KV: I know it sounds random. When she first said, “I’m going to do mayo and green curry,” I was like, “Okay, go with God, I guess.” But then, it doesn’t read as green curry paste necessarily. It reads as just aromatic and bright, because it’s combined with those creamier elements that offset… you’re not thinking when you’re eating it, “I am eating at a Thai restaurant.” You’re thinking, “This is just bright and buttery, and spicy.”
SU: And cheesy.
KV: It’s so good.
CM: Fun.
A: Yeah, I’m into that. That sounds good.
CM: Kendra, you’re the queen of snacks.
KV: I love a snack.
CM: Za’tar firecrackers?
KV: Yes.
A: Okay, wait. I love Kendra’s Za’tar firecrackers. I made them for a dinner party we had with our friends, and I was like, “I should make those for Thanksgiving.”
KV: They’re so good for Thanksgiving.
CM: Absolutely, you should.
KV: They’re obviously well suited for a make-ahead.
A: Yeah, that could be perfect, because I could soak them the night before then just bake them the day of. Perfect.
KV: They’re a really big hit. I made them for Thanksgiving a couple of years ago myself.
SU: They’re great.
A: I’m a Kendra fan.
KV: So happy to hear it.
CM: That’s awesome. Well, sorry you have to work this year, but hopefully, you’ll be able to bring home a special bottle.
A: Yeah, definitely. For sure. I’m excited. The palmiers sound so delicious, and cheesecake, do I need a spring form pan for the cheesecake?
KV: You do do need a spring form.
CM: But it’s no water bath. Its really simple. My gosh, as far as cheesecakes go, it’s a banger.
A: Awesome. I guess I’ll have to finally buy a spring form pan.
CM: Sorry.
A: That’s one of the only pans I don’t own. It’s okay. It seems like it’ll be worth it.
CM: It’ll be worth it.
A: Definitely.
CM: All right, thanks Ashley.
A: Thanks so much everybody.
CM: Good luck this year, okay? Thanks for calling in.
A: Thank you.
CM: We are going to take one more break.
KV: Wait, sorry. Guys, Ashley has already DM’d me on Instagram. She says, “Hi, it’s Ashley from dinner SOS Ordering a spring form pan right now for that cheesecake.”
And then I said, “Oh my God, can’t wait to see the finished product. Definitely send pics.”
She said, “Of course. My husband is in the booze industry, so once I said amaro whipped cream, he was all about it.”
SU: Oh, fun.
CM: Nice.
We’re going to take one more break. When we get back, we’re talking about arguably the most stressful part of Thanksgiving, carving the turkey.
Hi Lisa.
Lisa: Hello Chris.
CM: Where are you calling from?
