Mastering Eggs Benedict: English Muffins & Hollandaise from Scratch | Basics with Babish 

It's awesome 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

Not a fan of the foley.

I'm all for revisions of older recipes, you get better in the kitchen, you understand how certain things work, why not release a video to reflect as much? I also love kitchen audio, I love your style of chill music over the video, but yeah, do like me some Kitchen ASMR.

I definitely enjoyed this take on your content, don’t get me wrong I love your normal stuff. But I think you can definitely work this in to your basics series.

I prefer the old version to be honest, not a fan of the scrapes and other offputting noises that come through

That is such a great idea!

He could make his own Spam in a can and I'd still watch it.

@@scotsman242 I would unironically love to watch a video about making and canning your own Spam

Throwbacks with Babish?

Seconded! This is a great idea.

Completely agree with you!

This, it feels like every ASMR cooking channel and honestly, you are better than this

I was about to say that in an awful way lol, but yeah I prefer the usual format

Basics: This "professional" style Binging: Chill casual style Botched: CHAOS All have their worth

Agreed

Chaos is great for botched episodes. The usual quick-but-informative pace works great for binging. And I think this pace is perfect for the genuine, great recipes shown in the Basics series

This is the opinion I agree with. I like things mixed up a bit.

this version makes me sleepy.

The honesty and realism of the mistakes and outtakes made me think I could do what you do. A B-roll like josh Wiseman isn't plagiarism it's just what it is. Bring back Kendall

Either youve never made eggs benedict, or you make them for breakfast every morning, and i cant tell which

Same here. The new voice over style is not for me.

He’s going for those ASMR views

@@jlshel42 Yes, and I hate it. I have misophonia and noises cause me to have involuntary reactions, such as gagging and scratching my fingers. This is one of the ONLY cooking channels that is entertaining and doesn't rely on ASMR fanatics. If he starts doing this, I'll no longer have a cooking channel to watch that's disability-friendly. ASMR wackos already have a billion ASMR cooking channels to choose from... why can't we have normal Babish?

@@nomoretwitterhandles He can do both, you know...

cooking asmr is great

I genuinely want to make it ngl and if it's a success, I'll make it into an ultimate sometimes breakfast

It's a sometimes breakfast because meals are only sometimes breakfast.

​@@SingAboutSwayzenow you're thinking with your head.

Yep, muffins from scratch is a little overboard; however what has to be made from scratch is the Hollandaise sauce. All the cafes in my region of Australia used jarred Hollandaise, and have grossly bland Eggs Benedict as a result. Basically wrote off as a menu option until having it at a small cafe in California where it was recommended, it was amazing. Back In Straya make it at home once every few months and it's amazing home made too. Once you get the feel to avoid curdles, Hollandaise isn't intimidating to make, nailed it on the second go.

Right, gotta be in the mood for it, but wouldn’t say no if it was in front of me

Totally agree. I think this presentation is more generic.

Second. I only laughed once in this video. Where'd the humor go?

This feels like a thousand other channels out there. So generic and boring.

I'm calling it "ReaSMR", tbh a separate vid with a bunch of the B-roll that's just sounds of the cooking process would slap

yeah more of this please

That's a sweet sentiment, but for those of us with misophonia, it's like watching your only accessible cooking channel die right before your eyes. I'm honestly a little disappointed that he's chasing ASMR viewers now.

@@nomoretwitterhandles i totally get where you're coming from, i have misophonia myself (for eating sounds & rubbing on certain textures) and i always skip the "tasting" part of a cooking video for that reason. i doubt they'll do every bwb video like this! a little bit for everybody :)

I agree

This ^

great minds think alike. i just said the same thing lol

Yeah I don’t think you can beat the immersion blender technique but tbf I think people are more likely to have a regular blender than an immersion one

@@rhinopoley fair point

Babish ASMR: A Sound Most Relaxing

My thoughts exactly!

🤨

',:/

🤨

Like a werewolf boyfriend, eh?

What did I just read

Me too.

It is not perfect. I actually do have misophonia and noises make me want to rip my fingernails off. It makes me nauseous and disgusted. Please do not pitch in with your "but actually", because it makes it seem like the rest of us are okay with it. Babish is literally one of the only entertaining cooking channels out there that doesn't rely on ASMR for views, which is exactly why I gravitated towards this channel many years ago after ASMR wackos starting taking over every cooking channel out there. The handful of other cooking channels that don't do ASMR usually don't make content that I want to see; after all, Babish recreates really fun dishes from films and movies and tv shows--something most cooking channels do not. The last thing I want is for my only accessible cooking content to be ripped away from me because people lack an attention span. ASMR in non-ASMR videos is the equivalent of jingling keys in front of a baby's face in order to get their attention... and it will certainly lose mine.
