- Claire. Is. Back. AGAIN. And this time she is attempting to make gourmet instant ramen. Everybody loves instant ramen, with its ludicrously salty, umami-rich spice packets and its impossibly wavy fried noodle bricks. Can Claire make a fancy version of this 70%-of-your-daily-sodium snack?

Hey Clair Badar has a HUGE crush on you❤️
I don't think Rhoda gets enough credit for just swinging in and solving problems like some low key, apron wearing superhero.
An apron is just a cape that you wear in front of your body.
yeeesssss!!!!! super rhoda!!
I actually found this video as Rhoda posted it on her instagram. :)
I absolutely adore Rhoda!
Rhoda is my hero and I'd love to have a job that is just solving people's problems!
The devil works hard but claire works harder
instant noodles work hard but claire works harder
The devil is in the tempered chocolate 🤣
I want this on a shirt
Chris is the professor that comes over when you’re not far enough on your assignment yet and don’t want them to see how slow you’re going
Why is this me
For realll I have this stupid illustration assignment but I cant draw and my professor just goes on the Jamboard while I do it-
it's a crime how no one's talking about delaney and how sweet he is
He's nice but overhyped imo. People are fanatical over everything.

I watch this show as if I’m ever gonna dehydrate anything in my life
Does being a dehydrated person count?
Jessica Rodriguez 😂😂😂😂
The only thing I’ll ever dehydrate is my skin
Dude you can make your own with light bulbs, not even joking. And think about it:
**BEEF JERKY**
🤣
Claire is the kind of person you wanted to be paired with in class for a group project.
Hell no she’s annoying
@@jk89204 it has nothing to do with watching her, that's a 5 yo response. They're talking about being paired with her in a class project. For some, they can't handle her controlling and kind of erratic behavior. Plus she's very specific about things. For some, this is all good. For them, it's not.
Dark Realist true
Task Magician like you
yea is it me or does she scream virgo energy lmao
claire: “so brad’s gone huh”
*13 mins into the video*: “Ugh i need to talk to brad"
How tf this comment got 1k likes and I’m the only comment lol
@@gucciblox5467 we busy watching Claire
i love how they explain how to make it at the end as if anyone is gonna spend $100 and two days on instant ramen
Ben Aronson they lost me at 4 pounds of chicken wings lmaoo
If it were my hobby, this would be nothing. Being obsessed is expensive, but fun when you do it right.
But for an everyday snack? I'm with you. Geddouddahere, ya crazy!
*laughs in David Seymour*
Sometimes being allergic to a lot of popular ingredients is expensive 🤷♂️. This is the one that seems the closest that I've seen anyways. Also this recipe seems to make a lot more than 1 packet so it's really not that bad.
definitely more than one packet - you could also just not reduce the stock and use it as is - like if you're making the noodles and broth flavoring fresh anyway, you can skip all the nonsense of folding the noodles and dehydrating them and just simple use the noodle and stock recipe to make some delicious ramen
Normal people: "Yea, I can only make instant noodles haha"
Claire: "Oh yeah same. See! *stARts mAKing tHem frOm sCraTch*"
Normal people:"Claire no-"
She's the mad scientist of chefs. I love it
IskandarEasyToFindThisAccount Dhiaurrahman that's such a Peter Parker Tony Stark thing to do
Lol
Brad went to Italy so he wouldn’t have to help Claire set up the dehydrator
How can I retweet a comment??

Claire: Is failing at life and cannot solve her problems
Rhoda: Appears, magically fixes everything, leaves.
some worker in the ichiban factory is watching this and laughing so hard
The amount of food science involved in these videos is extremely underrated. Claire is a genius and isn't afraid to ask for help, it makes her a better cook. i love this series so much.
So true! There is always something you can learn from these videos!
@Russell Tang Um... That's what she did? And then recreated it to the best of her ability? That's the "sci?" Where were you?
Fun fact: Claire went to Harvard
@@nicciday8434 That explains her intelligence, willing to learn and succeed.
@@angrybudgie96 you don't have to go to an Ivy League University to be intelligent or to be driven. Claire actually ditched her fancy Harvard degree and took up culinary arts after college. Love her even more! ❤💕😊
I was going to make a joke about buying that many ramen packets but then I realized they probably spent $8
This shouldn't have made me laugh as hard as I did
Hope they donate the extra packs back to the starving college students
Angela Hsiao 😂😂
@@angelaphsiao yeah some of us college kids probably went to the store like wtf where did our shelf go
At Walmart there is a sale of 3 cents for a pack of ramen
Meanwhile the only thing i've ever dehydrated is myself by accident after going a day without water.
I've dehydrated in a pool while swimming 🤭
Weak iv gone 30 days with only 1 cup of water each day
claire: brad’s in italy, right?
*claire cries inside but tries to make it not a big deal*
when you attempt to be a normal college student but you’re in culinary school
We ate like KINGS in culinary school. It was the weirdest thing...we were all broke college kids eating foie gras and taking home loaves of fresh bread and stuff. It was awesome. lol
My Former Roommmate was in Culinary School, she would bring home the most wonderful things. Cheers!
TRUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
@@rmp5s Now I wanna go to culinary school lol
@@s.a.8548 It was an AWESOME time. Spent ten years in restaurants. Learned that it's not really the best way to make money...lol
I love hearing Chris' feedback. Brad gets a lot of love (and he deserves it) but I feel that the poised and technical reviews Chris gives are under appreciated.
Ekenaa AGREED! I love Brad, but I love Chris too!
Brad doesn't get enough credit for when he tells Claire to do something and he's right more often than not. He completely saved her Kit Kats, just as one example. He's just not around as often as Chris is, and he often plays the part of brutal critic pushing Claire to do better and letting her solve her problems, whereas Chris is usually trying to be more tactful and constructive. It's obvious Claire values both of them for their technical advice, at least up until Chris starts insisting she temper the chocolate.
where is the "Do what Chris says" t-shirt?
Ekenaa YES!!! Omg!!
@@carlosparra8976 whats wrong wit u
when she said “what’s an air fryer?” I know this video had to be older 😂
Pastry chef attempts to steal my heart
Success
I like how she gives us the recipe like someone really has all the stuff and energy to make this 😂
😂
But if she sold just the powder I'd use that over bouillon and use normal noodles.
There is this guy on CZcams that recreates her gourmet makes receipts I think his name is David Seymour
I do...
i do
One of my favourite parts of these vids is when Claire says "I feel pretty good" and you see there's still 15 minutes to go!
Парр+пппаааааааааааа*
De
Nah, bro. For me it was the cute, off-handed, sighing „Ack, I need to talk to Brad“, that was the kicker. ^^
@KADEN YOUNG why? Are you trying to get revenge on someomr so i u make their number known to the internet ppl and invite them to text ,you"
B Vegan you know, what you said reminded me of this chicken my brother raised. It always seemed smarter then the rest. . . . And more delicious.
I love how she starts the episode “Brads not here ? No help making custom cooking tools, ah who needs him” then proceeds to try and push everyone into the Brad role of helping her break stuff
I can't tell you enough how much I appreciate all the effort and pitfalls that are included in these videos. Part of what's lost with cooking shows or online recipes is the struggle behind the scenes. Seeing that even professionals have a tough time pulling things together is encouraging to those hoping to try things themselves.
Claire *risking slicing open her hand on the cut metal rack*
Amiel: Please be careful
Claire: THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IS THE NOODLES
Mood.
I mean...that’s how I feel when I cook instant ramen too
The Test Kitchen is peak working environment. Everybody bounces ideas off each other and have each other’s backs. Lord I wish this is the kind of environment I work in in the future
I wish that for you too. Everyone deserves a good working environment.
Oof this comment did not stand the test of time 😢
thank you for noting that MSG gets a bad rap! MSG is only a problem if you have a notable sensitivity but it adds so much depth of flavor.
So true. And this also had MSG in it. The 2% yeast extract is how they add undercover msg. We know they did because Disodium Guanylate is only added along with msg. Many products are labeled with sneaky using MSG names. If you think it probably has MSG in it, then it most likely does unless the company makes a point of saying NO MSG on the label. Even health foods can have it. I'm one of the msg sensitive ppl out there, so while it's not a problem for most of the world, some do have to watch out for it or we can even go into Tachycardia.
Yeah, unless you have an allergy it is fine. Most of the studies were founded on racism since it was at first mainly in Chinese food in Chinese restaurants so the evidence is biased. So unless you have an alllergy or sensitivity (like anyone can have to basically anything) its perfectly fine to use
@@NintenJon2023 My godmother has an MSG intolerance and her vision goes haywire! Her eyesight gets all blurry :/ Dangerous for driving.
@@bodyofhope Hydrolyzed vegetable proteins are also, in part, MSG.
Sorry for being stupid, but what is MSG?
2 servings per pack? I used to eat 3 packages in a sitting with a microwaved cheese quesadilla...
I'm starting to understand why I'm so unhealthy
You ate three packages of ramen in one sitting?? 💀💀💀
@@junkmoon- oh yea, and boy did it turn out bad for me
@@kaysothisisit I usually eat 2 tbh.
We make 2-3 packs at a time but only use one pack of seasoning. They're wayyyyy too salty to use more
dinner of champions
I thought that Claire was gonna start crying when she was trying to make the curl and I got really worried
actually same
@Bill Bob because I didn't want her to cry...?
yea we all love claire, her strugle is our strugle
She is definitely going to start crying when she finds out just how easy it really is to get those curly folds. XD
William Wescott how?
My favorite thing about these videos is how supportive everybody in the kitchen is... no one is out for personal gain, everyone pitches in helping out with steps and ideas
One of the reasons I love this channel. So many entertaining and supportive personalities.
I especially love how hard it is to get praise out of Chris Morocco, but you know it's real when he gives it. Seems like he's the go-to guy for food science stuff *and* for distinguished palate, which is a great combo!
She just seems like she has no idea what she's doing and is really insecure about it. Hence having to ask for advice every 6 seconds.
Woah its the illusion
What? I guess you just have never been around people or worked in a group or or work with and alongside colleagues?
What you have said is one of the most stupid and idiotic things I have ever read.
@@commentcopbadge6665 Why are you being so negative to someone who is just happy to see people working positively together? It's really that stupid and idiotic for someone to shed light on people being supportive of one another? Your comment is a bit perplexing; have you always worked in a positive, supportive environment? If so, I'm very happy for you, but many times it can be a much less pleasant experience.
I've fallen in an immense like with Claire. She's so much more than a chef - her skill-set is such that she could probably create her own style or branch of cooking. If she opened her own restaurant, I 100% would go eat there. If she started her own cult, I would stop what I was doing and listen to the pitch. She should have her own show, like this one, where people keep her a little frazzled but in the end she accomplishes what she needs to do.
I watch this knowing the only thing I’m dehydrating is myself
Brad is not here
Claire- "I don't know if it helps or hurts.."
are they a thing?
@@laurarimkute4435 I've been wondering the same thing
Aa Mm Brad’s married ^^
Sometimes you need a friend
Amiel: "I see what you're saying."
Claire "....What am I saying?"
Relatable af
Me lol
Amiel: “I see what you’re saying.”
Claire: “What am I saying?”
that’s probably one of the most meirl moments to come out of this entire channel
We need a Kinder Bueno gourmet makes!! Thumbs up if you agree
(Claire would hate it but I bet she’ll smash it nonetheless)
Yes!
Brad is in Italy presumably eating fresh pasta, and Claire is making instant ramen.
This seems backwards somehow.
LMAO
If you think Brad isn't eating fermented pasta you're off your rocker, friend.
Ramen isnt Italian
@@PerMortensen "this is the best way to eat pasta vinny"
@@trickzzz0 I mean, clearly. I was talking quality of food.
"I need Brad."

"It's Alive" is one of the best series on CZcams
Chris: the texture is so springy!
molly: ThE nOOdles aRe FunnY
I watch both BA and Tasty, but what makes BA different is how everyone is a family and everyone is involved in the process. Tasty Is just one person in a professional set up. It's a whole company and a production. The BA kitchen is so warm and they just feel like family you've never met.

Claire should make a series in which she brings back discontinued food like limited edition favorites or something
Miriam Garcia omg dude yes
YES
she should make a rittersport marzipan mint milk chocolate bar 😍
It's cool but she gets so much stress doing these videos
Yes, but tasty has done that so it could be looked at as copying. Remember, tasty brought back dunkaroos?

For the entire video I wondered what MSG was and finally when Claire pulled out the aginomoto I realized that aginomoto is the answer to everything😂😂
Bon Appétit videos are my new obsession during this quarantine. I feel like I personally know all these chefs now after binge-watching all this channel. Everyone is wonderful. Thank you for saving me in this weird time!!
I love how even though this is a kitchen full of experienced, skilled, and talented chefs, there was no upturned noses or disdain towards instant ramen. As much as it gets a bad rep and is considered unhealthy (which it is, to be sure), it truly is a culinary marvel!
Yes, you're right. And now that millennials are grown, instant Ramen companies are taken quite seriously. We like our ramen! Lol
hahaha litally except rapo :P I can totally imagine adam being too good for them

@@tashan13 Because you exposed Claire XD
Claire is just so pretty and I love her hair!
This honestly might be the best episode of gourmet makes. She actually made the product better, instead of trying to make a replica. The only thing missing is Brad, but he was at least mentioned. Also, his absence may have been better for Claire because he often comes with many complaints.
I know i'm late with this comment but I felt I needed to express the greatness of this!
It would be great to see a Gourmet version of Pringles.
Great idea
yeesss
Yes this or Cheez-Its
Yesss
What the hell are pringles even. Like that is not potato
Dude.. Its been 2 weeks.. You brought Claire back and in 2 weeks we have 2 Gourmet Videos. You guys truly love us (your viewers). Thank you
So true!
Claire is literally a magician
My favourite person ever
As happy as I am to have her back I still want to get to the bottom of the mystery of where she went!
Brought her back? what happened where did she go?
Apparently “Alex the French guy” made a hand cranked pasta machine that makes the curl. Though that took a while and it was custom built and it was in collaboration with this old tony.
Asian Muffin he also actually made ramen this is not ramen this is pasta it's a totally different chemical compound
Nicco Saur
No that is ramen. Just that she’s using baked baking soda instead of kansui.
Asian Muffin wtf is chicken salt 😂
Ciprianita Gates wait when did I mention chicken salt?
The "adult baby food" idea is lowkey genius, and the audience definitely exists (could be due to health complications or sheer preference). I'm here for it! DO IT
👏hot👏pockets👏
👏gourmet👏hot👏pockets👏
galactic lemon thank you for your service 🙏
Those are called calzones.
I feel like that’d be pretty simple. Not a worthy challenge for Claire 😂
Tor Lumnitor no. Calzones are half folded pizzas. “Pocket pastries” which can be hot pockets, pizza pockets, toaster strudels, etc and foods designed under the old method used by labour workers who needed food that they could carry in their pockets to eat later
It would need to be able to be burnt on the outside and frozen inside when you heat it up
eat dry noodle
pour boiling water in mouth
snort flavour powder
A true gourmet

Deconstructed noodle
and f*ck b*tches
Nom
I'd totally buy those seasoning packets.
She didn't know what a air fryer was 😂 oh how times have changed.
this is such a healthy work place. everyone is so supportive of Claire. work envy.
Why is she crying tho! Chill🛬
Yahya Yuksel this was clearly ironic
I love how when Claire presents her idea for the rack to Amile, his instinct isn't "Why?", it's "Wire Cutters".
Wish my classmates were like that
Lol only if u had known what was going on now

WE WANT CLAIRE'S SOUP
Watching this in 2022!! Ugh I want this show back😭😭💔💔
I love how the first thing Claire asks is where Brad is 😂😂😂
Can I just say that Claire is an actual genius! To be able to understand ingredients, the properties they have, they way they interact with each other and how cooking them differently will cause each ingredient to act is honestly just amazing, she has such a sharp mind to be able to look at cooking as chemistry and I for one am always so impressed by her skill!
she went to harvard :D
Agreed. I love that beautiful analytical brain.
I agree
Cuz she uses her noodle! :3
She struggles like she's trying to figure out nuclear fusion when she's trying make noodle dough... or trying to figure out how to make dry noodles that will rehydrate (ie household pasta or household asian noodles - they are dried/dehydrated, not just fried obviously).... should these things be this complicated for someone with her supposed level of "expertise"? Everything is always such a major struggle for her to figure out
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. Whatever they pay Claire, it’s not enough.
I mean Claire gets the most views on the channel. I'd hope they pay her a large sum.
Watching this now and thinking 'how don't you know what an air fryer is' but neither did I 4 years back 😂😂 love this series I had to start it over
Her energy is radiating nothing but happiness .. love watching her.
I love how the stages of Claire's hair basically mirror her frustration lololol
Video should be titled
"Claire is on the verge of tears for 25 mins"
thats like,,, all of her videos
no the series should be named that lmao
I'm really surprised that she didn't break out a stand mixer
This is pretty tame compared to some of the others.
Ain’t that all her videos tho
Claire no longer works full time in BA test kitchen, also claire: starts destroying cooking utensils in test kitchen with the help of other BA chefs
“Oh I see what you’re saying”
Claire: “what am I saying?”
I need Claire to make Gourmet Pringles...
I second
Same I but like how? 😂
It's Claire she'll find a way
omg yess
I feel those would be easy for her, she'd probably just super thin slice a potato and use the dehydrator to make them crispy while doing it on a mold of some sort.
Trystan Shyre not really, they’re so different from normal crisps and unlike most they are not majority potato, they’re taste almost like there is no potato used... that’s just my opinion tho, I understand what you mean tho
I can actually feel her tiredness, it's okay girl, thank you claire
you know things start getting intense when Clair puts her hair up
Chris has real Little League baseball dad energy in this.
You know Claire is frustrated with a challenge when she says, "I'm just going to do exactly what Chris said."
Claire videos: intelligent kitchen experiments
Brad videos: *"YHNOYWAWA"*
CZcams recommended this video to me and know I can't stop thinking about how I miss this series. I miss Gourmet Makes so much.
same
"Today, we're making gourmet instant ramen."
So ramen?
No, since you don't really need to make powdered seasoning and air frying ramen,
but instant gourmet
Traditional ramen is made with fresh pasta. The instant is dry...
I usually question why BA buys so much of the product that Claire is trying to replicate, but there's only like $3.27 on that counter this time haha
same. i thought there was going to be a ramen mountain Lmao
It’s for the photo but yeah mood
She's so patient and perseverant like I could never do that
I could if i got payed for it
It’s such a shame that the BA administration was being so terrible and mistreating their employees behind the scenes, because this was such a golden era of CZcams
For 50 bucks I can survive a whole semester on instant ramen, Claire.
You should make gourmet Pringles
julie mcmullen YES!
Ohmygod, hell yes!!
And I’m eating pringles now HAHA
@Da Boo no way, pringles are dehydrated potato powder dissolved into moulds and air fries with seasoning. it would be a cool episode to watch
@Da Boo maybe several flavors?

I adore this lovely lady so much. I didn't want to watch a single video of hers, but then I saw the Takis episode, and now I don't wanna stop watching her vids. I watch a few every day and I'm enjoying myself. Keep making videos, Claire.
when they were talking about seasoning for the stock towards the end, I was like "why don't they use chicken salt?"
and then I remembered
it's an australian thing 😂
Sarah Vargas chicken… SALT?
WAIT OTHER PLACES DON'T HAVE CHICKEN SALT???????
this... this is sad.
I'm sorry chicken what?
Claire works so hard for us. THANK YOU CLAIRE WE LOVE IT 😭😭😭😭
Her videos are the most popular on this channel. I watch everyone but I'm happy she's so successful, she deserves it :)
how old is claire?
@@phucanhell Claire is pretty but she turned chubby, nooo!
Muhammad Ilhan she looks 22 at the start of the episode but turns 33 by the end
@Yoo Jin So you're saying that any CZcams channel is only doing it for themselves and not to entertain people? Although some channels may think this, others do not. The whole reason of this series is to entertain us as viewers to see if a pastry chef can make gourmet foods. Even so, profit still has to be earned if your a full time CZcamsr and you don't have a second job. I'm not saying that Claire or any other employee at BA doesn't have a different job, but it is very likely they only work at Bon Appetite, considering they are supposedly under a contract with them.
Edit: I forgot to add at the end - of course she needs money if she works there full time. She obviously has to be payed somehow.
I love watching junk food psychologically destroy this poor woman.
Watching this instead of writing my essay🥺 i love Claire so much
it's my first time seeing her and i think i'm in love. She looks so fluffy, cuddly and adorable, like a teddy bear.
Or you could eat them the hard core way:
Boil water
Eat the noodles hard
Chug the boiling water
Snort the flavour
You are a man of quality
Lol
@David Shaw Roll the package into a straw to snort the flavor packet
That turned me on
chug boiling water... no problem
snort the flavor.... easy
but, don't make me eat the noodles dry
there is nothing she can’t do, her analytical skills and creative instinct is mind blowing
So obsessed with this show... Claire is amazing. Absolutely could never do what she does...
