6 Pro Chefs Make Their Go-To Breakfast Sandwich | Test Kitchen Talks | Bon Appétit

[@pucirepu]

Tbh this is the first video I watched where they went back to the test kitchen post Covid, post the 2020 scandal/exodus. It almost feels like stepping into an alternative universe seeing all these unfamiliar faces in this very familiar physical space. Almost like going back to your old high school: the place is still the place, but the people you made those fond memories with are all gone. A strange feeling. (That said still good to see good old Brad, Chris and some new faces though!)

Props to Chris’ low-key shoutout to sandwich structure. Nothing’s worse than spending all that time putting together the perfect breakfast sandwich only for all of your ingredients to slip out when you take the first bite.

[@Jessica-ub3ng]

Made Rachel's Indian Style omelet because, for once in my life, I had all the ingredients in the fridge. These eggs are a game changer. The perfect spicy kick for my morning 🤩

[@missmilkshaker]

I made the tofu scramble that Chrissy made this morning and it was BOMB. I'm not a vegetarian/vegan and this was the sandwich that gave me the most curiosity. Thank you for sharing nonmeat options seem appetizing!

[@kaiju_k5042]

Yum, thanks for sharing that!

[@sb_1389]

What all did you put in it? As someone who would normally eat eggs, how would you describe the texture/flavor? I've only ever fried or stir fried tofu, so I'm curious about other preparations.

[@Bwoodfam]

If you want the egg flavour you can definitely add black salt.

[@mackmaharrey2321]

Yeah but bacon and eggs is better

[@lrhurst3033]

The only problem is an experienced vegan would know that an English muffin is not plant-based. So that's a big fail. Get a vegan in there who has more experience than this. It's very disappointing that she doesn't know that.

a cold place breakfast is radically different to a hot/warm place one. but... a plain focaccia , with carpaccio with olive oil, fresh parmesan shreds and lill dark mustard, with thin red onion slices and fresh basil, is my perfect morning sandwich...

[@macummings7818]

Wow This turned me right on - 😍 I approve! I want it!

[@mwdavis77]

Chris wins. Classic sandwich with the key breakfast components, egg, cheese, and a meat. It also isn't complex like many of the others so nice quick and easy.

[@VexChoccyMilk]

I would only make this sandwich for breakfast because I will never spend that much time cooking in the morning required by all the others.

[@schen7913]

That's silly. Breakfast sandwiches differ by culture and personal preference. If this were 3 years ago the sandwiches would have been mostly the same, just swapping a meat or adding some veg. Limiting both the audience and the chefs.

Just cook the egg until the yolk is almost waxy (medium egg about 6 minutes). Takes way less time and effort than the egg-cream-thing. And leave the crust on the bread - faster meal, more taste!

I was really intrigued with it as well and it's a great way to use up some goat cheese! I have this "muffin tops" pan that I like to use to bake eggs with for breakfast sandwiches and I think I'll make that frittata in it, then make the sandwiches and freeze for easy grab and go. 🤔

[@Gigi-fv9ky]

I would be really happy with every one of these . I don't like ciabatta and goat cheese much , but those are the only things I'd change. Probably my favorite breakfast sandwich is based on Korean street toast. Shred cabbage and a little carrot, add green onion and diced Thai chili, and a little salt and pepper. Crack eggs into that and mix. Cook into a bread shaped patty and melt cheese on top. Eat on shokupan with your condiments of choice which can include jelly, ketchup, cholula etc., whatever you like.

I think the main ingredient of a good breakfast sandwich is ease of creation. Breakfast sandwiches are a portable grab and go breakfast. You're in a hurry.

Salt, pepper, hot sauce and cheese on a Costco crossaint that is lightly toasted and go. That's how I roll, lol.

I pop an egg in the microwave for a minute (pop the yolk so it doesn’t explode!!!), and then do that, cheese, and Mayo on bread
