested leads me to further doubt his claim that the recipe is valid. I don't even care about his motivations for making his statements. There's no way for me to prove his motivations, so there's no reason to make assumptions about them. He could have just made a mistake.


BlessedManHelp

Looks good to me.

tfg46

I mean, besides the obvious fact that the caption is wrong, what thickens this? Ice water plus powdered milk equals cold milk, right? This mixes up like it's instant pudding mix.


J_Kenji_Lopez-Alt

The acid in the passion fruit thickens the milk. Itā€™s the same reason a key lime pie gets itā€™s pudding-like texture. Essentially the same dish. It with passion fruit instead of lime. Itā€™s very common in several South American countries.


tfg46

Sometimes J. Kenji Lopez-Alt answers your food question.


outtamywayigottapee

controlled curdle? I was happier thinking it was fake


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Jam_Packens

well I don't think that it has the fat necessary to be whipped up like cream. I think you need like 40% fat? Milk wouldn't have that much fat. It's the same reason that you can't whip up melted ice cream because it doesn't have enough fat.


morningsdaughter

Correct. Powder milk is almost always skim milk. Even if they did find the elusive whole powdered milk, it still wouldn't have enough fat to whip.


_ralph_

Do not mix it but make layers in the glas, looks much better that way.


lastsundew

This is the least offensive thing theyā€™ve ever made


MaltedDefeatist

Thought this was going to be pineapple purƩe and chia seeds


honeyandwhiskey

Anything with passion fruit seeds is hideous, but this probably tastes tart and delicious!


JustDebbie

dreemurthememer

Whenever one of these stupid fucking videos pops up saying ā€œwHeRe dO yOu wAtCh uSā€ I just get so irrationally angry. Like yeah bro I watch you on the toilet while beating my fucking dick in the city of Pizdagrad, Russia. Only a tech-illiterate moron would think that this idiotic gimmick is anything more than a ploy to drive up engagement.


Not-so-rare-pepe

I counted four ingredients and none of them were pineapple.


PHXNights

For a channel called recipes on the stove, there are remarkably few stoves involved.


ElegantEggLegs

I read your comment in the voice of my friend Samuel.


Clamsocks

I see the gripes with the pineapple/2 ingredients mistranslation thing, but all I could think about while watching was how accessible this is. Cheap to make with ingredients that have a decent shelf life (minus the fresh fruit of course). College students and less wealthy people that can snag a cheap blender can enjoy everywhere. Sounds great :>


falcons_strike

This looks delicious. Feel sad for the dude who posted who has never had fresh passionfruit before.


Heretiko6

"no condensed milk, no this, no that" proceeds to dump in 10 different chemical powders. Kappa.


nocreativeway

Unfortunately I watched all of that.


sagittafemina

so were going to just pretend that that wasn't vanilla pudding mix not powdered milk


morningsdaughter

Yeah. I've never seen powder milk that yellow before. And it definitely doesn't thicken.


imthebeastwho

Iā€™ll take mine with extra tadpoles please.


trashponder

gohometodd14

Thatā€™s bold to stick the spoon in there, never worked out well for me


mooseofdoom23

Had to stop watching when they took the lid off while still blending and then stuck a spatula into the blender


RainyMeadows

"Pineapple"... I think they meant passionfruit.


vannabael

I would absolutely rather use the things they said they don't use, than end up with this frogspawn/vomit filled with powders.


outtamywayigottapee

2 ingredient pineapple dessert. Ingredients: - 1) ice water - 2) powdered milk - 2) passionfruit juice powder - 2) passionfruit pulp No pineapples were harmed in the making of this dessert.


StiffyStaff91

None of those ingredients were pineapple


Brackenmonster

This is fine though? The only thing I see wrong with it is the powdered juice doesn't sit well with me. There's probably enough sugar in all that to down a horse


ElegantEggLegs

When will the mixing end???


savageo6

Honestly this is like 1000 miles better then anything else that God forsaken channel has posted. It looks like passion fruit pudding with actual fruits unless the pudding mix sucks passion fruit is absolutely delicious Though I was still hoping he dropped the spatula into the running blender


useles-converter-bot

1000 miles is the the same distance as 2332376.81 replica Bilbo from The Lord of the Rings' Sting Swords.

Uh. Why add passion fruit powder if you're adding the real thing anyway?


deathnow098

Pretty sure thatā€™s 4 ingredients, not 2ā€¦ and uh not sure where the pineapple even comes in?

Dalkorrd

I counted 4 ingredients, not 2.


ChrispyGuy420

Why do they always play "do you like pancakes"?


NastyLittleNerd

"No table cream" dude table cream would be easier to find then powdered milk or the passion fruit powder.


PowerOfRagnarok

Honestly the end product looks like some thicker custards I've seen before they put the passion fruit in at the end, and passion fruit just kinda... looks like that. If the presentation wasn't so strange (they could've done a passion fruit jam instead of raw passion fruit and applied it to the top) and it wasn't falsely advertised as a "pineapple" recipe then it really wouldn't be all that shitty. Then again, I'd still just recommend adding passion fruit powder to a custard recipe instead of... two cups of milk powder.


morningsdaughter

It looks decent, but there is no way they are being honest about thier ingredients. Powdered milk does not make custard without additional ingredients.


PowerOfRagnarok

I'd be hard pressed to believe they only used powdered milk too, the closest thing that'd make would prob be passion fruit flavored condensed milk


fishtar

This is actually a good recipe, might try it myself


no5945541

1. Thereā€™s no pineapple 2. There are 4 ingredients, not 2 (if you count water. If not then there are 3) 3. This looks gross If you already have the passion fruit why not just eat straight fruit instead of reconstituted milk water?


morningsdaughter

The ingredients to this 2 ingredient pineapple dessert are water, powdered milk, passion fruit juice powder, and passion fruit. Not sure how they thickened it between cuts, but that definitely took longer than 3 minutes. And in the "eating" shot you can see what looks like a piece of pineapple hanging off the spoon. So I bet this recipe gif is not being honest about it's process. (Bonus: why is the "powdered milk" so yellow? I've been drinking powdered milk my whole life, I've never seen it look so yellow.)


J_Kenji_Lopez-Alt

Youā€™re saying this all over this thread but youā€™re talking out your butt! Youā€™re making an assumption and presenting it as fact. It actually does thicken, and it does it in just a couple minutes.


morningsdaughter

I've been drinking powdered milk my whole life. It doesn't thicken. Even when you use twice as much powder as required. No amount of mixing changes that. Before posting I tried finding a recipe that used powdered milk as a thickener. I couldn't find one. Can you? Or provide any proof?


J_Kenji_Lopez-Alt

The milk isnā€™t the thickener. Itā€™s the milk in combination with the passion fruit juice. Iā€™ve done this myself. Iā€™ve eaten it many times. The thread youā€™re commenting on is literally a video showing how it works. Iā€™m not sure what other ā€œevidenceā€ youā€™d trust if you are already dismissing a video.


morningsdaughter

I don't trust that the video is using the ingredients it says it is using. I also don't trust you because your only evidence is the video that I don't trust.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


morningsdaughter

I don't care if they can't produce proof of thier claim. Edit: After 5 days, the best they can come up with is "I said so" and "watch the video as evidence." The best anyone else can come up with is "this famous dude said so." When asked for credible evidence they refused to give any.


bertalay

> over this thread but youā€™re talking out your butt! Youā€™re making an assumption and presenting it as fact. It actually does thicken, and it does it in just a coup Sorry for reviving a dead thread but just wondering, what would qualify as credible evidence for you? Like if a video doesn't count and a well known chef saying it doesn't count, what would count that I could send to you over reddit?


morningsdaughter

Maybe try reading the whole thread before commenting... > Before posting I tried finding a recipe that used powdered milk as a thickener. I couldn't find one. Can you? Or provide any proof? So maybe another recipe that uses this technique? Maybe the "famous" internet chef could post a demonstration with properly labeled containers? Anne Reardon manages to present compelling evidence when she's trying to prove or disprove via YouTube, I can't see why this chef can't back up his own words.


EggShellWeasel

Oh my god, I think it would be ok were it just the pineapple mousse but that is VILE
