    I’m SUPER CONSERVATIVE BUT I LOVE PBS AND AMERICA’S TEST KITCHEN!



  6. Anthony Stewart on March 6, 2021 at 12:42 am

    I literally LOVE this channel and all of you guys on it; I have learned so much that I actually surprise myself whilst discussing certain culinary issues with more experienced cooks and even chefs who cook and bake professionally. I actually sound like I know what I’m talking about, and you know what? I do! It’s all because I don’t watch you guys for entertainment; I watch to LEARN, and real learning takes place. Thank you so much for all of the effort put into these episodes. You are helping millions of people not just in the US (although for some reason, some western Europeans watching this are often loath to admit it), but around the globe! You’re fantastic and my absolute favorite culinary channel!



  7. Thep Ketkhounaroun on March 6, 2021 at 12:44 am

    This is one of the best cooking shows on pbs, kstw, and now on food network. But more or less great without Chris Kimbell, yeah…



  8. Barb Geller on March 6, 2021 at 12:45 am

    Yum



  9. Lili Doucet on March 6, 2021 at 12:48 am

    Recipes look good! Staff looks scared to death and stiff. Maybe relax a little have fun when cooking.



  12. Vicky Polve on March 6, 2021 at 12:53 am

    Dose a wooden spoon rob your dishes of flavor when using them while cooking?



  13. Black Pill Yellow on March 6, 2021 at 12:54 am

  18. leslie mcconnell on March 6, 2021 at 1:01 am

    Do you "flip" the tenderloin, as in turn around or turn over? Do you turn the tenderloin over to brown?



  19. Johnny Longfeather on March 6, 2021 at 1:02 am

    What Holidays are they celebrating?



  20. Diane Etcheverry on March 6, 2021 at 1:05 am

    You two are the best, but I’m falling for dan. Tastings are a favorite part of each program. Everyone is special! What an outstanding group of people—so kind and sweet!

  24. Linda de Beeld on March 6, 2021 at 1:09 am

    Can the Gateaux Breton be frozen?



  25. little me on March 6, 2021 at 1:11 am

    Oh, no, no, no, no, no….Millionaires shortbread isn’t British? It’s a Scottish dish? It’s as Scottish as Haggis. Would you say Haggis is a British dish? Or would you associate that dish with Scotland?



  26. Dragana Crnila on March 6, 2021 at 1:13 am

    Loved every single recipe, thank you!



  27. Gin C on March 6, 2021 at 1:13 am

  36. Valerie Castritsis on March 6, 2021 at 1:23 am

    Can you use the caramel in the millionaires shortbread for pecan turtles also?



  37. Geoffrey Gavurnik on March 6, 2021 at 1:25 am

    https://nypost.com/2017/05/18/that-red-juice-oozing-out-of-your-steak-isnt-blood/

    The longer you cook a steak, the hotter it gets, and as it heats up, the muscle fibers get firm and all the juices cook out. The result is that the interior of a well-done steak is a uniform gray color, and the steak itself is tough, chewy, flavorless, and dry. This isn’t cooking; it’s arson.

    Most chefs regard beef cooked to medium-rare — with an internal temperature of 130-135F (55-57C) — as the best way to bring out flavour and retain moisture in tender cuts such as rib eye and top loin.



  38. x xx on March 6, 2021 at 1:25 am

    Everyone looks like they are 5feet tall..lol great recipes guys



  39. Chef Christopher Tucker on March 6, 2021 at 1:25 am

    Lol’d when she said Damn!



  40. Helen Pearson on March 6, 2021 at 1:25 am

    By far my favourite cooking show !! I have watched since Chris Kimble days and really enjoyed it then , but when he left the show and then Julia and Bridgette took over as lead hosts of the show I wasn’t too sure if it was going to be as good. How wrong I was! They work so well together and the accompanying chef/ cooks on the show all come together to give such a relaxed vibe. You all look like you’re having fun and at the same time giving us some great ideas and information on how to prepare some very tasty food. And you know because it’s the “Test Kitchen” the recipe has been tried many times and perfected already for the rest of us.



  41. Lynlijalys Balderdottir on March 6, 2021 at 1:26 am

    Yum!



  42. tony brigner on March 6, 2021 at 1:26 am

    so good



  43. matt coletta on March 6, 2021 at 1:27 am

    It was so nice to see you all together! There is not one person in your group I dislike, I love and admire you all. You should consider having a fan on a few shows (me, please) to add to the sharing attitude which draws me to watch your shows. I would even stay after to help with dishwashing, my girlfriend has taught me that it can be quite therapeutic and calming. When I cook at home I always wash dishes as I go along when there is downtime during boiling, searing, and baking. Make it less stressful and my hands stay even cleaner!! (yes I am big on cleanliness)



  44. David Saintloth on March 6, 2021 at 1:28 am

    That short bread dessert…. I would have going a way to put peanut butter in the mix!
