"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enin this episode of the cooking show faraday eats popcorn cheesy poppy good now the rest of this episode i'm gonna have like my teeth we're in the auntie says kitchen and we're making banana pudding pie banana cream pie whatever you like to call it we're gonna make this not in a pie dish we're gonna make it in a springform pan so if you've seen it before in other episodes it's coming back we're gonna make a really delicious crust we're also gonna make a custard and we're making whipped cream and then we're gonna put them all together into a pie so first things first we're gonna make our crust i'm gonna put some parchment paper in the bottom of my springform pan so i'm gonna just melt some butter first things first i think it's like a stick of butter let me grab this i should have set this up before gosh now see this is pretty much melted i don't want to be like foamy and like crazy just gonna take it off the heat okay we have our walnuts three quarters of a cup or so i'm gonna toast them the whole thing about this recipe is that it's a no-bake recipe we're not baking our crust but we're just gonna toast it in a skillet we're gonna put it on medium heat you're just gonna toast it lightly on there but until you kind of you can kind of smell it get a little bit nuttier should i make my custard should i go for it yes peter says okay i'm gonna whisk my eggs so five egg yolks i don't even like bananas that much i don't like banana flavored things i don't do a lot of pastry stuff but i was like you know what people want some pastries i know they do into here we're also going to put our sugar to thicken my custard i'm also going to add in corn starch so you could make a slurry with this on the side i could hold back some of the milk and mix it with this to make a slurry i'm gonna do that to show you i'm gonna do it we're gonna do that okay for our little slurry i'm gonna put some of the milk into here and you'll see you guys gotta whisk this together it's real weird like cornstarch is weird because like if you make this and like forget about it for 10 minutes re-whisk it before you add it because it like hardens up again at the bottom it's almost it's like a weird like concretiness to it i don't know does that make sense i don't even know if it does but if you know you know and now you know i'm gonna mix this together and then this milk i'm gonna slowly pour into here i'm adding this in slowly and whisking it so i don't get lumps there either heat's on medium medium medium low okay this is heating up nicely i'm going to slowly drizzle it all in so it's gonna keep on whisking it because you don't want this to burn because as it thickens it's gonna like look it's literally like instant thick okay look look how thick that got so fast okay so i'm going to remove it from the heat i'm going to add in four tablespoons until the butter i always cook with unsalted butter you guys should too i'm gonna tell you why when you cook with unsalted butter it allows you to season it the way you want it to okay so i'm gonna add the butter in little knobs of it like this you can put it in a few at a time let it melt before you add in too much and the butter is just going to help make it really like luxurious and smooth and a little bit of vanilla into here i think it's one or two teaspoons right on in i'm gonna save the rest that's gonna go with my whipped cream and this makes about two and a half cups of custard let it cool slightly cover it with some cling film right on the surface because if you don't cover it with a cling film around the surface it kind of tends to form a bit of a skin it sounds so gross and it is you don't want a skin deform and let it cool completely before we do anything else with it okay seven ounces because seven ounces that's going to be going into my filling and on the as garnish on top of the pie afterwards so that's about the box of nilla wafers is you can't see this branding but it is 11 ounces so about 12. it's 12 divided by 7 divided by 4 11. what wait wait why can i do the math in my head right now i don't know leave me alone okay listen you're putting about two-thirds yeah two-thirds that's what i was going for oh two-thirds of it if you don't have a scale we're going into here and then you're saving about a third of the vanilla wafers for the inside filling of the pie and some of it's gonna be garnish we're gonna pulse this i think there's about a half a teaspoon of kosher salt right in there one stick of melted butter and mix that all together just with our little fingers there see how i just did that that helps to use up all that butter just gonna soak it in that's a little tip for you that was free next one i'm charging mixer we're gonna push this in the bottoms up almost up the entire sides of the springform pan this is fun i know it's like weird i'm like really enjoying myself right now i'm kind of like in a going into a zen state now that's what happens when i bake a little bit it's kind of just relaxing okay this looks good now this is going to go into the refrigerator you could put it into actually just stop take a look at this it does look good right it's pretty even it tastes good just like that that's so good it's gonna go in the fridge just for a little bit while i whip the cream so we've got one cup of cream right on into our bowl heavy cream we're gonna put the rest of our vanilla in there about a quarter cup confectioners sugar until thick all right this is looking good done and now i can just cut the bananas we can assemble this can go in the refrigerator too okay look at that beautiful so you can slice this however you want i'm going to say a slight bias about a quarter inch thick i kind of do like banana i changed my mind this is good i like i do like bananas i'm a liar i like bananas the more i think about i like bananas and cereal we're gonna put bananas the one thing about this is hard
