[@alizaali3205]

My favorite thing about this competition is when the chef says “don’t add this” and it cuts to the guys adding it.

[@stinastrickland6538]

If memory serves it's because they film that AFTER they have made the food, so Rachel specifically asks about things she saw the guys do during their cooking time.

[@nisrinaqasna3634]

yeeah rachel mentioned that in behind the scenes it was so funny i also thought how can it be so connected between the chefs and the try guys XD

Keith accidentally making decent noodles because him taking so long let the dough sort-of rest is one of the funniest twists in this episode 😂

[@cexilady3333]

IKR??? Those boys will learn eventually that you always gotta let the dough rest. Keith stumbled into it by accident, and made the closest broth on purpose!!!

[@jae79812]

He rerolled the dough so much he accidentally laminated it and got firmer noodles. 😄

My favorite was the pause after all the ducks just before the tasting 🤣🤣🤣 they were so confused 🤣👏🤣

[@nitashabaig404]

I love how the third judge started out saying that any ramen made without lye water wasn't ramen and then just accepted that any passable form of noodles was ramen lol

[@conormurphy4328]

I think he knew what he was going into and very much lowered his standards.

[@coolgirl312]

He saw what was being served and realized he had to lower the bar A LOT xD

[@KirbyGroovy]

To be fair, I think it was probably the best call for the guys to not add the water which if you use it wrong, it could be a poison.

[@Kelsoly]

So glad Rachel gave the guys safety precautions for the lye water. Can just picture one of them drinking directly from the container! 😂

[@punkspirits2782]

i absolutely expected a cut from the expert saying “do not ever ever drink this” to zack or jared sticking their finger in there and tasting it

[@Tuturial464]

Probably not a good idea giving them acid. Should have given them chicken broth

[@nitedewfairy]

I was a little worried that they weren’t going to tell them.

[@coolgirl312]

This is why Rachel is such an important part of the Try Guys team. She'll absolutely sit back and let the chaos happen, let the guys figure things out themselves but will step in if they're about to potentially cause actual harm.

Yeah :D He should feel proud though! Fourth for a delicious meal with some unfortunate raw elements that would have been fine with slightly more time is much better than fourth for an inedible dish (looking at you, bread...)

[@TheMbmdcrew]

Coincidentally or not, Keith making duck soup with scallions is reminiscent of a famous Japanese proverb: “a duck comes bearing scallions” (鴨が葱を背負って来る) which means “a stroke of good luck” or “things becoming more convenient”. How apt, considering he managed to win the first Without a Recipe episode of the season, and while making a Japanese dish to boot.

​@@Rinno-sempaibut Eugene would have used actual balls for them 😂

[@no-pajamapanda8548]

The moment where Zach was like "To make the broth? You don't make broth. Broth is made. It comes in a box!" Those are essentially the same words my mom said to me when I was making ramen broth from scratch a couple years ago. XD

[@TheAbsolutistsCreed]

I'd be like, "Yeah, but where does that box of broth come from? Hm? How do they make it?"

[@niyaodom1944]

It was ridiculously hilarious to watch him trip about it; I honestly did something similar when attempting to make a soup for the first time 😂

[@sophie3869]

That moment horrified me. I remember asking my mom if we could buy premade stock once and she went on a 10min rant 😂

[@CalliopePony]

In the episode where they got makeovers from little girls it blew Zach's mind that Roman was able to just make a pair of pants.

[@SpringStarFangirl]

I'm just remembering the number of times that I've walked into the kitchen and seen my mom's massive stockpot on the stove because she was making vegetable stock. Chicken stock can be made simultaneously with a nice plain chicken (not bland, just plain- it's great for picky eaters), which is a trick I learned from my grandmother.

[@dm9929]

Zach's hoodie is so bright, it makes everyone else look like they're in black and white.

[@loonkinghan1181]

I'm in culinary school. And this is by far my favorite series on KZbin. It is funny watching how much people don't actually know what to do in a kitchen. This should annoy me but it doesn't it does the opposite it makes me so happy.❤❤❤

[@kimberlya6974]

That's why we value professionals like yourself!!! I am on the try guys level ha

[@connell8]

I looooove the consistency that Rosanna brings. She’s able to give feedback that meets the chefs where they are because she’s been through the good, the bad, and the ugly 😂 She always gives them the benefit of the doubt! I love hearing her critiques vs the experts

[@yummybiscuit5894]

I’m half Jewish half Japanese, so Zach’s ramen made me giggle.

[@pandorua]

I LOVED the addition of Jared, he fits in without a recipe perfectly, his energy is everything

[@mary-gx5cl]

zach’s stunned face when jared got third and was so thrilled was too cute!

[@brullrs]

i adore the subtle playful editing. like try guys editing is always amazing but the tiny little puffs of smoke coming out of jareds ears when he says 'its not that spicy' is so small and funny and like blink if you miss it and it just shows how much love and passion goes into these

[@Kalynah]

💯

[@kdkorz10211]

That Zaxter edit was 🔥

[@EllieEleanor656]

Kwesi was really the highlight of this episode for me, him saying “I got quail eggs cuz they’re cute” was so real

[@katbat1262]

"Wait are we making our own ramen...from SCRATCH??" Smile erupts and the laugh 🤣😆

[@Emily-jk3jq]

Keith I have such good news for you, in Minnesota the game is “Duck, Duck, Grey Duck” you have made a perfect bowl of ramen to match the childhood game

[@carrieblakeslee3602]

Yes!!! “Duck, Duck, GRAS Duck”!!

[@pixiestxNyomouf]

With a Midwestern wife 😢 Becky's shaking her head with a bottle of ranch

[@georgiehere7086]

"Ok there's AP flour, buckwheat flour and bread flour" "AP! It seems like the smartest!" Zach, smiling like a proud father: "He's like me ☺"

[@SpringStarFangirl]

My instinct would be to go for the bread flour because Italian pasta is made with high-gluten flour and soba is made with buckwheat, but apparently you're supposed to avoid developing the gluten that much with ramen- part of the reason for the lye water- so I guess they literally just chanced on the right answer.

[@chrisracano4392]

I didn’t think this was coming back I’m so glad

[@jmason1770]

I knew it would be back cuz Rachael talked about it on YCSWU months ago. Not mention this is their most popular series.

[@florinafernandes9276]

Me too. After last year and them drifting into different things I never thought I would get to see WAR again 🥹🥹🥹

[@karsten_m]

Hmm, can't see any dinos, elephants or apes. Good.

@@florinafernandes9276I didn’t think so either lol 😂I am happy they are continuing

[@hibanizami]

Keith’s face when the judges were reacting to the noodles killed me 😂

[@chicgeek2008]

Jared being Zach's little apprentice and Kwezi supporting Keith when he was running behind. 🥰🥰🥰

[@KW-up2ox]

Jared’s face when Zach got 4th place 👏🏾SENT 👏🏾ME 😂🤣💀

[@groovystargirl92]

I love Mama Rachel just flying in when Kwesi doesn't know how to end his schpeal and just saying: "Just say thank you" LOL I died

[@ericafiala5105]

Jared is so good at looking at the camera at the perfect moments LMAO

[@teaenthusiast2898]

I miss seeing the judges deliberate when the guys aren't there: can that be added in again please!!! 🙏

[@IWantToPetYourDog]

Keith calling it a date that Becky and Matt had is so cute.

[@arianamaria_]

It screams security and respect and I love that 🥹

[@valeria_sue777]

The scream of horror I let out when Keith dropped that gigantic chunk of foie gras, _then followed by a whole stick of butter_ into the broth!

[@hannahmarie3871]

Expert: “Boil the noodles for 1-2 minutes.” E: “I should boil the noodles for 6 minutes?” Kw: “25 minutes!” J: “I have to boil the noodles??!!?” 😂😂😂

[@velinda6248]

Keith making a biscuit like a cat at 21:45 is adorable 😭💗

[@thegentlemanpirate6844]

Once again, I always love the juxtaposition of Expert: "Whatever you do, do not do X." *immediate cut to any given Try Guy doing X*

[@BioYuGi]

I always wonder about that, do they film those segments *after* the judging because it feels like its geared so specifically to what the guys did.

[@ace-of-bats]

@@BioYuGi In the Second Try "producers react" video (which is awesome, btw), Rachel explains that they shoot those videos after the guys cook so they can specifically warn against whatever wild ideas the guys tried.

[@tdelioncourt1268]

oh ok, it makes sense ^^@@ace-of-bats

[@katie2295]

I miss seeing Eugene’s Without a Recipe chaos in every episode but great to know he’ll be back for part two!

[@chuyu22]

eugene would’ve most definitely put alcohol in his ramen

[@riseagainphoenix]

I feel like Kwesi really carried on his energy this ep lol

[@JennaGetsCreative]

@@chuyu22 Agreed!

[@wompwomp90]

I just hope in the second part that it's not just Eugene with Marissa and that theirs interaction with him and one of the two guys

[@katie2295]

@@chuyu22 this is so true 😂😂

[@averyeml]

Keith’s “duck duck duck” intro was incredible, comedy gold

[@abbeymoutoux5406]

i like how at 23:15, the subtitles say Keith and Eugene instead of Keith and Kwesi, Eugenes chaotic energy is present even if he's not

[@hex0578]

Kwesi, rosanna, mythical chef josh, johnny cakes, eugenes red eyeshadow look back... Can already tell this season is gonna be fire

[@TwitchHappens]

You literally named all my faves

[@ald00I]

i think i saw trevor in the intro?? it seems theyre bringing the mythical chaos duo and im ready for it

[@mykaelaseeley1096]

Jared’s excitement at winning 3rd just made my day he was so happy.

[@thatgirl9532]

He was just happy he wasn’t last ironic the soup slut himself came last 🤣

[@Theoriginalelsa]

I have to say this was one of my favorite episodes. I like the rotation of cooks.. as another commenter said its not just "the try guys" its the try family. I like seeing new faces and people like Jared and Kwesi being more involved.

[@shashichandra4850]

I like how jared recieved the positive energy

[@000MIMS]

Kwasi finding out he's gonna make Ramen from scratch is hilarious lol

[@nicoleharding5411]

Jared being appalled about every aspect of this process is beyond hysterical.

[@meshaledavis5602]

I fell in love with these episodes when they made the holiday pies and Keith cooked his weights in the pie 😂😂 that was HILARIOUS!!!

[@jessicalee2297]

The way I CACKLED during Keith’s “Duck Duck Duck” intro 😂😂🙈 Best episode of WAR yet, and both Jared and Kwesi were hilarious additions!
