$178 vs $12 Sundae: Pro Chef & Home Cook Swap Ingredients | Epicurious
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 17 พ.ย. 2024
- Professional chef instructor Frank Proto and experienced home cook Daniel are trading recipes and whipping up some ice cream sundaes. We set Daniel up with an over-the-top $178 worth of ingredients and Frank's recipe while sending just 12 bucks worth of goods back to our esteemed expert. As is customary, food scientist Rose dialed in to assist Daniel in achieving Frank’s vision. How did his skills stack up against Frank's decadent banana split recipe? What tricks can Frank break out to improvise a sundae up to his standards?

This has got to be Frank’s favorite series. You just know he loves to figure out just how absurd and expensive he can make even the simplest of recipes
Also proves how talented he is when he uses affordable ingredients!
Yes!
@@elizavetavinokurova7624 it is. or at least to the ones who pays for all his shenanigans lol
MUG
Frank also really loves taking the simple ingredients and master-cheffing the hell out of them.
Frank: For me to make my sundae, I first have to get milk from my personal herd of cows, my organic fruits grown in my specially built greenhouse, and eggs from my immense chicken coop.
Daniel: To make my sundae, I just go to my local 7-11 and get whatever I can find.
🤣🤣
LMAO!
how you going to get milk if you havent started by rearing a calf to adulthood
He also has to forge his own knives and built his own kitchen brick by brick
We need Pro Chef & Pro Chef Swap Ingredients... and when I say pro chef, I mean Frank and Saul...
YEESS
Just bring them all in.
YES!
yes to specifically them paired up please!!!!!
SIr! It looks like the containment tanks are faiing! They ca...*static, then dead air*
I love this series for two reasons
1) it teaches you that even a novice home chef can make a fairly complex recipe
2) it gives you some great ideas to try in your simple at home recipes
I love that Frank is Mr. High End Organic Single Origin Heritage Ingredients, but also shamelessly squirts the canned whipped topping directly into his mouth, and admits to eating the bright red cherries from the jar.
Ha! Right? He’s hilarious :)
That's a man who truly loves food.
_That_ was a highlight! Frank is a true food connoisseur but _not_ a food snob.
This show is just marvellous. Like 4 Levels, it's a fantastic blend of entertainment and education, in addition to being a great source of inspiration. Thank you!
Entertainment? It's the same script in every video of this format. The persons itself are just really cool, balancing the script they follow and I can't see
HAHAHHA U MUG
Daniel is like a human Golden Retriever. 🎉
Noooo 😭😭😭😭 why is this so true
@@TheLadyBlerd you acting like it’s a bad thing, every woman wants a himbo like Daniel lmao
@@CaptainFracture it's the wholesomeness... 😅
He really is 😭
PLS EVERY VIDEO OF DANIEL ALL HAS COMMENTS LIKE THESE 😂
I'm really glad they got to start meeting and trying each other's versions of their dish. Was definitely a great addition to this show, Daniel finally got to meet Frank on camera!
It started out like that and they only removed that part during quarantine for safety purposes
i can tell frank has so much fun making his recipes as expensive as possible hahaha
Or as complicated as possible. Kinda hard to tell with Frank.
When Frank said "I am Wizard Harry"😂😁😁
It's got that same level of "I can cook, Joe" from Gordon Ramsay
for someone who's been watching this for a longggg time, daniel's really grown into his style. you're looking very *chef's kiss* good!
Daniel is always great to watch but his personality goes to 💯 in this episode!
He went a long ways from putting blackberries into his grilled cheese.
Sexual harassment and objectification go both ways.
@@mansfieldfamily5389 sure they do! not sure what this has to do with my comment tho
@@trevorpacelli8056 i hear you! but consider... it's actually really good! berries and cheese work!
frank is slowly becoming more unhinged and i love it
You can tell that Frank just *loves* to troll the other chefs with his ingredients.
I also love it how he ends up loving the dish with his ingredients in the end.
Im a simple man: I see Frank I click
that makes two of us
three actually
Four here lmao
Nah five
Ahhh, six!!
It's like the chef wins on both the sides! His personal recipe is incredible and then he developed a whole new recipe to elevate the other one too!
I love this series, and it's always interesting to see how the pros reutlize the ingredients they're given. I do hope to see a dual series one day where they each make their original planned, and then the swapped version.
i was so apprehensive because i was like wtf can frank even do here? Frank always shocks me with his ingenuity
To be honest i would'nt be suprised if Frank sailed out to Tahiti just for those vanilla beans
😂
I’m pretty sure he has a house in every location he grows his ingredients 🤔
The world is his pantry
I can just imagine frank having his trip cancelled because of Covid and saying: “But- but- but vanilla beans ☹️”
I love it when they call Rose, she is awesome
Do a new series where the pro chef actually makes his own recipes
I'd like to see pro chefs swap recipes
@@Miglow with no reference at all
I get your point, but they are making 4 levels, which is SIMILAR. I don't think it will worth them another type of show (however I would watch it)
Pro chefs swap ingredients
I liked this episode where Frank talked about all the components of his recipe covered the "what was the pro thinking?" aspect that you'd get from a chef making his own stuff. There's a lot of those already.
When i thought i couldn't possibly love Frank's persona on these any more than I do, the throws in a flawless Harry Potter joke. Just amazing.
I enjoyed the change to how the pro chef didn't add any extra ingredients but relied on their skills. Bravo!
Basically this show is for the professional chefs to both make an ultimate recipe and show their skills by elevating the very simplest of ingredients. Love it from the first episode!
Whenever a cooking show is trying to demonstrate the consistency that you are looking for they talk about what it should do to the back of a spoon. That's fine but they only show what success looks like, never failure. Maybe a quick video demonstrating all the typical thicknesses of sauce over time would be useful/interesting.
I second this
I third this
I fourth this
Epicurious has a Method Mastery and a 101 series, I could see a demonstration like that fitting in a video for either series!
what would be the point? the show isn't trying to be a tutorial, so they don't have to give the audience exact guidance. if you want to replicate the recipe on your own time, you should do more research into methods before starting and you'll find all the custard-making know-how you need
Really enjoy watching Frank and Daniel on this series. I have my personal favorites that really draw me to watch this series.
Frank: _magically McGuyver's a super extra sundae_
Danie: _behaves super extra_
Whenever there is Frank, it's entertaining and enjoyable. ❤
I'm impressed that they both guessed the price within 2 dollars!
3 of the most expensive things on earth:
Gold
Human blood
Vanilla
Yeah that sounds just about right!
Those are some thickass chopping boards😭
Oh my! I was just blown away by Daniel saying Maraschino "Original". As a French person, I've never been more impressed. I mean that's a hard word to say right in French and oh man did he nail it. 10/10!!
Daniel needs his own cooking show. He's so much fun to watch!
Ik people like Daniel but I kinda want to see less of him and other novice chefs I just miss the other people
This two together are just awesome!! You can tell they are fans of each other and have fun...
as an Argentinean, I'm impressed at how good Daniel is at pronouncing dulce de leche lmao. Greetings yall, this is one of my fave series
I suspect he has latino ancestry?
I think he mentioned he had Spanish ancestry in a previous video, either that or Portuguese.
@@diannel7664 that would make sense, I feel like he has a bit of an accent
Lol its not that hard to pronounce
@@diannel7664late reply, but I vividly remember him saying that he is of Hispanic ancestry.
You can really see they enjoy this series.
The man who was planning on making maraschino cherries 🤯 is now gonna MacGuyver (old enough to picture that reference) a corner shoppe run for munchies - - Chef Frank., folks.
Looking forward to seeing Daniel wholesomely himbo his way through it 😅😅😅 Epicurious thank you for keeping it interesting 🥰
daniel's bringing the heat to this sundae @_@
Love this series! So entertaining and educational, and I love their personalities/humor! Would love to see an episode where two pro chefs get each other's fancy ingredients and see what they make instead. And I would like to see the pro chef get their expensive ingredients at least once!
THE NEXT DAY
He literally took 2 days just to make an Sundae!
Kudos Daniel & Frank!
"Don't use wax paper or they'll taste like crayon"
That face says "ask me how I know" 🤣
If Frank wasn’t a married man I’d snap him up 🤣 He’s a culinary genius 😍
Me too and I am married for 26 yrs. Perfect blend humor and talent for cooking.😋🥰
UwU
@@RepentInReprise UwU
Love Daniel so much. Not only is he handsome AF he's also smart & funny.
I really enjoyed this video with Daniel! He is so much fun! And Frank… oh dear Frank… your capacity to make things harder it’s outstanding but so cool, not gonna lie there hahaha
How many years have we been watching Epicurious? I don’t know, but this episode of Swap Ingredients is my favorite. Why, you ask? You know why… because it’s two recipes for sundaes! Banana splits are my all time favorite dessert. I am wondering what are the fave desserts of other Epicurious fans. Thanks, Epicurious, for all your quality content.
Frank never disappoints us~
My favorite two chefs ❤️
Daniel looking good with that salt and pepper damn 🔥🔥🔥
You're not wrong. He'll still be looking good in 20 years too!
I'm low key crushing on both Frank and Daniel 🤣 their personalities are so fun!
I don’t care what I eat if I just can see Daniel all day
this swapping cooks and ingredients series is really entertaining. thank you!
The thing is... I really like cheap vanilla ice cream!
Daniel is a good cook. He has good hand work when he's adding ingredients and assembling the dish.
I know we don't talk about how the chefs look usually, but I think the beard looks great on Daniel!
Id like to watch a version where its a homecook just buying ingredients, and see how 2 different chefs fancy it up.
This was great to watch! I was so impressed at the abilities of the home chef.
Could just be me but Daniel's hands looked like they were shaking when he was assembling the sundae. I'd react the same way with all those expensive ingredients and labour he pulled in the day before, seems nerve-wracking, but entertaining nonetheless XD But dang those are really good sundaes. I may wanna try Frank's methods sometime
they feel like close family to me. idk how to explain it, my absolutely comfort yb channel
It's always a joy to see Frank and Daniel!
Love the ending, when they get to try what the other one made 👌👌
I love it!! They had so much fun. We're fans of them and they're fans of eachother.❤️
I absolutely love seeing frank! He's got such a positive and funny aura!
I feel like this whole episode was just showing off Daniel’s arms 💪🏻 💪🏻🤣🤣
We need an episode where Frank makes the recipe from his book!
"Not a lot here, but I'm a wizard Harry" LOL 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Frank missed an opportunity with the canned cherries. They are in juice. Maybe mix a little of that juice with the melted ice cream for a cherry syrup? Or just reduce it into a simple syrup? Great episode! Lots of ideas! Had to eat some ice cream while I watched it!
Frank missed the opportunity to teach Americans the correct pronunciation of Maraschino
Bro’s now a pro chef. He’s been in so many videos 😂
Daniel needs to be in a tv show real soon!
0:56 yes daniel, you have to 'invent' ice cream,just like Frank always do
From one of the earlier videos Frank worked at Disney World, serving ice cream (and eating pot pies). He must have had a lot of fun with this one!
I looooove that chef frank is proud of Daniel. Yayyyyy. We're proud of you too! Beautiful ice cream!
I loved this combo.
My sundae:
Homemade brownies as a base, ice cream (flavor may vary depending on my mood), and topped with whipped cream, macerated strawberries, and mini chocolate chips. Maybe toasted sliced almonds as well.
I know Daniel wouldn’t be selecting those level 1 ingredients if this was 4 levels! It’s so interesting to see the cross between this series and 4 levels. Looks like he enjoys the more complex cooking here
Well, my gf wanted an ice-cream maker so I got her one. Needless to say I also had to give it a go. So far the rum-raisin-cinnamon experiment was probably the most tasty. We also own a Springlane and I would really advise to buy one with active cooling via compressor.
It takes some skill and some testing to determine the right proportions of ingredients, but boy does it feel good to nail it.
Omg i love what frank did with the whippped cream (spraying directly in the mouth). Everytime we had dessert at my and there was whipped cream our dad sprayed so much into our mouth bc we liked the taste that we were barely able to close it. It‘s the small things in live ❤😂
Gosh with the way the world is right now seeing something joyous like this is therapeutic.
Frank is on point with these movie references today lol
i love this whole series and channel it's so wholesome ! this duo was very nice to see and the results, amazing !!! I have an idea, I would like to see a Pro vs Pro series where the producers just give them random ingredients and tell the chefs to do whatever and at the end have them meet and share their plates to see how each chef creatively thinks and can come up with a different plate or who knows maybe even the same dish ! just an idea !
cheers from your biggest fan in Colombia amigos !
I love Frank in this series!!! 🤣😍😍😍
ahh yes,i see
Daniel still fighting for his life to escape the dungeon
Every person ever with grocery store ice cream: eats it
Frank with grocery store ice cream: melts it and makes a new ice cream
We love Frank
I cant really go away without saying this
"Hey Dan, candies nuts fit in yo mouth? Hahaha gottem!"
Rose is like a call a friend option
OH YEAH! My favorite duo on epicurious!
I love Daniel's energy
I like that chefs energy. Showing you love from Mexico chef!
Thank you Frank for doing the REQUIRED testing the whipped cream.
omg Frank AND icecream what a DELIGHT
I think this is the first time ever on this show that it's clear the home cook's version was tastier than the pro's!
I like how the pro chefs rant about how demolishing their recipes could have been
11:23
I actually thought Frank was going to say "Super Easy Barely an Inconvenience". Then remembered I'm watching Epicurious. XD
I swear, Frank can make boiled or ice water and it'd be awesome to watch and listen to him
I use to do that when I was a kid with the whipped cream can lol glad frank still does it
When daniel said look away with that look in his eyes, and then the smile… pff. He COOKS and has that effect…
Daniel. No more long sleeved shirts. Thank you! 😘
Dang, Daniel grew some facial hair
Great video! I enjoyed watching it! Thanks! ❤
.. ice cream sundae.. all i can think off is stephen with his soupy sundae 😆
So happy to see Daniel back! ^^
Yer a wizard 🧙♂️ Frank! - love his shout out to Harry Potter in the beginning
Daniel is so funny I love him so much XD
I kind of want to see my mom on this thing. My mom is a really good home cook like I find it fascinating that when you re-create her food, it taste just as good as when she first made it.
