Recreating Ina Garten's Lobster Pot Pie From Taste | Reverse Engineering | Bon Appétit
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 1 ноя 2022
- We challenged resident Bon Appétit supertaster Chris Morocco to recreate Ina Garten's lobster pot pie recipe in the Bon Appétit Test Kitchen. The catch? He'll have to identify what he's making with a blindfold over his eyes, letting each of his other senses guide the way. Will Chris be able to reproduce each step the Barefoot Contessa takes without seeing the final product?

Chris making a WHOLE lobster stock and them cutting to Ina’s version of her just pouring a cup of fish stock killed me😂😂😂
They should be comparing the ingredients of the store bought stock vs his homemade stock, not penalizing him so much for that.
Right. Chris was spot on that you if have the ingredients such as lobster shell, you use them to make the stock.
“If you don’t have fish stock available, store bought is fine.” 😂
Ever since the store bought pastry incident, he’s not taking any chances
It won't be the first time Chris improved the recipe in his version
Chris was really out here IMPROVING the recipe 😂
as usual
Love the cutaway to boxed fish stock while Chris is pouring his soul into scratch lobster stock.
“Boxed fish broth” They put in fish broth. Not stock.
@@abbyl1608 same difference. Broth usually means simply seasoned and/or fortified stock. so just put some salt and pepper in good stock and you got a soup broth.
6:30
77 for appearance is absolutely ridiculous. If both of those came out to the same table at a restaurant no one would say, "I didn't order this hamburger."
They really hate when he scores himself high lol
Plus they gave him an 88 on the first go round when it was virtually the same..
Right?! I was shocked, should have been at least 90!!
Literally what did they sock him on?
Yikes, Chris' approach was way more sensible and reasonable than the original recipe.
It usually is more sensible or tastes better
I think he sometimes complains a bit too much but in this case it was, without a doubt, warranted
his 1st pie probably tated better than allk the rest too. Goes to show, your celebrity cooks dont make the best food, simple is king.
Because Chris is a trained chef and Ina isn't. I think.
He knows that too. He knows his recipe just made more sense, accessible ingredients and flavours.
Chris defending his method and skill is the only reason I keep watching. His experience and knowledge outperforms the chefs he is challenged to recreate. I call this a win!
Yes!
That appearance score was ridiculous lol, should've been an 85 at least imo. And his first pie probably tasted the best out of everything!
Absolutely. What was different a couple vent cuts and the height? That’s an absurd score in my opinion.
I KNOW!
right?? ridiculous power move
Nah I don't think so getting the appearance right was more so the puffiness of the pastry than the 5 cuts, the reason its so low is because the appearance is pretty easy to tell what it's supposed to be, for some other dishes the appearance is a lot more complex so slight variations won't lead to a huge cut in score but when it's extremely simplistic like a pie in the very same pot the margins are much smaller.
100%
I thought his first ingredient score was unfairly low due to dinging him for every ingredient in the scratch lobster stock. I also really appreciated Chris defending his pastry crust as better than the original, and snapping that he's not about to adding baking soda to pie crust when he doesn't need to :-)
Same
I mean, his ingredients were pretty off this time compared to usual. I do think they should have been comparing the ingredients of the two stocks, though, regardless of whether homemade or not. Unfortunately, though, lobster is not fish, lol, so it might not have made much difference.
Came here to write this same comment, felt pretty petty! Ding him on lobster stock vs fish stock but leave all the ingredients used to make it out. Also dinging him on flaky salt vs kosher salt?
It think it was used as a hint that he had made a major error, and since it couldn't be lobster or making a bread...
appreciated Chris' tone that he was defending all of his "wrong" choices even though in his heart, it looked like he didn't feel totally great about his endeavor. lol
77% on appearance?
TF is Chris supposed to do more?
Exactly what I was thinking - maybe they docked 11.5% for each slit he missed?😅
They once took points off of him bc he used a different kind of pan to make one part of the dish! Like is he supposed to taste the pan on the dish? Wtf. Honestly sometimes it is infuriating to watch his genius man being judge so harshly
Buying a lobster, having a stock, and not using the shell in the stock, is so wasteful. Chris's 1st version was better than the actual recipe.
I'd rather not make my own stock. It makes me want to retch
@@lillyess385 Good thing you're not a Chef then. :) Ina & Chris are so they write the recipes...
For some reason I assumed she was using prepared lobster. Seems more in line with the recipe imo.
I stand by Chris doing whatever he wants. He’s a cooking god
Imagine what people would say about Chris if he'd actually CHOSEN to throw away the rest of the lobster to simply use a store-bought fish stock instead! I'm curious to see if I can find out what Ina's excuse was for choosing it. The scoring on this seemed way off to me, especially the "Appearance" score.
Yeah but I think maybe it would have made sense to include at least some fish stock bc it wasn't fishy enough. Could have sautéed the shells and then boiled them in the fish stock instead of water!
Agreed that the appearance score was way off. Did he get 22 points off for not having enough vent slits?
If Ina wanted to accomodate for people using frozen lobster tails/meat, then the fish stock makes sense
All I can think of is by appearance he went for the appearance of the crust AND the insides, but even than it did seem off to me.
The scoring on these episodes is always a joke...so much so that it actually is less enjoyable to watch the content after a while in my opinion.
Can we get Chris reverse engineering one of his OWN recipes already?!?!?!
this would be hilarious to see if he got it
I doubt they could pull that over on him.
He would know immediately lol, he's a trained chef and good at this. So sick of seeing this suggestion.
@@evanperkinns9039 Not too sure why they couldn't just joke around with him? Would be great content. LOL, not that serious.
yes plsssss
I thought 77 for appearance was crazy low! He nailed the overall look, does it really matter that he didnt get the exact amount of slits right?
Lol exactly it’s a sodding pie in a dish
@@Adamr587 I think thats the point though if he got 100 for making a pie in a dish appearance wise it would have been a freebie category.
Plus they gave him an 88 on the first go round when it was virtually the same..
He made a better pie. That’s significant. Acknowledge that man!! Judge definitely came off like a jerk. Chris, you are a gentleman and a wizard. I see you and I approve.
Agree about the judge, they were not vibing 😬
+1 about the judge. They should make a change for the next ones.
agree. that one comment about how it was the challenge to just recreate the dish was so annoying to me. ugh.
agree!
I think Chris aired the office drama first by giggling, pointing to the back of the room, and saying that's were you normally live basically eating sandwiches. "No need to prove anything here" is also pretty condescending. It's pretty unlikely that this is the first testy conversation that these two have had engaged in together.
Chris’s exasperation at the end tag was just priceless. Me too buddy. Me too.
Chris, that comment about being humbled by pie dough every now and then has fully liberated me. I am pretty inconsistent when it comes to quality pie crust, and I just feel like I've been transported to better company than I'd assumed.
I thinks credit should be given for the lobster broth. So good. FIRST instinct is the right one. I would give you a pass because I agree with you about the lard on the crust and the lobster stock look amazing. And your crust looks amazing. WRITE A BOOK
some might say this was Adams first and only chance at making it into a video. was good while it lasted buddy 🤝
What was he even doing what that shirt
Adam and Chris were sassy with each other. Adam was def laying into him hard.
The fact that the Fish Stock box label is in Comic Sans just adds to the contrast for me 🤣 Exquisite
"Much like dogs... and bees... dough can sense fear 😐"
This video is worth watching for this quote alone 😄
The man made lobster stock! And an excellent scratch pie crust without remembering the exact recipe. Game over.
There will never be enough episodes of this format
I do miss when he would go to the grocery store and then stare at the correct ingredients.
I love how much life he puts into this. He’s cheering for his scores like somebody cheering for their team. It’s so sweet to see how disappointed he got in himself and the weird energy between them too in the end 😅 sweet Chris. You rock and we love you even when you have a low score ❤️
ouch that appearance score was super rough... no way that's a 77
Do an episode in which Chris picks a dish for the other chefs to blind taste and recreate!!
“Much like dogs and bees, dough can sense fear.” 8:20 accurate statement, can confirm.
At the end Chris made a far better version (especially version one), than Ina. The only thing, which he really missed was the Pernod (or any Pastis) - this is usually crucial - and he should have thought about it.
But to be honest, it is very convincing, that he is a really good cook.
Y’all ever see the ingredient list and just know Chris is gonna miss something obscure and get mad
A pot pie recipe is already such a demanding experience, I'm surprised they had him make the recipe a third time! I'm sure he was tired by that point in the day, and then judged far too harshly for having such smart instincts in my opinion. The appearance score was downright brutal.
Excuse me? They gave him 77% for appearance for lack of slits and puffiness? Might as well count the salt flakes to make sure they’re the same amount. Jeez
I have to wonder if Chris's approach would differ if he knew the chef whose recipe he is trying to recreate? I imagine it could be a major hint as to how to approach the recipe/what ingredients to use/etc.
Normally Ina Garden has good recipes. A bit homey - but far beyond the “white trash” recipe of e.g. Rachel Ray or Paula Deen.
I guess, even if Chris would know the origin, he would have made the Lobster stock (...).
@@Dominikmj oh for sure on the lobster stock! I guess what I mean is, knowing that it's Ina's recipe, would he have maybe picked up on something like that anise liqueur? Or, oh this is a Rachael Ray recipe so I'm going to add XYZ and build the recipe in this specific way? I wonder if it would be a help or a hindrance to his final scores?
@@stephaniedegroot2399 interesting theory for sure. I do think certain chefs' styles could definitely impact method/ingredients/etc
@@Dominikmj Rachel Ray being known for making accessible recipes makes her white trash?? 🙄 Do you even know what that term means?
But that would ruin half of the surprise of having to determine what he’s attempting to make. I mean, anyone can recreate someone else’s dish, and not blindfolded at that, but he has to determine what’s in the dish by taste, feel, and smell alone. If he knew who made the dish ahead of time, he would know what to include or exclude.
I think you should be PROUD of yourself not disappointed. You’re sooo right on both the stock (you had the lobster make the thing!!) and omitting the “chemical leavening”. Love you’re content on here Chris!!
77 for appearance?! It was a pot pie and looked like a pot pie. Taking away 23 points because it had two less slits and was a slightly different height is insane
Consensus, 90 for appearance, adjust overall score accordingly 😂
Putting the fresh stock up as wrong ingredient is just ragebait imo and it worked like a charm
My dream would be submitting my chili recipe and watching Chris spend 3 days trying to figure out that Rotel was in it.
I would like to see a tasting episode, where he tries different types of onions, and had to try to guess white yellow or red! Of him guessing other various similar ingredients, basil vs parsley or something similar different types of broth… chicken vs beef vs fish vs turkey vs vegetable.
Idk why, But i’m getting this vibe where I feel like the 1st pie with the additional lobster stock probably tastes better than the one he presented🤷🏽♀️
I personally rated this 105% since it looked better than the original 😌
Haha fr Chris you KILLED that. Thank you for these amazing vids! Always look forward to watching these 😊
PS judges… calm down with the low scores lol give Chris a break haha 😘
6:31 BOXED fish stock. Poor Chris! Pours his heart and soul into a pot while a cut-away reveals... boxed fish stock. Chris seems like the more sensible one here!
I felt like there was some tension in that judging
You were absolutely *robbed* on appearance. You should have gotten a 90% *at least*
Someone calculate the score replacing the 77% with a 93%. That’s the actual final score lol
Edit: just kidding, I did it
The *real* final score is an 81%
Ayyy let’s go Morocco 🥳
Easily the most talented chef in the ba kitchen. It feels like he’s lifting 100 lb weights with each episode. His technique and knowledge is crazy.
two sides: Chris version number 1 made alot of sense. more then the OG one. the 2 things i would say he missed is the corn and fennel thing and him not putting alcohol in it.
Taste vs Training. Always the ultimate challenge in these episodes.
I love this series. Keep it up.
Chris is an intergalactic treasure!
It was time for a stumper! I liked seeing Chris off his game a little bit.
"The dough can sense fear"
Oh the flashbacks 🥲
Chris, I'm not disappointed in you ❣️
Chris, you are a rocket scientist. Friggin amazing how you do this thing.
77 for APPEARANCE? thats crazy, it looked the absolute same, just not as tall. Easily a 95.
Hmm, I can't think of another one of these where Chris gets mad at the other chef. He was totally right about the lobster stock though.
Jamie Oliver's Insanity Burger "layer of sadness" lettuce situation? LOL.
@@Cate_78 🤣🤣🤣
Chris, you’re a gift.
Chris definitely deserved better. His effort was an A+ and his score on appearance deserved higher. I’m disappointed on the judgement
18:43 Chris's little smirk cracked me up.
77% for appearance? That should've been a 90!
BEST. MASK. EVER.
also, love that Chris is so dedicated to making it delicious
Yay! A new episode of one of my favorite RUclips shows 🙌🏽!
“If you’re going to go lobster, then double down on the lobster.”
Where is the lie?😅
I feel like for April Fool's day next year they need to give Chris one if his own recipes!
Yes. I second this. That'd be hilarious.
Why does scoring seem to get more unfair each episode? Love this series but it kinda annoying to see him get so low balled after more than successfully creating the dish.
You want the real answer or the fun answer?
Any way we could get a behind the scenes. It’s crazy how talented he is that it’s to the point of unbelievable. I trust Chris but would love to see what he goes through
I think the appearance score was really severe. I’d say 90% at least. I couldn’t tell the difference between them.
Although the dish was definitely more on the challenging side as far as these go, it seems the judging was a bit severe, especially in appearance. He ended somewhere around a B- in my mind.
Chris just throwing a tantrum on the latter half of episode lol
"Honestly, the day felt like a D."
-C. Morocco
OMG! The appearance score ...like what?????
Love Adam not giving any reaction to Chris's excuses & just hand him the pity C 👍👍👍
CONGRATS 🎉 YOU HAVE BEEN PICKED AMONGST MY WINNER'S DM THE NAME ABOVE ⬆️⬆️ ⬆️🎁🎁 🥳
Chris, I’d eat yours any day!! Looks fantastic .
Please give this man his own dish for once, would be so interesting to see if he could guess it’s his own
That absolute unit in the background
she's been eating good
She thinks it's called the BA Taste Kitchen
Chris's version any day.
They chose a recipe with too many steps, ingredients, and can be taken in many directions.
Scoring seemed a bit harsh this time around.
Yeah with novel savoury pies there is so much variable I am not surprised he barely squeaked by. Still an ace effort regardless.
It took me a second to realize why Adam Moussa sounded familiar, then I realized that he was the one to babysit Brian David Gilbert through the legend of zelda cooking adventure.
Chris is so disappointed in himself every time after having done what the rest of us consider impossible.
not a fan of adam as a judge. came off very sassy with that "well the challenge is to recreate the dish" bruh it's been like 30 episodes everyone here knows that chill
If I had a choice between Ina's and Chris's, I'd choose Chris's first version. I appreciated that he used the lobster shell to make his stock. The fact that he could not tell there was fish stock in Ina's version indicates it didn't have much flavor. Good for Chris that he can make a crust without a recipe! I've been making pies for many years and still use a recipe every time.
I adore Chris!! ugh hes so iconic
We as fans loved to see when Chris goes shopping for ingredients, so put that back
Thank you
The fact that y’all dinged him for using flaky salt instead of kosher should be a crime…
chris is pissed lol that other guy has weird vibes and they seem like they hate each other.
I live for this content
I feel like chris’ version probably tasted way better
This is one of my favorite shows 😍
Now I want this for dinner!
Putting lard in pastry is just fine.
77 on appearance? Come on they looked the same practically but Chris's didn't rise quite as much. Chris's version with the lobster stock sounds way better too lol.
Keep I up Chris!!! We LOVE you in the kitchen!!
My man made his own lobster stock.
"dont fear the dough". Wasnt that something Brad said a long time ago?
I love this series, but I honestly would be curious how well Chris would do if he can see the dish. I imagine the grading would be harsher, but some of these have very elaborate preparations.
A new reverse engineering video I’m so happy I could CRY 🤩🤩
Chris be kinder to yourself. ❤ watching made me realize I need to do the same. That was some harsh judging
Best mask yet! OMG I want lobsta!!
Chris is the best chef in BA, period.
Whoa, Chris settle down. I love your perfectionism but its not a test. Really college is over. You get all As in life.
