I feel like Sohla is such a people person. She seems to bloom when she's interacting with someone, whether that's Claire or Brad in the old days, Kendall in the Babish Kitchen, Rick or Erin on Food52, or with Ham right here. I'm so happy that this channel saw this and made it a regular thing (weekly even!)
@@vigilantcosmicpenguin8721 right! they also work together , they dont try to steal the show from one an other. like they make content because they like it not for popularity sakes. its so great
I love how polite they are to each other. She said "thank you" for opening the oven door and he said "you're welcome". He said "please smash the potatoes". They are just so kind when they speak to each other. It's so lovely and refreshing.
I love them!!!! Sohla's food dreams are incredible, but before she only had an hour, and one set of hands. It feels like she and Ham together can accomplish anything. Their creative energy, their combined problem solving skills, their practiced division of labor. It feels like we are invited guests at an impromptu house party. Their enthusiasm makes my mouth water- they are just as excited by the new weird adventurous stuff they make (pickle cake) as they are about their tried and true favorites (fried pickles). It makes me excited too.
I have to admit, "Look at that ratio of pickles to cherries; it's like a dream!" is not a sentence I expected to hear when I woke up this morning. And that's part of what makes these two such a delight! NYT, we need more of these two. Much more.
sohla and ham are just quite literally the most attractive couple. makes my heart so happy seeing a couple work together so confidently and gracefully.
I love that for the last 8 minutes they went semi chef mode and started repeating how much time was left and what still needed to be done. What a great team!
Ham is so sweet!! Sohla wanting fried pickles yet putting those secondary in order to focus on the cake. Then Ham saying the pickles aren’t secondary to him!!
i know theyre speaking english, but i also feel like when they're talking yo one another it's in a language on they're privy to 🥺 they inhabit their own world so beautifully together
My favorite part is when they repeat what the other said. They both do it and it's adorable. I also feel like it's a chef-y thing where you call back so you know the order was heard.
It's 100% part of the restaurant world. If you work back of house, you'll hear things repeated 5 times just to make sure everybody is on the same page.
Love their chemistry, Sohla is always good -- these two together is refreshing content and a new perspective! A healthy relationship with good communication in team work just makes it that much better.
I am obsessed with this series now! Adding Ham was such a genius move! Ham actually brings out Sohla’s personality more and not that we haven’t seen Sohla and known Sohla but Ham compliments Sohla in a very amazing way! I love them both together in this show! Don’t ever stop this NYT! This is my favorite show and i’m commiting my time to it now!
I am SOOO glad Ham is involved! It’s like the whole episode is our favorite part, when they would play off each other (before he went back to the bedroom). This was a fantastic move!!!
I think even tho its a silly challenge, something we can all learn from this is how to think a bit harder about what to make when you see something on sale at the grocery store.
I love the call and response! You can tell S&H have been restaurant chefs and have worked together a lot. Thanks, NYT, for delivering Sohla and Ham in such delightful packaging.
These two are great. I love the format of this show. Considering how good he is and the chemistry he and Sohla have on screen, it's surprising that Ham hasn't been on camera before.
I think because it was Sohla's thing that she fell into at BA, he fully supported her and let it be hers. I wonder if he did this by himself he would still have the same outgoing personality or if he feeds off her energy, ya know?
Loved Sohla since I first saw her, now I know. When I'm too tired too cook I've give myself permission to call popcorn dinner. And now I know I'm not alone.
Y'all are an absolute delight, as always. I don't know what's more iconic, "Look at that ratio of pickles to cherries! It's like a dream!" or, "In the spring, we only eat ranch."
My life was elevated once I started marinating chicken in half buttermilk half pickle brine. Really most marinated food is better with pickle brine, and even people who HATE pickles love it. Also its really good for cramps and nausea.
I drink it when I’m hungover 😂 Game changer! Edit: also - just add it to existing vinegar jars you have or use it as vinegar once your pickles are gone. Saves you a bunch of money and it actually can have more flavour than standard vinegar :)
Put hard boiled eggs in pickle brine for a few days. Keep refrigerated. Eat sliced. Brine can be reused 2-3 times before it loses its potency. Pickled eggs were my favorite food as a kid and I've never stopped loving them! Now my husband is hooked too.
I am dying to know how you all met- because you’re perfect for each other. No wonder you always come up with amazing recipes.😊 Great team work! Looks so delicious! (👏🏻 Time to chug pickle juice!)
@@Rayvana The CIA rules, I grew up nearby. For anyone reading this, check out their campus & restaurants if you're ever in Hyde Park, NY. Gorgeous place, delicious food.
So glad you brought Ham on. It seemed like more chaos and less enjoyment from you before now it's very relaxed. You two have great chemistry and I hope you do many series together!
I know lots of people have already said it but having both of them on for this challenge is great! Sohla is always a delight to watch and makes improving on cooking feel more accessible, but add Ham and it's just even more fun! :D
I love that Sohla and her hubby Ham are getting the screen time they deserve you fully get to see how knowledgeable and talented they are! And how much Sohla was wasted at Bon appetit! Like these videos are incredible! Super creative and I LOVE their dynamic! Huge huge fan! Lots of love! 🥰🥰
As much as I love seeing Sohla and Ham cooking together, I'd love to see one episode where part of the secret ingredient revelation that they'll compete against each other in separate kitchens.
I just want to say, I love these two. Finally filling up the hole that BA left in my heart. Just wanted to echo what someone else said that this is the best Cooking show on youtube currently!
It's like MasterChef mystery box 2.0. I remember watching this show with only Sohla on and experiencing second hand panic for her, but with Ham the mise en place is so efficient and it balances the entire time management required for this. This is my new favorite thing to watch. Great job Sohla and Ham and the Team.
absolutely love having ham in these videos! please keep him on. the dynamic, creativity, and skills of these two combined is through the roof and so so fun to watch
I don't know why but when Sohla asked to borrow the salt at 3:28 felt like such a power move. 🤣 Also, them wiping down the counter in the end really shows that they are true food professionals. 😍
Fyi I love the close up angles on these older versions of ham + sohla,, please consider taking this filming forward on their videos. Would hugely appreciate xx😊
Easy-peasy if you are Russian!!! 1. Russian salad (also knows as "olivie") 2. Two russian soups for a choice: Rassolnik or Solyanka 3. Azu (beef stew) 4. Shortbread cookies based on pickles marinade. All meals included pickles as important ingredient.
It is such a delight to see this beautiful couple in this super adorable show. Thank you Sohla, Ham, and NYT for bringing a sweet, quiet moment to our lives. More shows like this plz.
I just watched all of their 2 chefs episodes. Whoever thought of this...AMAZING. I love them, they are so good together, I really hope this becomes a regular thing!!!
Automatically one of my absolute favourite shows. Truly love their kindness, creativity, brilliance, joy, thoughtfulness. Just fantastic. A wonderful light for all of us. [Sohla talking about her popcorn addition during the ancient tibetan recipe and pickle-everything here - it's a theme!]
This is great to binge watch. Each show you get more insight into how Ham puts flavors together. Sohla is much more relaxed. Now she doesn't have to shout to Ham to come in and help. He's part of it all.
Been stuck in lockdown (in Melbourne) for what seems like forever and Sohla’s videos are what has been getting me through. Honestly, the highlight of my week. I really enjoy watching Sohla and Ham work together in the kitchen, bouncing ideas off one another. Wish my partner had an interest in food like I do!
good segment. nice to see two chefs working together. hard to find kitchen teamwork like this on youtube. feels like im about to sit down for a fun family meal. also its just sweet that they are married
Love Sohla already but Ham is the addition this series needed. They have amazing chemistry and it's so fun watching two expert chefs who work together so well be pushed to be so creative.
![Felix "Unfair" | [Stray Kids : SKZ-PLAYER]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/Oswujxm2Ag0/mqdefault.jpg)
ever since Ham joined , this show got super fun. like Sohla is amazing but them together is so fun to watch.
I feel like Sohla is such a people person. She seems to bloom when she's interacting with someone, whether that's Claire or Brad in the old days, Kendall in the Babish Kitchen, Rick or Erin on Food52, or with Ham right here. I'm so happy that this channel saw this and made it a regular thing (weekly even!)
It's like, Sohla is cool enough on her own, but then Ham is like having a second Sohla.
@@vigilantcosmicpenguin8721 right! they also work together , they dont try to steal the show from one an other. like they make content because they like it not for popularity sakes. its so great
agreed
I agree
I love how polite they are to each other. She said "thank you" for opening the oven door and he said "you're welcome". He said "please smash the potatoes". They are just so kind when they speak to each other. It's so lovely and refreshing.
I love how everyone agrees that Sohla is 10 out of 10 and the added Ham pushes it to 13.
Adding Ham to a Sohla cooking show is like adding ham to a cheese sandwich. The sum is far greater than its parts.
AGREED
@@jase_allen but a really good cheese sandwich!
I love them!!!! Sohla's food dreams are incredible, but before she only had an hour, and one set of hands. It feels like she and Ham together can accomplish anything. Their creative energy, their combined problem solving skills, their practiced division of labor.
It feels like we are invited guests at an impromptu house party. Their enthusiasm makes my mouth water- they are just as excited by the new weird adventurous stuff they make (pickle cake) as they are about their tried and true favorites (fried pickles). It makes me excited too.
They’re honestly relationships goals. They work together with ease. There’s so much love, understanding and respect between them.
I have to admit, "Look at that ratio of pickles to cherries; it's like a dream!" is not a sentence I expected to hear when I woke up this morning. And that's part of what makes these two such a delight! NYT, we need more of these two. Much more.
Ham reassuring Sohla that making fried pickles and ranch was not a secondary task for him but a priority made my heart melt
sohla and ham are just quite literally the most attractive couple. makes my heart so happy seeing a couple work together so confidently and gracefully.
i agree❤
I love that for the last 8 minutes they went semi chef mode and started repeating how much time was left and what still needed to be done. What a great team!
Ham is so sweet!! Sohla wanting fried pickles yet putting those secondary in order to focus on the cake. Then Ham saying the pickles aren’t secondary to him!!
Yes! That was so sweet, he made sure his girl got her fried pickles. I want their love so bad 😭🥺🥺
I love how they keep repeating each other. It's like they are each other's echo. Seriously couple goals.
that's more of a professional kitchen thing than a couple thing :) that's how you let someone know you heard/understood them.
i know theyre speaking english, but i also feel like when they're talking yo one another it's in a language on they're privy to 🥺 they inhabit their own world so beautifully together

Still curious to know about hams third least favorite ingredient
I saw him holding a piece of paper towards the end and thought the reveal was about to happen, but no, it didn't
Yes! Me too!
OMG, now I must know! What did her write down???
I am SOOO glad Ham is involved! It’s like the whole episode is our favorite part, when they would play off each other (before he went back to the bedroom). This was a fantastic move!!!
I love how polite and kind they are with each other, always saying please and thank you and embracing each other's ideas
I love Sohla’s laugh. So contagious
I think even tho its a silly challenge, something we can all learn from this is how to think a bit harder about what to make when you see something on sale at the grocery store.
I'm in Germany, where a "sale" means 20 cents cheaper. 😂
This show always feels like getting to hang out with a really cool friend-couple for dinner and I love it
That “tartar sauce inspired” salad looked incredible. Definitely going to try to recreate it.
I love the call and response! You can tell S&H have been restaurant chefs and have worked together a lot. Thanks, NYT, for delivering Sohla and Ham in such delightful packaging.
Please make episodes for every ingredient in existence. Thanks.
These two are great. I love the format of this show. Considering how good he is and the chemistry he and Sohla have on screen, it's surprising that Ham hasn't been on camera before.
Perhaps he didn’t want to be before. Not everyone wants to be in the limelight.
Love the show
I think because it was Sohla's thing that she fell into at BA, he fully supported her and let it be hers. I wonder if he did this by himself he would still have the same outgoing personality or if he feeds off her energy, ya know?

Y'all are an absolute delight, as always. I don't know what's more iconic,
"Look at that ratio of pickles to cherries! It's like a dream!"
or,
"In the spring, we only eat ranch."
I feel like such a monster for throwing out my pickle brine all these years while these two treat it like its liquid gold.
Add onions to it for pickled onions
My life was elevated once I started marinating chicken in half buttermilk half pickle brine. Really most marinated food is better with pickle brine, and even people who HATE pickles love it.
Also its really good for cramps and nausea.
I drink it when I’m hungover 😂 Game changer!

I drink the brine as a probiotic for that good gut bacteria. Also use it to make dirty martinis
the way I RAN here
I am dying to know how you all met- because you’re perfect for each other. No wonder you always come up with amazing recipes.😊 Great team work! Looks so delicious! (👏🏻 Time to chug pickle juice!)
I read Sohla's wiki, they met in the CIA - Culinary Institute of America
Right! We need a story time video
@@Rayvana The CIA rules, I grew up nearby. For anyone reading this, check out their campus & restaurants if you're ever in Hyde Park, NY. Gorgeous place, delicious food.
So good! I like the way Ham is supportive and enhances Sohla’s shine!
ham being on camera is frickin epic
So glad you brought Ham on. It seemed like more chaos and less enjoyment from you before now it's very relaxed. You two have great chemistry and I hope you do many series together!
I love how even in a tight competition Sohla still insists on scraping the paddle and bowl🤣Love this girl!
Love watching talented people who are so confident and calm just DO THEIR THING.
These 2 have such soothing voices. I could sit and listen to them talk all day long.
This is such a good format! They have the calmest screen presence in the world. Love this series.
These two are so kind and supportive of each other, great role models. Also, I need a whole book on Solah's homemade ranch endeavors!!
This is the delightful, wholesome content the world needs.
Yessss don’t ever stop giving us continuously scheduled doses of these two!!
I know lots of people have already said it but having both of them on for this challenge is great! Sohla is always a delight to watch and makes improving on cooking feel more accessible, but add Ham and it's just even more fun! :D

The level of communication between this couple is super admirable. I just love them!
As much as I love seeing Sohla and Ham cooking together, I'd love to see one episode where part of the secret ingredient revelation that they'll compete against each other in separate kitchens.
I thought "what a terrible idea!" until I realized it would wholesome and they'd help each other -- even more than a GBBO episode. That's okay then.
This was such a treat. I love how they repeat each other... maybe it's a restaurant chef thing but it's truly super cute. Keep it going! 👨🍳❤👩🍳
it is a restaurant thing :)
I just want to say, I love these two. Finally filling up the hole that BA left in my heart. Just wanted to echo what someone else said that this is the best Cooking show on youtube currently!
Love that Ham joined Sohla for this series!! and love way they throw ideas back and forth.
They seem to work so well together! So chill. So easy. No matter the pressure.
i cant say it enough, but omg i love them so much. the creativity. the chemistry. i could watch them all day.
These two are my favorite cooking folks to watch! I love this series.
easily
Sohla cooking show = 10 out of 10
Sohla and Ham cooking show = Pickle brine out of 10
Keep ‘em coming New York Times
It's like MasterChef mystery box 2.0.

Can’t get enough of this couple cooking together dammit they are so cute ugh
they are somehow both chaotic and calm at the same time?? even under time pressure. I love them both very much
It’s lovely that they say thank you and you’re welcome to each other 🥰
Fyi I love the close up angles on these older versions of ham + sohla,, please consider taking this filming forward on their videos. Would hugely appreciate xx😊
You can tell that they’re genuine best friends within a marriage . Its cute lol
I am loving these videos with the two of them working together. It works so well. Their on screen presence feels wholesome and genuine .
This is all I want all day Sohla and Ham!! Please post more. And more often.
What did Ham write? They took it and used the intel for next epi 😂
Easy-peasy if you are Russian!!! 1. Russian salad (also knows as "olivie") 2. Two russian soups for a choice: Rassolnik or Solyanka 3. Azu (beef stew) 4. Shortbread cookies based on pickles marinade. All meals included pickles as important ingredient.

You can really see the chemistry between them 😍 they’re so cute together and really bring out the best in each other!
More Sola and Ham! More Sola and Ham! I love how they work together and compliment each other’s skill set. These two deserve their own show!
I am LIVING for these Mystery Menus with Sohla and Ham! That cake looked amazing!!
Sohla and Ham are SUCH a dream team!!!! Love them together!! Literal couple GOALS!!! ❤️
I just watched all of their 2 chefs episodes. Whoever thought of this...AMAZING.
I love them, they are so good together, I really hope this becomes a regular thing!!!
OMG!! Such an amazing couple and a dynamic due.. they totally deserve a whole channel lol
i love the whole dynamic that sohla and ham have. its so refreshing to watch!
Automatically one of my absolute favourite shows. Truly love their kindness, creativity, brilliance, joy, thoughtfulness. Just fantastic. A wonderful light for all of us. [Sohla talking about her popcorn addition during the ancient tibetan recipe and pickle-everything here - it's a theme!]
this is the best show on youtube. hands down. period. sohla and ham are unstoppable. i love them.
This is great to binge watch. Each show you get more insight into how Ham puts flavors together. Sohla is much more relaxed. Now she doesn't have to shout to Ham to come in and help. He's part of it all.
I love watching these two create and work together. Such a fabulous duo!
Their relationship is precious. Protect them at all costs
I wanna cook with someone like Ham. He’s like an emotional support human.
NYT, I'm a paying subscriber. Thank you for having these Chefs and People of High Integrity working together in your videos 😂
I really enjoy the addition of Ham on the show. It's so cool seeing them work together. He's obviously so talented as well.
any time i bake now, i hear sohla in my head reminding me during the mixing stage to “scrape the bowl, scrape the mixer”
my favorite duo!
The way they repeat each other's speech is really adorable.
Been stuck in lockdown (in Melbourne) for what seems like forever and Sohla’s videos are what has been getting me through. Honestly, the highlight of my week. I really enjoy watching Sohla and Ham work together in the kitchen, bouncing ideas off one another. Wish my partner had an interest in food like I do!
I lovvvee the addition of Ham to this! It makes it so lively, perfectly matches the challenge and time limit.
The banter with Off-Screen-Scott brings me joy.
I love watching professional chefs cook, there’s like 0 measuring because its all ingrained, so awesome
You did see Sohla weighing ingredients for the cake, right?
@@andreadavidson5010 yes I was being hyperbolic when I said 0 measuring but still only using a plastic cup to measure is amazing
I’ve always loved Sohla but the two of you together is the content I never knew I needed😭
Believe it or not this is EVEN better. Oh my God couple power. So entertaining. Thank you. Ham rocks too.
good segment. nice to see two chefs working together. hard to find kitchen teamwork like this on youtube. feels like im about to sit down for a fun family meal. also its just sweet that they are married
Damn the creative process is so entertaining to watch, so much talent packed in this lovely couple
"Well it's all going to be weird, it's whether its gonna be tasty-weird."
Ham El-Wayle, 2021
I know they're both insanely AMAZING, but them echoing each other with everything is so cute 😂
Cuuuuute! I love these two together.
Love that you left the "fish"
"Mhm" in. So great
"in the spring we only eat ranch" I knew Sohla and Ham were my kind of people
It's so much fun watching them work together.
Love Sohla already but Ham is the addition this series needed. They have amazing chemistry and it's so fun watching two expert chefs who work together so well be pushed to be so creative.
This! Is what a supportive partnership means. Love the chemistry.
This is currently my favorite food show on RUclips. Please keep making more!
I could watch these two all day. This show is too good
