We challenged resident Bon Appétit supertaster Chris Morocco to recreate Candice Kumai’s Japanese soufflé pancakes in the Bon Appétit Test Kitchen. The catch? He'll have to identify what he's making with a blindfold over his eyes, letting each of his other senses guide the way. Does Chris have what it takes to recognize and reproduce these heavenly matcha pancakes - without seeing exactly what they are?

April fools idea- give Chris a SLIGHTLY different dish the second time around and completely make him think he’s losing his mind. Ex. A burger where the first round is beef, cheddar, iceberg, etc. He recreates it. But the second round is a Turkey burger with provolone and spinach

I agree with you, but actually it's mentally quite taxing to do this a lot. You're a pro chef that's being put under hundreds of thousands of viewers to be fooled; now we might be in awe of his intelligence by the end of it, but for Chris, to get things wrong in his craft or cook incorrectly, it's quite demeaning. I think once every 2-3 weeks is fine.

I think one of Chris's problems is that he's so smart and good at what he does is that he always over complicates things. Instead of seeing a pancake and instantly thinking "whipped cream" like a normal boring person would, he goes direct to some complex pastry cream thing. That said, I'd be so bad/horrible at this I have no room to criticize yet here we are.

Can u try putting a dish in front of him without blindfolding him, and challenging him to make it PERFECTLY since he can see it? I'm interested to see how close he can get. One of the issues with seeing it is that he may gain a false since of security and lean too much on it. I think that would be an interesting battle to watch 🤔... especially when dealing with traditional foods of different cultures. The way different cultures do things makes the outcome sometimes slightly different and other times wildly so.

The moment he tested the warmth of the items (this may have been a different video) and admitted his strategy, gave me all the warmth in the world. No other celebrity chef has the balls to do a challenge like this. Chris does it, and also just straight up tells us the advantages he is trying to get. That's how hard it is. You go man.

Starch choices got him pretty good- recognizing matcha and not immediately considering what starches would be most likely in a Japanesque dessert. The recipe as written would have left an unused egg yolk too, and that's not something someone in recipe dev would consider ideal so missing that was a gimme.
