$396 vs $20 Tacos: Pro Chef & Home Cook Swap Ingredients | Epicurious

[@Xeonerable]

Chef Saul is such a chill kind of guy, I could listen to him talk about cooking for hours. Gina makes such adorable noises when she's transferring things while cooking. lol

[@Sniperboy5551]

I agree, but $396 tacos is… insane

[@DaveHaenze]

@@Sniperboy5551 TBF most of these videos count all the ingredients. Like they get a $100 bottle of wine for a recipe that only needs a cup - so really the wine cost is $33.

Please do this!

I like this new chef! She's knowledgeable but unafraid to say she doesn't know something, I find that quite humble 😊

[@Sniperboy5551]

And she’s adorable, that doesn’t hurt.

[@coalkey8019]

And she tastes as she goes!

She's absolutely annoying. Her voice is cringey and makes me think of nails on a chalkboard. To each their own.

[@kwong2359]

Love it. More cross-culture cuisine meals, please!

[@myboatforacar]

X2 !!!

[@GardevoirBoy]

I love cross-culture cuisine meals.

[@eddietorres5655]

Yes! Without cross-culture influences we wouldn’t have Tacos Al Pastor.

[@pippa3150]

@eddietorres5655 I moved to Mexico 2 years ago and just taught myself how to make al pastor! I don't have a trompo though, so I just slow cooked a pork tenderloin in the marinade. I think that made it a little more like cochinita pibil, but not half bad for a gringa! Haha

[@aeiouxs]

Saúl is always a legend here, Gina was awesome and made it look easy without any complaints - more Gina and Saúl please!

[@katl8825]

Please bring Gina back! She has such cute and can-do personality 😊 I love the combo of her with Saul!

Gina worked so hard, she deserved that shot! Cheers!

[@Vandebirt]

Honestly for Gina to do something very elaborate she went above and beyond! And of course Saul’s chaotic energy and talent was really satisfying. I’ll love to see more of Saul and Gina in the future.

[@Jamie-dz8dg]

Saul and his spoon drop...LOL!

[@Drnaynay]

I would buy Saul Spoon Drop merch if Epicurious came out with it!!

This is an adorable pairing omg

[@nc330-9]

As a Korean, I love to see the culture mash up because both cuisines have such flavor in their foods!

[@lukekiefer5964]

That combo sounds like it would rip a hole in the matrix. Delicious!

[@rushnerd]

More Gina please. She is absolutely adorable and talented!

[@anothertarnishedone5960]

"I just created something" - drops spoon - Is impossible not to love Saul and his humor

[@endrina_]

i saw saul and got excited for this episode

[@skyem5250]

Saúl and Gina are both so wholesome, we love you.

[@sunshine_sas]

I love that this was Chef Saul's first experience with kimchi! He is such a joy to watch.

[@ginnyweatherbee7941]

That was so fun, Gina is a great addition and of course Chef Saul is phenomenal as always😁

[@HexIsme]

I'm a simple person. I see Saúl, I click.

[@brisa4077]

The best part of the video was how Chef Saul said yay it's Christmas

[@eric----]

Chef Saul is by far my favorite chef to watch.

[@HsusSsnsj]

Chef Saul is my favorite because he reminds me of my dad so much and is just as smart and funny as him like having exactly the same humor 😂 (I really miss my dad 😢)

[@taviamckenzie7526]

Gina could be a voice actor for Disney, enjoyed the vid

[@urilgal]

Love Gina personality on video. Also loves that she brought tacos with a korean twist instead of just basic mexican or texmex tacos ☺️

[@roberthughes286]

I love this segment of epicuriouos. It's like let's see what a pro chef can make and oh yeah, what else can a pro chef make? Lol

[@reginadt]

As a Mexican living outside of mexico I’m so depressed tacos de canasta de barbacoa cost 396 dollars when in Mexico I could get that for like 60dollars at a fancy restaurant 😭😭💔 also I adore him so much

[@richardchen7062]

Rich white people need to make money off of exploiting the actual talent :/

[@skyem5250]

396 is the cost to purchase every single one of the ingredients in bulk for a super high end version, the price for a single portion is probably closer to 60

[@reginadt]

@@skyem5250 yeah but for 60 I would get like 30 tacos ahhha

[@madmalkav6540]

I have updated the billboard to say “0 days have passed since last time Chef Saul dropped a spoon”

Saul not only professional and comical, but inspirational. Thank you!

[@Jorge-rw6nz]

So who do we blame for chef Saul not having his own cooking show yet?

[@skyem5250]

I love Saúl's attitude here. Surprised by Korean ingredients he isn't used to cooking with, but he doesn't complain. He creates a delicious sounding Mexican-Korean combo

[@madebywera5048]

YES! Chef Saul is back!!!

[@scrubjay93]

Both of these chefs are adorable - can I please just have them move in with me and I will provide all the ingredients they want?!💚💚💚

[@morganbrasee5639]

Welcome Gina!

[@cyberpunkcentral8500]

I've tried so hard with Kimchi. It's just far too funky for me. I like Marmite, anchovy paste, fish sauce, Miso, yogurt, and every once in a blue moon, a little sauerkraut on a Reuben or a Hebrew National hot dog, but I just can't develop a taste for kimchi, and it seems to be going into everything these days. It reminds me of Southern "Chow Chow," which I also don't like. I can't figure out if I've tried the wrong kinds, or if it's one of those things my taste buds simply do not enjoy.

[@JustAnotherPontiacGuy]

I'm kind of curious as to Gina's recipe for her $20 tacos. Looks pretty simple and easy.

[@MSGVault15]

[@coleman707]

This chef should consider a side career as a voice actor in addition to cooking.

At 6:19, I thought Chef Saul said "That's what I f*ckin' want!" XD

If anyone has a quick carnita or al pastor taco recipe, please let me know! I doubt I have the ingredients and spices in my pantry, but whatever you think is a staple then I will get it! I have never made tacos before but would love to try a recipe that's more on the simple and easy side 🤗

[@BlackJesus8463]

Sous vide reecirculators are pretty cheap now. You can just throw some bacon in hot water over night and squeeze some oj over the bacon tortillas. ✌

pls post more im running out of videos to watch while i eat

[@MaggiMontiel]

Chef Saul ❤❤❤❤❤

[@PaweBanczak]

we need more Gina!

[@IRBork]

I would like this series a lot more if they'd stop fudging the prices so much. Listing the cost of things like individual eggs for the "cheap" versions of stuff but then listing the price of an entire container for the expensive versions just to make the difference bigger is just lame. Like there is no way you bought that bottle of soy sauce for 1.49. It's a solid 3 dollars or more basically everywhere. But then they buy $90 worth of an ingredient that they will use one tablespoon of just so the expensive version can be more ridiculous.

[@ZCSilver]

This is my big complaint too. Like $12 just for the oranges!?

[@OriginalElysian]

I know it's for the clicks but it still kind of bothers me that they use the ingredient prices per portion for the cheap one and the price of the whole thing for the expensive one. There has to be a better way to do this. On another note, I really like Gina's energy! Looking forward to more episodes with her!

[@WOWfruits1]

Wow amazing

[@Wibblybingle]

64% a B?! That would be a D when I was in school lol
