- (Jason laughs) - (in English accent) Here we have
a nice pound cake with a lemon zest all over.
Very nice presentation here.
- (PvF) Today, we are letting you try celebrities'
favorite holiday foods, and you'll have to try
and guess whose it is. - Ohh, okay.
- Okay! - (React) How's your celeb knowledge?
- I don't know if I'm gonna be able to get any of these right.
- I'm very competitive. Doesn't mean I'm good at guessing.
Okay. - Whoa!
- This looks amazing. Oh my god! - Smells wonderful.
- (PvF) So, up first, we have the Ain't No Jive
Herbed Turkey and Gravy. The secret to this dish
lies in a magical compound butter and homemade orange-infused gravy.
- Orange-infused? - Compound butter is something else.
- I love oranges. Just oranges in general.
- It smells citrus-y.
- (chuckles) - I gotta get
some of the gravy in here.
- Mmmm! - This is something bougie.
This is... this is someone who has the time.
- For the holidays, I bag everything up
and I eat it the days after because I don't like people
seeing me eat. - (PvF) You know this is
a food YouTube channel, right? - Hello!
- I think I like the gravy.
I think that's what I like about it. - Yeah. Yeah, the gravy on to--
'cause mashed potatoes are mashed potatoes, but...
- (PvF) So, whose dish do you think this is?
Is it A, Billie Eilish, B, Snoop Dogg, or C, MrBeast?
- Yeah, I feel like if MrBeast made this,
I would've heard about it. - Because I don't see
any hemp seeds on here, I'm not gonna say Snoop Dogg.
But, you know... - Yeah. (laughs)
- Okay, you know what? Snoop Dogg is friends
with Martha Stewart. - All right.
- Snoopy Snoop.
- (PvF) You both said Billie. - In general, this seems like
a very family meal. Maybe it's just me.
I just feel like Snoop is very family oriented.
- (PvF) Why do you think it's Billie Eilish?
- (laughs) - It's just what I said.
Dart throw. This is a total dart throw here.
- Well, Snoop Dogg is BFFs with Martha Stewart.
And this feels like such a Martha Stewart meal.
- The girl is unique. So, her meal has to be unique.
- (PvF) You are both correct. (ding)
- Ooh! - Well, damn.
- Let's go! - (PvF) This is from
Snoop Dogg's cookbook, From Crook to Cook,
and is a must-make new holiday recipe.
(buzzer) - Really? From Crook to Cook?
- Ooh. - Oh-ho.
- Cookies. Okay, so we're thinking a baker.
- (PvF) Next up, we have cookies with a special twist:
chai tea and eggnog. - Hell yeah.
That sound awesome. I love eggnog.
- I think the celebrity chef is actually Nicole
to tell you the truth. - Getting nice notes of...
(sniffs) cookie. - Oooh! That was a soft break.
- Whoa! - Wow.
- That's nice. - Mmm! Mm-hmm.
- On Christmas, this would be so good.
- This is literally-- it smells and it tastes like Christmas.
- I normally don't like sweet things that much.
This is very good. - Well, and it's not too sweet.
- It's not. - Just watch me eat the whole thing,
'cause I'm gonna eat up both of these things.
- That is nice. That's... - (claps) That's really-- yeah.
- Now I'm trying to think of celebrities that bake.
- (PvF) So, which celeb do you think loves
making these cookies? Is it A, Taylor Swift,
B, Lil Nas X, or C, Selena Gomez?
- (chuckles) - (laughs silently)
- Oh, god! - I want it to be Lil Nas X,
but I don't think it is. - Maybe Selena.
- Has Taylor got it like that? - Mmm.
- Who likes eggnog? - Yeah.
- Lil Nas X. - Boom.
- Taylor got it like that. - Well, I feel like she's very
into the holiday. - Just 'cause he does
the Uber Eats commercials. - And maybe it's a bit obvious
that it's Taylor Swift. I wanted to go with Selena Gomez.
- (PvF) You are both correct. - Let's go!
- Oh my god! (claps) - Damn. Well, whatever. It's fine.
(buzzer) - (PvF) This is actually her recipe
for chai sugar cookies with a cinnamon eggnog icing.
She whipped these up for the 1989 Secret Sessions event
that she threw. - If it just wasn't so sweet,
I would just be eating these all day.
These are really good. - Yeah, take the plate,
'cause I'm eating this cookie.
Oh, speaking of tamales. - Yeah!
- Wow! - Tamales are awesome.
- (PvF) So, a tasty holiday tradition are delicious homemade tamales.
These are filled with chili and pork. - ♪ I love tamales ♪
- Oh my god. It's like Christmas morning.
- (laughs) This is so good! - I don't think you can
go wrong with tamale. - Mm-mm.
- This is insanely good! - We'll just keep eating.
Don't worry about us. We're fine.
- My family hates this word, but the tamales are very moist.
- This is really good. Does it beat my grandma's? Maybe not.
- Wow. This is better than my grandma's.
Don't tell her that. - (chuckles)
- (PvF) Is it A, comedian Hasan Minhaj,
B, Mario Lopez, or C, Cardi B?
- Wow, those are all over the spectrum there.
- More. I need more time to think. So, I'll keep eating.
- I'm gonna go out on a limb. - I'ma go out on a limb here.
- I feel like I'm going with the obvious answer here, so...
- You might be right, though. - Yeah.
- Do I have it right? Cardi B? - So...
- I'm going with Cardi. - I went with Mario Lopez.
- You know... - I mean, he's really family oriented.
- True. - When it comes to tamales
on the holiday season, you make them with your family.
- True. - I don't know who Mario Lopez is.
(laughs)
- (PvF) It is actually Mario Lopez. - Nooo!
- Yes! All right. - OHHHHH!
- Good job. (ding)
- (PvF) Mario's favorite is his grandmother's chili pork tamale,
which they make every holiday season and give out to friends and family.
- Oh, that is very good, Mr. Lopez. - That's so cute!
- Pretty! - Thank you.
- It's so pretty!
- (in deep voice) I'm getting hints of lemon.
- (PvF) This is amaretto pound cake
with a lemon glaze.
- I can smell the amaretto a little bit.
- Mmm. Hell yeah.
- (groans in satisfaction) - That is good.
- Mm-hmm. - Whoa.
- Hmmm! (laughs) - (PvF) You don't like citrus, do you?
- (laughs) - (PvF) Give me your best
British Bake Off analysis. - (in English accent) Here we have
a nice pound cake with a lemon zest all over.
Very nice presentation here. - I don't think--
- It's not my favorite. - Yeah, I don't think I'd eat
a lot of this. - (in English accent) It warms
the taste buds, really gives you a nice feel of the holiday season.
- And overall, the glaze is just top tier.
- I think it's good! - (PvF) Is it A,
Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, B, Shay Mitchell,
or C, Ayesha Curry? - I'm gonna do some safe answers.
- I can see Ayesha Curry making this.
- She wants to be super bougie all the time, I feel like.
She's got bougie vibes with the flowers and stuff.
- I just think her personally kind of reflects this dessert.
- Here, I'll make it-- there you go.
- (PvF) An avid cook...
Ayesha Curry (ding)
loves baking this up at the holidays. - Let's go!
(ding) - (claps) Good job!
- Woo! I knew it! - That's not fun. That...
- (PvF) This is one of her favorite holiday recipes.
And it's the perfect combination of sweet and savory.
- Mm-hmm. It really is. - Yes, it is.
- You know why I knew? 'Cause she's another
cooking celebrity. - Why is everyone
a cooking celebrity?! - Soup!
- Very nice. - A matzo ball?
- Covering all the bases today. - (PvF) The best cure
for any sniffles is a big bowl of matzo ball soup.
- I've never had a matzo ball before.
- I've never had matzo ball soup. This is very good.
- It's never chicken noodle soup. It's matzo ball soup.
It's just-- - Really?
- I love matzo ball soup. - This is so good.
- I could definitely eat this on a cold night.
- This is my first time ever having it.
- Well, what do you think? - It's good!
- The taste isn't bad. It's just the texture is
a little bit hard to put down. - Yeah, I would eat this
if I was sick. - I love the texture.
I think it's very fun. - I don't know what the soup is,
but the soup is good. - I love soup.
- (PvF) Who loves to whip up matzo ball soup
at the holidays? Is it A, Gwyneth Paltrow,
B, Nick Jonas, or C, Kylie Jenner?
- I feel like this isn't weird enough for Gwyneth Paltrow.
- This one's tricky! - (PvF) Who do you think it is?
- Second one. - (both) Yeah.
- Boom. - I am guessing.
That's what's going on. I'm not even thinking at this point.
- Just as far as holiday foods go, I wouldn't think that this
would be Kylie's choice. - (PvF) Well, this is
Kylie Jenner's. - (both) What?!
- Wow! - Really?!
Wow! - No way!
- (PvF) She's a huge fan of this soup and even shares
her recipe for it on Instagram. - What in the world
is this? - Oh my god!
- Damn! - This is sizable.
- (PvF) So, finally, we have a warm and gooey cinnamon bread
that is out of this world.
- Yeah. - Yeah.
- (laughs) I could see you out of the corner of my eye.
I was like, "Wow!" - Mmm!
- I can feel my pores clogging with sugar.
- That is really good. - I wouldn't even share this
with anyone. Get your own bread. - It's good. I really like it.
- Baking bread always is a little more involved
than, like, a pound cake. - Yeah, I could do a nice
little curl up with this. - I love it,
but I don't think I could eat the whole thing in a sitting.
- This is not bad. - I could happily eat
this whole thing. - It kind of tastes like a croissant.
- (PvF) Do we think this is A, Dolly Parton, B, Ryan Reynolds,
or C, Beyoncé? - Interesting options.
- Beyoncé is... there's no way. - I want it to be Ryan Reynolds.
- (laughs) - Free guy.
- Southern-type cooking. - Yeah.
- It feels like it-- - It feels homey.
- So, it is an O. - (both laugh)
- Let me just... (giggles) - I think Ryan Reynolds
wins over any man's heart,
including mine, so... - (laughs) Yeah.
- (PvF) This dish is actually famous at...
Dollywood. (buzzer)
- Ah! (ding)
- Let's go! - (PvF) It's Dolly Parton.
- Ah! - No!
- I wanted it to be Ryan Reynolds. - (PvF) This bread is her recipe,
but it is famously served at Dollywood, her theme park
in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee. - I love that.
- I did not know she had a theme park. - You didn't know that?!
- Dollyworld. Very nice. - I wanna go so badly.
It looks so fun. - Warm, nice, comforting dishes.
I think that's what holiday dishes should be.
- (PvF) So, unfortunately, you guys didn't win today.
- But we did win. We did. - (laughs)
- (PvF) You guys tied for our win with four points each.
- We take those. - (PvF) And as winners,
we will send you home with all the leftovers.
- Amazing. - That is a lot of food.
- That's... - (PvF) To share with friends!
It's the holidays. - I'm not sharing this.
This is all mine. - I have no friends. (laughs)
- Tummy's full. Taste buds are happy.
- Yeah. I'm gonna have to go to the bathroom after this.
- (both laugh) - Wow, TMI.
