4 Levels of Lasagna: Amateur to Food Scientist | Epicurious 

"...leave the crispy part for my wife." - Level 3 Husband

He left the crispy part for his wife, that’s true love.

"I'ma leave the crispy part for my wife." get a man who gives you the crispy part of the lasagna

frank is so well known that he doesnt need to say that hes a chef at the institute of culinary education

Level 1: I buy my Lasagna Level 2: I make the Lasagna Level 3: I am the Lasagna

Level 1: I'm gonna add water Level 2: *dont add water* Level 3: I made my own water

I want to see an episode where, after every chef finishes cooking, they all taste each others' dishes, and give their sincere opinion, and maybe share some ideas of reasonable improvement. And I mean "reasonable" as in "you could use this kind of spice", and not "you should grow your own cows".

first time seeing a level 3 chef not going overboard. it was simply a perfect lasagna.

Frank is honestly my favorite level 3 chef

" leave the crispy part for my wife" is he a level 3 chef or a level 3 husband because that was a pro-gamer move

1:39... She's literally cutting the onion with the skin still on... I'm screaming...

it would be pretty hilarious if they started off with Frank dressed as a blacksmith about to forge his own pan

Level 1: My mom told me to... Level 2: My mom told me not to... Level 3: I’ve been a professional chef for 23 years Level 4: I need money for college

Level 1: I don’t believe in seasonings Level 2: I use only Ethiopian spices Level 3: I own the Spice Trade

Hey i actually made fank's version of the lasagna, even the fresh pasta it did took me like 5 hours to make tho mainly because I'm a very slow cook but my brother give it a 9/10 and my mom said was really good! Ty👏

That woman looks so confident w/ her dish I forgot frank was the level 3 for a while

Level 1: no boil lasagna noodles Level 2: salt your water before you boil Level 3:Cry into your pot before giving birth to your noodles

level one: Buys tomato sauce level two: blends tomatoes level three: *So first im going to grow the tomatoes*

Frank: *leaves end part for his wife* That’s a level 3 chef and gamer move right there

Italians: THAT'S WRONG >:( Rest of the world: Hehe frAnK MaKeS ThE CoW

I'm disappointed in Frank. He didn't make the Aluminum foil from scratch.

Lorenzo and Frank are the best chefs on this show change my mind

my favorite chefs: level one: emily level two: lorenzo level three: frank

I love John's vibe so, so much. He just makes everything around him warm and happy.

Level 1 : normal eggs Level 2 : organic eggs Level 3 : I layed the eggs myself

"I'm a Level 1 Chef" "I'm a Level 2 Chef" "I've been a chef since Jesus was around"

Finally, someone else that adds honey to their tomato sauce. I thought I was the only one. I always get weird looks when I say I use it. I think it works better than sugar to cut the acidity of the tomatoes.

Level 1 Chef: I don't season my meat because I like the taste of it Me: Barfing in the corner and covering my eyes.

Everyone is trolling the 3rd level chef but did y'all not notice how he cut out the middle piece and left the crispy part for his wife?😭

Level 1 : i don’t add seasoning. Buzzfeed Tasty : looking for a job ?

What if Epicurious did an episode where 3 level-3 chefs had a showdown to see how different their food can be?

Frank's version is more similar to our Italian lasagne bolognesi. In some areas, people will add pancetta or lard to the minced meat, and in Naples, they also use prosciutto and mozzarella. To be honest, lasagne can be made with anything, as the name stands for the pasta: there is lasagne al pesto, ricotta&spinach lasagne, vegetable lasagne etc... all sorts of variety! Anyway, the original recipe for lasagne bolognesi consists of: Onion, celery and carrots all chopped in irregular sizes (some small, some bigger); Minced beef meat (and you may add lard and pancetta too); Sage; Tomato paste and tomato sauce; Salt, pepper and perhaps even sugar, depending on how ripe the tomato is (the higher the quality of your tomatoes, the less sour they taste); Bechamel: Butter, flour and milk; salt, pepper and nutmeg. And obviously, Parmigiano!

The ultimate video is Level 1: Emily Level 2: Lorenzo Level 3 : Frank

Frank: "This lasagna feeds a lot of people" Me, eating the entire lasagna alone in my room: "Hmm, yes, indeed"

In every "4 levels of" ever: Level 1: Doesn't know what to do, is nervous, and hides it in while pretending to know what to do Level 2: Just really fun to watch and they are sometimes funny idk why Level 3: Very serious big brain moment

Frank: "I'm Frank." Epicurious audience: *faints*

Level 3 Chef saving the crispy part for his wife... I need a mans like that

Normally: Blending makes it smooth In an essay: The mechanical manipulation grinds the tomato pieces into a smooth texture.

Khadjaih wants to destroy everyone's tastebuds with an insane amount of spices

Frank: I'm going to leave the crispy part for my wife. And that people is true love

Why don’t they get a blind professional taste tester. Damn... That would make this soooo much better.

Level 1: I bought all this premade in the local grocery Level 2: I use real quality Italian tomatoes Level 3: First we plant the tomato plant.

I just love to see that everyone is enjoying themselves in cooking

Every single time I watch these videos, I always want the level 1 dish. Simple, comfort, home style food is what I want.

“I don’t like seasoning my meat”. ** writes that guy off immediately **

Level 1 chef: I don’t use salt Level 2 chef: I use cayenne PePeR Level 3 chef: I make my own salt by breaking down the finest rocks

I enjoy these and have seen lots of them. This is the first time I have ever thought that I was better than the level 2 chef and almost as good as the pro-chef. My mom taught me how to make lasagna the right way; the right way is way closer to Frank’s than the other two.

Frank leaving the crispy part for his wife is the kind of energy I like

Level 1 chef : "HI! I'm a level 1 chef" Level 2 chef : "Hey! I'm a level 2 chef" Level 3 chef:" I've been a chef for longer than you have been alive"

Level 1: John Level 2: Khadjiah Level 3: Frank Level 4: Lady with board Level 5: *Garfield*

Frank's lasagna reminds me alot of how my dad makes lasagna, which make me think that my dad makes lasagna as a level 3 chef.

My only down fall is the waiting part I’m the person that cuts right into it once it’s out the oven 😂😂😂

I don't know why they didn't bring Beth the Italian Grandma... Maybe fear of how amazing her lasagna must be

It would be cool if all three tried the others dishes and we got to see their reactions.

I don't care what level they are at, but the fact that they made the same meal but with different ways (own way) I love it! ❤️

8:55 Her reaction to the cheese pull was so cute 😄 I want to try making her version. Looks like it would be savory.

If Emily was here she’d be putting ketchup in this instead of tomato sauce

The food scientist is very smart, imagine when she turns 13

When adding the ricotta mix and sauce on top of the noodles, instead of adding them as 2 separate layers I mix them together on top of the noodles. Make the ricotta much easier to spread when it has the liquid sauce added to it. I use my offset spatula to make a nice even layer.

I think other chef's should try each other's meal and share their reaction. Would have loved to see that. All of their recipes look great. I cook mine using the 2nd and 3rd chefs system.

I think it would be cool if the other levels tried each other's dishes

Is no one else confused about the Level 1 guy hating seasoning? Like did salt kill his grandma or something

Please have these chiefs try each others dishes and let them rate them. Frank, your the man!

The corner piece is a highly debatable thing for lasagna. If you prefer a slightly drier lasagna, go for it. For me, I like 1 crispy edge. If there are those that don't like crispy edges, there be at least 3 pieces along the width side. If Garfield is an actual live cat, he'd go for all 3 in a heartbeat.

Not gonna lie, the level 1 lasagna still looks bomb.

Why not just have one person actually try the three dishes?

Frank deserves the best level 3 chef award

Frank: So for the meat, as you can see I've butchered this live cow...

"The mechanical maninpulation grinds the tomatoe pieces into a smooth texture" When you have 500 words left to fill out on that essay.

"I'll leave the crispy part for my wife" This guy is a better husband than I'd ever be

The lady's turkey lasagna sounds nice, but, I wouldn't eat due to allergy to spicy stuff and she seems happy about spicy stuff, the first guy does it like my brother would do it, and frank's lasagna is freaking awesome, bechamel? wow I gotta try it

I thought I was crazy for craving spicy lasagna 🥵 yessss love this! I learned a lot!

requirements of being a level 3 chef: being PHYSICALLY unable to say “i’m a level 3 chef”

Level 2 and 3 chef: *uses crushed tomatoes as their sauce* Level 1 chef: *Ain't nobody got time for dat*

I really want to try the level 2 lasagna as I’m fascinated by the addition of berbere and honey into lasagna.

Frank needs to do a video like “ only using store bought food “ 😭😭😭. I love him and Lorenzo & Emily 🥰💕

“I’ll leave the crispy part for my wife.” Now THAT is true love ❤️

Finally a level one chef who actually has some cooking knowledge

Add the written recipes for level 2 to your video descriptions please! Often times their recipes are quite complex and delicious

Is it just me or does the thumbnail make the beginner food look better

Toppings: John and Frank: I am gonna finish it off with a helping of cheese. Khadjiah: Garnish it with some basil. Emily: *SQUIRTS KETCHUP* Edit: Thanks for the likes

damn the level 3's lasagna actually looked the best this time

If there was a level 0 chef: Level 0 chef: ok so I'm gonna go to the shop and buy frozen lasagna Level 0 chef: I'm gonna put it in the oven AnD I'M dOnE

I'm seriously more excited about the Level 2 lasagna!

Just recreated the chefs level 3 lasagne.... this was the BEST lasagne I have ever had... absolutely incredible!!

I like how Frank cooks and describes everything. He must be good teacher and his meals must taste very delicious.

can we get more of khadijah ? 😭

These type of videos always gotta make me hungry

Hi, this is a microwave and I'm a level 0 chef..

Get yourself a partner like the level 3 chef. Someone who leaves the corner slice of lasagna for you😪

This is the trio I never knew I needed

All 3 look super tasty, Lasagna must be the most delicious dish of all time seriously.

I wish they'd add a total price for the ingredients used too. They're all working with different budgets.

I like that he saved the crispy part for his wife. What a nice guy!

I've never seen Kadijah before, love her!!!!!

Frank: "Oh I forgot to tell you I'm gonna make my own pot as well"

Finally a level 1 chef that doesn't add half a cheesecake to his food or put ketchup on everything (Edit : Whoa guys thanks for the likes also I lowkey want Steven and Emily back)

"Leave the crispy part for my wife" That's true love right there, cute 🥺🥺

All level twos are amazing

Oohhh i luv the level 2 cheff , her personalitynis lovely and i hope to try her lasagna style laterrr
