I’m just glad I didn’t get electrocuted, all righty. Welcome to Mythical Kitchen, where we unexpect the expected. This large basket. No, we’re not doing a picnic. We are doing the first ever Mythical Kitchen Mystery Basket Challenge. Now, there are five ingredients in here chosen by Sporked from their Five Best Things We Ate This Week series that they do lovely TikToks on. We love our sister wives over at Sporked. Now we have to team up and create a winning dish using all five of the mystery items in this basket. No, this is not derivative of any food network IP! We’re calling this Sliced. Now please, Lily, open up the Sliced basket. Ooh, mushroom jerky, okay. Telling me a mushroom jerked this? Sorry. Oreo thins. Oh. Extra stuff. Even more stuff. How are you gonna make, wait, you’re making thick Oreo Thins now? We have the technology? Cholula salsa, salsa verde mild. I thought this would be kind of gimmicky. It wouldn’t actually be that good, but it really stands up next to other salsa verdes. Number two on our list is this stone fired white pizza from Newman’s Own. This is unbelievable. The crust tastes like restaurant crust. The toppings are a little subdued, so I might add some stuff on my own, but this crust, I mean really something special. Well, we got a regular old Sliced basket challenge going on here. Now, what we gotta do is pick teams. I vote to not get Trevor. Nose goes gets Trevor. What? Nose goes gets Trevor. What, wait, why does no? Did nobody play nose goes? Wait, no, no, no, no, hold on. That means you get Trevor. No, the last person- No, it’s the last person. Did not touch their nose, gets Trevor, okay? Oh, looks like it’s me. I’m sorry. Trevor, I know we sometimes play bully you, but it’s really- I’m excited. As a cook, it’s just you have lost. I set this bit up. Before we started, I said you guys should fight over who doesn’t get me? ‘Cause I suck! I didn’t touch my nose on purpose. And I have problems with insecurities and I think that if we make jokes about them then I don’t have to face them. No, negative self-talk is an invective. Don’t do it. All right, let’s get cooking or as they say here on Sliced, lets do it. What the hell do we do? I don’t know. There’s so many sweet ingredients in here. Yeah, this is a tough basket. I blame Jordan. I know they love Oreo Thins extra stuff. I see tomatillos. Yep. Those are from Mexico. Yeah. Chocolate, in the native Nolato language. That’s from Mexico. Caramel, cajeta, that’s from Mexico. Mexico. This is a thin crust pizza. That’s basically a tortilla. Yeah. That’s from Mexico. Okay. This is just- Meat. Vegan carne asada. Yeah, are we doing a Mexican dish? I’m just like, no, I didn’t say we’re doing a Mexican dish. You said we’re doing a Mexican dish. I think we should do a Mexican dish. Chocolate and chilies are a really great combination. You can get like a little bit of acid, a little bit of spice from that. Make some sort of creamy sauce. Who the hell knows what we’re gonna do with pizza? And then like this, you can use in any sort of like meat dish. As a substitute, you can beef it out. You can add some extra umami. You can make a broth with it. You wanna, ooh. I do wanna try it, ’cause it is like. Who jerked all these mushrooms? It’s good. I like it. Oh, it’s like a savory raisin. I’m a vegan now. All right, I’m gonna start. Are you imagining like a slice like this or like a little hole at the top? I think you can just put the whole thing in there. I think you can just fry it till it’s nice and soft. All right, I’m putting it in. I don’t think anything wrong with it. I’m just gonna start dicing an onion. We’re gonna onion and apple. So you basically start with like a, like a picadillo. Just like a delicious combination of like minced ground beef, various vegetables, fruits. If those start exploding, run. I feel like it’s gonna, I’m gonna put a cover on them. What? You do, you do. Don’t let me tell you how to do your job. You know what I mean? You wanna peel that apple with your teeth for me? I’ll find a peeler. I’ll find a peeler. So, I’m really confident in my execution and strategy of this dish. Are you confident in it? I am, I’m like worried about this like the Oreos. Yeah. What gonna do with the Oreos? We didn’t decide. Okay, so I think we make like a hot sauce, like a, I really fudged up the dice on this onion, dude. How do they do that? What are those knife guts? I don’t know! Oreos, okay, okay, okay. So, we have like some acid from the tomatillo that we’re gonna put in the filling, right? We’re not gonna make a proper mole of course, but I think we can just sort of accent, like an ancho chili. You like ancho, chipotle, which are two of like the fruitiest, smokiest, oh God, my eyes. I know. Smells savory. Ohh, what is, why is it onion so strong? It’s really strong. Oh my God. It’s really. Oh my God. All right, apples, going in the pot. How do you feel? Oh, I need mushroom, I need mushroom jerky. Yeah, this- Keep breaking it up. Oh, can you even chop it? I mean, sliced it. Yeah, don’t say that. Do you think it’s gonna come through though? Do you think the flavor’s gonna come through the mushrooms? Should I add more? Add more, add more. Do you wanna chop those mushrooms? I’m gonna start doing other stuff. So I’m gonna add some salsa verde into that. Oh, I should have browned meat first. Dang it, whatever. Okay, wait, I need to check on these. Okay, yeah, they’re starting to. When’s this, when’s this beef from in the fridge? Yesterday. Close enough. Oh, spices. Where’s, where’s the spices? Find them. Where’s the spices? That’s what they do. You know, Food Network? Which is the network I’ve never heard of. The producers literally tell you to run, you know, check this out. I shot an unaired pilot on Food Network once and the like, host was like, all right, contestants start cooking now. And we’re like, great, thank you. They started going and the producers were like, bus, bus, everybody come back. When he says to, it’s time to start cooking, you gotta run! And I was like, we are in a restaurant, galley style kitchen. There are deep fryers and knives. The guy was like, I don’t care. Do wanna be a star? You’re getting paid $200 to be here. And I was like, okay. And so, next, you know, he was just like, all right, contestants start cooking we’re all just like. Should we run? Yeah, we ran. We’re just running, like. Running in place. Hit and spin moves in between a fryer. Nightmare. There you go, Lily, keep running, Lily! High knees, high knees! You wanna be a Food Network star or do you wanna get relegated to the Cooking Channel like all of our C-List talent? You want me to sprinkle? Yeah, sprinkle. Just like a skosh, which one’s that? A clove? Yeah, clove is powerful. Just like a little bit of clove. Okay, more than that though. Like 10 times more than that. Yeah, that’s good, that’s good. Thank you. Cinnamon! Will it run? Oh God, clove is so strong, oh my God. You told me more. I know, I know, I messed up. That’s good, right? Yeah, yeah, that’s good. Okay. This picadillo is looking pretty nice. Should we taste it? Let’s taste it. Let’s see if that mushroom jerky’s coming out. You like, oh, you got a big chunk of almond. Oh, oh my God. Holy crap, that was hot. My mouth is stronger than yours. Yeah, what happened, how did you do that? You’re like an X-Man. I think this needs sweet. Really? Yeah. You want sugar? Yeah, what, wait, do you have Stevia? Put some, put some Oreo! Needs sugar. Sugar? Oh, should we use like- I need sugar! I don’t have it. Stop calling Trevor sugar! I need sugar. What if I did this? Wait, wait, Lily, wait! I bought this for my banana sandwiches. What’d you put in there? I put a cream. You put, you put a cream? What do you mean you put a cream? I put a stuff. Where did you find a cream? Okay, we have these peppers. Are they soft? Yeah. You peel them? Yeah, they’re kind of hot though. Oh hell yeah, dude. Ow! Ow, maybe if I put it in my mouth. Peel it in your mouth. So, yeah, like people think it’s cool to tie a cherry stem in a knot with your tongue. I can peel a whole poblano in my mouth, check it out. Okay. You like that, Food Network? That was an audition tape. Look how fast we can run and frantic. We got cast. Dried chilies. We’re making a Oreo chipotle ancho hot sauce. Ancho chilies, our dried chili drawer’s over here? I think there’s some in here. Hell yeah. Ancho. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. This is fun fact. Anchos are the dried version of those chilies. And another fun fact, oh, another fun fact. In California, those are mislabeled as paseo chilies in grocery stores for whatever reason. Some say it’s like a Northern Mexican slang, but every Mexican journalist I’ve talked to is like, dude, I don’t know who said that. I think somebody messed up. But a paseo chili is actually a dried version of chili . Who knew? I got milk in a pot! All right, you got milk in a pot. You making the walnut sauce? Yeah, I’m gonna just microwave this and heat it up. Usually put the walnuts in the milk, right? But we’re just gonna put in the- I have such soft teeth. Do we have any chile de arbol? Let me look. Chile de arbol is my favorite ’cause they’re just like small and nuclear and arbol means bush. Can I try that cheesecake? Yeah. Are you a cheesecake beezie? A what? Cheesecake beezie. Is that a Japanese thing? It’s one of the many- Do Latinos know what that means? It’s one of the many forms of beezies. You got a little bit of sourness from cream cheese. Some people will throw in cream cheese. And this fun fact in Mexico they call cream cheese, Philadelphia. I’m gonna add some sour cream to this, too. Yeah, yeah, do you, does sour cream curdle when it gets hot? I don’t think it would, but- How much Oreo do I throw in here? How much Oreo do usually throw in- Hot sauce? Yeah. Like one and a half. Idea, wrap it up in the pizza like a burrito. Fun fact, burrito means little donkey, burro. Donkey, burrito, little donkey. So, you’re eating little donkey. And people don’t exactly know why. Some people think that the original burritos were carried to, I think it was silver mines via donkeys. But then some people said, no body really knows. I’m adding more cheesecake to this. The word taco didn’t really exist until like, the mid 1800s. Tamale is straight up like an indigenous word dating back 10,000 years, but taco. Okay, okay. I’m stuffing the pepper, I’m stuffing the pepper. This is looking good. It looks great. I think what I’m gonna try and do, fold it and then plate seam side down. Wait. Seam side, oh, it’s like a surprise. Yeah, it’s like full on surprise. You don’t wanna like show the effort. The idea of food pornography is actually defined by erasure of process. It’s a very fun academic term from the eighties. Oh, okay, so you’re slicing that very thin. I’m slicing some frozen pizza. Hey, do you want me to slice the other side? Here, shift it to the middle and we can both slice at the same time. This seems safe. This is very safe. Food Network, I mean, the network I’ve never heard of cares about safety. That’s why everybody runs. We’re taking all of the crusts and then we’re going to fry them as a bit of like a, sort of like a bird’s nest situation. Maybe like have this resting, yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh God, I touched the fryer. There we go. And then, and then, and then now, we’re gonna take our nogada sauce. Wow. Look at that, luscious. There we go. Beautiful. Now, garnish, we need garnish, Chef! I found some parsley. Boom. It’s cute. It’s cute, no, no guy ever wants, you know, show someone something and then someone goes, it’s cute. We have our Newman’s Own white pizza crispy bird’s nest with our Cholula salsa verde picadillo filling stuffed inside a fried poblano pepper with our salted caramel cheesecake, walnut and nogada sauce. And then an Oreo chipotle hot sauce. Run! All right, so, these ingredients are BS. Can I just say that? Yeah. We’re supposed to make a dish out of these five things. Yeah! It’s really, I don’t even know what direction to go in. Lemme just get, I need to see what we’re working with here. So this is an Oreo Thin extra stuffed, also known as a regular Oreo. No, this is phenomenal. This is so much better than a regular Oreo. Oh my God. Okay, they’re right. Go check out Sporked.com, this is genius. I think we should get a little bit experimental with it. Yeah. Try to kick Lily and Josh out of the water. Yeah, we’re gonna kick them out of the, how do you do? ‘Cause that’s like, it feels like it’s harder to get force when you’re underwater. So, it be more like throwing them maybe out of the water. Throw, we’re gonna throw them out of the water. Blow them out, we’re gonna blow them out of the water. Oh, we’re gonna blow them out of the water, like a submarine. What do you wanna do? What are you thinking? Protein. Duck. That’s good. They put sweet stuff on duck sometimes. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that’s the mentality. It’s like a French thing, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I think we should, honestly amplify these two ingredients instead of hide them. Maybe we do a little, a little, a little mushroom jus. A mushroom jus? A little mushroom jus. Okay. Make a little something savory there. Nice, okay, that’s good. What do we do with the salsa? You’ll find out, after these messages. Welcome to Sliced. Sliced, the show that is on YouTube and not a channel on network television. That’s right. Hey Nicole, you’re not gonna ducking believe this. Sorry, Autocorrect. You’re not gonna ducking believe this. Sorry, Autocorrect. You’re not gonna believe this. What, what is it, what is it? I have duck breasts. Hey, check out, it’s actually cool. They’re the exact same size, 1.01 pounds. That’s insanity. Same sized boobies are the stuff. Are they the same price? Yeah, well that’s how generally that works. Oh my gosh. By pound. I’m gonna get some, oh, nice. That pan’s hot. That’s good stuff. So I’m gonna get a little bit of water in there. Nice. I’m gonna add a bunch of this mushroom jerky. See if we can get some- Get it moving. Mushroom flavor coming out. Nice. And this is salt and pepper. So it’s already seasoned. Is there any soy sauce in there? No meat, no soy, just ‘shrooms, so. Is that like their tagline? That’s what it says on the thing. That’s really funny. Yeah. Okay, what’s that? I’ve got a classic French Demi-Glace, prepackaged. Oh, shoot, okay. Secret ingredient time. If you ever want your food to taste like it’s from a restaurant, use Demi-Glace. It’s like, it’s almost like a stock that’s cooked down so that it’s super gelatinous. But this one’s made with beef and veal, which I’m super into. Look at this guy on here. This is so funny. Morgan, I don’t know if you can get this in like 4K. This is the funniest thing ever. Look at this dude on here. Why is it funny? I don’t know, he just looks hilarious. What’s his name? It’s like, he’s so snooty about it. You would think that the cheesecake and the Oreos would be the hard part. Like for me, I can see in my head some ways that those might work. I have no idea how to fit a frozen pizza in here. I think we gotta use it as an ingredient instead of like a part of the dish. Yeah, well, that’s what Josh and Lily did. They only use the crust. Yeah, I think that’s fine, yeah. I think that’s fine, yeah. This is cooking. I really can’t get behind this mushroom jerky. It’s left a very awful taste in my mouth. I’m sorry about that. And now I’m gonna be sad for the rest. I’m sorry, but I’m gonna start scoring this a little bit and then I’m gonna do a little diamond shape. Very important, when you score, you don’t wanna go all the way to the flesh, you know. You just wanna do a nice little light score. Is this the spatula that you were using? Yeah, it was. Can you see this? Yeah, of course. I just wanna look. This is, okay, so the shocking development. The pizza crust is getting soggy. I’m cooking up some chili powder with this here duck breast. I’ve been listening to a lot of like conspiracy theor, not, not conspiracy theory. It’s real. How can it be real if it’s a conspiracy theory. Have you heard of the Men in Black? I’m just gonna be taking some of this Cholula mild and I’m just basting my duck breast with it almost like a lacquer so it can get a nice beautiful sheen on it. Nice. Oh my God. All right, so- No way. We pulled out our duck breast and it’s looking, it’s looking beautiful. I was gonna say borgeous, beautiful and gorgeous. Beautiful and gorgeous. It’s a nice, it’s a nice sear. You can see it’s nice and brown and delicious. It’s not golden brown. It’s brown, brown. But it’s still perfect. That smells really nice. Yeah, it smells, it smells nice and intense, which I like. I got the jus. It’s smooth though. That’s good. It like, looks like it has a good texture. I’m worried about how it’s gonna, okay, that was fast. You don’t like it? It needs salt. Yeah, it needs salt. It needs a lot of salt. It needs to not have mushroom jerky in it. Also that, but I need a lot. Yeah, maybe some pepper. What can we save this with? What should we save this with? Prayer. Surely, there’s like a spice that we can use. Yeah, surely. Smoked paprika? Nope. Onion powder? Nope. Fenugreek? No. Okay, you’re honestly being too dramatic right now. While you’re coughing- I’m not. Okay, while you’re coughing up a storm, why don’t you put some pumpernickel? Do you hearing me? Do you hearing me? Okay. Okay, so I say we make like some sort of like really fancy, like soil, like an Oreo soil to go on with our- Okay, yeah. You’ve made a couple soils, I think, on the channel before. I think it’s kind of, it’s something, it’s a theme, bit of a theme. I’ve made a soil more than once? I think you’ve made at least one soil before. Have I? Wow, I’m so predictable. I’m gonna do something a little crazy. I’m gonna make a smoked caramel bearnaise. Oh my God, shut up. And it’s gonna be so good. You have no idea. Wow. Yeah, it’s gonna be a trip. Wow. This is French’s Frick. It’s the French loved Oreo Thins and Newman’s Own white pizzas. You’ve cracked two yolks. I apologize to every French person that I’ve ever met. This is kind of joever. Joever? Yeah. What does that mean? God, you can’t make me explain joever right now on the show. What does joever mean? I’ll just have to show you. Gimme one second. I’m waiting for the pumpernickel, anyway. Morgan, you’re gonna want get this when I have it. As I whisk. Entertain me as I whisk. Yeah, hold on. Okay, so here we go. I’ll show you the phone in a second. It’s joever. Can I see? I wanna be a part of the, oh, it’s like Joe Biden. What are your thoughts on if I eat a couple more? You can eat as many as you want as long as the pumpernickel bread is getting nice and toasty. I don’t mind, even in the slightest. Is it worth it for the bit? Yeah. To eat what? One two three four five six. Oh, how many you can fit in your mouth? I can go for 10, I think. If I didn’t have nails on I could fit my whole fist in my mouth. Married. I gotta take two off. We’re going eight. Huh? Wow. You can get married too, that’s good. For someone who hasn’t made a Cast member in a few years it’s looking pretty good. Oh man, why do we have so much avocado oil? That’s my fault, no seed oils. Oh yeah, robust garlic, no! Frick it, we’re doing this one. Oh, there’s a bottle there the whole time. All right, cooking technique, that’s plugged in. I didn’t get a big enough sheet tray. Just cut. Oh no, I go sideways, sideways. Oh my God. Got a little bit of olive oil on the Oreo. That’s okay. Wow. Welcome to Sliced! I’m gonna take a big, big old hunk of this cheesecake and I’m just gonna mix it into this hollandaise sauce. Do you want me to roast the rest of the asparagus or- No, I just need- What’s the word here? I think we just need a few. I think it’s just for prettiness on the plate. It’s not like- I got like a lot in there. That’s okay, that’s fine. I’m gonna go wash my hands. That sounds like a great idea. Oh, my freaking nipple. The water got right on my nipple and now my nipple is cold and it’s just the right one. So now I feel all off kilter. A spotted goose, like the Veggie Tale. Is there an asparagoose? I believe, I think there’s all sorts of vegetables. No way. In Veggie Tales, yeah. I’ve never seen a Veggie Tale. I believe there are. That’s incredible. Carrots, as well. Carrots, as well. And then, if there’s Bob the Tomato and Larry the Cucumber. And if you like to talk to tomatoes. Oh, this is dry. Yeah, yeah, yeah, okay. Yeah, shove it in there, man. Are we impressed with what we’ve done here? Not really. Is it gonna taste good? Probably not. But did we try our best and did we try our best and make sure that we had fun along the way? Absolutely. Abso-tootly. Our duck breast is a beautiful medium rare. How many of these seeds do you think, four, five? Surprise me, surprise me. Measure with your heart or whatever. This is gonna suck too. We’re gonna lose. You know what matters? Like I said, this dish is going to be horrific, but you know what’s not horrific? The memories. KG found me a Diet Coke, shout out. I’m just glad I didn’t get electrocuted, all righty. So here’s this duck jus. We’re just gonna go ahead and lay it in the middle like this. Pretty good, right? Did you add more stuff to that or? I added a little bit of Dijon mustard and it ruined it. Just a touch of Dijon. Okay. Okay. And then we’re gonna put. Yo, where’s the, oh yeah. Yeah, you can have that as a snack. We’re gonna add our duck breast right there. A little bit of, hmm. I’m gonna fan. We should just do three, right? Yeah, just three. Just three. This is hilarious. Yeah, right. Okay, and then, throw throw some soil on there, man. Solid fingers. Creative, creative soil. Nice, wow. You’re doing a really good job. It’s like dirt on the plate. It’s so much dirt. Welcome to culinary school, beware. Josh and Lily got a big old pepper on a plate. We got two sauces. We got crap. There you have it. Cholula duck breast with Oreo soil, mushroom jus and cheesecake bearnaise. Jordan Myrick from Sporked.com. We have two dishes in front of you that have both been cooked with your five favorite items that you ate this week. Nice, these look beautiful. Thank you. You can eat whichever one. Okay. I’ll start on this side. Is this a chile relleno? Technically, yes, but it is more specifically a chile anogada. So we made a nogada sauce, a walnut sauce with the salted caramel cheesecake. And then the salsa verde is inside the filling where we also have apples, ground beef and the mushroom jerky is on a nest of fried Newman’s Own shaved pizza crust. How fun. For texture, the hot sauce has the Oreos, the bunch of ango chili. That’s delicious. Wow, the sauce is like nutty, but spicy. Should have some sweetness coming through from that cheesecake in there. It does, but it doesn’t taste like the cheesecake. I’ve eaten all these items separately, wow. And these Newman’s Own pizza crust. I’m impressed. Hey, thank you. So for you today, Jordan, we have a Cholula duck breast with a mushroom jus, a salted caramel bearnaise and Oreo crumble. Please enjoy. Mm, I love bearnaise. We used the Newman’s Own pizza crest in the jus. That’s right. To thicken it. Yeah, that’s right. And the crumbs, they’re just straight up Oreo. So, it’s Oreo pumpernickel and warm spices. Oh, interesting, okay. Yeah. The asparagus is normal. Are they tarragon and shallots in your bearnaise? No. Seems more of a hollandaise to me. Okay, that’s good too. [Nicole And Trevor] No way! I’m surprised. No, all together it’s good? Yeah. Okay. That’s a win, baby! That a win. Everything reads sweet separately, but with the duck, it actually kind of balances it out. It’s cohesive. It gives it like a savory saltiness, brings it together. So yeah, when I’m tasting the sauces separately, I’m like, this tastes like a dessert sauce. But yeah, much better than I thought it was gonna be. Same. Same, ’cause I tasted the sauces and I spit both of them out. Yeah. Okay, yeah, I don’t think it’s worth that. But this doesn’t taste like it has blended up pizza in it, you know? And so I think that’s a huge win. Jordan, do you feel you have enough information to crown a winner of today’s first ever Sliced Mystery Basket Challenge brought to you by Sporked.com? I do. Jordan in three, two, wait, no, hold on. I messed it up. Jordan, hi. You’ll put your hand over the winning dish in three, two, one. Let’s go. I’m so proud of us. I think we did awesome. I think we did so good. I think we did such an incredible job. We won because of friendship. Yes, and I think that’s worth it. We’re better friends than Josh and Lily are. Yeah, we feel like winners. That’s the real win. We feel like winners, so thank you. I love that. And I’m best friends with all four of you. Oh yeah. That’s so true. That’s cute. Both are great, but this one, just, this one everything tasted good separately. This one, everything only tasted good together. So that gave this one a slight edge, but honestly, I liked both. So, thank you so much. Thank you so much, Jordan. We appreciate it when you come. Jordan, thank you so much. You don’t have to, but if you want to, you can. That’s nice. Thank you so much for that. That was a nice moment for me. Hey, maybe you check out Sporked.com for all of your grocery needs and see Jordan, we’re close now. I know, we’ve always been close. Bye.
