What Did Monet Eat in a Day? 

"Our man Claude liked to arise early: at 5 AM or first light" Me: *looks at time* - 5:12 AM, *Just got in bed and was gonna watch a video before sleeping* .....

i never heard anyone say the "l" in "yolks" so distinctly lolol

Man, I wish I was so in debt that I could afford a studio boat on the Seine. :P

You are, after all, the Monet of what an impressionist eats in a day.

I really missed these videos! I love them so much and really appreciate all the time that goes into them

The art cooking series is so wonderful! Watching the food be prepared and eaten really connects you to the artist's life and their idiosyncrasies, like the peppery salad. I'm always so excited to see any video in this series!

Oh my goodness gracious I really thought you were gonna chop chop the chicken right there and then.

I love that you keep the imperfections. It really adds to the video. I loved watching this!

I enjoy all your videos but the Art Cooking series is my favorite!

Wait, I need to know Mary Lou's back story. Did you borrow a chicken just to psych us out like that?

6:13 so what your saying is Monet borrowed many Money from Manet?

Great video as always but is no one gonna talk about how Sara pronounces yolks

I visited his house and garden in Giverny. It’s well preserved and looks like his paintings.

This video brought me a piece of mind that I can't describe

This is absolutely my favorite series on the internet! It's so thoughtful and I love seeing the connections between diet and creation--and watching you make delicious looking food is definitely a plus.

Oh my god I breathed a huge sigh of relief when you let Mary Lou out of the bowl 😂

Monet has been one of my favorite artists for quite a long time, he and O’Keeffe (Who I am distantly related to,) are some of the most wonderful painters of their environment, with so many colors and interesting methods. I was happy when you covered her, and I am overjoyed to see you covering Monet now. Thank you so much for your videos!

monet and his dear friends degas and renoir are having lunch, talking and laughing............an art collectors wet dream

I imagine in the future other art historians will be recreating meals from contemporary artists post-2010, staring with avocado toast for breakfast. How funny that will be to see!

Watching this can't help the mental image of John Green being forced to eat over cooked eggs.

Plein air doesn't mean painting outside, it means something more along the lines of "the great outdoors", he enjoyed the great outdoors.

Yay thank you for making another art cooking!!

An Art History lesson AND a Binging With Babish style cooking voice over? I might’ve found my new favorite channel

i was scared you guys will kill mary lou the chicken

I know he is no painter, but I would really love to see someone try to recreate Erik Satie's eating habits^^

This video was so fun and interesting, as always! Would love to see you tackle the eating habits of an Italian Renaissance artist - Michelangelo or Leonardo perhaps!

I thought this said “what does money eat in a day”

Great job! I have "Monet's Table" and made his onion dish and made his Gateau a L'Orange for my husband's birthday. Unfortunately, I didn't get to Giverny when I was in France and wish I had. Thankfully we can visit on the internet, the next best thing to being there, but not quite the same! I'm a professional artist and saw the Monet exhibition at the Boston Museum of Fine Arts in 1998 which was fabulous. The famous lily pond paintings are huge and wrapped around the whole room in one big curve! One of my favorite Monet stories other than slashing his paintings if he didn't like them and throwing them in his pond in a fit of anger is when he died. They had wrapped him in black and then a close friend said , no, found a beautiful piece of colorful floral fabric and they wrapped his body in that instead....apropos! P.S. partially blind in one eye as well, blind artist with 20/20 in right eye! Thankfully! Merci for sharing!

I love how you blend the food, artist’s life and their work so seamlessly! Beautiful!

I love Art Cooking and Monet, so perfect combo.

Nobody should ever make their own puff pastry. Unless they like to waste time.

This is simultaneously one of the cutest, most interesting and certainly funniest videos on RU-vid I've ever seen. I could not spot laughing at the oh so sympathetic tablespoons/cup of sugar-desaster. Wonderful.

I’m so confused by how you pronounce “yolk.”

I love this series so much, thanks for putting so much effort into research and cooking

8:47--Tarte Tatin, yum. That one looks lovely. I'll definitely be trying it. I've made Tarte Tatin before, but previously used another recipe (from Food Wishes) and I always swapped out the apples for pears (apples are delicious, of course, but I love pear desserts, too). This was a wonderfully relaxing video to watch. The combination of history and cooking, the calm presentation, and the narrator's soothing voice were all fantastic. If you take requests, I'd love to see a video on what a less wealthy artist at the turn of the last century would have had on his table. I'm writing a novel set in 1920s France, one of its characters is a poor painter, and whenever possible, I like to cook/taste food before I feature it in my work. In other words, I never feed my characters things I haven't at least tried myself. :)

Damn. I'm a vegan and that chicken litterally has my first name! I was so scare you were gonna eat it! xD

You art what you eat!

I don't know if you understand the WAR that you started while compairing cider from Normandy and Brittany ! (really nice video, like always ;) )

I most seriously did not expect to enjoy this wonderful presentation so much! Thank you for making all my mistakes for me. It will save time, later. And, here's a tip: to whip the whites more easily and quickly, put the handle of the whisk between your hands and twirl.

Knew how to live... Well, he lived - outlived his both wives, colleagues, friends. One can only hope that the beauty he captured brought him some joy too.

I'll try all of those meals ! Thanks for your videos ❤ And I never knew that looking someone cooking could be so relaxing..

I may try that mussels dish. My freezer is full of mussels for the paella I didn't have saffron for

I was just in Giverny this weekend :o consider me #shooketh

Damn I haven't seen such a good video in a while

you really know the way to my heart, art assignment

I really appreciate the enthusiastic nihilism of your cooking. That is also how I work in the kitchen. Lol!

I got the notification halfway through my treadmill run and I must say, this video made gym far more entertaining

While I have been reading chess grandmaster chef articles at chessbase while studying their masterpieces, I never knew I could as well find such great content in form of painting! Thank you!

Thank you for pronouncing the 'L' in 'Yolks' for no particular reason other than it tickled me.

“Please meet Mary Lou...” I just died during this segment. Rofl brilliant! I know have a new list of cook books to look into. 🤤

Oh, to be an esteemed impressionist painter eating stuff fresh from your own garden in 19th century France 🥰

This video is perfectly timed, I'm learning about Impressionism in my art history class.

Admire the effort... but if you make this at home please use a mechanised egg beater and a dedicated apple peeler, you will enjoy the process a lot more... Also if you ever make your own pastry youre a sadist and i love you but never want to meet you. And there is no such thing as a male chicken...

I just cooked the eggs orsini and they where awesome. Thanks!

this is so fun to watch;; i've always love painter biography videos but this is an even better!

Just made the eggs in my toaster oven ...with butter, munster cheese, toasted, buttered sesame bagel with honeycomb garnished with cilantro ~ delish!!!

Lol did anyone else think of the Instagram cloud eggs when they saw the eggs orcini? A cloud egg is a yolk separated from the white, the white is beaten to a stiff peak, baked in an oven until lightly tanned, the yolk is added back and they’re backed together for another minute or so. Eggs orcini is basically a cloud egg casserole and that makes me very very happy.

How to Make French Breakfast: Prepare a simple and healthy menu, then add butter wherever possible, as much as possible.

"Male chicken" 'round here we call 'em rosters but hey this is fancy so... XD

This video was both inspiring and hilarious. I loved it, but now I have an urge to get a garden estate like Giverny.

These videos are wildly enjoyable. What a wonderful approach to eating. Thank you so much for your patient research and for taking the time to make these videos to share! I'm grateful for your work.

I thought Bon Appétit said adding salt to egg whites denatured the protein and makes the whites watery? Can someone confirm?

I really liked this video. :D I want to know if there are more artists with special eating "routines". And I'm so happy that you didn't kill the sweet chicken :3 (also because I'm vegetarien) Greetings and hugs from Germany

A couple eggs and some melon. Perfect. But he is heavy? What happened with the other calories?

I LOVE THE ART COOKING!!!!! I made the Van Gogh stuff and it made me so happy!!

How much dairy products do Fremch people consume 😭😭 so much cheese and butter

Honestly, it made me sad to see it was overcooked :(

This is why all French people are so slim. Giverny is a wonderful place to visit.

Wow very good ! a combination of Art history & French culinary . Just excellent !

I wish everyone could eat like Monet!😋

I ran my fingers gently along his entire kitchen surface tops, when I was there. His bedroom view of his garden, fixiated me.

I've always loved your videos, and these cooking themed films are a terrific addition to the collection. We get such an up close and personal idea of the man as well as the artist. Beautifully presented as ever. Thank you !

This is probably my favorite video-series from you. :) Such a fun way to learn about an artist- through food!

Damn they put butter on everything.

I love art cooking so much!! Thank you!!

Everybody who cares what Monet ate raise your hands.......... That's what I thought. Me neither.

30,500 Hipsters just changed up their diets.

You don't often see a cooking show where they screw up the dishes and don't re-do it

we were there only recently SO loved it!! Could return any day! The garden was amazing!

When you spoke about his frequent mental breakdowns and how we destroyed a few of his water lily paintings with a knife I was like...same

Ohh tarte tintin ! I make that with my mom every year, with apples from out garden! It's really good, I encourage everyone to try it

i just discovered your channel and absolutely enjoyed the wonderful storytelling, food, and paintings! I Can feel the passion and heart you put into it. Thanks again and have a nice day!

The french translations are full of errors and bad pronounciations (I'm a native french speaker).

Monet, I feel you. I am the exact same way with pepper on my salads.

1925 book "Touring Through France", mentioned they saw Monet painting outside in his garden as they passed by his home in their model-T!

1:33 Urban Gardens? Lost all credibility right there for me. That’s not a garden, it’s nature untouched by industry. He was showing a disgusting contrast seen from the outskirts of a city. Still can be seen today. #CrimePaysBotantDoesnt

Super fun video!! I can really see all the work and the research there is behind, but please be careful with the pronunciation of french names. I understand that it must be difficult to pronounce. You can try to say and repeat the words as many times as necessary to get them right.

This series is a work of art.

This was so enjoyable for me. To see Monet through a culinary/gardening lens has truly been eye 👁 opening for me. Thank you

This is such a nice video. Really witty too. Please make more of these.

Eggs, cheese, butter, melon (canteloupe?), bread, apples, cider, apple tart, zucchini, mushrooms, olive oil, garlic, parsley, mussels, celery, onions, chives, arugula, tarragon, (chervil), white wine, chickory, dandelion, black pepper, white wine vinegar, meat of some sort, soup of some sort... Not a bad way to go. Compared to Monet, I consume NO alcohol, eat FAR less cheese and butter, about the same amount of olive oil, a little less egg, but its fairly comparable really, a bit more chicken, a little less seafood, a little bit more red meat, MUCH less bread, much more potatoes, about the same amount of onion and garlic, etc., about the same amount/variety of other veggies, but definitely less mushrooms, more fruit, specifically, more berries, pomegranate, grapes, and oranges, more water and fruit juice, more herbal tea, more dark chocolate, a LOT more nuts and seeds, and a bit more junk food in general, mainly more just ice cream and soda on occasion... Oh, and I take supplements as well... He was really into those shrooms, wasn't he? 😁

YollllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLk

It's pronounced Or-sì-ni. They were a noble house from Rome.

This is one of my favorite channels. Thank you so much for creating these videos. You are as wonderful an artist as the ones you teach us about. Thank you!

So glad to see these back! I know with the book and the new art assignments, your video idea docket is probably full, but I would love to see an Art Cooking on the still lifes of Chaim Soutine. While it would definitely lean towards the “horrendous futurist meat sculpture” end of the spectrum, I think they are some of the most visceral and emotionally gripping paintings in the Western art canon.

I love this show. Its just so informative, interesting, and funny, and its a cooking show. Truly a wonderful time to be alive

I was worried for Mary Lou for a bit there.

Dear sound engineer. Could you please find the place, in the EQ, around the high treble area, where Sarah's "S"-sounds peaks. Give it a nudge down, It gives me a headache.

I always heard monet won the lottery which afforded him those luxurious gardens.

Deeply from heart I love his way of painting,the books style amazing. 👍
