This comment is pure GOLD!!! Haha. This made me laugh so hard my office mate looked at me weirdly. Lol
This comment made my day, I swear.

@Ganga Din seriously lol i was shocked watching this
Man you nailed it 😂😂😂😂😂
Ganga Din what do people normally do? Just wondering
@@kieranmaguire3293 here in Costa Rica, when we need to crack a coconut open we just literally throw it into the floor as hard as we can... after one or two strikes it opens right up
@@kieranmaguire3293 Coconut shell have three lines (axis wise). What I normally would do is, I look for the line that in between two closer lines. Hit that middle line on the centre (circumference wise) with the back of a machete. If you hit hard enough on that point, the shell will crack all the way around without spilling (just a bit tbh).
No hammer or screwdriver, just a hard surface with a blunt corner should do it.
It amazes me that Bon Appétit was cool with maybe being responsible for Natalie Portman losing a finger
Natalie's agents: She can't do that! Shoot her... or something!
I felt terrified for her while watching this...
why didn't they made her make a sandwich or something. I was so worried for her.
Lmfaooooo
But she was wearing pretty heavy duty looking gloves AND safety goggles.
Carla: Find a coconut that feels good in your hand.
Natalie: What does that mean?
*Chris in the background laughing*
She's also female and females tend to pay more attention to what is being said
AND ANDY AND GABY IN THE BACKGROUND hahahaha
Yeah he's held more than a few nuts in his hands
All Carla had to say is find the one that fits in your hand the best. As someone with a dingy small hand I knew what she meant.
Cracking a coconut
Carla, an experienced chef: use a hammer, screwdriver, machete and oil rig
Me, a West Indian: just pound it on de ground
Yes!
Just hammer it with your fist

I love how andy and chris from the back of the kitchen kept stealing looks at natalie cuz its natalie portman!!
Andy was laughing so hard watching Natalie continually his the coconut. :D
@AJtheory Have you not seen Brad? He's married with kids and dude is like a carpenter on the side. You're thinking BuzzFeed. 😂😂
@AJtheory I said "is like" specifically, because I wouldn't really call him a carpenter. My father was a laborer for the union most of his life.
But, if we are to classify him, he would be classified as having pretty "masculine" (🙄) traits or hobbies, just watch some of his other videos. Fishing, hunting, butchering, whatever you consider "dude" traits.
So to categorize him as either gay, or a hipster doesn't fit him well, and doesn't really apply to bon appetit very well either, I don't think. In the end I respect your opinion and I am not attempting to be rude. It doesn't really matter if we agree 🤷
FIRST THING I NOTICED, Chris couldn't look away. lol
he was also taking pictures/a video @ 8:39

Bethany Hunt it was so stressful to watch. My anxiety was through the roof.

Me too!!! Her poor little fingers would be reduced to dust with one fell swoop of the hammer.
I was more scared when she was trying to pull the screwdriver out and aimed at her face

uh there was nothing hard about this. literally you could have done that dish by saying "cut up these ingredients in big chunks and put in a bowl"
Carla is so descriptive. I'd never be able to explain that much detail for instruction.

TheChazzyC y’all are fantastic! Being a good chef brings us all together as equals. Our humanity is best seen in a kitchen and that’s my favorite room. It’s my laboratory and I’m not professionally trained as a cook. But the kitchen is the great equalizer room wherein we can just be us. Keep it up !

I'm so happy I'm not the only one who picked that up.. I about spit my drink out when I heard it
i mean, she was squeezing a lime. it makes sense

Natalie just immediately picks up the hammer like "Can we use the hammer?!"
This could actually be the origin story of The Mighty Thor. XD hahahaha jk
@@TheBukoStudio She is worthy
That coconut sequence was one of the most nerve wracking sequences I've ever sat through
I was praying for their fingers omg
"Quick and easy"
I can't be the only one that thought hammering near/into a glass measuring cup was a bad idea.
that's not how you do it either. they could have also stabbed themselves.
I was waiting for the measuring cup to explode.
As a woman of the Carribean, the way they're trying to open the coconut is verrrrry entertaining. My machete and I leave our regards. Love the idea of shaving off the coconut meat tho. Will try💖
Monilee A. Yup lol I just hit mine on the ground to crack it and work from there lol
As a man from South-East Asia, I concur. If someone were to walk in on them at that moment, one would think they were doing a science experiment or something 😂
You don't even need a cutlass (machete) to break this type of coconut, just go to the back of your house and knock it on something that is concrete, either the floor or wall 😂 that's how my mother did it.
Monilee A. Yeah, but WHY ARE YOU SO BEAUTIFUL?!
@@SmittenKitten. OMG thank youuuuu😭❤❤❤ I'm honestly not that cute but you're soooooo sweet love❤❤❤

Serious question: what's with Chef John's weird tilt to his voice? It's not in his earlier videos years ago, it's like he's brain damaged now or something, not even kidding every other word has this up and down off-putting pronunciation, did something happen?
Weston Dennis one doesn’t question Chef John
She's more like a fun aunt. I call her Crazy Aunt Carla.
My apartment doesn't allow such construction work without a permit.
You could just buy fresh coconut meat. That's the only thing that needs deconstruction.
Lmaooo
BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
hahahahaha
LOL rip to neighbours sleep
14:24 we now have a sound byte of Natalie Portman saying, "I like acid."
That needs to go in her third rap single if it doesn't we'd be severely disappointed.

Natalie Portman Tries to Keep Up With a Professional Carpenter
that made me lol
Honestly man i was siting here going "wtf are you doing lady?" haha.
she slammed into her thumb... i tink jz carpenter
What are they doing with the screwdriver and hammer,?!. This is not how we open our coconuts in our country 😂❤️
@@maiksg6211 I think the same hahahaha
I love how when Carla says just a drizzle of sesame oil, Natalie sits there pouring for like 30 seconds😂
Sarah Philips she pretty much covered the opening completely so barely any oil was coming out so she was just probably tryna get some out
as an asian we deadass just take a butcher knife and kapow the coconut. and BAM its open
Ikr. My Indian self was so nervous throughout the part where they break the coconut open. The measuring glass can break. She could've hammered her hand. She could've accidentally hit her eyes when she pull the screwdriver off.
searching for this comment. Was like what are they doing😒
And all the solo survival people who use coconuts for hydration just smack them against a rock or swing a machete at it and call it a day.
Exactlyyyyy
Carla is the best cook-along-coach by far! She really makes sure that she's listening to the cook-along person and tries to help them out. It's tough to help people out using only words like that.
I don't know, i like her cooking style, but the episode she did with Marlon Wayans was cringe worthy, she kept pushing him, he didn't get some of the instructions and she just kept going ignoring his "wait, what?" comments when he was sort of lost.
On the other hand, there doesn't seem to be any pressure for a strict time limit or anything. With the guest chefs like Ramsay and Flay, they were on a tight schedule. The guests were supposed to 'keep up' like the title suggested. And it was really amusing to see the amateur chef misinterpret the instructions and goof up the meal. Especially when they got to the turn around. You could see the panic on the plate, and see the sort of problems that arise in a technical writing sense.
This is more like a blind cook-a-long, and it doesn't feel like the guest will have the opportunity to get anything wrong, aside from small details like what Natalie did with the zucchini shaping.
Both versions are good... I just like seeing the potential disaster dishes more.
"make sure you grab the coconut that feels good in your hand". Wtf does that even mean? She doesn't explain it, she just says the same thing again lol
Yeah, I think part of the fun is how easily things can be misinterpreted when you don't have good time to explain things. This is a better verbal communication exercise, but it's less entertaining and to me, that is the point of watching things like this.
Water Boy Haha I was laughing so hard he was going so quick
As an Indian, and I'm sure my fellow Indians will also understand, watching them try to open that coconut for SO long was super stressful xD all we do is slam it on the counter top and its open xDDD
Yeah or like use a machete or something. A screwdriver, a hammer and all that jazz just takes so long😂
@@Rgh_01 And the awkwardness of striking on top of the rounded end of the screwdriver caused Carla to hit her own thumb. Watching them hammer it down was really nerve wracking.
I'm African we just find a rock outside and slam it and done
@@Adriano-xn9ct yeah. My anxiety levels were off the charts. Like "don't chop your finger off!!!" Jeez
Right 😂😂
"We're similarly petite.... *wide shot*.... in stature." - this is the moment I lost my mind.
😂😂😂😂😂
late but man this whole interaction between the 2 ladies was so cringeeeee
lol she was just reffering to hand size really
Petite refers to height in fashion. It means short and NP is only 5 ft something short
Personally, I would not have used a glass measuring cup when hammering the coconut's eyes with the hammer and screwdriver just to avoid any broken glass.
Yeah that seems like a really stupid idea. You're in a professional kitchen, if you really want to hold the coconut in something at least get a metal pot...
That made me so anxious actually
They are American, if they break things, they can just buy more.
not to mention the inward facing blades of the knives on each station ha!
Not only did they take *five minutes* to break open a coconut, all they actually used after all that was a few shavings 😂
Were a few shavings not was a few shavings.
When u cook u don’t always use the whole ingredient u can take pieces of it
@@yhonatangoldberg4101 sure, but that's a whole lot of effort for a meal that looks wholly unsatisfying. I wouldn't eat that mess
@@moimeself1088 You would if you just spent 6 minutes whacking a coconut with a hammer.
@Urban Chaos Your comment is the hilarious one, I think I'm disrupting something by commenting about it.
Carla is so good at explaining what she does and so patient, I think anyone could follow her.
That's what I was thinking, too. As long as you're not fighting the tools (mandolin, screwdriver, hammer, knives) you should keep pace with her slower, less intense delivery. Now, freakin' Chef Ramsey just leaves you in the dust:
Ramsey: You ready?!
Me: Yup! Let's do this!
Ramsey: Ok, first grab the whole chicken and set it lengthwise on your cutting board. Pat it dry with some towels -- inside and out -- remembering to remove the internal organs as you go. Ok, now that you've removed the lungs, kidneys, and gizzard -- it's time to ready our bird for the oven. Wipe off your hands and grab that extra long, knife -- wait -- I mean Japanese sword. Now, using the tangenential maneuver, put slits here, here, and here -- but not HERE, and simply FLIP the leg bone out of your way. Once that's done, repeat the procedure on the other side. Once you've got both sides done, tie the legs together with twine using a Yeoman's Holiday slip knot. You with me?!
Me: Uh, not really? What comes after "grab the chicken," again? 😵😵
Ramsey: You Yanks really don't know how to cook, do you? Well, F'n get it gear, sir! I don't have all day to waste on you!!
well chef ramsey, will do it his speed. which is pretty quick, hes not a teacher
.rzr Really? I thought she was AWFUL at explaining! She’s slow, which is good, but she can’t explain anything to save her life. “Get a uh... like a glove”... lol. Terrible at explaining. Luckily, Nathalie is smart enough to have understood what the heck she was trying to say!
+Kibo 52 -- Well, I've watched a few of these now and her "guest" is able to make her dishes, while the other chefs end up eating plain messes. But I see your point... she does stumble a bit. But in her defense you don't normally describe your work tools to someone, you just use them. I'm pretty good at it because I'm an IT dude who's on-call, so I'm used to describing things over the phone to someone in order to fix their system. If I get it right I don't have to drive to the office in the middle of the night -- If I don't, I have to get dressed again and take the drive of shame (ok, not shame -- but you know what I mean).
CitizenPerkins Gotcha. I have worked over the phone and taught over the phone. I guess I’m used to describing tools and steps better. I’m no cook, so I would have had NO idea what she was describing.
I love how chill Carla is, I'd be dying and she's just casually like, oh so Natalie you're just gonna do this and this.
11:18 "Folded in half length-wise?"
"Yes, exactly" ..... so Natalie's zucchini problem *was* the chef's fault
Carla bend the zucchini so that the length was cut in half. Is that not what half length wise means?
Yea. Should've said cross-wise
@@berbz26 Or just fold in half. Any sane person would fold accross the short side rather than the long side.
@@AdamFloro Just saying.. the correct instruction was twist it, not fold it.
@@notAshildr This was 5 months ago, so okay you're right. I don't want to rewatch.

i literally imagined this exact comment when she said that.
Excuse me how in the HECK did you guys get natalie portman to just casually come over
EDIT: ok i get it she's promoting her new film
Because she wants you to eat vegan, we must resist.
Christina Huang she's promoting her new vegan documentary
Probably on a media run after seeing her on Hot Ones
lilfoxy16 And Colbert!
she's on her press tour for her meat movie
I’m so glad I watched this because every other celebrities are like so hard at following instructions, I stop midway and watch other videos.
Natalie’s truly a genius. Love her
Carla : we're gonna have to do this fast because people don't believe you can make a quick vegan dish
*spends 10 grueling minutes opening a coconut with a hammer and screwdriver*
Loving Natalie’s little RUclips food tour. Had to laugh about all of the “We better not hurt Natalie Portman” precautions.
Lol. “Nobody hurt Natalie” is probably rule number one for this.
hey they let her have a hammer and hit a conical end of a screwdriver, so that's something
I would love to see Chris Pratt Tries to Keep Up With a Proffesional Chef.
That would be hilarious... same with Bryce Dallas Howard and Emilia Clark just for their laughs.
Star lord becoming the new chef lord.
With Brad would be great
If he would call himself the chef lord he would bump into Gordon Ramsays ego faster than he likes Oo
Shreyans Jain he's not becoming anything any time soon lmao
I love how Natalie Portman is actually making an effort to keep her board clean.

But I want Vinny to edit it.
Omg yes

Interesting watching these women work together after watching Shane do this with two male chefs. Gordon and Bobby assumed a lot of knowledge in Shane's part and worked fast, mostly showing off their skills while Shane just pretended to know what they were talking about and just muddled through, telling them he was getting it when he wasn't.
This chef was much clearer and more visual in her descriptions and checked in with Natalie. For Natalie's part, she told the chef when she was struggling and gave updates on how she was doing. They ended up much more in sync than Shane and the other chefs.
Nishidake but Shane’s was more entertaining
They cut up vegetables....
shane was more entertaining. i laughed WAY too hard at his videos. but, i agree with you carla gives better directions. I'd love to see how shane would fare with her.
i think that's the point of the shane episodes. I love the dynamic there as it's really about trying to keep up and giving the best youve got
this is almost an instructional performance
More like Natalie is much more detailed and inquisitive when it comes to questioning the exact steps. This led Carla to gradually become more detailed in her guiding as well.
I think Natalie shows a little bit tints of perfectionism in her character. Shane on the other hand...is just a normal person who don't give a f anymore, after a certain point lol.
Pedro Pascal literally HAS to do this! The comedy gold that would ensue!
Hannah Morgan id be THRILLED to see this
Caitlin Right!!! That would be the best thing ever!
I've just noticed watching these old episodes of back-to-back chef. You can see Chris Morocco in the background with an evil grin.
I'm from a tropical country and I have NEVER EVER seen anyone open a coconut like that
We pretty much just open coconuts with a huge knife called a bolo knife. I've never tried a screwdriver and hammer before.
I was very confused as well...
You just open it with a knife, we call it in Brazil: "Peixeira".
Yep, just throw it on the ground a few times. Fun and great stress relief. Hammering a screw driver into it over a glass measuring cup is just insane and unnecessary.
In Indonesia. We using the knife. We call it : " GOLOK " .Open in 2 minutes.
I love how Natalie Portman is such a perfectionist that she organized her plate almost symmetrically
when natalie pulled the screwdriver out of the coconut the first time, it sounded like she killed someone
@@missioncodez hahah
More like uncorking a bottle of wine or champagne.
Here Natalie is getting ready to become a "Lady Thor" in new Thor movie.
Cannot think of a worse dish to make to prove anyone wrong about vegan food being laborous!!!!!! Absolutely hilarious. And I an vegan and even I knew this was over the top!
I agree. I am not vegan, but I can cook a lot of strictly vegan dishes that are delicious and nutritious. This is the worst dish if you want someone to turn vegan. Labor intensive and pretty mediocre taste.
Right? As a vegan, I can say that this “recipe” was teeeeew much. 😂
I feel like Humus is pretty easy vegan food to make, not really a food.. I'd eat it out of a tub though.
The problem is that they were trying to create a raw vegan dish and that limits a lot of what you can make. Like one can’t make hummus for example because you wouldn’t be able to cook the chickpeas. Raw veganism is very limited by nature.
Wait they have Raw vegan now!?
I would love if Carla makes food with Emilia Clarke (the actress who plays Daenerys in Game of Thrones)
omg i can imagine emilia with her giggly self with flour on her nose not knowing whats going on but her determination meets a great dish
That would be amazing to watch
@LackOfABetterWord You don't know what Game of Thrones is? Have you been living in a cave?
Carla "we're similarly petite"... Natalie "I weigh 88 pounds".... Carla "let's open a coconut"
yum, salty oily raw vegetables. I mean, carpaccio.
"Escargot."
You mean Snails?
"Don't you DARE call it that!"
It's Snails...
T4silly that's an actual French food though, that's why it has a french name lol
The chef told her to fold the zucchini slices length wise. They did you wrong, Natalie.
Came here to say this. Natalie did what she was told!
yeah, I felt frustration till the end of the video after that moment!
This is a great idea, for a show! I'd love to see both Chris Hemsworth and Tom Hiddleston try.
Me too 🥰🥰🥰😍😍😍
Chris would just sit there and eat 🤣😂☝️☠️
Yesss
This is a great episode because we get to see one of the most beautiful, talented actress displaying her skills cooking with also Natalie Portman.
That's a great way to shatter a measuring glass.
Measuring glasses like that are made of really high quality quarter inch glass.
That's true... but you're swinging a hammer at it.
yes high quality glass, for logical items to use with it. not constructions tools lol
Glass shards in your salad is great filling.

Alain Bruno Oh my gosh you’re alive. I haven’t seen your comments in like a year :)
Woah!!!! That was a loooong process opening a coconut. In the Philippines, we just hold the coconut, tap the center (where they hit with the hammer to open the coconut) with the back of a thick and heavy knife, and will crack the coconut but not a big crack. It will just be enough to pour the juice to a container. And then you can open the coconut with more tapping or putting the knife in to open the shell.
Pretty sure the Bon Appétit folks know about that technique, but didn't want to be responsible for Natalie chopping her hand off while swinging a big blade around. You know, Skywalker Curse and all...
Zzukiyaki 75 that's smart
@@DanHarkless_Halloween_YTPs_etc except that won't happen because we hit the coconut with the back of the heavy knife. Hitting that way as in the video with the hammer look so much more scary!
+Charitha: Yeah, I know how the technique is done. I was exaggerating so I could make the Skywalker Curse joke, but nevertheless, they probably didn't want to have Natalie swinging a big heavy knife around. It could, for instance, bounce off the coconut, slip out of her hand, and cut her or pierce her foot.
American chefs really use screwdrivers and hammers. Machetes are faster and actually safer (it's the back of the machete. No hands or fingers will be cut.) but it scares people.
"A quick, easy"
*gets the screwdriver stuck*
I love seeing Chris reacto to Natalie Portman cooking in front of him lol
“And by ‘uh huh’ I mean ‘no, never’” 😂
that's the most busy way to break coconut i've ever seen lol
Right? I was just thinking that. There are better ways to do that, lol.
Natalie's plating is actually tasteful. Love it ❤️
What's nice is that doing stuff like this gives the celebrities some appreciation into the love and labor that goes into making stuff like this. Most just have a hired chef that makes all of this for them. So it's an entirely newer experience when they have to do this themselves.
That is a ridiculously complicated and messy way to open a coconut.
They don't even know that one of those three holes is not covered by the shell. It can easily be punchured by a small force. I expected the cheft to know that.
It's not the same when you're breaking it in a recording studio. They just didn't want to cause mess.
Madhujya Hazarika she did say but this one should be easier by the last hole....
the worst way of breaking Coconut
Hangkiw the water is nasty with the shriveled brown ones 🤮 the young coconuts are better
For talking about it being fast that sure was a ton of work for something so simplistic.
TheMMOptimist So true. So many other vegan dishes that can be made and are actually much more simple
Also even growing up eating south Indian food daily (very reliant on coconut) we almost never used whole coconuts. Always just bought grated or shredded coconut from the store.
When I cook vegan or vegetarian it's never one serving, like if I were to make that I would fill a huge platter and have leftovers or bring it to a family gathering, so for the amount you can actually make the work isn't too bad.
Rishab Prakash - Hi Rishab, we never bought shredded coconut from the store and processed whole coconut s ourselves.
Aside from the coconut, which I feel like you can just sub in with store bought shredded, this really isn't a lot of work at all. It's just cutting things and seasoning, you don't even turn the heat on. Without the coconut, anyone can assemble this in 15 minutes at most. If your knife skills are decent and have experience cooking at home, you could do this in 5 minutes sans clean up.
I love Chris and Andy staring in the back. That's what my co workers used to do when I was serving celebrities in Outback Brasil back in the day.
The way they opened the coconut was beyond unsafe
That is a much safer way to open a coconut. Some people take a heavy knife and put the coconut in their hand and hit it. This is definitely safer.
Right? Not good guidance to follow at all!
it is better to put it on fire
Who else is here after Elizabeth Olsen's video? She sounds just like her.
That's what I say.
Same!
I don't know who Elizabeth Olsen is but Natalie and her family are regulars at our restaurant.
Yeah I was just saying that and I love all the marvel women
How I open a coconut:
- Stab it with a knife
- Take juice out
- SMASH IT BY CHUCKING IT ON THE FLOOR
Done
How they do it:
- Literally start doing construction work.
RainbowKittens lmao 😂 sameee my parents r Indonesian and they learnt to do that when they were young
Avery Lyons nobody asked
naomi lee • nobody asked for your opinion too
@Rainbowkittens smashing a coconut on the floor is not an option for a Resteraunt selling food to paying Customers Norris it Hygenic!
Ju jux they can smash it somewhere else
I was dying when it just showed both of the. Hammering away😂😂😂
I love seeing Chris in the background reacting to all of this going down right in front of him
"Today i'm going to show you how to make easy and fast vegan food.. First grab the hammer and screwdriver.."
This is how my Mexican family open a coconut......
1. We poke holes
2. We get the juice out
3. Parents tell the kids “go smash it on the ground outside” 😂😂
4. We wash the coconut since it got dirt on it
5. We eat it
I know this is weird 😂😂😂😂but it’s better than using a hammer DONT JUDGE 😂😂
Jimin the Living mochi we do something similar in the Caribbean. Construction tools are not necessary.
Jimin the Living mochi that exactly how my family opens coconuts too
ME GRAB HAMMER, ME SMASH BROWN OBJECT!!
Better than my white dads way 😂😂 he just used a bandsaw

Carla is sooooo good at guiding people through these kinds of processes, I'm in looooove
I love Natalie!! Such a great episode; can't lie though, every time I saw a shot of Natalie's zucchinis I broke down in laughter
Why are people saying this is a difficult dish to recreate. They're literally just cutting up some fruits and veggies up and plating them lmao
@Jack K Being in the US has nothing to do with it. I was born and raised in Arkansas, this dish was incredibly simple. I would have zero problems recreating this.
@@rovers141 an american should not be able to talk about complexity of food.
I think it's the coconut that did it. Even if it's easy, the prospect of using a hammer and screwdriver as a culinary tool seems just insane and very daunting.
Yeah dude this really isn't hard at all and I barely cook myself...

They are all experts.

for all the people hating on the coconut opening method: Natalie is not a professional chef, and they are in a kitchen with alot of equipment and people, it was slower but safer than chucking a coconut around the room.
No
I usually just hit it with the back of a cutlass and it’s done lol
This was a very safe way to do it by hand.
As a lifelong vegan, this dish looks great visually, but doesn't seem tasty at all. Plus it is a lot of work (and a lot of tools) for such an expensive, non-filling dish.
Guidooo!!!
Hi
a hammer and screwdriver. are not supposed to be used for opening food. the method she used was actually dangerous
I think they made this to be really "entertaining"...
This is the type of dish you would get at a fancy vegan restaurant, where they're making 100 of them a night and so cracking open a coconut isn't just for one plate. It's essentially a watermelon salad.
Looking at the efforts being put to break open the coconut, all Indians be like, "what the heck?!"
I can't even imagine what Indian moms will say after seeing this 😂😂
Well, I'm Indian and yes, not Natalie's fault but Chef's fault.
@@mahadev1483 Honestly, nobody's fault. That's just how they do it. They both look adorable!
No. Like a Chef, she needs to know how to open a coconut. It's wrong and over.
Exactly
Lol I was thinking same. We just hit them on floor😂
“I like acid.” - Natalie Portman
She is so humble and she seemed like a professional doing this dish 💕
“Natalie Portman Tries To Keep up With a Professional Chef” *chef proceeds to make sure Natalie is on the same pace*
Natalie Portman agrees to come on the show, but only after signing an agreement with the director to allow 3 practice runs and editing out the parts where she sneaks a peek.
hells onion yeah she sometimes would grab the ingredients before Carla even mentions them. And them trying to keep a conversation going is so cringy. This would be so much entertaining if it was genuine
basically nothing could have gone wrong with this dish, it's just assembling foods so if you get it wrong it doesn't taste any different it just looks different
Ben Nutley there's nothing wrong with raw foods that don't require any cooking. I'm happy to see some variety.
well too much salt would definitely ruin it
There's nothing wrong with raw foods but it doesn't work so well for this format. It could as easily have been done as a recipe.
Back to back is great when there are things that can go wrong and seeing how well they can communicate issues.
Have you seen the episode where a person put an entire egg, with the shell and all into a bowl of flour?
Nope. Too much seasoning would kill it. And anyone could have been injured with the coconut part, so...
watching Chris and Andy react in the background is the highlight of my life
Wow! This is such an easy recipe I can make when I’m in a rush and don’t want to make anything that’s too complicated
Lmao this was kind of ridiculous. "People don't think you can have quick, delicious vegan food" 17 minutes later they have a plate of thinly sliced veggies. WOW!
I want a vegan equivalent of soft boiled eggs. Thanks.
Maybe a savoury warm coconut milk pannacotta?
Hit that coconut!! Think about how Anakin hurt you!!
The Cooking Corner best comment by far.
Amy Reece many thanks :)

These videos are hilarious, i can't believe i just found them!!!
i wrote a 14 page essay on coconuts and its origin in college. the conclusion: we don't know where they originated. if i could be a fruit, i'd be a coconut. it has so many purposes. there is the fluid for drinking, the meat for eating (dessert and savory dishes), and shell as a vessel (bowl, fibers for jewelry, coconut bra). it works as a ball to roll around as a toy. it's tough and hard and can protect itself. it floats and can therefore migrate. it's oils can be used for cooking or for beauty. i always had this answer prepared in case i get asked that question on a job interview. what fruit would you be?
Brenda Le so u would be a useful fruit, so that humans can breed and farm ur kind forever, skin them alive hehh
Its not just the fruit, it's the whole tree itself. Everyone knows that in my country
Brenda Le a coconut is a nut, not a fruit apparently.
its a nut/seed. pretty sure that was established a while ago.
Brenda Le coco lumber, broom (walis tingting), alcohol (lambanog)
