I've binge watched probably 20 of these Gourmet Makes episodes over the weekend (I'm quarantined, don't judge me) and I've gotten so I enjoy the roles of all the guests that trickle through. Like Chris is the supportive "You got this, you nailed it!" guy. Brad is the commiserater/occasional partner-in-crime. Sohla is the mother of chocolate who makes tempering look easy but you also know you will never get it. Amiel, Molly, Andy, and Carla are the siblings waiting in the wings to judge/eat when no one is looking. Gabby is the exuberant "I love everything!" person. Dan is the unseen older brother making things harder. Rhoda is the barely seen older sister who sets the rules. Adam sucks. And, of course, Claire is adorable.

[@averylfong4843]

I know this is late, but the reason Claire was experiencing 'better' Pocky and 'not-as-good' Pocky was because she was eating the Japanese ones and the Thai ones respectively. I know because I live in Singapore, where both are available, but the standard Pocky in convenience stores is closer to the Thai version (cheaper, more mass-produced etc), whereas the Japanese Pocky in general is more expensive but uses better ingredients (and IMO tastes better). Japanese Pocky has both the classic 'thinner' Pocky and the thicker premium flavours, while as far as I know the Thai/non-Japanese only has the classic. The Japanese matcha one is also FAR better than any other 'foreign' matcha flavour.

The episodes ARE basically blooper reels which is why they are my favourite thing to watch on KZbin

[@spooks196]

I totally agree, I heard somewhere that life is a blooper reel. If I make some kind of equation out of that Claire = life.

[@gilraen137]

I love that she’s very happy and confident about the results so she tours around the kitchen to make everyone has a bite for those. Claire really nailed this one so happy for her!

[@esla1885]

Love a wholesome episode with low drama once in awhile!~ also could gabby be any cuter???

[@unnatural6edq]

That sweet flavor she's trying to get? IT'S ALMOND. For some reason it's never listed in the ingredients because it's very second nature to simply use it in baking and pastry recipes over in Japan. No joke.

[@via0567]

I wonder if that could cause health issues for people with nut issues! While it might be common practice in japan, it isn’t necessarily that way in America, and many people have nut allergies. (I have no culinary/ingredient listing experience) but I do believe in trying to present all the necessary information to avoid health complications in this situation

[@gibbybiggestfan1949]

Victoria A on the back of the box it lists that the product is made in a factory where nuts are present

[@saintazepam]

It's probably just an aroma and is listed under "artificial flavors". No way they could put real almond in something and not put it in the ingredient list

[@jbt-qu6lm]

[@juliagooglia374]

My thought process exactlyyy

[@Halpulaar]

Maybe she should try a cold snack next. Like gourmet ice cream sandwiches or gourmet those tweety bird popsicles they sold with the lopsided gums as eyes

[@willisnomiko]

Claire already did ice cream sandwiches for BA. Just search the BA youtube channel for it.

[@despicablepenguin]

You mean character popsicles? Maybe gourmet push ups (though that might be easy) or gourmet otter pops? I think the reason is that there's not a lot of cold snacks that's hard to do. Popsicles and ice cream sandwiches are pretty easy to make and im not sure if drinks count though she should totally do kool aid (though im not sure if thats easy too).

[@Paul_Shinn]

She could do Drumsticks or Choco Tacos.

Ok, I'm just over 11 minutes into this video after binging this entire playlist. Claire Saffitz, you're awesome. This is a difficult endeavour reverse engineering things that have had so much put into them. It's a wonderful watching a professional work a process to do as such. The production team. First and foremost, whomever "Found" Claire should be commended. You produce a high quality video in a manner that is understandable and relatable to the average chef, when the source material is so much over engineered. In case that is too arcane. You're taking a product, that is over engineered by huge amounts of manpower and money, giving it to a relatable and likable personality and trying to work it backwards. It's a damn fun watch. This next bit is nothing to do with anything but sheer humanitarianism. Claire. You're more talented than you believe you are. You literally taking things that have had thousands of man-hours and millions of dollars invested in them, and reducing them to 3 to 10 day builds. That. Is. Impressive. Liked and subscribed.
