Molly and Adam Make Matzo Ball Soup | From the Test Kitchen | Bon Appétit

- Passover is right around the corner! Join Molly Baz and Adam Rapoport in the Bon Appétit Test Kitchen as they make BA's best matzo ball soup. This soup is very schmaltzy, full-bodied, and flavorful. If you prefer a leaner, clearer broth, make the soup a day ahead, chill overnight, then skim the schmaltz from the surface of the soup before reheating. You can save the schmaltz to make the matzo balls or for another use. This recipe serves eight people generously (with two balls each) but could easily stretch to serve 16 smaller appetizer-sized portions. We ordered the steps so that you could make the stock and matzo balls simultaneously, but if you prefer to break up the work, you can make both the balls and stock a couple of days ahead.
Check out the recipe here: www.bonappetit.com/recipe/bas...

Molly and Adam Make Matzo Ball Soup | From the Test Kitchen | Bon Appétit - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต
Molly is the most aggressive cook ever. She stirs and costs and moves things like she had to be somewhere in ten minutes- love it
HAHAHAHAHAHA I AM THE SUPREME BEING OF TH-cam AND I HAVE TWO GIRLFRIENDS EVEN THOUGH I AM THE UNPRETTIEST TH-camR OF ALL TIME!!! Good bye cass
You have obviously never worked in a real kitchen before ...
@@bigfattank101 This. She seems completely normal to me. Well she does swear less than I expect someone to do while cooking but youtube.
@@KenS1267 huh? I agree I was trying to say Molly is super chill, especially compared to the people I've worked with in kitchens.
She is more of like hyper Chef. But most of the time she is super chill.
Adam, before saying anything: correct me if I’m wrong,
Ren Gardner 😂 he such a boss man. He knows everything and he doesn’t want to take over the show but he can help himself to ask provoking questions to get the video to go the direction he wants
@@rebeccag8407 I think is because he feels threatened by molly and her confident energy
He seems to be an old-school style, talk show style interviewer, that's how they ask questions.
Ren Gardner hi
@@henriquekonradt541 i think you're reading a lot into this
the way only molly did videos with Adam bc she's the only one that could stand him... proud of u molly
It feels to me like he had a thing for her and so made her do videos with him. It would explain her uncomfortable energy.
@@daniellewalker256 you know he was plowing her behind the scenes
@@ronjeremy1232 lol "plowing " I haven't heard that in awhile 🤣
Danielle Walker he gives me Epstein energy lowkey
it's in times like these that I am glad BA films their content so far in advance. lol
I know!!!
Right! I love all their content
It's not matzoh ball soup if you don't fight while making it
Matt Nedostup That’s what makes it Jewish
Facts.
This!!
What does your family fight over? I think every family fights over different aspects. Some fight over the size of the balls, what kind of herb to add, how much chicken you have in yours, “RACHEL TOOK THE LAST BALL!”
What you argue over says a lot about ones family 😂
Dylan Mandel Kvetch is a one-person activity. Wouldn’t a broyges be more appropriate?
I like in the description they put “filmed on February 18th” u know before the world shut down.
JennyK Cerreta hello
Apocalypse Soup, Filmed on April 1st
relieved that they're not still going in, ty for pointing this out!
I'm gonna be so distraught when the backlog runs out
adam truly is trying and i'll give him kudos for that
He did more than I would with Molly. LOL
No you won't 😌
This comment didn’t age well
@@rubymiah9529 What do you mean?
@@biggdaddy202003 he's racist and he resigned.
All these poor comments telling people not to bully Adam have not aged well 😅😭
What he do
@@J_B17 blackface
@@aly-ri8im more brownface but same thing
@@sanchezgomez5127 White chicks was comedy there is no history behind it to make it racist, and since white people are the majority they can't be oppressed by the stereotypes it perpetuates.
I don’t get how he did ‘brown/black face’? All I saw was a pic of him and his wife? Like...?
Everyone says shade, but I actually found Rappos questions helpful and they clarified some things
agreed, i think that was the point of his questions. since he was the "student" in this episode, he was trying to ask questions he thought other people new to the recipe would want to ask.
Yeah, this doesn't have anywhere near the same energy as the broccoli pasta dish they made. Not that thats bad at all.
same!
Me too lol i enjoyed watching them together i just finished this video and was surprised to see everyone hatin
@@principetuna Habit and exaggeration. People love living a meme.
Molly measuring salt is something I never thought I'd see!!!
I'm too is shocked. I feel like coz Rapo likes everything measured. So Molly gotta play the cards right. Lmao
Did you see all that salt she put on the chicken? Lost my appetite. Lol.
@@Red_Eyed yea and then threw it to 4 quarts of water. She uses more than that she salts water for pasta
I definitely feel like Adam is trying really hard to be polite and humble, and honestly so is Molly to a degree, or at least trying to be nice. It's kind of a cool dynamic.
The chemistry between these 2... nonexistent
RIGHT
It's a cooking show, the recipe is clear and informative and that's really all there needs to be. It's not a theatre production!
Umberto seems like a reasonable point, but considering the focus on personality-driven videos that is so consistently dependent on the already present chemistry between the chefs in the test kitchen, it’s not unfair to expect that kind of chemistry in all the videos they post.
They clashed a lot in previous videos they did. Highly recommend you watch them. Quality entertainment
Gotta love how efficient Bon Appetit is at uploading vids lately, they know we need it to keep some semblance of our sanity while in self quarantine.
A cynic would say it’s actually in their best financial interest to produce more content while they have a captive audience. But either way I’m loving it!
@@jaykennedy8418 And someone wanting attention would made 'edgy' replies.
these were also probably filmed like a month in advance, so maybe things hadn't blown up for them yet
I'm just hoping for an It's Alive season 4, I just finished binging that playlist.
michael warren exactly
Honestly the separated husband-wife vibes that this duo gives is unmatchable 😂
it called throwing shade :P
The passive aggression oh my word
I cant
Adam Rapoport, definitely the Michael Scott of this kitchen.
season 1 Michael
Not at all
Don’t compare a lunatic like Adam to daddy Scott
Rapo shouldn’t be in vids... he adds nothing to the test kitchen atmosphere and dynamic. He doesn’t even know the chefs’ backgrounds. I just can’t get behind it.
Ok but can you see into the future or something... what’s the deal
Aged like fine wine
Adam definitely getting too much hate. He has been a little overbearing in the past but I think he found his footing well in this episode to guide the watchers and provide insightful commentary without taking over the process
I love their videos. I can see me acting the same with my boss lol
Michael Scott, season 6
I’m really not seeing it. A few minutes in and it’s already pushy and uncomfortable. Continuing to watch and his presence isn’t really adding anything. Just asking random questions like you do when you don’t know what else to say. Not to mention molly is noticeably uncomfortable multiple times.
na adam sucks.
Character👏development👏
You can just sense the micromanaging energy trying to be suppressed for entertainment's sake 🤣
the comment on the teaspoon measure? i know.
@@arasharfa I was honestly confused when she spooned 3 spoons and not 1.5 as she said. So Adam questioning her about it was actually helpful for me.
Omg 😂😂😂 i had to delete my comment because it was this thought exactly lmao I feel him restraining through the video 😂😂😂
Molly: " 16 cups..... So 4 quarts" 2:53
Me: soooooo a gallon 😂😂
I really enjoyed Adam In this as I feel like he's asking the questions I'd be asking
This didnt age well
It’s everyone’s favourite divorced couple!
Maxim Reeve 😂😂😂
Why what’s the beef between them?
Sarah SS it’s what we like to call in the business ‘a joke’ 😅
Maxim Reeve no you idiot, a lot of comments are discussing hostility between the two and I asked assuming you knew to elaborate.
Sarah SS oh my b, nah just making a silly comment
There's no need to wear my sunglasses today because there's so much shade everytime adam and molly is on screen together
Hahaha true. This is why i love to watch them working together. Hahaha
safira hello
safira of course there is, so the fricking virus does not get in your eyes.
The guy is clearly attracted to her see how he looks at her? Sorry for his wife
Sycophant
It's so clear to me that Adam has seen or heard of the critiques in the comments about how he interacts with Molly because I found him muuuch more delightful in this than I have in the past.
Love that Adam is like an adorable little chef helping his mom in the kitchen, and said mom (Molly) is trying to avoid frustration while correcting him every few seconds. The dynamic is amazing, and bless Molly’s strained soul, I want it more often.
I was surprised they threw out all of that nice fond left on the baking sheet. I would've taken a bench scraper and put that right in the broth.
Girl sameee
Me too that’s the best part of roasting wings I even dip bread in it it’s so good
yeah - i was thinking they should have tossed some water on the pan as soon as they took it out of the oven. loosen it all up. It's possible they did, but just didn't show that part.
It sounds like they did add it (Adam mentions the fond) but they just didn't include it in the video!
Brad did the same a couple of weeks ago - shame on you all!
Adam's like that dad who's trying to prove to his kids that he's hip.
But, like, in. an endearing way. Not in a Dad, Stop way.
He's like a more lax Mister Peanutbutter
the dad stop way. the endearing way. They're the same way. -Pam
Michiko Manalang hello
I don’t really get why some people don’t like him. To be fair, I haven’t seen a ton of videos with him, but he seems like an ok guy?
@@Brannington Ah, I see you're a man of depression as well 😌
I'm so glad Adam's videos are now watchable. Way to go, buddy. We appreciate the effort.
I honestly found this super duper helpful. As someone who very frequently uses and references BA vids/recipes Adam asked all the questions I typically ask during an episode or while I am cooking. Thank you molly for showing us the ropes, you absolute queen!
the Adam/Molly dynamic has really been growing on me. kind of like a Michael/Pam situation, if Michael was more GQ and Pam was more pittbull terrier
Can't agree more
Your comment is everything
*weenie dog
I'm imaging Molly and Adam quarantined together.
It's terrifying.
HAHAHA I WANT THIS
It would either end up as a horror movie or a rom com.
@@telectronix1368 why not both?
@@riochuck8056 War of the Roses
6:01
Adam: Wait, SHE just did three teaspoons...
Adam defs was that kid in school that would snitch on you in a heartbeat 😂
I just want to say I really appreciate what you guys do. Entertainment is really important in sad times like this just to lift spirits. But, you guys also teach while entertaining! I love and appreciate what everyone does in the test kitchen. Thank you. Truly.
The speed of my Bon Appetit clicks is directly proportional to quarantine days
FACTS
Adam really exudes infomercial/qvc energy
omg LOL true
oh my GOD how did you do that
It's his camera poise.
I love Adam so much
He and molly have such a fun energy, even in other videos when the are “fighting” a little bit more they are still having fun
Lol they’re “fighting” cause Molly isn’t a fan of her racist boss.
Bye Adam ✌🏻
This comment did not age well lol Molly probably can't stand the guy, that's why the vibes are like that
I've always liked Adam i dont understand why people didn't like him
GaeFootballClub Have you ever listened to the Bon Appetit foodcast?
@@clairerasincaplan2684 ...no.
Claire Rasin Caplan what happened?
I am genuinely curious to know why people don’t like him as well
He talks over EVERY guest, notwithstanding that they’re the ones with information and insight to offer and so maybe they should be allowed to finish their sentences. And that goes double for female guests.
It's always so fun when Molly brings her dad on the show :D
LOL
And the award for best comment goes to.... (*cues the drum roll*)...
I like their tandem, Adam asks the most helpful questions and Molly is beaming with knowledge. Thanks for such good content, BA!
Molly: "Yeah, the facial."
Molly wears the pants in this relationship
Nah
why do i feel like somebody had to talk to adam and molly before making this being like, "guys just please be civil this time" lol
Listen to the podcast about this recipe. They’re fine!
Adam is the boss. This is Conde Nast. His subscription totals are more than Anna Wintour.
Here is business reality - he has license to do whatever he wants short of getting into a major law suit or getting such bad publicity that it wrecks the business.
recoil53 but Molly definitely knows how to humble him 😂
@@recoil53 "he has license to do whatever he wants"
That's not how it works.
@@telectronix1368 Every story I've ever heard about Conde Nast suggests that's exactly how it works. They don't mind dictators.
Sure there are limits - they don't want a 'Me Too' story. But criticizing an employee? HR is barely pretending to hear that.
This is like a brother and sister fighting over who’s the favorite child haha I love it.
Or more of like Dad trying to bond with his kid but just suck at it.
Chantal G hi
Mae Jee Desendario I’m not a regular dad, I’m a cool dad
@@itpaynesme alright. But i'm talking about Rapo here.
I honestly liked Adam's input in the video, and I found his clarifications and comments very helpful
I really don't get why people dislike Adam, he tries his best and is adorable
Tries his best?? Hes not some poor helpless man. Hes really good at what he does.
Oof this did not age well lol
man as an australian watching american television i always thought they were saying "mozza" ball soup like mozarella balls so this is really eye opening
So you're saying Australians have no awareness of the Jewish people and their most iconic food? Wow, talk about being isolated for the past 2000 years...
Scott R No that’s not what they were saying
Scott R there isn’t a very high Jewish population in Australia. I know two Jewish people, one of them is my grandma and the other is my dad, (technically) who is an atheist. We have mostly SE Asian, Lebanese and Greek culture, Scottish and English as well as obvs indigenous culture which isn’t recognised nearly as much as it should be.
@@scottr939 There are actually a fair amount of Jewish people in Australia. Just I guess not in the area this person lives in.
LOL, there are not many Jewish people **in the entire world** - less than 1% - yet their widespread cultural influence far exceeds their low numbers. Australia has about the average number for a UK country, about .4%. It's hard for me to believe that any reasonably aware Westerner has never heard of Matzoh Ball Soup, it's commonly referenced in TV, movies and books, but the amount of ignorance in the world always surprises me. What's even funnier to me is to try to imagine what a 'Mozzarella Ball Soup' would be like, ew, lol.
"sixteen cups. ...So four quarts."
So a gallon?
That's what I said too.
'Merica!
@@Theorimlig F*** Yeah!
Ah, American maths. I don't understand it at all.
Gotta love the imperial system.
I appreciate these Molly/Adam videos so much. They’re just a fun (and chaotic yes) pair to watch and I enjoy seeing Adam being involved with the videos too. Not to mention this dish looked great 🤙🏽👌🏽
This is the most chill Adam has ever been. So impressed and so glad I gave the video a chance.
My mother was watching over my shoulder to make sure they did it right 😂
LOL amazing
Jing Chen no! Molly mentioned using butter, an absolute no, no. Then Adam said fry in butter, definitely no! No mixing of milk and meat.
@@adamw8469 i mean technically the maza balls themselves are parve you can fry them in butter and eat them, just not with the soup. also molly said she TRIED butter but ended up not using it because it didn't taste good. so i think they did pretty ok. my mother has another secret ingredient which i am not allowed to share :P
also especially if you consider the other passover recipe they've have lol
@@adamw8469 No, she said she'd tried using butter and it didn't taste right. As for Rapo frying them in butter, that was an aside dish, not the main meal.
@@ebonyonce she poured in schmaltz... Not parve anymore..
adam rapoport is much more bearable in this episode compared to the others haha
So excited to enjoy this chaos 😍 I love their dynamic!
I appreciate Adam in this video! Making a conscious effort to learn! Definitely a positive change! 😊
I love how dysfunctional they are together. Such a lovely chaotic energy.
YES!!! Another episode of "Molly asserts her dominance"!
@Dave Daniels does her dominance make you feel insecure?
@@henriquekonradt541 Simp
@Dave Daniels What? She didn't come across like that at all.
@Dave Daniels I'm still not getting an annoying chihuahua vibe.
@Dave Daniels I agree with that.
Excellent instructional video....can't wait to try making it!
Fans of chef John know, “damp hands make smooth balls”.
I darn near spit out my water in laughter!! You my friend, get awarded 250 pts for that comment (granted you can't use the points for anything lol) thanks for the laugh 😆
Other people: How much salt do we need in this recipe and your other recipes?
Molly: Yes
@@smallwonder4465 she adds salt to her smoothies lmao
1 minute in and I already know that this would be chaotic 😂
Faith Marianne Lawas I mean, _it’s Molly._ 😂
The thumbnail with them both talking at once didn’t tip you off?
i've been listening to the podcast non stop lately i now i just love rapo
Correct me if I’m wrong, but did Adam say “correct me if I’m wrong” after every sentence
Ah, I like watching BA test kitchen videos these days because it reminds me of the abundance we used to have. 😂
Rappo: “Rough chop?”
*chops roughly*
Molly: “celery, rough chop”
*does perfectly even slices*
This is the best one of Molly and Adam. Adam definitely improving in every video
I loved Adam in this! He actually had some good questions. The one about the carrot was great in that gave me a size reference for cooking. Great job Adam!
"Molly and Adam make. . ."
oh yes please god yes lmaooooo
Molly: "Adam's never made matzo ball soup before"
Adam: ~takes over entire video~
too many cooks spoil the broth
I really enjoyed how Adam asked the questions, I would have while trying to make this. All the chefs on BA have great personality, but sometimes they skip over stuff because they are already understand how to cook. I know they film these months in advance, but I’d love to see more of this with Adam. I’d also love if Adam showed more of his true self. I fully believe he can let his personality shine, while adding in simple questions. Great video.
People talk about anti-bullying but here we are breaking Adam inside and out
Adam? The serial mansplainer? The racist?
Adam Rapoport is the antagonist of the BATK
Love seeing Sohla hanging at the back in almost all of the videos! 💕
Kinda like this dynamic
He asks the questions a newbie would ask [even though he’s not a newbie]
And Molly answers like the chill person that makes you feel encouraged by “just going for it”
Loved this!!! Comforting, informative, and fun to watch
Molly is a small dose of instant happiness
Her name is Molly after all.
or perhaps that's what you meant lol
Art Lovaa hello
Molly is generally known to give infinite happiness all over the world
I literally have Matzo Ball soup ever Friday Night, and this looks sooooooooooo good. Everyone should Matzo Ball soup: it’s another level of delicious.
Yes, more. Please and thank you.
I've always liked Rapo in BA videos. Love his comentary, he just became better by listening to people in the comments. I hope this thing where he and Molly make stuff becomes a series
first time i’ve seen molly measure salt
She usually measures by the cup.
This is the content I needed. “I love that for us.” -Molly. ❤️
Molly is great, Adam is great, enjoyed the episode. Thanks for the content, BA!
in the beginning you could tell there was tension when he took over chopping veggies but I think they've found a really good dynamic especially through out the video. love these two!!
molly looking like she wants to strangle someone in the thumbnail is just all of us while we’re quarantined w our fams lol
You know, it seems like Rapo learned what his role in the videos is supposed to be and the chemistry works so much better now. I'm kind of all for Adam being in the videos more!
"Sixteen cups. ...So four quarts." umm so a gallon? lol
Superb! Enjoyed the detailed information. All the best!
7:36 I really like the idea of pan-frying leftover matzo balls for breakfast. In my household, matzo balls are always gone in no time and there is never any leftover -- maybe I should double or triple the quantity.
Where do you live right now? Lol do you have a secret grocery store with full shelves?
Alan von Au***** quadruple the quantity. You can never have enough matzo balls!
Hah.
You think there is ever such a thing as "enough" matzo balls.
New lyrics for that well-known, traditional tune: "Oh matzo balls, oh matzo balls, how comforting you truly are".
00:51 mark: Adam has never made this
oh boy
Ananya Iyer hi
Although I've heard of this soup many times, I've never had it. My son shows an interest, so when the quarantine breaks, we'll give the recipe a go.
I've always loved this . . . and wanted to make it. Now I can - - - much obliged! 🤠
I've never been this early for a BA video. Also, I already know this will be a chaotic one 😂
thumbs up for adam being bearable this episode...way to go adam
BA, I appreciate everything you guys do. I love your content.
I appreciate your chef's and every member of your team; crew, cast, etc.
To you and your families be safe.
omg I was craving a video of molly and adam and what do I see when I open youtube. I love them. never stop
rapo's absolute enthusiasm gets me
I always like the Baz - Rapo collaborations.
Great job Rapo! This was a very calm episode and it was very enjoyable
i've made this several times. and i can say that is the BEST freakingly delicious soup i've ever made.
Adam at 13 with braces while playing D&D:
"Itch like a golden Eliksher "
cocogomez1987 Hahaha!!!!
I'm playing an old school RPG in quarantine so that moment really hit me. I figured no-one else would notice it.
meloD30 please say final fantasy tactics !!!!
🤔😂
Adam representing the matzo ball newbs, and I'm so here for it! Go Adam!
Best recipe! Great job Molly👍🏻
Adam makes for such pleasant viewing in this video! They seem to have a nice working relationship which wasn’t really as evident in the past few videos. I learnt loads and Adams insightful questions were so helpful!
