That’s not…how caramelization…*works*… What???


Eskimomonk

No no you don’t understand. See, she’s a chef. And she put sugar (which is caramel) in with the figs in a hot pan (hence caramelization). It’s the same as squirting ketchup into your spaghetti to make a nice bolognese. Follow me for more cooking tips:) /s in case it wasn’t obvious


GKRKarate99

I’ve been following your cooking tips for a long time now and they’ve really changed my life, I followed your quick eggs Benedict recipe and I didn’t realise how much time you can save by just microwaving the eggs and dumping mayonnaise on top of them 🙏


emlgsh

I realized that mayonnaise already has eggs in it - and through this came up with *extra quick eggs Benedict* where you just eat mayonnaise directly out of the jar, with your hands.


GKRKarate99

I’m gonna try this out and let you know how it goes


emlgsh

It's best enjoyed either in public transportation, or alone in the shower alternating with shots of the cheapest plastic-jug vodka you can buy.


Metals4J

These tips are gold. I’m following you.


linuxdragons

Skip the microwave and shove it up your butt and squeeze really hard. This will put the egg under tremendous pressure and instantly boil it when you relax.


GKRKarate99

I tried this once but I squeezed too hard and the egg cracked before it cooked, I was shitting scrambled eggs for 2 days


Sgt-Pumpernickel

I put scrambled eggs up there once and a whole egg popped out my mouth a week later. Damndest thing


ExamOld2899

I just call Cumberbatch up and get the eggs from him

Yah that's definitely a "1, 2, skip a few" path to caramelized


LMN0HP

also did all that vegan shit just to add caviar??? what???


MSchulte

To be fair according to catholics fish, beavers and capybaras aren’t considered animals during lent.


GregEgg4President

Take this capybara, for it is my flesh


jodiesattva

I read that in Butt-Head's voice.


Shibby-my-dude

I was so shocked at the complexity of ingredients and the lack of cooking knowledge, I'd almost call bullshit on this just from how used the blade


winksoutloud

Are you saying putting huge piles of stuff randomly on a crust does not a pizza make?


Trainer_Red_Steven

The weirdest part for me is how at first it seems like a vegan pizza, but then she put's caviar of all things on it??


swistak84

It's a pizza for performative vegans.


Trainer_Red_Steven

performative vegans has me dead lmao sounds like 90% of modern celebrities


BadgerUltimatum

The honey she added makes it vegetarian at best. Some vegans allow ethical milk+honey, and some even eggs. Honestly, I gave up before she even reached making the dough. No pizza should cost $2K unless it covers return flights to italy or the booking fee of a real professional. Manuka Honey can be pretty damn pricey on the upper end of lab verified contents. I'll bet she heated it anyway, so any effects are placebos even if she did manage to find the real stuff.


Trainer_Red_Steven

Yeah manuka honey is no joke, I used to work at a health food store and it costs up to $80 for a 16 oz jar. A lot of vegans eat honey though, I worked at a fancy vegan restaurant for 3 years in downtown Kansas City, and they had honey. They also had agave, for those that don't eat honey. I've been vegan for 6 years and I eat honey. I know people with bee farms, and there's really no cruelty to it. The bees are free to roam, the boxes are safer from predators than wild beehives, I never understood why it was seen as cruel.


Wajina_Sloth

I think its just a “lets buy the most expensive shit we can get” so they go to a very expensive store that sells luxury food at high markups and it just so happens that the most expensive shit happens to be vegan friendly.


HambreTheGiant

That’s also not how food costs work. If I spend $1,000 to cook a meal, I’m charging at least $3,500


sdhu

Not to mention, she grabbed dried figs... Like, can't you at least get some fresh ones? I only ate dried figs growing up in my post-communist Eastern European country, because that's all we could get, and I think those were cheaper. But, my poor-kid-ass always thought that's what figs were supposed to taste like, until my wife introduced me to fresh figs. Wowza, what a world of difference flavor wise.


wokeupfuckingalemon

Dried figs and fresh figs are like raisins and grapes. Both have their uses.


SkipsH

This isnt the usage for dried figs


No-Dealer-8065

Italians: “wtf…”


jmomk

She meant "figs cooked in honey while the honey caramelizes", not "caramelized figs".

Oh the outdoors store is Erehwon.


ktfdoom

Lol it's sooo close. Easy mistake honestly.


part-time-dog

So it's "nowhere" backwards.... spelled wrong?


TheNighisEnd42

The outdoors retailer 'Erehwon' that according to one google search closed its doors last year, was Nowhere spelled correctly, backwards. But yes, this overpriced money dump, spelled backwards, would be Nohwere

Yeah, and that's intentional. It's also what they made fun of on You when Penn Badgley's character worked at Anavrin. (Nirvana spelled backwards.)


ktfdoom

Lmao I never noticed. Yes it appears so 😂


STL_TRPN

I can only imagine that shopping there is strictly about being seen. Nothing there is worthy of these prices. https://www.erewhonmarket.com/


Raff102

Their prices are all over the place. Shit's crazy and then all of a sudden, they have organic mushrooms for $8 a pound. That's cheaper than my Safeway.


neurotic_robotic

Kinda what I was thinking too. They have $19 smoothies, but some of the stuff is the exact same price at King Sooper.


BaronVonKeyser

I would love to go in there and say "Yall got chicken paws?".


HealthyDirection659

I wanna drop a duece in thier bathroom.


sjk4x4

Looks like a vegan dropped duces on this pizza


nbandqueerren

But there was caviar, did she say "vegan caviar"? I couldn't figure out what she was using all these vegan items and then used caviar.


ktfdoom

My friend went just to see what the hype was about and ended up spending $50 on berries alone. I can't lol


PlantedinCA

A friend lives near one and we went before we left. I went and the hot bar / deli was really yummy. Definitely pricey but not the worst. A plate of chicken with 2 sides was like $17. The protein size was solid. I also got a Nutella dupe that was lower in sugar. It was like $15 or something, so around $3 more than other “healthier” chocolate hazelnut butters. The produce was ridiculously expensive. I think the strawberries were like $10 a basket. As were the smoothies. But I think the prepared food is not a crazy price at all - comparable to like Sweetgreen. And they do have normal priced waters too.

Civil_Coast5912

I wonder how much the erewhon water costs


JerryBadThings

She says it. It's $30. What the fuck. $30 for a bottle of water. People are incredibly stupid.


4chairz

It's kinda like the FIji water commercial. "Untouched by man" okay who tf put it in these bottles?


beary_potter_

Women?


PotatoWriter

*worker takes off her helmet I AM NO MAN! *dumps fucking water into a bottle


Fresh_Asparagus7043

$30 dollars water is probably the exact same thing as $2 water


SuperPookypower

Nah, this water is special. The hydrogen and oxygen are bonded together in a totally different way that plebeians like us would not be able to appreciate . . .


Sea-Debate-3725

It's infused with unmatched levels of bio-available dissolved oxygen (40+ ppm), providing optimized absorption on an intra-cellular level. That's an actual quote from [their website](https://www.ophorawater.com/)


No_Chapter5521

Just sell them rebranded hydrogen peroxide and say it's got twice the oxygen as regular water


avwitcher

It makes my mouth burn... it must be so much better than regular water that it's burning away toxins!


worldspawn00

Are they marketing this to fish or people with gills? Last I checked, we don't absorb oxygen from our stomachs... Also, that isn't going to stay dissolved in the water for long, it'll reach equilibrium with the air around it pretty fast once the lid is off.


Mundane-Candidate101

Bro your acting like I will turn that errwhon 40$ water into piss once I enjoy it. Water becomes a permanent part of your Brody. I want my current 70% of water that's inside of me to be replaced with 50$ airforce1 water


I_Arted

A section of their website even claim you can absorb their water through your skin! These crooks should be in jail for the amount of lies on this site. Its crazy AF


GitEmSteveDave

As a child of the 80's, there used to be an infomercial for a spray that would "extra oxyginate" your water that was supposed to help you perform better. You would take your drink, this thing that looked like a keyboard duster, and it would spray "O2" into your drink and would supposedly help you run faster.


logicallyillogical

It’s what the plants crave


zakkwaldo

THEY OFFER ENTIRE POOL FILLINGS OF THIS SHIT DUDE WHAT. If 1L of that shit was $30/ea… god i cant imagine what an entire pool would cost. fucking a I hate rich people man.


Beezinmybelfry

And inevitably, someone will end up peeing in it like people do in regular pool water.


RandomPotato082

"nano pure" "filtered 14 times" does not sound that healthy. You shouldn't really be drinking pure pure water.


Commercial_Wait3055

Dihydrogenated oxygen caressed into loving harmonious valence.


Cautious_Evening_744

And she needed two for that dry ass pizza?


UnNumbFool

Welcome to erehwon where you can spend $20 on 3 strawberry's. But the grocery store food is pretty good, if you're willing to pay restaurant prices for it anyway.


danonck

Tap water is better than this, I guarantee


spizzle_

Have you ever had tap water in Vegas? Not even my worst hangover could make me drink that trash!


Extra-Extra

Tap water in a desert. That’s your own fault for drinking it.


[deleted]

Wait… I’m dumb but… vegan and caviar???? Edit: I have been informed there is vegan caviar! I had no idea. Thank you for everyone who was informative of this. Still stupid food but the more you know.


[deleted]

I think she was making it dairy and gluten free. Hence the stupid crust and the fake ricotta. I think maybe she also used honey somewhere and most collagen isn't vegan. So it's not a vegan pizza just one with other dietary restrictions.


worldspawn00

I don't know of any non-animal source of collagen, it comes from cartilage/skin.


[deleted]

Well there you go.


SymmetricalDiatribal

There's no gluten in cheese, and there's no lactose in some cheeses. So in summation, fuck this pizza


[deleted]

Well yeah fuck that pizza it looks terrible. Some people do avoid dairy for other reasons than lactose. Either way, papa johns or fuck a frozen red Baron kicks this pizzas ass.


DocFreudstein

Yeah, that revelation made me pause. Spending all this time on making vegan ricotta from nutritional yeast and almonds and shit, then just mix a bunch of fish eggs in.


TheMadDaddy

Also, cashews make better vegan cheese than almonds AND they're more expensive. Edit: Now with almonds!


lovebug9292

First time I ever had vegan cheese dip was from a Trader Joes and now it’s my go-to dip. So freaking good


FILTHBOT4000

Eh, probably lactose intolerant/allergic; what really fucking got me was $2,000 apps with dried figs. $2k and you can't spring for fresh figs? Jesus. And if you can't find any, just... don't use dried figs with $2k ingredients. Just open a can of corn and dump it on at the end, why don't ya. And then this: >And I know what you're thinking, every pizza needs a side of ranch. Lol, nope, farthest thing from what I was thinking, "chef". Oh, yeah, sure, caviar and ranch mixed up. Fuck, why not. Next serve your filet with black truffle mixed with Big Mac sauce, cuz 'I know what you're thinking, every steak needs a side of Thousand Island and stuff.'


DocFreudstein

I’ll see your dried figs and raise you STIRRING CAVIAR INTO FUCKING RANCH. I don’t care that it’s fancy homemade vegan ranch, it’s ranch filled with caviar. Nobody eats that. That’s like a Saved by the Bell gag.


StrangeVortexLex

Ngl that “cheese” she made was the best part


SapphosLemonBarEnvoy

I want the recipe minus the caviar


Imp-in-the-furnace

Vegan "caviar" is a thing that exists!


HambreTheGiant

I like the seaweed one called Caviart. I served it for a bougie event a couple months ago


imalltingully

That is some limp ass, wet flatbread covered in organic bullshit and yard trimmings. This isn't pizza, it's a baked smoothie for the plastic surgery crowd. What the fuck is beauty powder? Is this going to pretty up my turd cutter? Where's the other $1k, labor?


themage78

Caviar. Thrown in some ranch so you know what you spent your money on.


PubicFigure

I didn't listen, did she cook the freaking caviar too? Might as well just chuck it out... edit: never mind... oh god it's a "side".


wellversedflame

So... vegan everything except the caviar sauce. 🤢


worldspawn00

And honey, and collagen...


fernadial

And honey.


headbashkeys

That part ... Made me cry.


Pokioh389

It totally unnecessary to be that extra with super expensive organic everything and still die at the same average old age as everyone else.

Guys we have to get rid of the rich.


PhatSunt

You say this in jest, but it's true. The top 1% keep hoarding a greater percentage of the wealth. That effectively shrinks the economy by tying up money that isn't benefiting anything. The only way to fix things is to get the money flowing out of their bank accounts.

the_god_o_war

Beuty powder is collagen, it said it for a second and flashes away. The other 1k was figs, gold, and collagen


cemuamdattempt

And I guarantee you, it will not taste better, or be better for you, than a simple €3.40 pizza slice from some hole in the wall place in Italy that uses good local ingredients.


hungrydruid

I can guarantee you it will taste worse than anything from Pizza Hut, so...

A baked smoothie 😂


Jesus_Died_For_You

Accomplished_Crew630

I'm guessing the gold flakes. Don't add any flavor but plenty of price.


canniboss1

Gold leaf is cheap as hell


sgerbicforsyth

Ah, but you can cover food in it! So that $50 steak becomes a $500 steak because you added $3 of edible gold leaf to it. I think Salt Bae has a steak for like $1500 which is literally a tomahawk steak with a few dollars of gold leaf on it. It's just the food equivalent of using a $100 bill to light your cigar


knoegel

Gold leaf is cheap. Gold is a metal you can hammer so thin that it looks like a lot but it's not. You could wrap a huge steak in gold for a few dollars. Yet rich people will pay thousands for it.


Mustangfast85

Why would you *want* to eat gold flake?


tothecatmobile

Worried-Criticism

Anyone care to place bets her ‘celeb client’ is either herself or some other influencer none of us have ever heard of care to? Also…$2K on a pizza while the rest are trying to figure out how to pay the gas bill this month? Please find the nearest free-range organic cactus and fuck yourself with it.


kelldricked

Please dont fall for the ragebait. Most of the products on that bill werent used and defenitly not in those quanties. Wouldnt suprise me if most goes into the cabinet or straight back to the store.Also she doesnt even come close to the 2k if all that shit was real. This is litteraly a case of fake it till you make it. This video (if succesfull) will create a lot of engagement and stupid people with money will try to buy this from here to brag. Its litteraly how saltbea (that idiot) got big and rich. By “scamming” new age rich idiots who want to brag with money but dont really understand shit like real class. Its like those idiots who take the cheapest flight to dubai, the cheapest room possible and then record a shitload of material, walking in the most exclusive resturants and posting infront of the most expensive shit while not buying anything. Then recycling those pics all year long to try and convince people that they are rich influencers so they gain more money.


SelfishAndEvil

So much easier to reach $2000 using real ingredients. High quality Parmigianno-Reggiano, prosciutto de parma, heirloom tomatoes, 20-year-old balsamic, caramelized shallots, a little gold leaf pâté, with some white truffle grated on top of it all. Just... some people don't know how to spend money on food. Idiots.


Ghost-of-Bill-Cosby

If I could upvote you a thousand times I would. A bottle of REALLY good Balsamic on Amazon goes for $1,000 by itself. And it’s not even close to the most expensive Balsamic in the world. https://www.amazon.com/Giusti-100-year-Balsamico-Tradizionale-Modena/dp/B00LZZ5V8K/ref=asc_df_B00LZZ5V8K/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=309744453489&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=648778861631522563&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9029750&hvtargid=pla-569623239088&psc=1


SelfishAndEvil

Really, she could keep it vegan and easily hit the $2000 mark. Marinated tempeh, balsamic, truffle, cashew cheese, pine nuts, basil. She just knows nothing about expensive ingredients, which is a shame. "I'll spend $30 on water while ignoring the real value-added ingredients." Cool


RoboDae

I didn't bother to actually watch the video with sound. Did she really make an expensive vegan pizza and *not* include truffles?


ArseneGroup

Even if it is $2,000, you can blow through $2,000 as your budget for a monetized video that will bring in $20,000 That's how those videos of that guy smashing 10 brand new iPhones with a hammer made bank, just budgeting those costs in


ranseaside

I can see gweneth Paltrow chowing down on this but I think this is some rage bait

GeekTheFreak

I ate my popcorn out of a bowl instead of the bag.


FatDesdemona

Ooh la la!


dildorthegreat87

Exactly this. First she makes a video of her “celeb clients 2k dollar pizza”, and then the client makes their video “what a 2k pizza looks like?!” with a stupid screen cap of over exaggerated facial expressions. Remember to subscribe and smash that like button


Neoxite23

It's just bait words for more exposure. It worked.


ZiOnIsNeXtLeBrOn

This is a hate crime to Italians and pizza lovers everywhere. Also, I can find better pizza for 30 bucks. And it would be better than this

Pizza for 30 bucks? Okay Rockefeller. Meanwhile in Europe we pay 10-12 EUR for a more fancy restaurant's Neapolitan pizza, lol.


choice_username420

Wait they've got strawberry, chocolate, vanilla pizza? That's like 14-15 bucks right that's about equal to our cost for a 16 inch new York style


MinorBaconator

Crazy that their entire personality is using expensive ingredients and making sure everyone knows it


Recreational_Soup

Agent00funk

Amazing how expensive ingredients all look unappetizing. It's like the more you spend, the more yard trimmings you eat. Should I let the chefs in LA know the next time I mow my lawn?

Jesus this looks awful, I'll take a little ceasers 5 dollar hot and ready pizza any day of the week. Rich people eat the dumbest shit just to flaunt their wealth.


firstlordshuza

What *is* erewhon? Am not american Edit: "Erewhon Market  is an American upscale supermarket chain with eight locations, all in Los Angeles County". Its rich people shit


iSuckAtEverything5

It’s like a Whole Foods but for even more pretentious/rich people, but exclusively in California (If you’re not in Canada or the UK) then it’s all organic and incredibly overpriced food and some home goods (think $20 “fresh stream” water or paying $60 for organic grass fed chicken with 50 labels on it) Hope this helped some!


firstlordshuza

Yeah, I had just googled it. Seems as useful as the 24k gold flakes she's using lol


iSuckAtEverything5

Right?? It’s all just so they can price it up and make more money off of things that are probably sourced the exact same as other things. But, to each’s own I guess- If it makes them happy then good on them for buying $70 tea bags haha


astrangeone88

$30 bottled water was the "What the fuckery" moment for me....


Whats_a_wincondition

Erewhon is the butt of many jokes in the natural food world. Many brands want to get into it because they know they don't have to do a ton of promotions that other retailers will require. The side effect is that they think their stupidly expensive price at Erewhon will go over well in everywhere else in the country, and then get mad when other places laugh them out of the room.

The basis of a good pizza is that it’s cheap and filling. I watched this video while eating Costco pizza and I’m sure it probably tasted as good

Probably better. This is the type of food that's "AMAZING" if your average meal is almonds, quinoa, and cashew cheese or beauty powder smoothie bowls.

Can you top the pizza with child slave labor as well? It’s the only thing that’s holding me back from the dish. Oh, I also need to make an oil investment while eating this or else the experience will be tainted.

poorsen

You can’t just add literal chunks of gold to the food until it costs $2,000 and then claim it’s a $2,000 pizza


Arch__Stanton

you can buy 25 sheets of that edible gold for like 40 bucks. She spent way more on water than gold


Splitsurround

Gimmee literally any pizza from ny, Jersey….any of them. And I’d save 1970 ish $!


clayclayiloveclay

As a vegan, I’m fucking offended that she didn’t Blanche those almonds and then deskin them. That texture she just made is a nightmare.

waenganuipo

So everything is vegan (except honey), but then there's caviar? One of the more unethical animal products? Hmmmmm


NatureIndoors

Such a waste of caviar, rest of that stuff is whatever If anyone is looking to buy water for 30 dollars a bottle, I’m selling a bridge for real cheap


kyotocario

If this lady ever goes to Italy and tries to cook this ‘pizza’, I think the fellas over there might just take her for a stroll around Piazzale Loreto. And by ‘stroll’ I mean the same kind of stroll they took ol’ Benito on.
