bestie that was the explicit statement, they wanna make sure we know the ot3 is not happening and jamie's straight 😭😭😭😭😭

That man is straighter than the Leaning Tower of Pisa. His wardrobe screams both Barbie and Ken, and I guarantee he'd want to fuck both Barbie and Ken in the upcoming Barbie movie. They're going to have to write "HE'S NOT BI" in permanent marker on his forehead to counteract literally just the dangly earring he wore in 3x03, and barely just.

The fact that his team, his coaches, and the funky gay journalist writing a book about them all collectively think he's fruity? The fact that he doesn't outright deny it, but expresses flattery instead? I think the writers choosing omission over denial is significant. And even if it goes nowhere in the narrative, what it does accomplish is allowing room and flexibility for the audience's perception, and that's enough for me. I will simply be a B.B.O. (bi by omission) truther.

Mincemeat Kings' Crown

When I visit someone, I never come empty-handed. Whomever that someone is: a friend, family, a co-worker, an overseas landlady, a brief lover, an Airbnb host... I can bring flowers, Chocolates, or a small gift, a good bottle of wine, or home-brewed Cider or Liqueur, perhaps. But more often than not, it's cake. Cake makes people happy, doesn't it? Thus, as we are visiting my sister, Jules, in Dijon this weekend, and she's said she hadn't had a Kings’ Crown or Cake yet, I baked this beautiful Mincemeat Kings' Crown to bring her. A delicious way, we found, of toasting (with home-brewed Cider) to her new table, bench and chairs after spending an arvo assembling them!

Ingredients (makes 1 brioche):

4 cups strong white flour

1/3 cup caster sugar

4 ½ teaspoons active dry yeast

2 teaspoons salt

4 large eggs

½ cup milk

1 cup unsalted butter, cut into small chunks

1/2 cup Ava’s Mincemeat 

a fève*

1 egg, lightly beaten

½ tablespoon milk

1/4 cup Honey Syrup 

1 tablespoon pearl sugar

The day before, combine strong white flour, caster sugar, yeast and salt (they shouldn’t touch at this stage) in the bowl of an electric stand mixer fitted with the hook attachment. Turn on low speed until well-combined.

Turn on medium speed and add the eggs and milk, and mix 4 minutes until smooth and elastic. The dough will be quite sticky at this stage. Gradually add butter, a few chunks at a time until fully incorporated. When all the butter is incorporated, increase speed to high and mix, 4 to 6 minutes, until dough is soft, shiny and slaps the sides of the bowl.

Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead lightly to form a ball. Pop the dough ball in a lightly oiled large bowl and cover with cling film. Let rise at room temperature for an hour.

Again, turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead lightly. Shape into a ball, and return dough to the lightly oiled bowl. Cover with cling film, and prove once more a couple of hours or until the dough has tripled in size. Place the bowl in the refrigerator overnight. The dough will continue proving, which will give the brioche a light and airy texture.

In the morning, remove the bowl from the refrigerator, and allow the dough to come back to room temperature, for 1 hour.

Line a baking tray with baking paper. Set aside.

Remove cling film and turn dough out on a lightly floured surface. Divide the dough into three equal portions. Roll two of the portions into large rectangles onto a lightly floured surface.

Spread half of the Mincemeat onto the first dough rectangle, leaving at least an inch on the outward edge, and roll it tightly like you would a Swiss roll, seal the seam, and gently roll into a long “sausage”. Set aside.

Spread remaining Mincemeat onto the second dough rectangle, leaving at least an inch on the outward edge. Again, roll gently but tightly.

Roll the plain portion into a long “sausage” the same length as the others. Hide the fève* in it!

Place them all vertically on the work surface, pinching the end of all of them firmly together. Plait, and shape into a crown. Place on prepared baking tray. Leave to prove for 30 minutes to one hour in a warm, draught-free room.

Whisk the egg and milk together.

Preheat oven to 190°C/375°F. Once the brioche has risen, brush thoroughly with egg wash. Bake at 190°C/375°F  for 35 minutes, until a nice golden brown colour.

Meanwhile, heat Honey Syrup in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer until slightly thickened. Remove from the heat.

Remove Mincemeat Kings’ Crown from the oven, and immediately brush all over with the Honey Syrup, to glaze. Sprinkle generously with pearl sugar. Transfer to serving plate and let cool for a bit before serving and finding out who’ll be crowned Queen or King! Serve with chilled Cider (Brut or Doux).

*A fève is a tiny porcelain figurine traditionally hidden in Epiphany Galette des Rois or Kings’ Brioche in France. Whoever finds it in their slice is Queen or King for the day. Before it was a figurine, a dried fava bean (”fève”, in French) used to be hidden, hence the name.
