    I find it really helpfully that Claire (and the whole of BA) explain the reasoning for taking certain steps, rather than just doing something and not explaining why, it really helps with baking and cooking!!

      Chloe C a lot of the recipes in the videos are also on their website with more detail. I usually use the videos as a reference to make sure everything looks right.

    I'm not a baker, in fact I don't even cook (at all), and I normally just watch these BA videos and think "Yum, that looks so good but I'll never make it". BUT this time I said "No!! I'm making this." And I did!! And it came out like pretty good! Thank you Claire.

And add the science like she does here. I feel like I learn to be a more intuitive cook if I know why things interact with each other the way they do.

    I'm used to seeing Claire attempting to make something she starts out with no idea how to make, and trial-and-erroring her way to a perfect gourmet version of a mass-produced snack food. She gets practically the whole kitchen involved tasting things and suggesting alternatives. This is my first time watching one where she's doing her main thing, she knows all the best ways to do each step, and it all flows seamlessly from start to finish. This one's fun to watch in a little different way from the "Gourmet Attempts..." ones.
