"into le crack, I put le chives!"
lol she's definitely a mom
Atlαѕ- Z why u say that b
Tt Tt - its a mom joke, similar to a dad joke.
XDDDDD
spoonikle thanks for explanation.
I can feel her son rolling eyes after she said that
This is why I come to this channel. I had no idea I was giving the wrong specifications for my eggs when at restaurants. From now on when I'm prompted "how would you like your eggs?" I will reply: "Shiny AF"
atreidestw LOL
😂😂
😅😅
atreidestw and the chefs would understand your order and cook them that way for you
"Shiny like that crab in Moana."
i watch brad if i want something lighthearted and silly, i watch claire if i want something interesting and informative, and i watch carla because she reminds me of my own mom trying to teach me how to fend for myself, lmao, love this channel
did you just summarize the whole idea of the test kitchen? ;)
I freaking love this comment. It's so precious❤❤❤❤❤
I watch aAndy if i wanted to get aroused.
@@asdfghjkl4741 BIG MOOD. I felt that statement in my soul lmao
Lexi Bowen ,
Oh, it’s absolutely correct!
You summarised it greatly !!!!
How would you like your eggs, sir?
Me: Shiny AF with some le chives in le crack please.
“It’s shiny AF” lmao she’s so cute
That was the stupidest part of the video.
Oh come on, she's doing it sarcastically. Don't be such a buzzkill.
hans well dang, who pee’d in your cheerios this morning
MeloKayy your mom
Very fresh and real girl!! ❤️her!
"Into le crack, I put le chives." 😂 👍
SHINY AF🙂
*le cracqué
Carla Music I was dying at that 😂🤣
She is so delicate with her ingredients. It's like she is bringing it to life. Beautiful eggs, what an excellent chef.
i can't believe you missed the opportunity to use the "eggcellent" pun
And she was wrong
Seann Holmes in what way wrong?
She failed multiple times.
"That's like eggs ten or eleven ways. So all the ways"
Amiel: Hold my egg
Amiel: actually, give me my egg back, i need it
in 1975 I bought " The Art of French Cooking" and to this day I still use Julia's Omelet technic. Always works. I love that y'all make mistakes, as we all do. helps us to keep trying.
I don't eat eggs... I just want Carla in my life. She makes me want to be a better person. I love you Carla... where ever you are!
Yep, just sitting here being vegan learning about eggs anyway because Carla.
That fried egg with the oil and crispy brown edges is EXACTLY how I love my fried eggs, especially with white rice and a Vietnamese style fried pork chop. As for scrambled, I do a variation of Ramsey's style (I skip the cream) where I cook it in a pot with a big dollop of butter and stir it on the heat and don't salt and pepper it until after I take it off the heat. As for poached, the first time I tried, I was using Julia Child's recipe which called for vinegar, and I'm glad Carla found the vinegar to be useless unless you put so much in that your egg will get that taste. When I want to do the "French" omelette, and I don't wanna get fancy, I do what Julia Child does. High heat with butter, put the whisked eggs on the pan and do the pulling the pan towards you method to get the egg to naturally shake itself in an Omelette form. Takes like 10 seconds.
Nobody cares!
Gordon’s scrambled eggs changed my life! I don’t do the creme fraiche either, mostly cause I never have any :)
Into le crack, I put le chives!
I literally cracked up laughing.
But yeah. Good job~
Quite the eggcelent comment
I'm loving the recent Carla content!! ♡ you, Carla!
I heart Claire more, no offence carla :)
Everyone in the BA test kitchen seems like a lot of fun to be around. I am not in the food industry, but I wanna work in your kitchen just to hang out with everyone.
I can promise if you use garlic butter to start your omelette you will change lives
lane darr , thank you for the tip.
Agreed !!!
I don't normally use garlic butter, but I do add garlic in some form or another to my omelettes. And some form of hot sauce beaten into the eggs.
lane darr you’ve never lied to me yet
Mincing the garlic does wonders too. Might have to tweak it a couple of times to get the desired taste but garlic butter sounds great, never thought of that before.
She’s really adorable, honestly she’s been growing on me. Love you Carla!!! You make me smile!!!
asian loved their crispy eggs , we let our eggs swim in a wok of oil until it brown but the yolk still runny and my family traditionally serve them with mix of fried garlic,sweet soy sauce and chillies. yum
iqbal trisnayuda I know right!
🤤🤤🤤
Mm...I'll have to try that.
YESSS WITH SOME BAGUETTE ON THE SIDE
The egg yolk is the best condiment for rice, bread, etc
wow i love her. i want her to invite me over for wine but also adopt me
I thought I hated eggs until Carla came into my life. 😍 That perfect fried egg. 🤤
That fried egg technique worked BEAUTIFULLY for me- thank you!!
"we're being gentle to ourselves, we're being gentle to the egg......" Lifestyle Guru Carla!
the amount of times she had to do poached eggs literally proved how hard she said they werent
That’s the whole point of the vinegar - denatures the proteins in the egg white just enough to make it set consistently
But vinegar is gross, vinegary eggs, double ick
meggy magoo you can’t even taste it on the egg. It’s not a big enough quantity and the taste of the egg overcomes the taste of the vinegar. I always cook my poached eggs in water with a tablespoon of vinegar.
Matt yup, I tried her method and it did not work as well as they edited it to look
Matt I don't really get the hate for poached eggs 😂😂😂 It always works for me: I wait for the water to boil, turn down the heat a little, make a vortex and crack it in. I eat them like that with noodle or just crack one in hot water, cover the bowl and microwave for about 1’.
carla you are awesome, your humor and easy way of doing things makes me want to try everything you cook and loose all fear in the kitchen , plus i love that you explain everything and give a reason for it. we love you !
"Into *le crack* we put, *le chives* and no one knows" hahaha
For the fried egg... If you want butter flavor, use ghee/clarified butter. It's got a higher smoke point than any of the olive oils.
duh
I use cold-pressed rapeseed oil because it has a buttery flavor and can take the higher heat, but it all looked delicious anyway
I also just add a bit of butter towards the end purely for flavourbut not for long or ona lower temp after most fo the egg is done frying
“We’re being gentle to our selves” as she adds a half of stick of butter to the pan
Butter is healthy.
'Murica
Carla Music life is shorter if you eat all the butter.
Paula Dean would've added there sticks just to be safe.
@@maggiecrooks6936 Butter is healthy. Get with the program.
I made a poached egg! I feel so accomplished! It's all thanks to you, Carla!
I just love your videos! Not only are they very informative, your personality comes through and it’s like you’re telling me everything is gonna be ok in life!😃
After much experimentation my opinion is that manchego is the best cheese for scrambled eggs. Sharp cheddar comes in a close second.
Thank you for being human. This video is pure joy. 😃❤️
Thanks for sharing! She's funny and I like that these videos doesn't try to be overly perfect, but just honest and practical. It makes me feel that I can do the recipes, even if I'm not a professional cook.
All the different ways you can make eggs with makes it feel so much than just "eggs." Thank you!
i see carla i click
Yaaassss!
This video is not for Gordon Ramsay fans lol
valdeaunia I
yup, he gon be so pissed
Ramsey who? really
Massimo Bottura would actually like this video, even assist this Chef Carla… but then again Massimo is someone important. Go figure
I think he was referring more to the scrambled egg part, not denouncing Carla as a whole. All chefs do scrambled eggs a little bit differently. She stated that she was going for larger curds, not smaller ones. Gordon Ramsay does smaller curds over low heat very slowly, almost like a risotto. He also doesn't salt until he's already started cooking the eggs so they won't separate but she mentioned that in the video. Just different techniques, not implying she's a bad chef.
That's the beauty of cooking - everyone has their own take on a recipe. Eventually everything goes into the tummy. As long as it tastes good!
Hi Carla, great video..I love your lightness and humor that you have in your videos..beautiful job on the eggs! thanks
I love how honest they are about not killing it on the first try.
Carla has my favorite attitude in the kitchen, don’t get me wrong everyone is awesome too but I love her.
Carla, my QUEEN! Back at it again slaying our lives
Fantastic video. Carla has a great personality, is so fun, and is informative without being overly serious. I especially loved the simple poached egg method using no vinegar. I'm also going to get a cheap squeeze bottle for my olive oil (no more slippery oil running down the side of my big bottle). I'm still going to add a teaspoon or so of water to my scrambled eggs (as other chefs recommend) to add fluffiness. Well done.
This is the best egg-making video I have witnessed plus her personality is just funny and wonderful. Definitely going to try what I've learned from this video. Nice job!
the french laugh when she successfully flipped it over i died laughing
Thanks for the tips Carla! I just looked up this video to make myself an omelette, even if I wasn't born in France... I completed it with "le spinach"!
Carla...Thank you because you never fail to make me smile from ear-to-ear as I continue learning... *: )*
i watch the video because i love Carla's warmth.. she is such fun and down to earth.
"into le crack, I put le chives" - master class right there. Love it!
Finally someone who does fried sun side up egg the RIGHT WAY! I hate when people make it and the white is not crispy and yolk has translucent slime in it. Like no.
The scrambled though I like making it golden aswell and the omelette, Im weird 😂👏🏻 it has to be well done for me and the poached and the hard boiled eggs are a no ..... cause they are cooked.
Scorpionic Very confused about how you like your eggs, hard boiled and poached eggs are completely different, one of which the yolk is solid and the other it is runny...
Jessa Birchard I like them fried in a pan with no water involved.
Okay that makes sense. Just confused me as you said you don't like poached and hard boiled because they're cooked but not well done
Scorpionic Gordon Ramsay?, is that you?
Caring Clover ITS RAW 😂😫
I now have a new favorite recipe thanks to this video. The fried egg with chard was amazing! Can't wait to make it for others and share this simple but delicious dish!
Carla! Thank you for doing this! I feel much more confident about the whole egg scene now.
Shes like that one teacher thats also your friends mom and omg i love her
lowkey feel like mom recipes are the best tbh
Also I must add, that your directions are very simple and straightforward and easy to follow I'm definitely a subscriber and I don't even usually subscribe to anything
I love this channel so much! Watching these amazing chefs mess up and discover new things about food makes me feel so much braver in the kitchen! 💛
She's so delicate with her ingredients. It's like is bringing it to life. beautiful eggs, what an amazing chef 💐💯✅
Hello" who are you
I hope you're doing ok
Carla is awesome!!!!! That seems to be a common theme among the test kitchen staff
Kinda disappointed that there wasn't the hold the pan at an angle and tap the handle with the other hand it as the omelette rolls itself technique used.
_窮 Good old Jacques Pepin!
Kichi kichi
Thank you Carla! After nearly 20 years of avoiding making poached eggs because of some rather disastrous results when I was starting university, I took the plunge again following your method. And... success! OK, well, the first one was a bit wonky, but the second one was darn near perfect. Love your clear instructions, they totally worked, and now I have the joy of being able to do this for myself. Poached eggs are my favourite!
I could watch you make scrambled eggs for hours-it was so peaceful and awesome!
this made me realize that I’ve never had someone teach me to make scrambled eggs before lol
just watched this and made some poached eggs! Not perfect, but definitely poached! Thank you!
Hi
I have cooked eggs every way except for poached and I have to try that out also. Thanks for sharing the tip on how to crack an egg on a flat surface rather than on the corner of a skillet or other surface. That is one habit I have gotten into over the years and know that I need to stop that and have been trying to stop it. Thanks so much for these tips and I hope you all have a Blessed week next week.
So beautiful! Lovely ways to cook eggs. Thank you.
Carla is an eggcellent cook :)
Love Carla!
I love you! I’ve learned so much from you (God only knows I need a lot of learning when I’m in the kitchen) You make me so hungry!
As a speaker of both English and French, listening to Carla mix it both while explaining stuff is nice :) she is awesomely adorable 🥰 ( I developed an allergy against eggs so it’s all sad feelings about my favorite food giving me trouble but watching her make eggs put a smile on my face)
I think my favorite tool for eggs are chopsticks
They're perfect for whisking the eggs as well as cooking the eggs using them you can get a super soft and creamy curd
Thank u so much. So many say vinegar! Im glad u corrected that!
omg I've never seen someone in one of these videos do such a bubbly, crispy sunny side up!! it looks friggin delish
My mother used to always make me poached eggs and it really is easy once you get the technique and timing down. A beautiful runny yoke soaking into a slice of toast perfectly balancing its self on the line between crunchy and delicate. Amazing texture and maginificient yet simple flavor.
For the scrambled eggs, salt breaks down the proteins which makes it watery, which is why seasoning should be left last.
I personally love that very fine creamy scrambled eggs, you can get a beautiful result by cracking two eggs into a cold pan with butter and mixing while it heats up. Not to mention taking off the heat and letting residual heat continue to cook them for a moment still.
Gordon Ramsay undercover
Daniel Edwards I've started cooking my eggs this way, I watched a video on how Eggslut makes their eggs, and they are so delicious!
Daniel Edwards I
Omg I love that
Ya I mix everything in the pan don’t have to clean the mixing bowl then :)
Daniel Edwards haha, I seen when Gordon did it that way
Nice to see you guys show the failed attempts :)
julesinlife exactly! I love carla i dont know if some of the other people would be as forthcoming
Carla Music if u have no knowledge about it
Yeah, but at the same time it makes her tips disingenuous. She told us a few tips and said not to use vinegar and then proceeded to fail at making a poached egg 75% of the time, making her advice worthless; I have could achieve the same results without having ever watched this video.
Vinegar helps more than you think as well. Seriously, when I use vinegar my success rate skyrockets (currently 100% success) and you can't taste the vinegar, especially with toast/baked beans/sauce...etc.
All i have to say is im glad this was in my suggested videos 🤗🙌 thanks for those tips!
I love eggs so much. This is so helpful! And I love this woman too!
Is Carla HowToBasic?
Extra Chromosome Aleks the true howtobasic face reveal
I see you're a man of culture too

V-SAUSE
lol
Extra Chromosome Aleks are you How To Basic ?
IM HOWTOBASIC
You can 100% fry eggs with butter without burning them. I do it everyday. BUT a non-stick pan is important if you're doing it that way
Saltee same been doing it in butter my entire life n no problems so far
Or you can fry eggs with butter without burning in a cast iron skillet, once you get it well seasoned. I've had good luck with an old skillet -- I mean literally a 60-70 year old Griswold skillet I got off ebay. A lot of the cast iron skillets made today have a more coarse, pitted surface (didn't work as well fo rme).
I use Granite/Marble pan. Best for frying egg without oil
Caste Iron skillet is the perfect tool, but only eggs can be cooked in it. I have a 8" dedicated egg skillet! I use butter or bacon grease! LOL

I have been watch many BA videos lately and find myself increasingly enamored of Carla! Fun and clear explanations and instructions. Eggs can be easy-peasy and quick with a little know-how, but humblest of ingredients is always ready to humble you too. Luckily they come in packs of 12 and are pretty cheap. Break some eggs people!
She's so much fun to watch. Really well presented. Enjoyed it. :)
I love Claire and Carla!
Me too, but I love Carla the most!!
Eggs have been my biggest pregnancy craving so far 😂
Totally in love with this host! Her personality is awesome!
I just made my first poached egg! And then my second! It was so good and super easy with this method!
Why am I even watching this? I'm allergic to eggs 😂
How are you still alive?
@@Clipper1094 I ask myself this everyday
Wait! You cant have cake????
Lmao that's exactly what I say when watching cake videos, I'm diabetic xD
Day: 22 of physical distancing: “I’m going to make eggs 4 ways for breakfast”
Carla can ALWAYS "already hear about it." And I appreciate that.
Thank you I’ve now mastered the poached egg with Carlas help
YES. YES THANK YOU for not putting milk in your eggs omg
I still love it. Will not stop. I put half and half.
@@mannylozano8146 disgusting
Butter has milk
"baveuse" does not mean "dog drool" (that would be "bave de chien"). It means "drooly".
So chienuse would mean doggy
I don't think she was going for linguistic accuracy.
Evanoah Absolument. ;)
Well she shouldn't have said "It literally means dog drool." then, should she have?
I was about to leave a similar comment ^^
Wow you guys are really cool not pretentious not stuck-up self-righteous or condescending just straight-up having fun doing what you love w honesty integrity and deliciousness!!!!!!
Carla, you inspire me every day! This definitely eased my eggs to order anxiety and helped my brunch shift go smoothly. What apron are you wearing?
I was just looking for egg videos LOL
I may hate eating eggs (I dunno, it's a texture thing or deep seated existential horror, whatever) but I still think that poached egg looked delicious.
If the existential horror has something to do with baby chickens, you know that the eggs you eat are unfertilized, right? That's why there's no chicken embryo floating around in the yolk.
I love Carla with all my heart
Carla! I just made a perfect poached egg and could not be more proud of myself. Thank you!
More from this nice woman!!!
"9:29" Thant sentence made me like her even more.
That fried egg was exactly how I eat mine. So happy to see there are others who love the crispy bits
Amazing tips! Definately trying it out at home!
Dang, I was born in France but I still don't think I should be attempting that omelette. Someone might get hurt...
(And "baveuse" just means "drooly", there's no dog involved... xD)
Yeah I was like, wait there's no dog involved here, that would be "bave de chien". Haha.
French omelet tastes fantastic with low fat cottage cheese as a filling. You don't need expensive cheese to enjoy this omelet.
I feel like it's impossible to be in a bad mood while watching Carla. She has such a pleasant, cheery presence. Make more videos with her!
My 9 yr old son LOVES your videos and eggs. He tried the poached eggs technique and it came out beautiful!
