Salut,
Alex - Навчання та стиль
Next week: Alex buys a cow to do butter by himself
buys? I bet he's gonna try to make out out of wood and a drill 😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣 that’s expected ! Lmao
@@FiXato At least he'll make one of those insamination dummies.
Alex genetically engineers a cow
alex makes grass for cow feed
Where's the "spread it like butter" gone when you most need it !?
Same! When he said "spread it all over social media"... I was going: LIKE? LIKE WHAT ALEX?
the butter was implicit, because of the video topic :)
Exactly what I thought! An episode about butter, and the catchphrase whiffs! Opportunity missed.
He hasn't said "Spread it like butter" in a few episodes now......
Yeah, but we all heard it in our heads... no need to actually say it, almost might diminish the impact if he did...
This is why I watch Alex. Love this, these series, this passion Alex has! Thank you for making youtube to a better place. This content is what I want to have!
A butter* place. Ok I’m out.
Am I the only one who thinks he will end with his own farm and factory?
@WILLIAM CHAN supporter of the channel
Why have you removed the "French Guy Cooking" part of your UA-cam name?
Probably because it is too long. Have you talked with anyone about the channel. It's quite a mouthful. Also he is almost at a million so he is searchable even just with 'Alex'
>so he is searchable even just with 'Alex'
Not at all. Try it yourself in an incognito window. Scroll past all of Alex Jones' posts, all of Alex Trebec's (especially now) A whole shit ton of Soundcloud """artists""" and Roblox streamers and see how far you have to scroll to find him.
@@Psianth Yeah, he should at least rename it "Alex cooking"
@@Psianth You can also find him by typing in "french cooking".
'French-guy Cooking" sounds better tho🤔
After all these years..."ALEX" is of course gooood, but wish you kept "French Guy Cooking" somewhere, nearby!
Still is the url of the channel 😘
@@FrenchGuyCooking the emoji made your accent come through the text. Well done.
Alex it makes it harder for new viewers to find your videos when they type alex into the search
lmao i'm from france and i'm wondering why there is no music in the background when i open some butter
C'mon, try closing your eyes!
Mdrr same for me
It looked so good it made my mouth water. I almost think it should have been porn music.
Being in from France is not enough. Are you opening *that* very special butter from *that butter maker* out in a green and peaceful meadow under sunny blue skies...opening it slowly so that you are fully present to admire the butter's golden color, its smoothness and creaminess as you gather some on your butter knife and spread it on a fresh baguette? If not, you'll never hear that angelic music swirling around you, the music that says: "You are about to taste something heavenly...." 😉
@@moonwalk1031 damn bro you should write poetry 👌
That slicing of the butter was AMAZINGLY shot!!!
Oh no. You changed your name. Almost missed your video by that change.
Alex the French cook is far more iconic. And it attracted me to the channel.
Algorithim's gonna kick his ass for a while because of the change, and it'd kick it again if they change it back too.
Who is this Alex ? There’s so many alexes but just one Alex French guy!
FalconEagle it literally never was alex the french cook lol
Vercci I have no idea what he was thinking, Its gonna affect viewership if he keeps it as alex. How are people gonna find this channel, by typing alex? Lol
Legit, when you were ripping the bread and spreading the butter....that hit me in my soul.
Ohhhhhh, YES! A fresh baguette with fresh butter. The crunchy exterior is the perfect antagonist to the bready cloud like interior. With butter, it moistens it just enough to accentuate the experience. Yes, I like bread.
this guy is filming butter like it's one of the 7 world wonders
I'll miss the French guy.
RIP.
Goodluck Alex.
Pourquoi the name change? We loved the French Guy cooking? It fitted great by your cookbook as well
Maybe because from abroad it was a pleonasm, "french" and "cooking" but all french aren't cooking at all !
@@Daakyne What part of "Alex, French guy cooking" is redundant? It's not a pleonasm.
Maybe he wants to branch out from more than just cooking in the future?? Just a guess
ALEX! I truly hope you read this. The Next Series you should do.... Is about a Decadent, Complicated, yet simplistic dessert all French should know..... And that.... Is Creme Brulee.
Either that, OR Eggs Benedict and Different variations of it!
Not too much of a challenge.
7:40 spread it *like butter*, fixed it for you
I have been subscribed to Alex since 19k and I’m feel so proud to see him grow! This series is awesome, Alex, you are awesome! Keep up the good work!
I am not sure how I got to this channel, but the production quality is amazing
I've been watching you for a couple years now and I never get tired of your content. I look forward to the next one! Great job, Alex. magnifique!
Hi Alex,
Unapologetically, tears were rolling down my cheek as you sat in the field and consumed that beautiful bread and magnificent butter.
Poetry.
Take butter for granted?
Only a heathen would!
Thanks so much for this lovely video Alex.
Its these types of videos that we need more of. Its not just about the final product, sometimes its very much about where each individual piece comes from, and what sets certain ingredients apart from others. Quality requires time, effort, thoughtfulness, and the desire to put in the best you can get. Keep up the fantastic work Alex, love learning from you.
I have spent practically all the holidays of my childhood in Poitou-Charentes (to be more specific Charente-Maritime). I've always liked it out there.
When I go back in late this summer, I will probably eat my croissant with a slightly higher enjoyment of a morning ;-)
Alex, your videos just get better and better! Love your content and love the cinematography! Thank you!
props to the sonoplasty in this video, the bread/butter part is so immersive with the ambient sounds, you killed, Alex!!
Thank you for taking the time to make your videos. I enjoy watching them so much! It is so nice to see your passion for food and the dedication you have for perfection. I especially enjoy the "road trips" you share with us. It makes the whole story more engaging. Keep up the good work!
I neeeeeed more than 1 episode a week Alex! I've watched everything and the anticipation from one video to the next is insane!
It's just admirable to dedicate 1000% of your time to one thing! THANK YOU for these wonderful inspiring videos! Looking at the little things like a croissant just makes you crazy happy!
I’ve been waiting watching your older videos this week. Now I WANT this butter!
Been waiting for this all week!!!!!
bread and butter were never this beautiful. brought tears to my eyes. amazing
Fantastic video, makes me want to move to the French countryside. I like your thorough coverage of a topic - you try it yourself, you learn from professionals, you build a machine, you visit the farm and processing plant. Really great way to inform people about food!
Je suis tout simplement choquée au fait que Alex soit venu dans notre petite campagne du 79
Et tout ça à cause d'un croissant fait à Paris.
Magique
Surprising how the quality of your videos has been rising. Great work Alex!
I'm really enjoying this croissant series. Merci pour les vidéos Alex!
At 5:57 begins pure joy one can only have in France. So delightful!
Your the man, Alex! So glad I found you!
I love the series videos! It’s like we’re all learning with you
Quality content. Its not just a video its your love for the food that shows in there videos. Thanks for sharing Alex. You are wonderful.
What a great series. Keep these videos coming. Good quality butter makes everything better. Cheers, Alex!
I usually have trouble understanding La Langue Français, but I found Daniel and you to be speaking very clearly in this video. Merci Monsieur.
Ah Alex, man! you deserve way more likes and subscribers. Think you are going places! I like your series... I like how you take a problem, look at it at every direction, try to solve it yourself. Love your story telling. I can only imagine how is it for you to film everything yourself. Very well done. When you are back to London, I'd love to go for a coffee and meet you in person!
Your channel is the strange and subtle marriage of food personality and engineering I've needed. UA-cam has finely done something right by recommending you to me!
Haven't watched your videos in a year. When did your production value get SO GOOD? Great job Alex!
Awesome. I grew up working summers on my uncle's dairy farm. It is great seeing where your food comes from isn't it? Really enjoying your croissant quest.
Never thought i could be entertained by a guy making croissants through multiple videos but here i am and i want more love u
episodes like this should be an hour long. lovely work.
That butter spreading scene was ridiculous! I love it!
Another fantastic episode Alex. Bravo!
You always do justice to these products. Art.
HOW, just HOW do you literally make something so mundane as "buttering your bread" look so goddamn good. Your camera and editing skills keep amazing me every time i see a closeup and slomo of your food it amazes me.
I have never been more jealous of a bite of food someone has eaten on a UA-cam video than you eating that lovely butter on a fresh baguette in that beautiful location.
Nothing beats a fresh french baguette and good butter!
I LOVE butter! I was drooling while I watched you pulling the bread apart and running your knife over the butter! I would love to try that butter on lightly toasted Italian panettone!
I love it. The simplest of things. Putting butter on bread and you make it so beautiful. I love it I love it I love it!!!!!!!
Breaking the bread. Opening the butter. The slowmo shots. The music. everything is I love all of it. How do you do it. I want to know. I want to know how to capture something so beautiful from something so simple.
Really enjoying the croissant series!
So much fun! I love butter! Thank you Alex!
This episode made me cry tears of joy!
Dude. People almost REFUSE to understand that less really is more. Simple quality ingredients are always the absolute best, always, always, always. That butter looked unbelievably incredible. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Noooo, u changed your name to Alex
the artistry in this is quite spectacular
All your videos have such beautiful cinematography
Another great video. Alex wherever you wanna take your channel, I support you.
Your videos today are so professionally made
Man, the cinematography in this video is amazing. You sure stepped up your game.
Alex rocks the OG butter tip.
Nice episode Alex! Congratulations turning your video series into a French food documentary channel. BTW I do make bread and croissants by myself and love the great taste of French butter.
The cinematography for that butter spread was unreal
Very nice, thank you for sharing, and thanks for the incentive. Nothing beats homemade bread and pasta, I just haven't moved past simple yeast breads to the more complex baguettes and croissants that require multiple manipulations. Such a time investment, but watching your videos provides encouragement.
Man, I really love what you're doing. We feel you are a very sensitive and passionate person, which personally deeply moves me! Just fucking keep on and stay that true and loving french mate for eeeeeever ❤
Cheers from Switzerland
Alex, you are a fantastic creator and I guess human being. Please stay that way. I love your videos very very much. Thanks!
Salut Alex ! Merci de faire découvrir notre beau pays et ses bons produits ! Vive... La culture gastronomique française ! (sans médire des autres)
I love your channel! And you are one of the coolest guy here on UA-cam!
Thanks Alex you do everything just right.
This film was like a poem. Great job Alex
I am so in love with this channel.
I cried when you described the butter with the bread. Will go to France for butter and croissants 🥐
Best produced video you've made so far.
Loving this series!
Amazing edit, amazing shots. Your best shot video so far :)
Oh yes! I was hoping you'd go to the butter place! This is a great channel!
That’s all??? I want a longer video!!! Damnit! That was so peaceful!
Makes the mouth water. Nothing like the site of fresh bread and butter.
Can never get enough of freaking croissants from France!! You make me miss visiting France and eating all the bread man!
your content quality drastically improved.Nice! So interesting but I would've loved some more shots from inside the butter factory.
Very cool Alex! Thanks for diving into the butter quality in croissants, it's very important, And tasty! ;)
Super vidéo ! C'est merveilleux que tu fasses decouvrir les produits français de qualité au monde , tu merites tout le meilleur!
I love those close up shots :)
As a Wisconsinite, I have to appreciate any video about butter.
I love this series
5:50 as a french expatriate in japan, it hurts a lot... I WANT MY BREAD AND CROISSANTS
There is no way the Japanese havent made there own ultra premium butter, thats what they do they improve on other cultures ideas
Have you been to this shop? "Pan de Kiran Japan" on Instagram?
Maybe this is sacrilege to you. But Japan is where I discovered viennoiserrie. Every train station seemed to have a little bakery. Unless I was stuffed I had to grab an escargot de raisins or a choclatine.
@@crashoverride93637 Actually there is a big import problem with butter in Japan (think new Zealand and Japan are still bickering about it), and domestic production is severely limited to mostly Hokkaido. On top of that, butter is not really a big thing in Asia.
Bread on it self as we know it in Europe is nearly nonexistent in Japan. If you talk about bread, the avrage Japanese thinks about stuff that an European would call pastry or cake.
Powxa Asians make delicious tasty breads including croissants and butter. There is absolutely no way you would miss it living in Japan. If true, I don't know what you are doing there.
God bless you Alex, your work is great and i really loved the corrisant series and all of your work but the corrisant especially, best wishes and keep going 👍💪👌👏👏👏
And i really wanna know if there's another episode in the series
Lescure is all I can get here, but I'm happy that it's on the list because it's my favourite butter!
yess more croissant series
This is legit the best cooking channel
Good butter on good, fresh, bread is a pleasure, I grew up in Bavaria and now live in the UK, every time I go home to visit my parents one of the things I want first is a sourdough bread with butter, it might not be fancy, but damn it tastes good.
This just butters my croissant
That is indeed the best butter money can buy. It's fat content is 80%. Once I used it, I became addicted to it. It's the most awesome butter ever!
Thanks for your info, Alex!
Another great video! From you Alex, thank you
You are a Genius! Love your videos!
