I mean he missed a lot of the 15 ingredients at that point so he was right. It was too short of a list

"Have I mentioned my favorite film is Top Gun?"
"I'm just getting this for the gram."

'You thought we put Claire "Half-Sour" Saffiz through the ringer, wait till you see what we did to Chris Morocco: The Series'
In a way though the whole process is pretty effective in showing what ingredients are essential to the recipes and what ingredients are barely discernible in the final flavor and therefore can probably be left out or substituted. I mean, if our super taster Chris Morocco can't even tell the ingredient is in there, do we really even need it? 🤔Chris even said in this episode "If you can't taste it, what's the point?"
"Cheddar?"
"Do you have a cold?"

My thoughts exactly I love carla
Biggest insult Chris could ever get. 😂😂😂
I love Carla omg
i love cheddar!
"they look pretty identical, mine smells like weed though." so yeah Carla had her savage day^^
I have a lot of respect for chris killing the lobster before boiling it.
I waterboard lobsters before boiling them
Robert Williamson me too
my mum taught my that crustaceans like lobster and crabs can't really perceive the heat so it would actually more "nice" to put them in the boiling water without stabbing them in the brain.... but I am not sure, so everyone should do it like how they are comfortable with it ^^
@@ConniJo not sure they have a brain and not sure they can't perceive heat
Otherwise they would just chill in the boiling water
@@Eniramoi they can't feel the pain of heat like we do but their proteins would still denature and they would still die (much like humans with a fever over 105 degrees)
Chris: let's give it a little tasty taste

He also said nicety-nice. Whatever Brad has is contagious

there should be an april fools special or something where molly, carla, chris and claire all switch shows
Bilan this is GENIUS!
That's gold!
As a person whose birthday is on April Fools, this would be the best gift.
Add in Brad and we've got the chaotic crossover of our dreams. 😂
What's Molly's show?
You need to trick Chris into recreating one of his own recipes in a future video! I think it would be funny to see if he could figure it out.
Robbie Pettys-Baker yes!
Yesssss
Awesome idea, yes! Watch him guess the wrong ingredient by overthinking, again.
I feel like he'd realise eventually
I feel like he would get that too fast and it wouldnt be much of a challenge. If he gets it it wont air, but if he fucks it up tho...
"projecting my culinary baggage" is an amazing way of saying "making it taste better"
no, i don't think that's what he means at all. it simply means, "i know that these usually go together, but i shouldn't go off of what i know, i should go off of what i taste."
"Are they just playing the f?$%ing long game on me?"
**editor uses actual ingredient as censor bar**
MrTingles my favorite part!
They say that a good editor isn't noticed, but I'd say BA's editor is the exception to that rule.
Time stamp?

It’s so frustrating when Chris is so close but just picks the wrong option
Gia S. Right? Though I love it when they frame it in the video, like him totally missing the crackers across the aisle. So frustrating, yet so funny.
ikr! you just want to shout to him that he's so close, but just tweak it a bit
I'm just too amazed with how close he gets to be worried about the precise details he misses. Sure it'd be great if he could get it perfectly every time, but then it'd be taken for granted and I think the episodes would lose some of their magic.
Living in a city like New Yak can screw up your pallet and taste. The funk becomes a major component in everything you cook.
Hey he still does better than I can imagine anyone else other than snoop dog doing.
Most of BA: "I can't do this, I'm not Chris Morocco!"
Chris: "I'm not Claire!"
Claire: "Yeah I wanna die."
Lmao so accurate
Poor Claire tbh
🤲 pray for claire
Nothing wrong with her shes just going through a little existential crisis
Who is this Claire everyone keeps mentioning?
Beatrice 577 Claire Saffitz, host of Gourmet Makes by Bon Appétit. She's one of the more popular test kitchen cooks to get her own show on the RUclips channel and TV app.

“For appearance these are almost identical... 80%!"
Geez... I seriously thought she was going to give around a 95% for appearance.
someone's gotta humble him
@@tharinipeiris76 he does get humbled lol, but when you tell him that they look almost identical, one would assume that warrants better than a B-
If you took a test and the score was “most perfect,” you would most likely think mid to high 90’s, right? Not an 80
“These are almost identical, definitely 80”
My man was robbed
I'd rather Not completely agree that Carla went low on this one. Should have been 85 minimum
totally
When she said it I was thinking it was like 95% but then she brought up the bread which brought it down to a 90% minimum in my mind but then she popped out the 80%...
Yes. Appearance should be at 95. They already discounted the crumbs on ingredients and appearance was spot on
This is the comment I came here for, 90 at LEAST, wth is she talking about
I hope Chris enjoys recreating these because I feel like he's slowly going down the path of insanity that Claire is going through with Gourmet Makes.
I think Chris's series is better because there is a hard stop on day 2. Claire has to keep going until she nails it, her only out is victory. That's the problem with gourmet makes.
But the descent into madness is one of the best parts
I would say at least claire can see what she's trying to make and even look at ingredients and even how it's made, but considering it still gives her such a hard time I think it really illustrates just how difficult it can be to recreate factory produced thing with just what you'd have in a typical kitchen.
@@TheLZempir3 no. They limit it to 4 days. She has a limit... she just doesn't like that it usually takes her past day 2.
@@TheLZempir3 There has been a couple times where Claire said "close enough".
Carla: "They look amazingly similar."
Also Carla: 80%
Yes, I couldn't understand that.
Came here to say the exact thing!
I swear I came looking cause they look almost identically easily at least a 90
"what, that its a pisces?" chris is way funnier than anyone gives him credit for
Now, Im just saying, Im sure Chris is hilarious, but that aside; Unless you dont believe in astrology. Which is pseudoscience. Then you might not think its all that funny or perhaps have a more mature standard of humor in the midst of a virus that is totally not contained, not a hoax, and totally a very real problem we could have taken care of by simply following protocol and wearing masks. Over 200,000 deaths later. I refer to a Carl Sagan quote prophesying accurately Americas future;
"I have a foreboding of an America in my children's or grandchildren's time -- when the United States is a service and information economy; when nearly all the manufacturing industries have slipped away to other countries; when awesome technological powers are in the hands of a very few, and no one representing the public interest can even grasp the issues; when the people have lost the ability to set their own agendas or knowledgeably question those in authority; when, clutching our crystals and nervously consulting our horoscopes, our critical faculties in decline, unable to distinguish between what feels good and what's true, we slide, almost without noticing, back into superstition and darkness...The dumbing down of American is most evident in the slow decay of substantive content in the enormously influential media, the 30 second sound bites (now down to 10 seconds or less), lowest common denominator programming, credulous presentations on pseudoscience and superstition, but especially a kind of celebration of ignorance”
― Carl Sagan, The Demon-Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Dark "
Seems to me all joking aside this is where we are today. So with that all being said. Lets vote this November and bring science and sanity back & make America smart again. Astrology? Never heard of it. Nice cooking video. Biden/Harris 2020!!

The world needs Chris and Delaney playing “what alcohol is this”
I would love to see them get tipsy!😂😂😂
YES
I feel like you'd want Carla there, too.
After the 4th one they would be done. It would be great.
It's already coming soon for sure
"I'm not Claire I'm not going to stand here making bread crumbs all day" ooooh shots fired! XD
Best line. Chris, the Demon of the Kitchen admits even his overwhelming power cannot always match The Saint of Gourmet Makes.
🤣😂 pew, pew, pew
Lol. Ironic since all he needed to was smash up Rtiz crackers. I swear Ritz crackers make for some of the best bread crumbs. Anytime I use them with fried chicken, people always compliment it.
Chris Morocco Shade King of BA
Not really a "shot" though... or shade of any kind lol. I see it as more like his acknowledgement and respect for her dedication and perseverance on Gourmet Makes, and the fact that he doesn't have the motivation to perfect it in the way that that she has a propensity to.
"I'm not Claire I'm not gonna spend all day making bread crumbs." redoes the bread crumbs like 5 times
27:15 Leaky test version gets a 90% in appearance.
35:53 Virtually identical-looking final version gets an 80% in appearance.
🤨
I feel like the blender is to Chris what the dehydrator is to Claire.
As the Yeti Cooler is to Brad
As sous vide is to Amiel...?
As eating is for delaney because all he does in his shows is eat
That's perfect
Carla: they look almost identical.
Carla: appearance 80%
Me: 🤔?
Chefs are pretty strict
Ahalya Vaitheeswaran chefs are also stupid at times. Should have been at least 90%
I know, but on the other hand I feel like 95% for technique was pretty high...
yeah wtf and then she asks if he was expecting lower lol they look exactly the same
@@ahalyavaitheeswaran6410 some chefs. Chefs are people and people vary...
When Chris starting quoting Snoop I was very shocked
Also, Se7en??
Her: Your appearance is almost identical, 80%
Your taste is pretty off and its noticeable, 80%
Me: ??wat??
ikr? the technique should be way lower than 95% and the appearance should be 95% instead of 80%

@@rooditooti4388 true
To be fair Cheeese is one of the hardest things to figure out when you can't see it. I mean some are obvious, but there's so many freaking types of cheeses. And here they mixed 2 cheeses which makes it even harder to tell.
@@OctoberSkys *reminisces the nacho episode*

"They look identical." "I'm feeling 80% on appearance." Uhh wat? Give the man the 95% he deserves.
I feel like she should've swapped the 80% she gave on appearance with the too-high 95% she gave on technique.
Or at least 90%!

"Am I underthinking it? Overthinking it?"
Chris, that answer is *always* "overthinking"...
I think he was underthinking in this case, lol. He never tries just a spoonful of the entire thing to get a whole bite and see if he can detect anything else. He always just takes little nibbles off the top. I swear he misses more stuff that way and maybe could've detected the other cheese, lol

No, appearance was 95%. You can't say identical and then give that score.
YES EXACTLY

the scoring I don’t care that much for... it’s a series of how close can Chris steal someone’s recipe just by using his sense of taste and smell
@@karu6111 Why would you use the word "steal", it's not like they're publishing Chris' new AMAZING recipe in the magazine, he's replicating it. I don't understand why you would say "steal" of all words.
@@beardeddragonlover8889 it's a lighthearted statement of how Chris is so good at this. I'm not implying that he literally steals recipes.
Sorry, Carla. That apprearance score is total BS
The wrong kind of breadcrumb is not worth 20%
When you talk about appearance, wrong kind shouldn't even matter if it looks the same.
Yeah! I thought they looked almost identical except that the breadcrumbs were slightly larger
That part made me irrationally mad 😅
They're literally the outer layer. If the inside was completely wrong and the appearance was identical it would've been 100%. It's an arbitrary test anyway.
Carla: “Oh my god they look identical!”
Also Carla: “You used the wrong kind of breadcrumb, so I'll give you an 80% on appearance.”

@@ecenbt I agree.
I agree, appearance was at the very least a 90....of course technique is 95, he is a professional chef after all...
I feel like they should tell him his overall percentage after the first try
It'll be funny to see his reaction because he's always confident and worried about the wrong categories 😅
My thought exactly while watching the video. So at least he knows where to improve/change.
I'm glad they don't because I think it would sway his opinion a bit too much. I like him not knowing and being confident that first day about an incorrect ingredient but really coming in hard day 2 to correct. Nothing would be gained and he wouldnt challenge himself as much
@@realdex I think they want to avoid leading him.
Regardless of the scores they give him, it amazes me how close he is.
they should try it for one episode because i think knowing the overall percentage might throw him off and make him doubt the things that are already accurate.

"Snoop Dogg's Lobster Thermidor" is probably the most unexpected combination of words I could have ever imagined.
Snoop has some recipes that are totally worth looking up on Google. I've made his mashed potatoes multiple times and they are great.
His fried chicken is woooooah multiple people have did videos on it and its that good.
Snoop Dogg perpetually has the munchies so of course he's going to teach himself how to cure the munchies in style.

"Just gonna give it a little tasty-taste here."
I LOVE that the BA kitchen is picking up what Brad is putting down, because I've definitely adopted some Bradisms into my vocab.
Everyone thinks that Cheese is Chris's biggest enemy, but I would argue it's green onions/scallions because they are the thing he misses every time they're on something.

They should be given easier series.
Consider - Brad and Carla do things they already know how to do/are doing.

“what f*ckin alcohol is this?”
next test kitchen talks, anybody?
For context on how hard this is, maybe an episode where there's a challenger who tries to do the same thing?
I find it quite unfair when Chris detects an ingredient but its in the "sauce" instead of the "toppings" ... like the man is doing this blindfolded. He is getting the raw ingredients right and I think that matters more than being able to magically distinguish whether it's in the toppings or sauce when they are all mixed together. Alas, its an arbitrary grading system, I'm still blown away with his accuracy. I'm way to indecisive to pull anything like this off
When I watched the first couple episodes, I thought about this and it irked me too. Because as you say, the ingredients are mashed up and it's almost impossible to distinguish if it's in the topping or sauce, whatever. However, the ingredients are indicators of how the dish was assembled, so to compensate I think the the editors should highlight the ingredient in green, but add an X to indicate it's in the wrong part.
Carla's grading here is inconsistent. "The appearance is almost identical - 80%. The gruyere makes for a big taste differential - 80%."
@@christinehottinger5791 "It has a little something for everyone"
@@Eaode the dish makes you *feel* like a lobster
yeah but when he says 28:41 "black pepper going only in the breadcrumbs not in the sauce" its intentional and wrong. so he must face judgement.

love his various levels of upset
And sizzling breadcrumbs are "very pleasing"
And Madeira is "a little bit upsetting"
This is a great comment
Chris conspiring about the sourdough baguette is me at 3 am overthinking to my death and I don’t feel as alone anymore
Can we take the time to appreciate the fact that Chris so easily quoted a Snoop Dogg lyric... makes me like him even more
No-one:
Chris: B L E N D E R P A R M
Then he describes it so eloquently:
You cut medium size chunks of Parmigiano Reggiano, give them each a kiss and place them in the blender. Choose the button which has the same aura matching yours, and blend it until the parm becomes like grains of sand on the beaches of the Figi Islands. Run it through your fingers singing Enya. Then you can proceed to sprinkle it over your spaghettios like a beautiful Italian unicorn.
*It's just parm in the blender, dog*
Chris: "I'm not Claire, i 'm not gonna sit and make breadcrumbs all day."
2 minutes later...
"The sour dough is throwing me off. We got to have to remake that." 🤣🤣🤣
Chris guessing skills are so on point, his taste receptors (lol if I may) are very accurate. I would trust him with anything tbh great chef and a great person all around 100 overall rating. I like watching his episodes the most on this channel!!
When Chris is guessing ingredients I get nervous. He'd be like pretty close then starting to doubt everything.

Same with spring onions. He always struggles with them and they have a very distinctive flavour. Unless they are just bad in the US. Because here in the UK, a spring onion is very flavourful.

I love sassy Chris
if I even attempt to try that one I would be like “mmmm, a lobster... a very very delicious one” and that’s it.
Chris trying to figure out the Test Kitchens baguette bluff was priceless.
Sicilian Reasoning at its finest!

EXACTLY
Has he mentioned his favorite movie is top gun?
"they look pretty identicval, mine smells like weed though" I can´t stop laughing
"The faster you go, the less time you have for making mistakes" - mind is blown.
