Pastry Chef Attempts to Make Gourmet Doritos | Gourmet Makes | Bon Appétit

Claire's videos taught me two very important things: 1) If it's a dessert, you temper the chocolate 2) If it's a non-dessert, you dehydrate stuff

[@Corvinus96]

Hi Claire! An idea to potentially improve your recipe. In addition to the monosodium glutamate that is providing umami, the original Doritos also contains both disodium inosinate and guanylate, which are chemicals that boost the umami sensation on the tongue. This is the main idea behind the basic Japanese dashi where Kombu (containing monosodium glutamate) and Bonito flakes (containing inosinate) combine synergistically to make a wonderful yet simple stock. Guanylate can be found in abundance in dried shiitake mushrooms. So what I would suggest you try adding to your recipe in small amounts are 1) powdered bonito flakes and 2) dried shiitake mushroom powder. Hope this helps! :)

Evidence that Chris is an NPC: -He's always, always wearing the same outfit. -He always has a pen behind his right ear, uncapped. -Every time I've ever seen him eat food on this show he sniffs it, makes the face where he squints his eyes and nods slightly, and then takes a very small bite before giving his opinion. -He's always in the background and sometimes he's important to the plot.

But she finally did it well😂

[@rianl5065]

Claire is sooooo competent and adorable. I really like her emotional transparency and grit. I love her energy with Gabby and Chris and .... Brad...

[@jpsarver5514]

Whenever Chris Morocco approves of a dish, I personally feel the validation.

[@jennieblackburn5141]

The effort and time that Claire puts in every episode makes these videos addictive and makes me love her more and more

[@moomoocachoo9025]

Me before the video started: Yay! They finally made Claire do this! Me pressing play and seeing how long the video is: ....damn. I'm sorry they made you do this, Claire.

[@Nyxie007]

Ze Moch I was halfway through before I realized just how long this episode is.

[@angielo4584]

The editing with gaby dancing at 27:48 had me DYING 😂😂

[@lauraartes]

Gabi talking about how latinos can fix anything with tape and wire, gotta love our creativity. In brazil we call them "gambiarras" and it makes the world go round

Alexa, define dramatic irony. _Here's Claire saying 'Hopefully I can finish up tomorrow' 22 minutes into a 46 minute video._

She said in the beginning she is a “dessert person” and now she has her book named exactly like that!

Seeing professional chefs eating taco Bell makes me feel better about my life

[@SeanFerree]

Same 😁

[@TheBlacklist3r]

Lmao chefs don't eat nearly as well as you'd expect. It's mostly cocaine and leftovers

[@deftpink9898]

When I worked at a bakery I ate a shitload of castoff stuff. Like, ugly loaves of bread etc.

Be sure to temper it too

[@carmenp3003]

@@cecefernandes5657 ofc, how could I forget that? We don't want Chris to get mad.

[@sjd8493]

For that she'll have to disassemble and then reassemble the molecules

@alphant1 I like big butts...

[@danhogarty458]

Claire you have the perfect iterative process of testing and improving. Major food products have extraordinarily high amplitude flavor profiles (like Howard Moscowitz describes via Malcolm Gladwell's Ted Talk on Choice, Happiness, and Spaghetti Sauce). It's so tough to get a blended amplitude flavor profile where you don't taste outlier elements separately. Example: generic cola tastes like a bunch of different flavors: cinnamon, caramel, corn syrup vs. a Coke which tastes like a Coke. The difference is how carefully blended and balanced the flavors are.
