Chris Makes Chocolate Waffles | From the Test Kitchen | Bon Appétit

[@candacecuthbert9780]

Chris is definitely the dad of Bon Appetit. He's an expert on everything and everyone values his opinion and seeks his approval

[@3d-flushedemoji]

and andy is the daddy of bon appetit?

[@50ShadesOfEndo]

Candace Cuthbert Carla the mom, Brad the uncle, Claire the aunt, Andy and Molly the son and daughter

[@50ShadesOfEndo]

Felt weird typing this out

[@candacecuthbert9780]

Agree with all except I'd say Claire's the big sister who graduated and moved out 😞

[@oh033]

Brad is the uncle that we look up to. "Dang dad, uncle Brad is sooo cool."

[@Chris-pt6hh]

This channel has changed what I think a "pinch of salt" is.

[@5dashes]

"A few tablespoons of olive oil"

[@maxfischer5586]

As a non american it took me a moment to realize they are using pinches of kosher salt, not the regular super strong table salt

[@78625amginE]

Your comment wins. You literally made me “lol”

[@isabellaoliveira2028]

@@maxfischer5586 yeah i don't even know where i can get kosher salt

[@fartyfat6539]

@@isabellaoliveira2028 think of your most smanshyfancy store, they probably have it. Then you look at the price tag and decided regular salt is just fine

[@AudreyN]

Chris refusing to use a food processor is probably the most relateable thing I've seen on BA.

[@owlislike]

Especially if you do not have a dishwasher...a food processor takes up 3/4 of the rack and adds in some sharp as hell dangerous business. No thanks.

[@alwaysrushil]

Yeah because I have never heard of the ingredients used the waffles.

[@SavageGreywolf]

a food processor's primary function in the kitchen afaict is to make a dirty food processor

[@TheEmmakathryn]

I refuse to throw mine out but am never willing to use it for anything 😂 i'll hand mix/whip/shred every time.

[@Valmon14]

Chris looks like he might be the hardest guy to please in the test kitchen. So I just assume every recipe from him is automatically among the best.

[@KentuckyChicken2]

...or everyone just says it's so yummy because they're afraid of him 😂

[@belle9567]

Dominic Monceda I remember Claire saying once that Chris was the hardest to impress/please

[@Gobbersmack]

He's BA's Simon Cowell.

[@acedianPianist]

Chris is definitely the hardest to impress, lmao, but he's also not super judgmental and will give total full disclosure if he's biased against something for personal reasons. I give the guy mad respect whenever he comes on screen.

[@christines5684]

in the recent It's Alive with Brad (mustard) he mentions how it's really hard to get a food compliment from Chris

[@nicolle2126]

It's like he simultaneously cares way too little and way too much about food lmao. I'm all for adding chris to the regular BA cast to round-out the roster

[@the77don]

he already is. you catch him in basically every BA video.

[@nicolle2126]

Beef Testy I meant as a host :)) I think he's only filling in for Andy but might go back to being cameos in future vids

[@the77don]

@@nicolle2126 ahhh I get ya. He has his own videos posted on BA, but I see what you mean. Just more regular Chris, which I'm also for!

[@nicolle2126]

Beef Testy Thank you for understanding Mr. Beef

[@whatisthis-uw9ok]

I like Chris's videos compared to like Claire's because I'm not constantly thinking about having sex with Chris during and I'm able to focus on the cooking

[@IluvUFCgirl4eva11]

"Somebody probably used this to chop garlic earlier today." Everyone looks at Brad...

[@peshgirl]

Gotta get that allicin working...

[@back2back22]

That Allicin is what’s good for you...I believe

[@intraum]

it's like a 2-part epoxy

[@wittwer427]

you remember allicin, right vinny?

[@NotLuigi]

[@candacecuthbert9780]

Chris spilling the beans on Andy is hilarious 😂😂

[@recoil53]

And yet why would anybody check in when they are on vacation?

[@ellw7830]

"Andy's on a mystery vacation, no one's heard from him in a week" the parallels to The Office are blindingly clear

[@veenac6780]

Am I gonna make this? "No" Am I gonna stop watching it? "Hell no"

[@XxVelocityxshot51xX]

good video, chris is underutilized cause he's articulate which i enjoy in this kind of thing. i like to know the rationale behind adding each ingredient, what flavor it brings, why its this kind of flour or whatever and not the other, what happens to it throughout cooking, how its interacting with other stuff, etc. chris does this well

[@p_eople6789]

Yes, you summarized why I always liked Chris' quiet intense instruction. He brings a lot more to the 'why' of each process and makes the video more interesting versus entertaining for a Brad video. Now and again he has a relateable gripe that makes me feel better that I'm not as great of a cook as these BA folks. Also loved learning new things like "carapace" in his lobster video.

[@masha7377]

Claire does the same thing and I love it! But I also love Brad and to a certain degree Carla's more experimental approach to cooking. I feel like a mixture works best for me. :)

[@ghrohrs2025]

You should be watching America's Test Kitchen, not the hippy, immature play kitchen of Bon Apetite. These kids are so not professionals. I guarantee their parents bribed BA into hiring them. Can't stand young, know-it-alls pretend to be experts. Shame on BA for stooping this low and hiring inexperienced, unprofessional kids to run their channel. Sorry kids, I won't be watching any more of your kitchen play dates.

[@shko640]

Chicago_G3 how much did they pay you? lol

[@KnAtiOn12]

CO_NYG56 just because they have fun doesn’t mean they aren’t knowledgeable lol. Your life must be so exciting

[@nicholausjamesjay83]

I'm on Team Brad!

[@Sazed0]

I think of it more like a sitcom. Every episode is its own thing but the same characters rotate in and out. They even have recurring jokes.

[@ReapTheWhirlwind]

Chris is like my mom in the kitchen. A meticulous self-critic who wants you to admit that the food is both great and terrible at the same time.

[@user-lf1os3sh5c]

Chris is a rare treat! I enjoy his vibe a lot. Hopefully we will see more content featuring him!

[@Ratedteen]

I've been watching BA for a very long time. Honestly I never thought my favorite personality would be Morocco. I love all the personalities, but man he climbed all the way to the top fast for me. I genuinely enjoy every aspects of his videos. Please make more

[@tferg6738]

“You don’t have to fake it” love the call out for honesty lol.

[@magentalilies8012]

Chris has that constant jugde-y look which is so intimidating. Resting Judge-y Face.

He is the Dad of BA.

[@MrCritiqueish]

Oh I remember!! Chris - Dad Andy - Daddy Brad - Uncle

[@TheGoldenwolf522]

Like imagine having a job interview with him

This just reinforces my love of BA staff. I love how Chris knows what he’s about. He knows his recipe, he doesn’t forget his ingredients, and does it all so well while staying oh so clean!

[@Fluera]

I’ve found that the easiest way for me to quickly remove thyme and rosemary from the stems is to thread the base of the stem through a mesh strainer and pulling it through the bottom until it punches all the leaves off :)

Opinion: it should be socially acceptable to eat breakfast food 24/7, especially these waffles.

Americans are so weird... For us (norwegians), waffles are a dessert or just something you make when having guests over in the afternoon

[@Obyvvatel]

you know adding gluten-free to the title would seem like marketing 101

[@XellosTheDragon]

They let the food speak for itself instead of their keyword marketing :)

[@atlasstudios]

if they added gluten free, i wouldnt have clicked.

[@KHobbies_cina]

@@XellosTheDragon it'll definitely help. Imagine if its vegan added to a recipe video. It's all the rage.

[@gawainwoolfrey6229]

Yes! There needs to be a super like button

[@euniquedavis5495]

Made these for my whole dorm floor and they liked them! They were savory and you can definitely taste the chocolate! At first it was hard to get the feel of when they were done but once you get into it you’re flying! I did use less coconut oil and upped the chocolate. Didn’t have the ingredients to make the crunchy topping and that’s what this needed. One of the girls on my floor almost cried she was so happy! She has a gluten allergy and she loved these.

[@Psykel]

My life changed when I got a waffle iron with a ”color” setting and a built in timer. Perfect waffles every frikken time!

[@sarahelmiraroystershelton1888]

Dear Chris, my dream is to make Morning Cupcakes. Cake - Rolled oats, banana, salt, honey, water, butter, vanilla extract, dried fruit. Buttercream - Rice pudding as buttercream frosting (don't even know if that's possible but would be groundbreaking to actually make rice pudding behave as frosting) Toppings - cinnamon dust and pieces of sorted nuts. please change the ingredients, just wishing to use all breakfast-y ingredients styled as a cupcake.

[@zamirazam6099]

Chris method of explaining and executing all of these are very relaxed. He explains a lot, shows that he loves and knows what hes doing. Should hv a chris section, longer (time) but im sure it cater to certain crowd that most certainly value his views.

He seems so put together and knowledgeable that I would trust him with my life.

Jessica Brock Yes he user lot of mind thing. I cant find all thing in my kitchen

[@Cyrribrae]

But once you've got the buckwheat, the other critical ones shouldn't be hard to find.

[@masha7377]

The whole buckwheat is the only thing that I'm not sure I could find at any ol supermarket. And for that, I'd just have to go to the health food store or supermarket with a bigger health aisle. :) When I bought "fancy flour" like spelt or buckwheat, flax seeds etc. for the first time a few years ago, I didn't think I'd use it much. But since, I've found many recipes and use them a lot. I think it's great that they sometimes introduce us to rather unusual ingredients. :)

[@RC-de3vy]

Magic is never easily attainable.

[@krammy9goggler]

if the buckwheat groats are the part that’s difficult to find you could probably replace them 1:1 with chopped almonds, walnuts or pecans and get a perfectly serviceable result
