The French Laundry Recipe: Chef Thomas Keller's Lobster Mac and Cheese | Thomas Keller Recipe

Today, I attempted The French Laundry recipe and Chef Thomas Keller's Recipe, Lobster Mac and Cheese! I learned so many things from attempting this, despite the numerous times I've made lobster bisque.
This was definitely one of the dishes that made me go wow!

I’m a professional Chef at Disney World and I want you to know that I love your channel and I think you are a great cook. Keep up the great work 👍

[@lindsaykchambers]

My favorite lobster Mac and cheese is from the Brown hotel in Louisville.. when my ex husband I got Married we spent our wedding weekend at the Brown and all my Family from out of town stayed at the Galt House.. we had a blast that weekend.. the bourbon bar there is unmatched.. that’s one of my favorite dates is going there to eat and drink..

[@Didos54088]

Thanks for bestowing the new knowledge to me, you are great!!

[@DanielsGongBang]

Thank you so much 🙏

I feel anti chef when he talks and makes his mistakes makes him more human and relatable, this is my first video I watch from you but I would love to just hear you rambling on with your thoughts or comments abt the cooking, love the video, happy to comment and no need to beg for surscribes, already clicked, great video, thnx so much for sharing

[@DanielsGongBang]

Thank you so much for kind comment and suggestion 🙏🙏🙏 really made my morning 😁

[@markkindermannart4028]

I kinda like Anti Chef but his 24 minutes of beta neurosis is annoying when I just want a quick recipe. But his kitchen and camera work is awesome

[@고기요정]

진짜......맛있겠다......😭

[@DanielsGongBang]

핳고맙숩니다!!!🙏🙏🙏

[@요정와이프]

우아..코로나로 후각을잃었지만 넘맛나보여여🤤

[@DanielsGongBang]

헉 빨리 완치하셨으면 좋겠습니다 ㅠㅠ 그리고 고맙습니당 ㅎㅎ🙏🙏🙏

[@airborne99]

Thank you!

[@chuck571]

Your vids are really really good. I just subscribed and will be making the Lobster Mac and Cheese. I already have the cookbook, but watching you really demystifies this recipe. BTW, I wish you included the recipes although I image it would be a pain in the ass for you.

[@DanielsGongBang]

Thank you so much! Honestly, I would love to add the recipe but for videos like this, it feels ethically wrong to do it because it's chef Thomas Keller's recipe that he shared through his books and masterclass 😭. I know food recipes aren't copyrighted but it's just my way of respecting the chefs that work so hard coming up with these recipes. For other recipes, I will try my best to share all the measurements! Thank you so much again!! I am really glad you like my videos! You made my day 🙏🙏🙏

[@CookandtravelwithDenisa]

Such an amazing result! 😊👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@DanielsGongBang]

Thank you always :)

[@davidliu3463]

This is a great channel! What is the size/weight fot that lobster?

[@푸르릉-d8h]

ㄷㄷ 캘러의 랍스터맥앤치즈 너무 잘 봤읍니다^~^

[@DanielsGongBang]

ㅎㅎ고맙숩니다 ~~~

[@AM-dv7cf]

Hi I love your videos! If I may make one suggestion: please take it easy on the jump cuts, or somehow smoothen the transition between them. The jump cuts can get disorienting. Anyway, I loom forward to watching more of your delicious videos!

[@DanielsGongBang]

Thank you so much for suggestion, I really needed it :) Very happy to hear you like my videos! 🙏🙏🙏

[@손남영-u8g]

랍스터는 몇분 정도 삶는게 좋을까요~~?? 항상 잘보고 있습니다~!!!🎉🎉

[@DanielsGongBang]

꼬리는 1-2분, 집게는 2분정도 담궈놨던거같아요! 잘봐주셔서 너무고맙습니다 🙏🙏🙏

[@erwincastro3149]

Hi, Daniel just wondering whats the ratio water to vinegar when you boil or blanch the lobster? Im assuming the vinegar will loosen the meat from the shell right? Im a chef also but still training on new techniques. Great dish

[@DanielsGongBang]

yes the vinegar does help it loosen the meat from the shell :) I believe it was 1/2 cup vinegar eery 8 quarts of water!

[@erwincastro3149]

Hey, thanks for the feedback. It's really appreciated. I hope to see more content from u soon 👍

[@joshuanegrete1236]

Do you work as a chef or did you learn how to cook on your own? Either way, your videos are very professional. Thanks for sharing.

[@DanielsGongBang]

I'm a chef and used to work as one! Thank you so much, I am so glad you like my videos!! 🙏🙏

[@hannahruthsingsit4112]

How many minutes did it take for you to finish the dish

[@laurenyip2515]

omg noo i made lobster mac cheese yesterday but didnt see this video :''''')

[@DanielsGongBang]

Hahahaha I bet it was still very delish ;)

[@손남영-u8g]

혹시 mascarpone 말고 넣을만한 식재료가 있을까요?? 꼭 치즈를 넣어야하면 시중에서 구하기 쉬운 치즈 추천도 부탁드립니다!!

[@DanielsGongBang]

리코타치즈도 괜찮을꺼같아요! 리코타치즈 구하기어려우시면 아마 크림치즈도 될꺼같아요! :)

[@hilly971]

Can you do the Oyster and pearls dish? I want to see your take on it

[@DanielsGongBang]

I can give it a go for sure 😁

[@hilly971]

Big Thank you

[@scottm9605]

When i made this dish i found it to be lackluster compared to some other recipes in this book. Good certainly but there are so many things I'd rather do with lobster.

[@rondam4240]

It's awesome video!! Could you show me 'oysters and pearls' by thomas keller? I have french laundry cookbook and I heard It's his signature dish but I don't understand how to make it. Becase i'm korean so there are many things I don't understand. If you have cookbook, it's on page 23.

[@DanielsGongBang]

I can definitely try in the future! Thank you for watching :) 고맙습니다🙏🙏🙏

[@laurenyip2515]

i knew i shouldve gotten dill

[@iono1019]

Where did you get the lobster oil?

[@DanielsGongBang]

This one is from a store :)

[@chuck571]

Hi Daniel! I have a question for you regarding this recipe. I'd like to make the lobster stock the day before I make the dish. Is it safe to par boil the lobster, make the stock and refrigerate the not fully cooked lobster for a day before you finish the dish?? Will it hurt the quality of the recipe if you do that?

[@DanielsGongBang]

You can totally do that, in fact that's why chef Thomas Keller came up with this method :). Just make sure to cool down the lobster meat as quick as possible, maybe keep them on ice, etc. I hope you will like the result!! Thank you for watching 🙏🙏

[@chuck571]

@@DanielsGongBang Thank you so much for responding so quickly! I hope that the New Year is very good to you and yours.

[@chuck571]

@@DanielsGongBang I made this for my Mom's birthday and she said it was the best meal she's had in years! Thank you for taking the time to respond to my questions. I'll be trying other recipes on your channel and can't wait!

[@DanielsGongBang]

@@chuck571 wow I am sooo happy to hear that!!! Thank you for letting me know how it went, you made my day 👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@kenny222]

the only cheese in this mac and cheese in the touille?

[@wreck.create.MAK0]

i have to say- i prefer your instincts to include the tomalley. yes its not as clean and refined a flavour- but that tends to be the way with fine dining. they prefer clean and refined flavours rather than grittier , more flavourful choices. in this case- i think your instinct is right- but would be interested to see you compare .

[@DanielsGongBang]

Yes it has a very clean lobster flavor indeed! Interesting how much they also reduced this to make the flavor so concentrated while keeping it so pure. I will do a comparison video some day for sure! Thank you for watching 🙏

[@benjaminttp]

How did you make the coral oil?

[@DanielsGongBang]

This one I used in the video, I haven't made it myself actually. Normally, you would slowly confirm lobster coral in a neutral oil or clarified butter, and add some tomatoes and paprika for additional flavor and color!

[@seattlehoon6616]

hi chef! what is parmigiano reggiano? Is it cheese?

[@DanielsGongBang]

Yes it is a type of cheese from Italy :)

[@HTMLguruLady2]

How much cream do you add? Please add the recipe amounts to the description.

[@guapodel]

Is lobster oil store bought?

[@DanielsGongBang]

Yes it is :)

[@guapodel]

@@DanielsGongBang I watched Thomas Keller masterclass on this recipe. He doesn’t show how to make it. I’m just gonna buy as well.

[@cookieez4u2]

I just died from someone cutting the pipeline to my throat, 'cause I would die to taste this Sh$t.

[@DanielsGongBang]

😂😂😂 thank you so much for saying that, it made me laugh hahahaha

[@gregbeaudry]

I literally just made my wife and daughter regular Kraft Mac n cheese and now I feel so inferior😅

[@DanielsGongBang]

😂😂😂 craft mac n cheese is also very tasty!

[@tedrao1393]

I'm sorry, lobster oil? is this just olive oil that's been heated with lobster shells?

[@DanielsGongBang]

That's exactly what it is! Sometimes adding corals/heads too, for additional flavor :)

[@laurenyip2515]

you missed some orzo on your plate 😔

[@OneKindWord]

Turning sound down by 6 clicks makes sound bearable.

[@billpar]

sorry while I love your details in making the dish , using your knife to put the lobster to sleep is the most humane way to prepare it first

[@Mo_Ketchups]

I’ll get right on that “lobster oil”-I’m sure it’s between the canola and Manteca, right. 👀🥸
