Pastry Chef Attempts to Make Gourmet Hot Pockets | Gourmet Makes | Bon Appétit

Join Claire Saffitz in the Bon Appétit Test Kitchen as she attempts to make a gourmet version of Hot Pockets!
Everybody remembers where they were on that day in 1983 when Hot Pockets first appeared. It was a giant leap into the future. A miracle some called it, for nobody could seem to say where the Hot Pockets came from. They just existed. Food, and therefore humanity, would never be the same again. The efficiency, the culinary explosion, a modern miracle that truly served as an evolutionary step for all of mankind. An entire meal in a pocket that you could hold in your hand. Joy in the streets was met by existential dread. Where could humanity go from here? Had we truly reached our civilizational zenith? Religions formed over night, some might even say cults. But then a second flavor appeared. And then a third. And now over fifty, each richer and more complex than the last. Since that day in 1983, humanity has been on the precipice of our next phase of being, but for one obstacle in the way. How are you supposed to eat a Hot Pocket without burning the hell out of the inside of your mouth? I mean, come on. It’s crazy hot, but it’s seriously impossible to wait just five minutes until it comes out of the microwave. No, I need it now. Give me that Hot Pocket.

To be honest, her day 1 results were a gourmet version and looked the most appealing. Granted it wasn't a direct visual copy, but arguably it was a gourmet version of what a hot pocket is. Her next 3 days of revisions were attempts to replicate the look - though amping it to 7 cheese was a nice "f you" to the failures along the way.

Who's the person who has to go to the grocery store and buy, like, twenty different boxes of whatever Claire's making LOL

[@cnsummers4086]

Right, like I wanna see them on camera 😂

[@Zygro98acopalypse]

Probably Gaby since she’s in charge of stocking the test kitchen! She talked a little bit about what her job entails on a recent episode of the podcast!

[@Bellas61]

@@Zygro98acopalypse she's in charge of stocking by ordering things. Manager doesn't run out they probably have interns and such

[@sarahmaywoodruff1443]

Probably an intern or some stores do deliver.

[@alexh853]

I just imagine like someone at a store getting like 10 boxes and you just see them in the aisle and your like... "claire is at it again isn't she?"

[@GhOs7FiGhTa]

16 minutes in Claire: "Did I do too good a job again?" Sees another 30 min in video Me: "oh...."

Claire: *does good day 1* Everyone: "I want one with ___"

[@MarshMelloKun]

whenever claire says "it seems easy" or "it looks easy to gourmet" i always check the length of the video

[@emjenkins464]

I could tell this one would contain a full mental breakdown as it's twice the length of an 'easy' episode.

Claire is like the BA Icarus

[@jealousharibo]

The truth is these always take two to three days to film. The length of the video depends on the editing and BA state to give us longer a Claire videos since they observed we like it. It had little to do with what's actually going on in the video.

At <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1930">32:10</a> it reminds me of a little girl going to her dad and saying that the neighbor fell and scratched himself or something happened at school and Brad is just the dad listening but zoning out cooking dinner for the family. It’s somehow so wholesome and makes me feel fuzzy inside

Sometimes I feel like they make Claire try to mimic the tasked food rather than make it gourmet. Like this episode was a good example of her making it gourmet but telling her it was too much like what??

[@bebos3001]

Was thinking the same thing.

Yeah, the first batch she did looked incredible. Tbh she could've stopped there. I'm sure it tasted 20 times better than the original
