These are strange times, and every day we say and write this, those times become even more strange.
Take David Chang for example.
The ornate and esteemed chef, an island of routine culinary creativity and a genius of food by any standard, has been finding himself at home for more than a year.

and what began as a complex food ambition has quickly become a notoriously well-known policy in kitchens, including our own - let's call it "give me the fastest, easiest, most efficient, most delicious recipe, and don't confuse my mind".
Chang feeds his nuclear family (and also the slightly more extended one) every day, maintains menus for his adult and tiny son, manages on the way to keeping quite a few restaurants hanging on the brakes, being the face of the restaurateurs' struggle in US government policy (former, at least) And continue to constantly release new episodes on his extensive podcast network.
One of the last of which included a kitchen bomb so lethal that it completely took over the conversation, making us run to recover.
Good luck with making it at home

Three versions, one banana.
Listen
The Banana episode of "Recipe Club", the recipe podcast led by Chang, included relatively complex creations for the yellow fruit (fish wrapped in green banana leaves), slightly less complex (banana pie and coke that does not require baking), and also what was quickly defined by the participants as "The best dessert there has been in the history of this show."
It is, in fact, not to beautify reality, in a kind of fried banana, but before you recreate complex memories from the eighties, come and listen to the end.
This is a Malaysian version of the banana-fritters called Kuin Kodok and actually offers a kind of "puree" bananas wrapped in a great crispy layer, with a bastard twist that makes everything softer on the inside and crispier on the outside.
It's incredibly light, incredibly fast and incredibly tasty.

The recipe, if you can call this thing a "recipe", goes like this:
3 ripe bananas
half a cup of
egg
flour and
about half a tablespoon of sugar
for frying
This is
yes, this is
serious.
This is
in a large bowl, mash the bananas until they are chunky.
Add the flour, egg and sugar, and mix everything until a uniform mixture is formed.
Heat oil for deep frying in a pan, and once it is hot, put in with the help of two spoons a kind of small discs (the size of pancakes, for example) of the mixture.
Remove the fried pieces when they are golden, and place on absorbent paper.
From here, you can water them from above with powdered sugar, inject nutella or peanut butter into the contents, or stop playing games and fantasize that it is obvious that they will not survive until you decide.

And this is another easy recipe for fried banana:
"It's perfectly clear to me that it's a home dessert, but on days like this it's what people need."
Chang and his episode partners - Chris Ying and Rachel Kuang - were aware of the size of the event and the potential of this recipe.
"It's perfectly clear to me that it's a home dessert, but on days like this it's what people need," he explained, "that's what I need, and the fact that these ingredients are always-always available - everyone has them in the kitchen - is great."
The three further discussed the sources of the recipe, sailed to East Asia, stopped at American fairs that offer deep frying for basically everything, and came up with the construction of "Cafe du Mond" in New Orleans, a more neutral version of the Kuin Kodok, but much more mythological.
In the end, they unanimously agreed, it is simply a true Korna abrasion, which does not require an apology for its simplicity.

American mythology in and of itself.

This recipe club format began in the oppressive corona days when Chang tried quite a few spin-offs for his monstrous mother podcast.
One of them, it turned out, caught the attention of listeners excellently and also caught the attention of the really important people - Spotify executives and people from "The Ringer", the home site that has been running it for the past few years, and a podcast empire in itself.
And so, still in the plague, and with a strong public need for content in general and for recipes and cooking in particular, he set out, providing a tastier - albeit theoretical - and funnier version of the classic book club.
It started on several levels in honor of American Thanksgiving, and went on very quickly to a viral storm, which includes both professional (but scary) secrets about making mashed potatoes in restaurants, as well as ripping family stories about birthday cakes in the microwave.
In a sense, we miss the chang of restaurants.
In all other respects, the chang of the house is worth more.
