Baking the Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookie: Every Ingredient, Every Decision | Epicurious
For more great Instant Pot recipes, please visit InstantPotEasy.com
There are lots of things to consider when it comes to making chocolate chip cookies. Deciding which flour, sugar, leaveners, fats, …
My go-to recipe says soften the butter and then mix it with the sugar until blended, then the eggs, then the dry ingredients. Anyone have yeas or nays for this?
No offense to this presenter but I did not like this video. Part of the reason I like Epicurus videos is because they don’t judge or moralize. This felt like it was moralizing “clean” “organic” bs buzz word ingredients that are so expensive that this recipe isn’t even accessible to the average American. No thank you.
Where r the ingredients list???
I'm disappointed Epicurious. Don't cloak an organic agenda with pseudo-expertise. That was a lot of words to say nothing substantive or verifiable.
Nestle and betty crocker fans better run cuz this vid is controversial af, but I love buckwheat so let's goooo!
Thanks for the class.
I mean I'm sure it's delicious, chef clearly knows her stuff. But I feel like the buckwheat is totally gratuitous. Just makes it way more expensive, and idk if it's the camera lighting or whatever, but I don't know how I feel about the color of the cookies
This is great, please have Natasha Pickowicz on Epicurious again
Your hair gets in the way. What's wrong with a chef hat?
Instead of showing us all the packaging and talking your head off, just show us the difference in the products…
Still the Marketing will never approve this recipe, the look is not even acceptable. I'm thinking of a restaurant called Epicourious where you can serve all of these fancy and posh recipes ❤
😍
A head's up to this Pastry Chef; I would Never use ANY PAN SPRAY because if you Smell the Propellent you will Notice That
It Smells Like " Propane " ! I would Never " want to Ingest " Any " Petroleum Product " into my System !
I would like to try that with a Top Flight Milk-Chocolate Ingredient such as Cadberry's or Hershey's Symphony bars !
I don't know if That would be Practical in the Cooking, but if it worked out THAT would be a " Fantastic Chocolate Chip Cookie " !
Just a little too thin for me, if she chills the cookie dough balls then put them in the oven they will have a little thickness to them. It kinda defeats the purpose of a leavener.
I much prefer thick chewy cc cookies. Flat ones like that are not it for me. I certainly wouldn't turn hers down though since I'm sure they taste amazing!
Honestly that was too fancy for me. Not gonna lie, I did enjoy the whole explanation and science but I’m not at that level.
Liked their choices, so why do those cookies look just… off? Roasted buckwheat maybe?
the "alternative" Ingredients are so ridiculous in this one, almost like the multiple choice questions in DMV tests
😍😍😍 she's amazing, and beautiful 🤭🖤
To get a chewy cookie using almond flour, just add gelatine to the recipe. That way you have a chewy cookie that is low carb, but you also need to swap out the sugar for either erythritol, allulose or monkfruit sweetener to make it low carb.
Just add 1 tablespoon of gelatine for every 1.5 cups of almond flour.
Recipe? Thanks 😊
My gosh that was incredible. Natasha great effort. I can't wait to try making these. 🙂
Seriously though, between the buckwheat flour, the organic fair trade sugar, the half pound of butter, fancy block chocolate, two different types of salt, and real vanilla extract, this is a $20 batch of cookies. That's not an exaggeration.
Ain't nobody got money for organic fair-trade sugar.
Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
lol so many whiny comments here
Great video but where's Dan tho? 😭
Guranteed nobody will be wanting to rush over to try a cookie like that, rather eat me a chips-a-hoy.
Wow she knows her stuff and presented it well! I’m not sure about this recipe but Ill give it a try.
The comments on this video are heavvyyy y’all it’s not that serious. Thanks for the cool video!
I'm so pleased that she has managed to find her perfect recipe. I wonder if anyone else likes it?
Birdy
Loveeeeeeeeeeee
This woman is clueless. Seriously, vanilla extract with alcohol to get that alcohol burn in the cookie dough? Seriously??
It’s the perfect chocolate chip cookie, yet per this woman she doesn’t like chips. What?
I use generic products and make fantastic cookie. Smug is an ingredient you need to leave out.
I'm sorry but this seems to be really unfair against people that are poor all those ingredients are organic or branded and I'm sorry but I've made plenty of great foods without all the brands and organic produce since I can't afford that neither has my family so we learned how to build flavor with what we had
The buckwheat flour I'm willing to keep an open mind about, but the misinformation about organic brown sugar and her choice of American butter over that block of European butter… nah.
Honestly not a fan when the dough and the chocolate becomes homogeneous like that. I like a lighter dough sprinkled with chocolate not a fudgy chocolate-y mass.
Organic does not make a difference, ingredient quality does. Higher quality ingredients will be better and usually organic ingredients are higher quality but not because they’re organic but simply because they’re smaller operations that can focus more on quality than quantity. That whole spiel was just economic discrimination, same with the vanilla bit because unless it’s a very dominant flavour in whatever you’re making(which it’s not in chocolate chip cookies) then you will not notice a difference.
If you’re going to make a “how to make a perfect ___” series then consider switching to a format more like Benjamin the baker where instead of having a guest throw their (often times bad) opinions at us, you have someone knowledgeable show how different ingredients or methods will effect the final outcome and then give suggestions on what will actually give you the best results instead of the most buzz words like ms chemicals here
Why does this feel like an advertisement for various brands of ingredients?
I love how she thinks the organic brown sugar is somehow different when ALL brown sugar is refined and then has molasses added back into it…. Exactly like the brown sugar she didn’t like.
😂
Super informative
Keep talking dirty….
