The "hope and dream" thing made me tear up a lil bit . . . Ah immigrants have given so much to this country, the very best of which might be that sandwich. 👍😁
Saul and Onika are my new favorite pairing. Saul dropping the fork mic after tasting his and Onika's dishes was a highlight for me. Also, their little explosion fist bump?! ADORABLE. I will never NOT love Onika personifying her ingredients as well because you know that's where the love comes in, when you talking to your food lol
Chef Saul KILLED this!! Shakshuka eggs on a croque madame with candied bacon? and that coffee dessert! His and Onika’s presence and charisma in the kitchen made me love this episode so much, can’t wait to see more of them!
I loved this! I liked that Saul actually used the ingredients he got instead of omitting/replacing ingredients for "better" alternatives like other chefs have done.
Such a fantastic combo! Their energy matches each other, please do more videos with them🥺🙏🏻 I love the way Onika talks to the ingredients and how Saul keep dropping the fork after tasting those sandwiches!
Saul and Onika are both living rays of sunshine! And Rose is always a delight of course. Onika picking that sandwich up and taking a big ole bite was a whole mood.
This might be the best yet! And I'm already a big fan of this series. Side note: I'm glad that the editors are now showing us a fuller picture of Onika, who is quite delightful. Until now, the '4 levels' videos have tended to show her being sassy and then ... cutting away. Knowing now that she almost always follows the sass with something self-deprecating or otherwise charming makes me really wish they'd let the camera roll a little longer before.
it is helpful, but it was done on this channel before, whether it's grilled cheese or burger, so long you can guess the right time when the cheese is going to stick to the bread, but is not burnt on the other side, it would be perfect.
Honestly Saul knocked it out of the park for this one. He used the same ingredients but made a complete different sandwich to a bacon egg and cheese with sliced tomato and coffee.
This series actually makes a lotta sense. Continue doing this, pleaaaase!!! This allows the chef to be more creative with the techniques he learnt and the home cook is taught how to make new stuff and they learn techniques along the way. Win-win, for both parties, including those drooling at home.
Saul is hands down my absolute favorite chef here on this channel. The man makes me laugh for real out load. He reminds me so much of my uncle cooking at 3am making tortillas and potato flautas. We didn't have that level of ingredients coming up in my hood but when you have a Hispanic kitchen full of simple ingredients, love and humor. Don't nothing lack in flavor baby!! Much respect much love brother
Chefs at this level don’t do recipes. They follow their heart and their creativity. maybe a better spin would be to trade ingredients and then both make their own version plus use the other chefs ingredients to make their own new version and see how they differ from each other.
It might be good for a 1 off. I find the dynamic is so good though, because it gives the pros a chance to exercise their creativity, and it pushes the homecooks into new territory
This is by far the best video I’ve ever seen. Saul is one of the most creatively talented chefs I’ve ever heard of, they are both so charming and disarming and Onika is entertaining and amazing. They each made me laugh. and smile the whole video. Thanks for this gem, Epicurious!
I love them both! And chef Saul is a wizard for turning into basic deli breakfast sandwich ingredient into something you get at a fancy restaurant for breakfast with your potential investors (Or whatever it is they do when get fancy breakfasts instead of normal people getting a deli sandwich on the way to work)
The way she cooked his breakfast sandwich looked freaking Bomb!!!!!! I wanted a bite soooo bad. I bet it was sooo creamy from the avocado and that fried tomato sounded gooooood! Dammm I want a bite of that! The coffee ice cream was some talent right there it looked tasty and sweet! They both did a great job.
i think price per serving would give more information for wiewers is there a possibility to add this into next videos? because the 107$ looked like 5 portions but the 11$ more like breakfast for one
Chef Saul and Onika worked wonders with these ingredients. I love watching dude take simple ingredients and make them into something extraordinary... Definitely useful for folks who cook for large numbers of people on a smaller budget.
Such a dynamic duo!!! I couldn’t miss this episode!!! Wow!!! Their take on each other dishes came out amazing!!! Gotta love how humble they are to each other!!!
13:50 Is the most informative part of this video. Thank you! (The rest is awesome too ofc, ty) Also, Onika , calm down XD Micdrop: 18:48 20:29 = "Rock star!" I love that you let them taste each other's creations. Perfect!
I love Onika and Saul so much, such a great pairing! I really like how chef Saul is only working with the ingredients given, and gets creative. Loved this!
I have to say Onika is one of my faves. I love her attitude and I think she would be so much fun to cook with. I'm so glad they are able to try each others again.
Wow! One of the best ones ever (maybe not, but I really enjoyed it). Onika has such a great personality (and did a great job--though knife skills made me a little nervous--otherwise she was good) and Saul's take was just so inventive--shashuka croque montiel with coffee granita--I mean who does this? Saul is so much fun to watch--and love how supportive he is to Onika.
I really appreciate this episode. I'm so glad Saul didn't add any fancy ingredients to the mix. He just worked with the same simple basic ingredients that we all have access to and proved that you can really transform food in a million different ways and THAT to me is the art of cooking.
These two together are so well balance and separate are so fantastic. This was the most entertaining episode strictly because of their personalities and good energy.
@@jdrf119115637 i do agree that it is a bit extra but my dad will throw in a bit of sugar in the arepa masa even if the arepa is a savoury one.. he’ll also use milk instead of water 😂 He goes on in for fried sweet arepas 😂
Onika is perfect for this! Btw this type of videos are my favorite on Epicurious, wish you had much more of them! Create them more often please, I would watch even daily!
Epicurious really has a nice lineup of all stars. Frank, Emily, Onika, Saul, the sweet grilled cheese guy, Lorenzo, the level 3 chef that puts rum in everything, Steven, John. And all the other chefs we have seen sometimes
Saul's and Onika's energy combined at the end made me smile so wide
Especially when Saul called Onika a rockstar so Onika turned to the camera and whispered to us, “I’m a rockstar”
wow
They were both so great!
You look like a Kpop star
@@audreyhogan8285 I wonder why
I love chef Saul, he’s so humble. Love when he said he came to this country with hope and dreams. His personality is amazing!
The two crucial ingredients to survive in a world full of ignorance
" and here I am. Making millions" and then laughing at his own joke lol
@@alaorilla9716 he said “here I am making videos” not millions
The "hope and dream" thing made me tear up a lil bit . . . Ah immigrants have given so much to this country, the very best of which might be that sandwich. 👍😁
Is it just me who is extremely happy that they can now taste each other's food?
It is so great! Missed that with COVID
I like when other people cook for me, if they know how.
This is such a big part of the show that I really missed. Glad they can do it again because looking at selfies of the food just ain't the same.
nope you're not alone 😂
Yea, the whole video call craziness at the end never sat right
Saul and Onika are my new favorite pairing. Saul dropping the fork mic after tasting his and Onika's dishes was a highlight for me. Also, their little explosion fist bump?! ADORABLE.

I love Saul's energy. And on top of it his accent is just... Perfect.
Did he just say it’s never to early?
Is he Mexican? Man I love Mexicans
yesss
@@arlandmv4053 yes
his accsent is amazing
Omg this was so cute. This is literally favorite chef. Everyone is nice. BUT he's so genuinely down to earth!!!!! Love it!
Chef Saul KILLED this!! Shakshuka eggs on a croque madame with candied bacon? and that coffee dessert! His and Onika’s presence and charisma in the kitchen made me love this episode so much, can’t wait to see more of them!
You said it p e r f e c t l y!
Yup! They are two of my favorites!
YES YES YES!! I could not have said it better
I just love Onika's energy, she had me smiling from start to finish
I feel like Saul had a backup plan to become a comedian if he even failed to become a chef.
I feel like he became both
Plot twist: the chef was the backup plan
10:34 🤎🤎🤌
Yes, it is
He can be both....coz he seems like an amazing chef.
Saul: “This breakfast sandwich WAS going to be delicious but… you know…”
Man is hilarious 💀😂
"What's better than chees? More cheese!" and "It's never too early." are the words I will start to live by from now on.
I'm french and I approve this comment !
@@tomf3150 as a non-french, I feel validated. 😅
Nikocado avocado approves 👍
I loved this! I liked that Saul actually used the ingredients he got instead of omitting/replacing ingredients for "better" alternatives like other chefs have done.
Saul making that coffee granita was the most unexpected thing. Props to him for trying to whip that half and half
Onika's narration of the food is seriously amazing. Lol she is so funny
I love how the chefs never look down on the simple ingredients they are given, but takes it as a challenge to make the meal even better.
Well that’s kinda the point isn’t it 🤣
even if thats what they actually think...nobody would be stupid enough to say that outloud for the entire internet to see
A chef looking down on simple ingredients isn't a real chef anyway xD
Saul was given barely two slices of bread and some cheese and he came up with an amazing sandwich AND a dessert.
onika is such a good addition to the show She's funny and charismatic
You mean annoying*
And so pretty 😍
@TICTAC MAN literally- she makes people smile when the world is a bit tough... they both really made me.smile today
@@TheSuperhoden damn looking at your comments all you do is complain.
And she has the perfect balance between being overwhelmed and being positive!
As a brit, who has never had the experience of proper authentic Mexican cuisine, this chef.... I need to eat your food ASAP. Wowwww
“you see them dancing? they’re dancing because they’re happy” OMG
That was truly my favorite part
Saúl did it again. That Croque Montiel with amazing Huevos Amantricianos was OMG. That's why he is my fav chef of all Epicurious
Muchas gracias ☺️ 😊😊😊😊
I ADORE Onika's personality she is so proud of herself and I am HERE FOR IT
She needs her own show.
Yeah agreed, she's so funny!
Yeah that confidence girl!! 😩 You go girll!
She was kinda annoying
Right!! her attitude is so infectious...how can someone be so easily likeable?
Such a fantastic combo! Their energy matches each other, please do more videos with them🥺🙏🏻
I love the way Onika talks to the ingredients and how Saul keep dropping the fork after tasting those sandwiches!

These two go well together - would like to see more pairings of Onika and Chef Saul please :)
Me tooo!!! I love them both, I need to see them in more videos together😍😍
These two would be the bomb cooking show! I think their personalities would Work great together. I enjoyed watching this❤️
I love how excited Saul is about his cooking
I want to report you for spelling “excited” that way
@@bhestonmusic Im sorryy! xD
i picked this video because i’m in LOVE with chef Saul but I just fell even more in like with Onika😭😭 Their energies are just awesome
The cheese trick that Saul taught is actually really helpful. I'm glad he showed it to us in the Burrito video.
it is helpful, but it was done on this channel before, whether it's grilled cheese or burger, so long you can guess the right time when the cheese is going to stick to the bread, but is not burnt on the other side, it would be perfect.
I do it after seeing it months ago and am shocked how much fat the cheese solids swim in once melted. I use a paper towel to absorb the fat in pan.
@@carmenneumann9479
you shouldn't melt it, just make it gooey and sticky enough to stick to the bread.
@@carmenneumann9479 The way I did it the first time, I just watched step by step from the burrito video when Saul did it, and it worked out.
@@belalabusultan5911 Oh I never knew that this was done before. I just know he did it in the Burrito video.
Best moment, "It's happening! I can see the light!" Pure joy while making whipped cream
Saul cutting the edges off the bread off like he does for his kids 🥺🥺🥺
I'd love to be his kid 🥺
He likes like a warm, wholesome father
I came here to comment that! So wholesome!
TEARSSSS😭😭🥺💕🧍🏾♀️
Saul is just the most educational and informative person ever. He says the things I’m thinking and wondering, and makes life so much better!!!!
Honestly Saul knocked it out of the park for this one. He used the same ingredients but made a complete different sandwich to a bacon egg and cheese with sliced tomato and coffee.

Oh my Saul...
'I came to this country with two things... Hope and Dreams. Here I am making videos.'
Go chef!!! 👏🏽
The American Dream!
I misheard him and thought he said "here I'm making millions" and I was like GOOD FOR YOU CHEF! WOO GO SAÚL GO
10:34 🤧💖
Strictly speaking since the dreams are in plural that would be more than two things... But still GO CHEF!!!! 👏🏽
@@MrAranton ... do you know that he is not native English speaker right?
Can this woman PLEASE give me a beginners course in cooking? I love her!!! 😭😭😭
"We do this in front of camera where 1000 people can see you"- sir your at 122k in less than a day. I love his humor !
And a whole 1 million views in a few months
Yessss finally a chef that doesn't use other ingredients from their kitchen. Saul is are savior.
Nobody:
Chef Saul: *Fork drop*

What's better than Chef Saul? More Chef Saul!
I really hope we can see a battle between Saul and Frank. That would be epic!
SHOKUGEKI !
I agree
I love them. I feel like they both have such big personalities but it feels so authentic. I love it.
Chef Saul is so kind watching him feels like a cosy hug
This guy needs a show just for himself !!! Grade A PERSONALITY. LOVED THIS ONE. BEST ONE IVE SEEN SO FAR
If I used the pro chefs ingredients and recipe to make my breakfast, by the time I finish it , it would be time for lunch
are you an amateur? I would finish it by breakfast.... of the next day :P
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@belalabusultan5911 Same😆
@@belalabusultan5911 🤣🤣👌
I want more of this pairing... They're sooo hilarious, I just can't stop laughing 😂
“Layers of love” you just know Saul’s food is amazing
Nice job Onika!!! Loved watching you!
I love Onika‘s energy, like go girl give us EVERYTHING
You should make a video like this one, but where two chefs swap recipes! Like Saúl x Frank
Underrated comment
YES

oh my god i have been wanting a video like this for FOREVER
It might be good for a 1 off. I find the dynamic is so good though, because it gives the pros a chance to exercise their creativity, and it pushes the homecooks into new territory
Seeing Chef Sauls personality makes me believe there are still good people on this earth. The definition of a beautiful soul
Onika is so funny, they're both very charismatic people. Chef Saul is the winner of my heart
I love that Raul cuts the edges of the rolls off to please his daughters. ❤️
I love Onika, she’s so lively!! Saul I love you too!! Talking about he cuts the ends off for his daughters…adorable!
they are both SO FUN to watch! Please more of this duo!
"What's up with these eggs, Why are they green"
omg i love her
This is by far my favorite duo from this series, they’re both hilarious!
I do love how this channel finds such likeable people for its videos. Both Onika and Saul were great this episode.
Onika’s colorful descriptions and Sauls humor were a joy to watch . Love them both 💕

I was really proud of Onika!! She did really well and never knew how to make arepas. I give her props 👏
Saul and Onika’s energy is unmatched, nothing but positivity. Put a big smile on my face!
Saul is the poster child for the American dream. We are forever better as a nation because of people like Saul.
The American dream is fake and it would be an insult to anyone to become the poster child for that

Saul in the evening be like: yeah it's time to start making breakfast
Chef Saul made my day when he said, "Whats better than cheese? More cheese." So freaking true Chef
i think price per serving would give more information for wiewers is there a possibility to add this into next videos? because the 107$ looked like 5 portions but the 11$ more like breakfast for one
And they’re not using like the entire ingredient either only some bacon, beer eggs
Agreed. I think including both prices would be really informative
Both prices would be drastically lower if they accounted for the amount you can make.
Yeah. A total ingredients cost, and also a cost per serving would be awesome.
Chef Saul and Onika worked wonders with these ingredients. I love watching dude take simple ingredients and make them into something extraordinary... Definitely useful for folks who cook for large numbers of people on a smaller budget.
Saul and Onika! Two of my faves! Yay!
Absolutely love Onika, but her not tucking in her fingers while she was chopping the tomatoes had me on my toes! 😱
Love everything about her except her tomato cutting technique. I was terrified.

He is an amazing chef wow!
I adored this lady’s personality.💓
This has been my fav so far.
Onika's party metaphor for the sauce is hilarious and on point hhhh
The two of them together … BEST EVER!!
I love Onika, she so full of life... I think we want her in the show more often ❤️ 🙂.....
These two together are so well balance and separate are so fantastic. This was the most entertaining episode strictly because of their personalities and good energy.
