Tadpole in the Hole - Breakfast Sausage Dutch Baby - Food Wishes

[@TheRedHoodie]

I’m pretty sure at this point, any recipe I need, Chef John has covered. I don’t know how you’ve covered as many things as you have, as gently and thoughtfully as you have, but please don’t ever stop your generous sharing of this knowledge! Thank you!

[@hugitkissitloveit8640]

Well put 👍🏼

[@koretechx1]

My grandmother used to make a version of this when I was a kid in the 70s! I'd forgotten all about it. Thanks for the happy memories Chef John!

[@pacochawa2746]

My grandma had to hide a sneak sausages to me like we where jews hiding from the damn nazis since my parents where vegetarian and starving me lol. Yes my grandmother was a ww2 survivor and didnt give 2 shits about what the gestapo wanted...

[@Barfyman362.]

4:54 It’s your choice.

[@markasaur]

Chef John, you brighten our day, thank you and hope you have nothing but wonderful days!

[@evelyngrammar]

Spinach - a beginners green. Priceless!

[@urabundant]

Never stop being you Chef! 🙏 You are truly my go too! 😁

[@NickMannFilm]

"We will leave for the stove" is just what I needed to brighten my day. Thanks, Chef John!

[@anitajinfla9762]

*Oh my lords, Chef John!!!!* 😳 You got me with the... You are the Billy Joel of what goes in your tadpoles hole!! *HILARIOUS!!* I'm dead..🤣🤣🤣 I don't know where on earth you come up with your quips.. But I love it.... Thanks for making my day and sharing a delish recipe!!

[@ottopartz1]

I watch every video once, but listen to them numerous times as chef John's voice is so soothing and if I put the volume just below where I can make everything out, I'm asleep in a few minutes flat.

[@goodcitizen3780]

That's an excellent idea. In a playlist, at that volume, even if it took a while (insomniac) the musical intro would make a spectacular dream inducing segue, an interlude to help anchor the luscious feeling of drifting, knowingly and with careful and gentle eagerness, off to sleep as you would on your mother's lap. Excellent idea. Thank you.

[@faithsrvtrip8768]

Oh yum😋 this is gonna be so good! I always have a cast iron pan, eggs, sausage and I love poached eggs! I like Swiss Chard or beet greens over kale so for people that aren't big kale or spinach fans try Chard or beet greens (just make sure to wash beet green tops since they can be sandy). I wouldn't bother blanching Swiss Chard or beet greens you can saute those in the sausage oil and they wilt in like one minute! Oh mushrooms would be great added to this dish!

[@sam.vanrensburg]

The title of this video was just a rollercoaster of reactions and emotions for me

[@hlynnkeith9334]

The soft-poached egg elevates this dish to brilliant.

[@RolloTonéBrownTown]

First time seeing a Dutch baby with any greenery in it. I guess i thought adding veg to one was like dividing by zero but you have shown me it is possible. Neat

[@geraldsilveira8369]

I need a short video on the making of the perfectly poached egg.. Looked amazing

[@anthonypirozzi837]

That looks delicious!! That egg really is perfect

[@thegoodfight426]

Isn't Chef John so delightful! He is a treasure to us all! Oh, Chef John, I do so pray that you are a Christian so that we can enjoy your good humor and recipes forever!!! 🙂

[@aimfuldrifter]

Must be blissful. Definitely gonna make it when my oven gets fixed. Thank you chef! :)

[@stationplaza4631]

Thanks Chef John. What a lovely serving suggestion!

[@roystyan5735]

I'm a big fan of you toad-in-the-hole recipe Chef John, and have made it many, many times. I've even impressed my UK in laws with it. So yes, of course I'm going to try this out. Sunday brunch is now planned.

[@Ian_the_Cook]

Brown and serve for the win!

[@justalurkr]

Kale is our nutritional figleaf on this decadence! Edited to add: this looks amazing

[@anitraahrens905]

A great recipe for a brunch. Thanx, Chef John!

[@gordol66]

Because I'm the Marla of my Maples, I omitted the maple from the recipe itself in favor of drizzling maple syrup over the finished product. I put about a table spoon of brown sugar in the batter instead.

[@jansmith3158]

I wish Mr & Mrs Food wishes lived next door...when I am hungry I would just pop into their home see what Mr Food Wishes was cooking up LOL 😂🍔🌮🍕🍲🧆🥘🍳🍰

[@jbj27406]

I'm pretty sure that I involuntarily salivated when you broke the yolk on that egg. It was quite sudden and brief. Good looking dish.

[@marilynsnider8183]

That looks so good.

[@kimmigreen3086]

You are soooooo awesome Chef John!!!!🎉 I suffer from depression and I love to laugh during your kind demo’s 😂 And as always, i enjoooyy.

[@TrixWithStrix]

Same, he’s a great way to perk up when things seem dark. :)

[@bdallas6972]

New videos make me so happy chef. Thank you

[@infoscholar5221]

As a Welsh/Irish heritage America, I think I'm going to have to get up extra early tomorrow to give this one a whirl. Come for the feels, stay for the food!

[@marthavasquez-weber8653]

Owesome food suggestion. My mouth is watering! I am having this for lunch!

[@ErebosGR]

I'll replace the kale with spinach, and the poached egg with feta. Thanks for the idea, Chef John!

[@billmallin4565]

Please make a Philly roast pork with broccoli rabe and sharp provolone sandwich ... They have made it to the world series!

[@ItsJustLisa]

I love making Dutch babies! I have to try this version.

[@matijsvanhilst5605]

Though the Dutch baby is - as far as I am aware - unknown here in The Netherlands, the kale beings it (back) home being a classic Dutch recipe ingredient.

[@ItsJager]

Oh, this looks so good. Breakfast is the one meal I take time for everyday. I don’t know how some people can eat nothing or a piece of toast and call ☎️ it breakfast. Rather skip dinner!

[@figmo397]

I look forward to trying this. It's a balanced meal in a dish!

[@2acalvinist186]

That looks pretty darn good

[@PurringMyrrh]

The "...and once I've started eating something I do not stop." made me laugh aloud. 😄

[@boomshanka8743]

Lol at "beginner's green". Oh yeah, I will be making this en famille.

[@Purplecow233]

I’m going to try to make this fit into a ketogenic diet by making sure sausage has no breading in or on it, and swapping the milk for whipping cream (or maybe whipping cream and water mix). Looks delicious. Can’t wait to try it out.

[@TheStockwell]

I've finally stumbled onto a useful and reliable Food Wishes drinking game! Do a shot every time Chef John says ". . . and that's it!" You're welcome. Now, drink irresponsibly - while cooking brilliantly!

[@heidipustelniak652]

Love this one! Your videos are so enjoyable!

[@TJ-hz8gy]

I'm definitely trying this soon! Thanks, Chef John!

[@sweetpea6843]

Delicious; we will make this for sure!

[@MrsLeguyader]

I do enjoy your commentary, it makes me smile.

[@allthumbs3792]

Fun video, and wow, terrific breakfast! Now I have to make one!

[@jack_rabbit]

god my mouth is watering watching this lol

[@JIM-fj2dy]

This looks great. I can't wait to make this dish. Thank you Chef John.

[@jeffreyharville1918]

I wonder how that would taste with a traditional Southern sausage? (You know, like a Jimmy Dean, or Southern Pride?) AND maybe instead of Kale, use Mustard Greens? And if you used molasses or pure cane syrup ? SO MANY WAYS to prepare this dish!! Thank you Chef John!!

[@arctain1]

Exactly my thoughts… so I made it with jimmy dean, went minimal on the mustard greens, used cane syrup along with some homemade crème fraiche… it was awesome

[@TranceXZero]

What a bad ass name, I'd love to go into a restaurant and order that right there.

[@pl7868]

Great recipe i like the cold oven start so it's slow ish and browns all over but seems it would also fully cook a sausage browned but maybe not up to temp and using kale is brilliant 😁

[@pepeboy234]

These look really good except for the Kale. I will use red chard instead. Yum!

[@prizepig]

Looks amazing! Cant wait to make em'

[@elvisneedsboatsbennett2455]

I made the chicken mushroom strudel last night and I am definitely making this for dinner tonight. I will substitute the brown and serve sausage with southern style smoked sausage and the kale for spinach since these are ingredients I have on hand. Also, i added spinach to the strudel last night and it turned out really nice.

[@pacochawa2746]

Had to check this out, for sure trying it with spinatch creamed lol

[@jacruick]

YUMMMMM !

[@jes3836]

Please forgive me, but I'm going to sub spinach for the kale. But the idea of a wee Dutch baby pleases me no end!

[@janetsuyama6364]

LoL, so entertaining and educational 😂 Looks delicious, thanks! 👍

[@tomah246]

this looks aaawesome

[@shanezirkle]

I make mine with spinach, reindeer sausage, and cheddar cheese. It’s amazing.

[@Michael-nr2wz]

Thanks Chef. As always... fantastic work

[@edwardstevensjr9506]

John that looks yummy good

[@joshuanattinger9694]

I love all your videos.

[@funFOODfrolic]

This video is so funny and informative! Thank you for making it.

[@meaders2002]

Chef John thinks, "what can I do with tadpoles and dinosaur kale? * A video is born *

[@inthekitchenwithgrace]

That looks awesome!

[@R.C.425]

Nice 😁 Thank you

[@liladance3506]

Perfect for a Harry Potter themed brunch! Love it! Whimsical delicious❤

[@lawrencetaylor4101]

What a great recipe. Have you done a recipe for Scrapple? My Mom used to make this often, and it was never long on the plate.

[@foodandculturenepal]

Wow nice update

[@TheMushybees]

Just made this for the family. Verdict: very good. Will be making this one again for brunch sometime

[@ChrisTallant]

Awww, I LOVE THIS! Any suggestion for replacement on the Kale? My sweetie can't eat it.

[@marcwright4790]

Chef John I love your recipes and more importantly my husband loves them. He is doing all the cooking at the moment because of *life* and while he has become an amazing cook in most ways he refuses to BROWN food. I have tried to explain the importance of caramelization and/or the Maillard reaction to him but he thinks that anything more than a slight light brown/tan on food is “burning” it. Can you PLEASE do an episode on the importance of caramelization and the Maillard reaction in cooking? Signed Sad because of lack of depth of flavor in otherwise amazing food in Fl.

[@dtemp132]

I’m worried my oven will heat up a lot slower than Chef John’s nice oven.

[@margaret9522]

I might have 2 make this

[@dingfeldersmurfalot4560]

Looks delicious, though I'm gonna need at least two eggs on top!

[@chubeye1187]

Toad is the Yorkshire pudding the hole being the sausage. Did I tell you it's quantum physics dish

[@lokidoo]

Never liked Kale much and do love Spinach. I'm thinking baby bok choy?

[@ALERIA441711]

Cab you make this but in a French toast type of way?

[@tinfoilpapercut3547]

Marco Pierre White was known to have made Gordon Ramsay cry, and can also throw a Knorr stockpot at 1200 FPS. I don't want you to start this fight John.

[@TraciMann]

Bravo!!!! Yummy!!!

[@Thepher6]

"beginner's green, like spinach" lmao

[@timbo7188]

This is excellent I would put more sausage . So I will . Thanks John Oh and brush some syrup On the sides of that Pastry .

[@heruhcanedean]

I would add an extra poached egg, sharp white cheddar, and hot sauce. I'm going to make one tomorrow, but with spinach because I have it and not kale.

[@timbo7188]

@@heruhcanedean i agree with every word you Said here . Im gonna do this tomoro .

[@longcatism]

What kind of cheese would be good in this to mix into the egg/spinach mixture before the bake?

[@GreenPorridge19]

Probably cheddar but anything you got is good

[@inamhassanvoiceoffical]

Wow yummy 😋😋

[@AmazinglyAwkward]

As someone who had toad in the hole a fair few times as a cheap and filling meal my mum would whip up for us, the title intrigued me! Looks amazing and definitely gonna give this a go! Edit - as a Yorkshire budding aficionado, I have a couple of things that hurt to see. Maple syrup is an odd ingredient. I understand why you put it in as you explained it well but hmm… Also, if you do want your toad in the hole to puff up, you must have a hot oven and you actually put your baking dishes in the hot oven and then pour your batter in. Really can’t understand how starting with a cold oven will make your batter rise. That being said, you’re right about whisking. Half the reason the batter rises is because of all the air that’s whisked in so you must really beat your batter to get lots of air incorporated. And people in southern England insist on Yorkshire pudding batter is to be put in the fridge to rest. This is untrue, it simply doesn’t need to rest and like Chef John you can use it as soon as it’s all incorporated.

[@brettm3431]

can i do it with spinach because kale is kale ?

[@NoRosesStudioLosAngeles]

DELICIOUS and easy! I wonder, Chef John... If I added another egg, would this batter work as a spaetzle recipe? 🤔

[@reccocon3442]

Nice. Would you suggest wrapped with foil / parchment in oven so will rise a lil' and puffy? Objective: slightly more moist.

[@CountryGentleman]

Would be good with spinach in place of kale as well.

[@oksalbright]

A friend of mine taught me a very simpler version of this, heat a little butter in frying pan, cut a hole in bread and put in frying pan and add an egg. Once bread is toasted flip egg and toast cut out and slide onto plate once egg is done to your liking. My favorite bread to use is potato bread or brioche. Can't wait to try your amped up version. 😋😋😋😋😋

[@vincentmartin719]

This was delicious with chorizo

[@suzibikerbabe8073]

Chef John, have you done a dolsot bibimbap? I had one at a Korean restaurant and it was amazeballz! I'd like to learn how to make it. :)

[@SylviaRustyFae]

Oooooooh... I alrdy know my fiance loves dutch babies and this just turns that up to eleven. Yum. Cant wait to cook it for him :3

[@SylviaRustyFae]

Tho ill probs swap the kale for spinach heh

[@poshdelux]

*I have a food wish please, Fish Escovitch.* I make your Brazillian Fish Stew and Shrimp Etouffee a lot , hubbys favourites

[@chuzzthefuzz1908]

Silver beet might do it. Do you have silver beet in the States?

[@robertmacpherson9044]

Yes, We call it chard.

[@caramonmajere447]

would Almond Flour work instead of regular flour?

[@marugotofromMCGI]

Chef John, should I really buy cayenne? Love from MCGI, Philippines!

[@crnazareth]

In my version I would substitute Kale with Bacon 😋

[@nikkislaktoski4121]

Where did you get the white dish?
