Molly and Chris are such a chaotic duo
Then Rapo drops in 😅
When molly was waving the paper around, she looks like a little sister bothering her brother
I think it's just Molly XD
Ikr the duo i never thought i needed
Chaotic good
Claire isn't here cause there's a WHOLE SERIES dedicated to this
BFS HA! So true 😂
Right? It's Claire's revenge
lolololol
Haha
Claire isn't here because I know she's good at EVERYTHING. 😂😉
What is the hardest task in cooking?
Test Kitchen: “Claire’s job.”
XDXDXD
Nah! Can Claire guess the brand, the product , the shape , size, by touching , feeling , smelling , and tasting it blindfolded and then recreate it? . That is what Chris does!
@@vinto1586 that's because he has more taste bud clusters that are tightly packed. That's a physical ability that you cannot replicate. Claire develops substitutes for massive machines and million dollors worth of research over months of years by major companies. Then she does it in several days.
Vineet Bhargava you gotta understand how scared the others are of her show because of how darn terrifyingly difficult it is.
@@rollfaceonkeyboard Well, the thing is however good Chris might be he still misses things because he is human , he is good but still makes mistakes. Why? coz he is blindfolded. Now my point was not who's job is more difficult/hardest.Just that Claire has an advantage coz she can taste, see the product, read the ingredients, research and scale operation to size using well researched alternatives seeking other peoples help. People are just biased because of their affection for her. Both Claire and Chris do difficult jobs , but remove the ability to see the dish , read the ingredients , would Claire be able to guess the color additive "yellow lake 5".She has an advantage off the bat when she reads the ingredients. So Recreating it is possible if not easy.
I love how Chris says: "Even Claire has had trouble with that". It shows that he holds her in high regard and respects her culinary skills. :)
Claire constantly takes on the hardest things.
If Claire fully realized how amazing she is she would start an empire.
I mean, she's a pastry chef that went to culinary school.
I'm sure Chris holds most of his co-stars in high regard and respects their skills. The reason he mentioned Claire specifically was because she's the one with the most experience tampering chocolate due to being a pastry chef
She is pastry chef, this is what she was learning
even when claire isn’t in the video, claire is in the video.
The chocolate tempering is a homage to Claire
@@arlandeetagaytayan4154 well, the chocolate tempering and the dumpling too
I loved how they kept mentioning her hahahahaha
An icon. Her legacy precedes her throughout the entire test kitchen
that’s what I wanted to write ahahahah
placing Gaby beside Brad only emphasizes their size difference lol she's so tiny and he's so tall
Brad sitting on a stool is still taller than Gaby standing
I’m just so glad they put her with someone who will let her finish her sentences this time!!
hungerofthepine wait who was she with last time?
Fareeha Mehmood She was with Chris in one of these and he just kept talking over her!
@@hungerofthepine7684 yeah im glad Brad listened more this time around!
*I need someone to look at me the way Delaney looks at everyone he talks to*
Jillian Barker True! He has great puppy eyes - that downturned face that pops up to smile.
Jillian Barker i know omg i came to comments to see if anyone else would talk about that haha
He holds eye contact to show that you’ve got full attention and is the definition of “smiling with eyes”.
I taught myself to crack eggs with one hand when my cat really wanted to be held while I made scrambled eggs. Sometimes it just takes the right motivation.
Oh my gosh, and I thought I spoiled my cat 😹 new challenge, I guess!
I learned when my daughter wouldn't let me put her down lolz I don't do it well, but I can do it without any shells in the bowl. I agree with you about the motivation part.
accidentally cracked the cat
The Gaby + Brad pair gives me an elementary school arts and crafts teacher next to a bored and overgrown kid
Yes! And it makes me want to watch more videos with the two of them ♥
Arts and crafts teacher with the overexcitable gym teacher lol
If you haven't already watched the Claire and Brad make doughnuts series, you should go and appreciate that same energy there.
And she's so wonderfully patient and encouraging. 💕
overgrown (frustrated) kindergartener learns origami
Even chris’ panic mode is so refined
Possible the most classy panic mode of all time
Chin Lim stfu!!!!
I like that everyone’s reference is Claire. It proves she is the master chef of the BA Kitchen.
Sana’s Shy Language Well she did go to Harvard and also worked in France as a pastry chef for a while. She’s amazing!
@Stormtrooper1488 ok boomer
@Stormtrooper1488 *pursuing
@Stormtrooper1488 I didn't know I could do that but thanks for the suggestion
@Stormtrooper1488 Bragging about your IQ while simultaneously making spelling and grammatical errors... Niiice.
"Claire would like a word."
I'm dying.
Appreciating Brad bending down to be at eye level with Gabby
Brad is Luke to Gabi's Yoda, and is totally okay with that. That is why Brad will always continue to excel and grow, and others will falter sure in their culinary supremacy.
And I appreciated his cornet nose.
Probably to fit in the same shot. They'd need 3 apple boxes to get gaby to brad's level
@@chrism45 Or brad could sit down
He does this with almost everyone- Claire, Chris, etc., and sometimes I've seen him doing it in the background, so it's not just a framing thing. I definitely feel bad for his back when he''s talking with Gaby, though, so I was glad to see him sit in a chair at the end.
30 seconds in an chris is back at it again with the chocolate tempering.
More like 10 seconds
Humanity appreciates chocolates. Except tootsie rolls🤢
Chris: Tempering chocolate is hard and boring and I hate it
Also Chris: Hey Claire you gonna Temper that chocolate?
Jina Gibson How _dare_ you! Tootsie rolls are magnificent.
@@jinagibson6818 tootsie rolls are amazing, and also not chocolate.
"Hardest Cooking Tasks"
Claire: 🙂
I like how these are all just a bunch of things that Claire has mastered.
fakecubed except for the tempering! Lol
Ok lol but Claire is pretty good at everything, even tempering chocolate, she just doesn't want to anymore lmao
Jimmy Santacruz i get that. i tried to do it multiple times in a row one night and after that, i decided that i’m never trying again lmao it’s so frustrating like the steps seem so easy and simple and you feel like you did everything well and it just never turns out right!
@@Kayla-rd5jd yea I've tried my fair share too. I get brunt out way too quick. It's so boring sometimes too
Chris is such a nice guy considering he has such a *temper* issue.
LOL good one.
Nice.
BA should pin this comment
Dad joke af🤣
ba_dum_tss.wav
Molly and Chris are my last two braincells in math class
Hahaha hahaha
Yessssssssss 🤣🤣🤣
I lost it when Molly was trying to make up a rumor that Chris hates seafood right in front of him
alex and christina: making the perfect potato chip is impossible
claire: so today we're making ruffles
I think Pringles is the best example because they all have the same shape.
Tempered chocolate ribbon dancing. Give the people what they want, Olympics.
Morgan Lozano bruh I would pay to see that
mollympics*
Synchronized team competition
Chris asking if they can throw a few other things into Molly's hypno session has me ROLLING lmaooo
So many options. Lol
@@kimbarbeaureads 1: You will finish words. 2: Parmesan and salt doesn't make a good pasta sauce.
I know I'd have a long list.
U don't need that much salt of once
The amount of times Claire was mentioned in this video without even being in the video is impressive
This
Everyone loves her, it’s only natural
Christina and Delaney have a really good chemistry - I would love to see them again as a duo
Agreed!
Bex Morgs you got your wish! They did a One of Everything episode that just came out.
Delaney: "... industrial machines that can do things you literally never can."
Claire: AM I A JOKE TO YOU?
When claire is an industrial machine herself lololol
I really wanted Claire to just *~appear-* behind him and say "you sure about that?"
The 'Claire would like a word edit' proves that the editors thought the same thing
“Hold my dremel”
The Chris & Molly duo needs to happen A LOT more often.
ruchusk no.
Yes.
I agree! They were such good foils to each other.
YES
ruchusk STFU!!!!!!
Seeing Claire without her natural hair is like seeing her high school yearbook photos. She looks so different, but in the best way.
EDIT: People seem to be misinterpreting my comment. Go look at her old videos where her hair is dyed, that's what I'm referring to. I'm very aware her grey is natural.
It's not natural, she dyed her hair black back then because of the grey.
I'm very mildly upset that Priya and Sohla didn't get to make their dishes, the food seemed so intricate and interesting and yummy. Everyone was as charming as usual.
Maybe we'll get a follow up episode on that. I think maybe they didn't because they describe complete dishes that were hard but they have already learned how to make, whereas the other mostly just described one technique that they still haven't mastered.
Ikrrr 🙌
Another example of why BA recently had their mass exodus lol. No aloo parathas on camera? COME ON.
I would like a video where the chefs talk about food or ingredients they absolutely dislike and talk about why they don't like them. Maybe even have someone else make a dish with the ingredients they dislike.
This reminds me of the episode where Chris and Carla don't like turnips and Molly made a chicken pot pie with turnips.
You have just described Food fear on GMM
Edmund THAT IS AN AMAZING IDEA
This reminded me of when Priya cooked with bell peppers and people discovered that a lot of them don’t like bell peppers. lol
Disliking foods to a chef would probably be similar to jumping to conclusions or using opinion in their cooking which could limit their creativity because they dont like an ingredient and dont want to use it. having the ability to appreciate ingredients for their diffrent qualities and flavours while having the skill and knowledge to be able to make something desirable probably helps make a good chef!
we're slowly making our way to the Gourmet Makes where Claire can sit off to the side in a leisure suit while everyone in the test kitchen makes something for her
Ah, fellow Jenna fan, I see
LEEE-ZUR SEWT BEEETCH!!!
Pastry chef attempts to take a break and leisure
We NEED to see the others do an episode of gourmet makes
Collin Noble yes!!! and clare needs to be there watching with a glass of wine or non-alcoholic grape juice lol
Can we get an episode where Sohla makes that rice dish? it sounds amazing. Also, you guys should make this same episode but with only Claire. Her resume of difficult tasks is endless.
Frycolumb Nil there’s an episode of Andy making tahdig if you just want to see someone making the dish. I would love to see Sohla’s version though!
I need Sohla and Priya to make those dishes, they sound so good
Priya already has a vid making aloo parata
@@kotaniyumiko and it wasn't even good looking aloo paratha
I feel like they were not briefed the prompt properly. I love Sohla though so it's fine.
Ikrrr 🙌
I love how Claire is mentioned like some kind of Test Kitchen Cryptid
imagine if this was someone's first BA video and they were like "who's claire?"
So I heard a rumor that Chris doesn't like seafood...
Why isn't this a more popular comment?!?
Omg really? And he calls himself a chef!
good one.
I HATE SEAFOOD
not everyone is perfect
can I just say that I love the way Delaney looks at people while he’s listening to them?? you can just tell he really hears people. what a man
so glad they paired gabby with braaad!! he listens and allows her to talk and they have great dialogue always!
Kariz as Claire says, he’s very sensitive and tends to other people’s feelings :)
its the big guy tiny lady duo. it always works
@Stormtrooper1488 wtf do you have against gabbi, she's so sweet
@Stormtrooper1488 reported for hate speech
Stormtrooper1488 I’m struggling to find your point..🤨🤨
seeing claire with straight hair and no grey streak threw me through a loop lol. like you’re our claire but you look so different.
With full on make up
She looked like Monica lewinsky in that clip
Yeah, and tbh, the gray streak looks so good on her, its weird to see ner without it XD
She was dyeing out the streak for a while, but has given it up more recently.
GY2 GY2 is it natural? Interesting
5:05 "ba_dum_tss.wav"
This is my type of humor.
When molly started to twirling around w the tempered chocolate like a crackhead I felt that
three out of five of these mentioned Claire
is Claire actually the most skilled chef in the test kitchen
I mean, we been knew.
Have you seen what she does versus what everyone else does? At least as far as the shows go she has shown by far the widest set of techniques she's competent at.
That's the reason she's the host of Gourmet Makes. Wbk 💁✨
Yeah I think Chris and Claire. But obviously I love all the test kitchen chefs and they have their personalities, skills, and mastery of specific areas that still make them awesome!
Ola Englund fangay shes extremely smart too she went to Harvard
This kitchen is really just full of adorable people
Totally agree with you. 💯
And they're all totally lovable too.
Andy: "No, I just slowly like to fail and suffer"
Editors: Same
I died XDXDXD
I love they make Chris, who bullied Claire into tempering chocolate all the time, have to temper chocolate.
It's really nice to hear and see pro chefs admit that not everything is clean cut and straight to the point when it comes to cooking. Mistakes happen and people aren't always able to do everything perfectly on their first try. BA really makes cooking interesting, and definitely less intimidating to an amateur like myself. Thank you guys for being so candid and amazing!
I know! Hearing Chris say that he finds it difficult to crack an egg one-handed just made me feel so vindicated (validated?)
Yep, and making a mistake isn't just a professional chef/judge yelling in your face.
I think that’s what draws me to BA. It’s a “test” kitchen and I love seeing them test and modify things. You don’t get that anywhere else.
This is why I first fell in love with BA!
I like that for a lot of videos they'll show them making mistakes along the way. Like the pizza series as they mentioned. Or the Thanksgiving series
When I first started watching Bon Appetit, they had only a few faces in videos like Chris, Claire and Carla. NOW they have everyone popping up in the videos and I couldn't be happier! I know all the chefs and their personalities and quirks. It's like being a part of a big kitchen family:)
Stormtrooper1488 you act like you know these people😂😂😂🤦🏾♀️ every chef in that kitchen earned the right to be there! Just because you have a gross obsession for Claire doesn’t make any of the chefs more or less qualified!!
Stormtrooper1488 the “viewing figures” literally speak nothing on their capabilities! It speaks to their popularity!! They’re watched more because they’re entertaining not because theyre better!! Most people prefer watching guy fieri over Gordon Ramsey because guy is funnier and more outrageous 😂does that mean guy is even close to Gordon?? NOOOOOO🤣
Stormtrooper1488 it’s a matter of opinion because I prefer Molly’s recipes! They taste better in my experience! And ricks tips and techniques are are clearer and more consise than the others!! Brad can barely get a sentence out clearly 😂😂 but I still like his videos because he’s relatable and funny and doesn’t take himself too seriously!! That’s all it boils down to..PERSONAL PREFERENCE!! I wouldn’t mind you stating your PERSONAL OPINIONS if you don’t feel the need to tear down other amazing chefs in the process🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️if their light shines bright enough why do you feel the need to try and unscrew other peoples bulbs??? They all shine in their own way
Chris Morocco, super-taster extraordinaire, describing the taste of chocolate as "chocolate-y" is exactly what I needed today.
Anonymous he got beaten by half the the other chefs in the taste test challenge thing
Alternative title; "a list of things Claire can do"
Am I the only one who finds Delaney SO attractive? Hes cute, great personality, and has those heart eyes all at the same time.
you’re not alone, he’s a sweetheart 😍
I find him attractive too. He is funny and interesting too
I dislike him dunno why
At first I always thought his first name was Delaney 😂😂
absolutely irresistible 😍 He has my heart honestly ❤️
I would watch ANYTHING with Gaby in it. But the entire rest if that group has so much chemistry together, you can’t find a poor pairing. Just stream the test kitchen on an endless loop please
Scrolling/strolling live camera!
I’d never get anything done. I’d be hunting for Brad sightings.
A constant live stream would honestly be my dream
I still want IT'S DEAD With Gaby
I just can't get on board with Priya. She's the only one I don't like, and it actually bugs me that I can't pinpoint why.
Chris and molly is like if harry potter characters are all slytherins instead of gryffindors lol
Molly and Chris: Talking about Tempered Chocolate
Sohla, the Chocolate Temperor: Is right behind them
For some reason, Christina and Delaney together is so AESTHETICALLY PLEASING to see. Is it just me??
I think she's the only woman at BA who is about as tall as Brad, Delaney, and Chris.
i think they have the same older sibling cool seniors vibe and everyone else is like sophomores
Thank you! I was scrolling trying to find someone who thought it too!!
@@mollysun7340 you're spot on oh my god
Cause they're both so smiley! It makes you smile to just watch them
Imagine if molly copied your assignments in highschool, she'll turn a 1000 word essay into 150.
Really? I feel like it would still be 1000 words, but they'd all be mollyisms, would barely make sense, and somehow get 108 %
Like A++, no issue
@@marcussavina2726 Definitely this.
Same word count, half the syllables haha.
Sohla speaking about tahdig!!! My Persian heart is happy
I love how Brad doesn't look down at Gaby in the intro because of their height difference. He goes down to meet her eye level. Very indicative of his character.
Something about Gaby's tiny expert hands showing Brad's big big hands how to fold the papers made me so happy
They didn’t cast Claire because if she had to temper chocolate again the world would end
Lol.
when Chris said “even Claire ....” makes me think that she is the queen in this kitchen ....
I like how while Chris and Molly are discussing how hard it is to temper chocolate and how even Claire has trouble with it, master chocolate temperer, Sohla, is casually cooking in the background. Justice for Sohla.
That vintage Rapoport photo needs to be framed and mounted on the test kitchen wall.
The picture should be the wall.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Molly does a chocolate tempering dance.
That's what Claire has been missing this whole time
@@Tygerflameprodutions Maybe that's why her chocolate doesn't always set she's not dancing into it
Seriously the best part of this ep
BUEHZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
Seriously, the editing is what taked BA videos to the next step, I just love their editing. "Sans Gray streack" "Claire would like a word" "Same" They're just *chef's kiss*
Chris: Just casually mixing chocolate
Molly: Dancing around in the background and smiling like a maniac
My two favorite aspects of this are
1- Molly’s ribbon dancing
2-the shortest and tallest people being teamed together so that when Brad is sitting he is the same height as Gabby.
Chris: Tempering chocolate is the hardest thing to do in the kitchen!
Also Chris: Claire, you have to temper the chocolate!
EierFlip lol he knows her abilities and superiority
This is getting OLD. You HAVE to temper the chocolate IF YOU CLAIM TO MAKE "gourmet" chocolate/ knock offs of certain foods LIKE CANDY, FFS. Enough already.
I LOVE Gabby and Brad together- they're just like a grandmother and her grandchild! It's just super amusing to me lol
Claire: “Been there done that.”
Can we get an entire series of Gaby teaching Brad things??
I was so disappointed I didn't find Delaney under my Christmas tree. Maybe next year.
Ew.
@@Bonzulac No u
Who is DelanEy?
mood
Priya and Sohla are like the one nerdy sister and the other cool one
Jacob Newman which one is which?
i'm sad i had to scroll down this far to find this comment. looooove them. 💚❤️
@@Fragrantbeard priya is boring not cool
Sohla is definitely the cool one lol
Not sure what you mean... Sohla is the nerdy one and the cool one.
Gabby showing Brad how to make a paper cone was so wholesome
Molly seems like she would be such a chocolate person whereas Chris doesn't seem like he would be but that's simply not the case
Molly likes white chocolate though. Lol
Chris doesn't like sweet food that much tho
@@mariadora8498 well white chocolate is more vanilla/sweetner and only uses cocoa butter rather than cocoa powder so it has less of a choco flavor, so that makes sense.
Used to hate chocolate as a kid i still am not a fan, its just to bitter and sweet at the same time and like suuuuper strong in flavour and its just not super enjoyable on its own but idm just one piece of chocolate or if its with a biscuit or something else.... though ive always been a fan of white chocokate
Too much sugar kills taste buds with over stimulation. Sugar-fast allows taste bud regrowth/sensitization
I feel like this video was created just to give us Chris tempering chocolate.
Same thoughts 😏
I need to see Priya and Sohla make the dishes they were talking about
Jeanette Jacobs i think both of their dishes were too time consuming
Ikrrr 🙌
I like to think that when Chris and Molly were talking about tempering chocolate, Sola was just in the back thinking "listen to these idiots"
Sohla’s tattoos❤️❤️❤️❤️🥺🥺😍😍
I love how BA edits them into awesome people with their individual shows while at the same time giving us videos like these that humanize them to an endearing degree..
I agree that is the result, but I think they're just trying to pump out more videos by grabbing them for 10-15 minutes.
I think there is a reason Brad isn't full time any more.
I love the grey streak in Claire's hair, it's such an iconic and good look.
omg gaby and brad at the end is like pre-k teacher and her student LOL love it
The Delaney - Christina duo his making my sexuality go on a roller coaster. Merry Christmas to me!
What a mood
Same
oh glad I'm not alone
big bisexual energy
SAMESIES
Oh my god her hands are so much smaller than Brad's. That's adorable
i came here to comment this
Everyone is lowkey chaotic then there’s gabby and brad being a wholesome pair :”)
The fact that I have mastered cracking an egg one handed and Chris hasn’t gives me hope for myself 😂
Molly drying the chocolate is such a mood
AH, honestly first few seconds of delany and christina's clip is giving me life. They both look like they're so eager to listen to each other's story. love! and Delany has such a boy-ish charm to him and he's such a cutie!!!!!
also, is Gabby a Libra?
Chris saying “f*ck yeah” just made my day 😂
4:04 "Claire would like a word"
My thoughts exactly! :D
Molly dancing around with the paper strip is my new favourite thing
I need that as a gif
Claire and gourmet snacks pulled me into BA. First I felt like the others were annoying and didn't always like them. But now I kinda feel like I know the whole gang personally, and I can't help but appreciate the diversity of personalities and their interactions. Although it's still basically reality tv and they are in essence putting on a show, with varying degrees of scripting, it feels so genuine and authentic. Like they are my friends. Even though I'll probably never visit the US, let alone have a job in a skyscraper and living a yuppie healthy nice life like the BA gang, I still can't be cynical about them or their show.
I relate to EVERY single word
Earlier I would only watch gourmet makes and now if it's BA I am sold 😂
Every time priya talks about something i almost get agitated with how excitedly i want to eat it. Like my brain jumps immediately to “HOW DARE I NOT HAVE ONE IN FRONT OF ME NOW!” Without any of the build up. It always sounds so good.
14:51 Molly's always making ambulance noises 😂
sohla i need her to tell us about the tats and also where she shops.
Alex and Christina is the duo I never thought I needed. Give me more!!!!
I’m glad Gaby was able to talk more in this!!
they were all singing claire praises, it was so sweet 🥺 carla and andy with the dumplings literally had to watch a video of her's to do it and alex and christina were talking abt the chips and the editors chimed in that claire did manage the consistency they were talking abt and 🥺 yes she deserves sm recognition and that respect they have for each other's skills is so great
I relate quite strongly with Brad trying to learn what Gaby was teaching
“What are you doing?”
“I don’t know... I just slowly like to suffer and fail.”
Same, Andy 😭
Chris & Molly: "Tempering chocolate is sooooooo hard!"
Sohla (in the background): ...😒🙄
I want more of Chris and Molly together, they make such a fun team
Priya and Sohla are so eloquent I could listen to them talk for ages
