It’s 1:30 am, Paris time, and I just made Kenji’s egg sandwich. It’s not my first ones, except this time I also made the English muffins from scratch. Bliss. It’s so simple and yet there is this trick of folding the two pieces of bread together with the eggs. I’m feeling I’m happy to be alive to live those things. In between bites I danced alone in my workshop, singing some non-existing song. Night, food, nothing special and everything special.
It was barely a small piece that landed on its coat. It didn’t land on the dog’s skin with nerve endings. And a piece that small wouldn’t carry that much heat. He’s frying eggs not scorching steaks.
I dream of one day having a fridge of this size and filled with this content. That must be like a dream...think of anything you wanna cook, open the fridge and BOOM, all the ingredients are there.
How the heck can you tell someone is "a little"drunk on a cooking video. Who cares? Kenji is the master late night cooker.At least he's eating while he's drinking!!
4:22 "ok so if i throw the eggs in and try to flip these english muffins into the pan with the cheese on top, it'll fall off. Oh I know, I'll just put the cheese under the ham so it doesn't fall out ok let's do this"

This is the first meal of yours I've attempted, having been an avid follower of your channel for a while, especially your late night sandwich episodes. Although I've been implementing your techniques of patience and butter-supremacy, this seemed to me a decently moderate difficulty sandwich to attempt, and I'm glad to report it went with nearly perfect success. I used bagels instead of english muffins, cos that's all I had in the house and, because I live in Australia, I used regular bacon... not really sure what "Canadian bacon" is. Might use more chilli and less shallots in the future (shallots is our word for spring onion). And less cheese. Or better cheese. Not sure yet. Also, cracked a beer (Cass from Korea, terrible but a great flashback from my holiday with the boys) halfway through and chucked some mf'ing Tabasco on it. Tabasco is fking dope. Top tip from you. Your channel is so relaxing but also challenging, and doesn't shout at me like other cooking shows. It's all about the art and the technique. Also, I've never really beat eggs into an omlette like that in the bowl before, so thank-you for that as well. Please keep making stuff :)
"Canadian bacon" or "Canadian-style bacon" is the American name for a form of back bacon that is cured, smoked and fully cooked, trimmed into cylindrical medallions, and thickly sliced.
I just tried to recreate this as a breakfast - while I failed miserably to assemble the sandwich the same way, it was still very delicious. Thanks for this awesome idea Kenji!
My first time was a bit of a disaster, too. I've been practicing. This morning's was pretty good! I find it easier to use only 1 egg. I thought 2 was overwhelming for me-self.
@@Al-fm8kh The egg residue left in the shells will probably start to smell after some time and it is not that hard to just throw the shells in the bin.
What experience and time can do make something look SO easy to a person who is mere spectator. What a candid moment in the life of a true chef. 🙂👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Also, I've never really beat eggs into an omlette like that in the bowl before, so thank-you for that as well. Please keep making stuff :)
"Canadian bacon" or "Canadian-style bacon" is the American name for a form of back bacon that is cured, smoked and fully cooked, trimmed into cylindrical medallions, and thickly sliced.
Canadian bacon is like a ham in my opinion

I just tried to recreate this as a breakfast - while I failed miserably to assemble the sandwich the same way, it was still very delicious. Thanks for this awesome idea Kenji!
Lupus Immortalis practice, you’ll get there
My first time was a bit of a disaster, too. I've been practicing. This morning's was pretty good! I find it easier to use only 1 egg. I thought 2 was overwhelming for me-self.
is it scrambled eggs with jalapeno, scallions. with english muffin, cheddar, and ham? Did I miss anything?

This guys late night cooking skills are my normal cooking skills lol
Okay leaving empty eggshells in the box is actually evil.
Nu
🤣🤣🤣
Why? He leaves them all together and composts them with the box
Jacob that’s kinda disgusting
@@Al-fm8kh The egg residue left in the shells will probably start to smell after some time and it is not that hard to just throw the shells in the bin.
Hey, you found your bench scraper!
What experience and time can do make something look SO easy to a person who is mere spectator. What a candid moment in the life of a true chef. 🙂👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Kenji you've been my saving grace on these long sleepless nights.
You found your bench scraper!
I'm just seeing amount of utensils he used , in one pan sandwich
True, it is a hassle to clean. But it makes cooking much easier.
same. i probably would have just used a chef knife and fork for everything.
Same, I would have just used a pair of chopsticks and a knife
Please start these again, these bring me so much comfort for some reason
I originally was like, this man high, but that folding blew my mind.
