- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 29 ต.ค. 2019
- For this episode of '4 Levels,' we challenged chefs of three different levels - an amateur, a home cook and a professional - to make their versions of chicken soup. Once each of them had completed their culinary creation, we brought in a food scientist to review their work. Whose version of the classic sick-day remedy looks the most appetizing to you?
Check out the level 3 recipe on the ICE blog: www.ice.edu/blog/epicurious-c...

4 Levels of Chicken Soup: Amateur to Food Scientist | Epicurious - บันเทิง
Level 1 chef: I prefer white meat
Level 2 chef: I prefer dark meat
Level 3 chef: ChIcKeN iS cHiCkEn
Pablo Nieto level one chef - chicken breast.
Level two chef - chicken legs.
Level three frank - I was once the chicken I am now using
@@savysimracing i love this reply because it implies there's levels of Frank now
@@everythingilikerules yeah I'm a level 2 Frank
@@savysimracing also he only ate vegan food if he didint get it he wouldn't eat
@@savysimracing LMAOZJJSZJXKSKKS 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Level 1: I like to use the breast
Level 2: I like to use the legs
Level 3: I like to use two whole chicken and also add the farmer that raised them
roudari20 lmao
Level 4: title clickbait
Lmboooo
Lmao. Accidental cannibalism.
😂 😂 😂 Y'all are crazy
Frank’s soup: the most professional
Johns soup: the easiest
Gabrielles soup: the most expensive (saffron)
That saffron is the cheap low quality left over the inner parts of the saffron flower. All that costs like 5€ here in Europe. The real high quality saffron from Iran would cost like 100€ for that amount. Trust me, I'm Iranian!
And you forgot the white wine.
Before someone @ about that, yes there are cheap alternatives, but if you want something to add a nice, rich flavor you might want to spring for the slightly more expensive alternative.
@@ashkanahmadi Oh cool, but sadly my country and Iran don’t like eachother:(
@@ashkanahmadi the world's most expensive saffron is made in Kashmir. Trust me I'm Indian
@@wyvern4597 nah
Me: "am straight!"
Gabrielle: "what is that? Who is she? She's saffron! "
I get you !
Bi awakening

All the 3 comments to this reply sums up who takes what from a sentence. Lol. Each took something. Wholesome comments.
@@KrisAllam i said it jokingly lmfao
level 1: i’m a level 1 chef
level 2: i’m a level 2 chef
level 3: *i’ve been gods personal chef since the beginning of time*
Yeshua Messiah My Adonai My Savior ok boomer
LOL no doubt. amazing
ummmm...that'd be barry, not frank
Yeshua Messiah My Adonai My Savior Ok boomer
LOL
As soon as I see Frank, I know this mans boutta educate me on why the chicken is even named chicken
Yeah
Was gunna say something like this lol
When i see Frank i go in comments and look for his memes
But he didn't explain why the chicken crossed the road. It wanted to be coq au van. Chicken (coq) ran over by a van.
@El Qone'ars fr tho like where does he work at
When frank didn't make his own spices and chicken : *my disappointment is immeasurable*
And my day is ruined
a match made in heaven
And my life is ruined
My husband and I have made Frank's chicken soup a few times and it's so gosh darn delicious. We have to keep watching this video in order to get the recipe right since there's no standalone video of his chicken soup recipe, so I have finally succumbed to just scrubbing through the video several times just to watch Frank's segments and write everything down. So far, I've been doing this for about 45 minutes. -_-
I have made it as well and I enjoyed it very much!
If you write down the time stamps of the parts you like and then list them in a comment you will always be able to just click to the bits you want to watch again.
@@211Shinobu Thank you! You are a lifesaver. I lost the document I made for this recipe. I've been craving this for the past year. LOL
@@rojiroco You're welcome! ^_^
@@rojiroco Do you have Frank's complete recipe jotted down? May I ask for a copy of it? Need it for people recovering from Covid :(
Beginners Soup: My soup takes 1-2 hours to make
Home Cooks Soup: My soup takes 3-4 hours
Frank: Best I can do is 5 years take it or leave it
Son: *dies*
Frank: Just has to simmer for another hour
Son: *still dead*
Frank: don't worry it only needs 40 more minutes
Son:desintigrates and soul goes to heaven
Frank:Done!
I've make my chicken soup exactly the way he does, and it does take some time. No way you could make 3 meals a day cooking this way and still have an actual job
Underrated comment I CACKLED
John : “I buy the chicken in the supermarket”
Gabrielle : “I buy the chicken from my local farmer”
Frank : “I like to improve the flavour of the chicken by *being* a chicken”
😂😂😂 You're a clown
#topcommentgod
I am dying
😂😂😂😂😂😂
That's what I'd like to call a pro gamer move
Anyone else jealous of how CLEAR Gabrielle’s complexion is?
I'm sure the makeup artist can do the same for everyone.
Nah
I love hers
Does horny count? Or do I have to be jealous only?
Nah, some people really be like that. They wake up like that. Even if she is not one of them, those people exist and I gel.
John: *uses chicken breast*
Gabrielle: *uses legs*
I bet Frank’s gonna use a whole chicken.
Frank: I like to use whole chickens
Well excuse me then, nevermind.
We're going to find a happy free range hen and have her mate with a brawny free range rooster. We will take the resulting egg and incubate it under our arm for earthiness and then raise the chick gluten free on artisanal grains (organic) allowing it to socialize with other 1% chicks. Sadly, the perfect chicken will be slaughtered. By a rabbi. We're making soup after all.
How did you think this was going to end, you buffoons
Aryiana Moore we’ve been bamboozled with TWO chickens!! 🐓 🐓
@@xinyiwang7582 omg i saw you 3 times this month, did we have the same yt topics to watch?!😱
chicken breast for chicken soup lol what a stupid idea... Chicken breast is the driest part of chicken
I thought every1 knows that to make a good chicken stock you have to use the bones
That's because John's like the whole bird, if you don't mind..
Level 1: Imma add in some pasta
Level 2: Imma add in some pasta
Frank: lets make dumplings
I want dumplings
Dumplings > noods
levels get even higher than that, like making chicken mouseline or even little chicken tortellini out of the mousseline to finish the soup and clarifying the stock to make consomme and serving your "mirepoix" as a blanched brunoise...
djrakman I said dumplings cuz he actually made dumplings... not because that was the hardest to do
@@oly6732 and im saying even the chef only made level 3, i just explained level 5-6, there are levels to this as you tried pointing out
I can't be the only one just wanting them to try each other's soup...
I was waiting for that.. if I were participating I would want to taste the food of the other chefs
Not gonna lie, when it comes to simplicity John's soup looks the best. Every culture has it's own version of chicken soup/noodle soup, and it's the simplicity that makes it the best.
My family preference is the simple soup
Adding tomato is an automatic fail.
Dude using a whole chicken is super easy.
Salt (24hr prior) and roast a whole chicken in the oven.
Bam you have chicken to eat one night
Break it down and throw the leftover bones and connective tissue/skin into the pot.
Add water
Add aromatics
Simmer for 4 hours
Bam. You have soup.
@@sebeckley but the flava is more
U hate good food just because they put something that usually isn't there?
Like onion rings in a burger?
Yes, it looks good I just add a whole chicken 🐓
I appreciate Frank more after watching the spaghetti and meat balls video.

Level 100 Chef: “So now we’re just gonna get a plane ticket to Kazakhstan to mine some iron for the pan...”
We've managed to clone an extinct chicken described as the most delicious.
But to truly make chicken soup from scratch, you must first create the universe.
Let’s talk to the Dinosaurs while we wait for it to finish cooking.
Steel can’t be mined, it’s an alloy

That's the channel How To Make Everything
I love these videos. Even though they are showing differing levels of experience and expertise, they're never mean-spirited. I never feel as though the beginners are ever treated with disrespect. I don't know. It's encouraging.
Right! The level ones and twos and tons of personality…and then there’s God level chef Frank 💪🏽
Tried Frank’s recipe on a cold rainy day, absolutely amazing. So worth it 🤤
Wow, I can't even see or get what ingredients he used man
@@fizzahyder2965 I didn’t try the exact recipe, obv., but used a lot of the techniques and ingredients he did mention and the quantities I could guess
@@Tuddziedid you made the dumplings also? How was the taste
Level 3 chef: "Fond."
*Babish wants to know your location.*
What is more interesting is how much it is integrated in the american cooking culture, that fond means what they think it means
In french what they called fond are called "sucs de cuisson"
And what we call fond is stock.
We have "fond blanc" which translate to "white stock" which is made just by boiling without browning the meat.
And "fond brun" brown stock, which is made by browning the meat first and then deglazing.

Damn must have commented at the wrong time to only get 1 like for an extremely similar comment
Were fond of fond here 😁

John is so normal. He picked up his hot soup and jumped because he forgot it was hot. We have all done this. John is a man of the people.
Pharaoh Misa we need to se More of John, we love John :)
No more jooon
He fruity tho
John acts like he knows what hes doing and its embarrassing
@@jasonpham8334 Fruits are very healthy.
John sounds like a professional he’s really articulate when he speaks
Bro what kind of face is that?
"Can we not use that for the final cut?" They used it for the final cut.
I came here to find this comment 🤣😭
This! The editor had fun😂😂😂😂
they should add a forth level, it being someone who has no idea what they’re doing.
Level 0?
Rock I suggest watching “50 people try”
The level 0 who uses a can of chicken soup, puts it in a bowl and microwaves it?
Rock so umm first you open the can...
Here I am.
Honestly all of these recipes are amazing in their own right
The only real "mistake" I could find was the use of all white meat and let's be real, it's a very common mistake and not a huge problem.
white meat and crackers is a miss for me dawg
i feel like they should all try each others’ dishes.
The first time I saw it I thought the same, although I think pro chefs would be kinda insulted by the 1 chefs
@sheldon pereira that was my first thought
The level three chef sure going to roast up the level 1 chef
Paige Johannesen I bet they film on different days
Onces Malaysia I don’t think so because base on the food scientist all the Level 1 chef dishes look crazy but they flow well together.
my favourite chef combos
emily + lorenzo + frank = some bomb dinner foods
steven + beth + penny = for amazing breakfast + desert dishes
bianca + Gabriella + yuji = the best asian food!!
dont forget emily +lorenzo+saul
My Soup recipe when I sick. Immune Booster Soup:
Ingredients:
Chicken, 1 Breast + 1 Leg
Little White Pepper
Little Black Pepper
Lots of Garlic
Little Sugar
Salt ( as needed )
Method:
1 - Mix all this together in 1 litre of water. Add salt less than needed, will adjust later.
2 - When it comes to boil, make heat on very low, place lid on top of it, let it simmer for 1 hour.
3 - After one hour, half of water will be gone. Adjust salt level in remaining soup.
Enjoy it hot, will bring out bad stuff from chest and nose, even if you are not sick.
These level 1 chefs are overqualified for level 1!
This is why I miss Emily. She'd probably make a ketchup chicken soup, all from cans.
@@wetsponge175 this was trash soup tho
@@wetsponge175 true amateur uses a soup kit for prechop mirepoix (not that they know that term)
@@G-LukeJA Trash soup is canned broth and chicken. He at least put some effort into making the soup.
He cooked his veggies with raw chicken.... they need to be cooked at different temperatures. Also, its kinda dangerous if not cooked properly, can cause cross contamination
sekailu is this really an issue?? If your cooking your soup for an hour or so won’t both be cooked through eliminating any issue of cross contamination?
The level 1 chef is confident with his own recipe makes me so proud 😢
Hell yeah, So proud John 🥰
He's proud of using lots of white meat. His recipe sucks.
Dominic Snyder nah dark meat is nasty 🤢
@@DominicSnyder What's wrong with white meat?
@@RekaCath it's so dry and flavorless.
“Who is she?”
“She’s saffron”
I feel like I’m the only one who found that comment funny.
i saw the thumbail, the green chicken soup, and i immediately said "that's gotta be gabrielle."
she's the only one who makes food, that isn't supposed to be green, green! 😭
But it looks so gooooooood
@@Abiigaiilrx ha
My favourite combo is Emily, lozenzo and frank. All time ogs
I feel Grandma is better than Lorenzo when it comes to sweets. And after Emily's attempt at French Toast, Emily should probably be kept away from sweet dishes as well
The Holy Trinity of Three Levels of Chef.
Yesssssssss
Same girl
So their Burger video
Chicken soup isn't truly Level 1 unless a can opener is involved somewhere.
Well level 1 wasn't even really soup it was just chicken and veggies in hot water. Probably wasn't seasoned well at all
what made his level 1 was the fact that he cooked those nice breasts by just boiling them to death
I really was expecting lvl 1 to bust out some premade chicken stock and add chicken and veggies to it 😂
Nobody makes chicken soup it comes in tins, fizzy pop comes in cans, food in tins.
Bruh stop roasting this dude, he loves his recipe so it doesn’t really matter
I love the Level 4 expert! It’s fun to hear about the break down of each dish
When John said "it tastes like mom's.." you know at that moment it is immune from hate.
ironically the level 3's recipe was probably the least expensive to make
My mom cooks like that.
Which is what chefs are taught to do. Make the best you can with the least you can
And from how it was made it should be most delicious one.
No, it was not. Whole chicken costs a lot more than drumsticks. Leg quarters is the way to go - the pound for way under $1.
@@uweschroeder whole chicken is 1.65 per pound while drumsticks are 1.84 per pound. nice try though.
Chefs: I make this in the winter
Mexicans: I make this on hot summer days all the time
All the time*
This made me laugh 😂
jajajaa alch
Poles: I make this every Sunday
In most places it's cold enough outside that you make chicken soup to warm up. In Mexico it's so hot that you make it to cool down.
Been watching these comparisons for a while. But this one got me. I find all of them great. All three did great for me. Not judging. Just saying I loved all the methods. They all gave me a new learning perspective. I truly appreciate this video.
I'm not a big soup person, but as someone who likes those Middle/Eastern European vibes in food, Frank's looks absolutely phenomenal. I'd definitely have some of that.
Two of these are chicken soup and one is boiled vegetables
Lmao that's so true
And boiled chicken. Simmering a chicken breast for 90 minutes?
BryceBryceBaby actually the guy that “over did it” with the vegetables was on the right path because the Vegs add a savoryness but you need at least 1 whole chicken and 3-4 leg thighs. Traditional chicken soup does not have tomato, lemon zest or any of that stuff. And for god sakes where are the side of egg noodles. My god what an omission.
John's is simpler than the others but he definitely created a broth, and with herbs.
And talk about a rough chop on the veg. Nobody wants gigantic chunks of veggies in their chicken soup unless you're a Communist
Level 3 chef: *STARTS HEATING UP STEEL TO CREATE A POT*
@vXAcromatics YT Hot steel will burn the genitals.
This wad a beautiful comment section to read
American viewers: why is the level one chef using a real chicken
Wrong. He first has to mine the iron, purify the iron and add carbon into to make steel
vXAcromatics YT *Yes 69*
John is so positive hes the reason i started not removing my vegetables from my chicken soup he made it look good so i tried it and its good! Thx john
Frank skipped the part where he hatches the chicken from the egg, feed it, kill it, take it's feathers off and just went straight into how you cut it apart.
is this the first time that the professional chef's method is not totally insane and actually doable at home?
Totally!
I found the mac and cheese one to be doable as well.
None of them have been “totally insane” you just lack skill
@@suicidalnematode4476 yes clearly every household owns a pasta machine, a smoker, can afford dry aged beef, expensive cheeses or exotic ingredients and everyone can wait 2 days to a week to make one meal. Yup i agree
Remember the cheese wheel😂😂😂
Level 1: “I get my chicken soup from a can”
Level 2: “I make a pretty good chicken soup”
Level 3: “I personally care for and sit on eggs until they hatch. I then raise the newly hatched baby chicks so they become strong and powerful chickens. Once they have reached their greatest strength, I know they will be delicious. That is when I kill them and chop them up so I can make my chicken soup”
MORE POWER lol
You need more likes! Lmao!
LOL! I started laughing so hard, seeing Frank sitting on eggs, clucking at them. I don't know why this image is making me laugh so hard!
Lmaooo this is accurate asf
Wtf. You’re insane. My stomach pains. Dafuq.
I learned something from all three chefs/cooks! I love the turnips and parsnips. I also like the lemon and saffron. I always like Frank's recipes.
What a terrific video! Thanks!! All soups look delicious!
“Let’s not use this for the final cut”
*uses it in the final cut
Lmaoo
The producers were like " hell nah, this is too good"
Amateur- “the juicy white meat”
Ah yes, the white meat, clearly more juicy than the dark meat whose whole concept is to be juicier than the white meat
You know it had to be there. It’s federal law, I think...
Emily: We're gonna do something the french call 'pinsage'. That means lightly browning our ketchup.
Lololololol... out of the packet
This is perfect

Awesome, thank you so much 🙏
I’m disappointed in Frank. He was supposed to make his own pot
damn dude made my day LOL!!
I wasnt expecting it
Lmao
YES
@@r4ut439 What about the Spanish Inquisition?
Frank is the man. Always learn a lot when he's on
Matthew yes
I was so happy that he showed how to break down a chicken. A lot of people don’t know how to do that properly
He’s the best, and Lorenzo is second best
So interesting so see how other people make chicken soup! I usually keep to the quitesentials (for me chicken thighs, carrots, celery, salt & water of course, lots of parsley at the end and thin pasta or dumplings). Adding acidity/ souerness for me it's another category (in my country we call these ciorba, Turkish influence) but I will try some of the other things seen here :)
All three of these recipes look awesome. John is adorable.
Frank is one of my favourite chefs because he puts his heart in the dish and he's very down to earth when explaining things such as in the previous videos of 50 people try and the last video of answering questions about spaghetti and meatballs.
and he still bring that salt thing in this video. its awesome guy
me too
And he never goes far beyond what the original recipe calls for.. He has improvements but didn't make sorbet when they are tasked with making an icecream sundae. And most importantly, it is something you can do at home, even more so than the level 2 chef in this case unless you happen to have insanely expensive saffron.
@@BreakingStarGames or a wheel of Grana Padano. That was a bit exaggerate
But Lorenzo though
I want to see the three chefs taste each others' dishes.
They should have slid the bowls across the screen.
They can’t cause some of them chef take days to make a meal
Now your just talking dirty
Y E S this comment has been added over and over ... why don't you LISTEN
They would have to have 3 separate rooms so they can each taste it when it is fresh...(I wouldn't suggest they film with all 3 cook in the same room at the same time. it would really hard for each to talk to the camera only and the audio would be a nightmare, even if they did)
Level 0:
buys chicken soup from progresso
All three look good, thanks for the video. Happy New Year!
Let's be real. Frank's shoup looks so good
Too tomatoey for my liking.
Yeah franks shoup looks amazing like seriously look at that shoup
lougine goulla shoup 😂 perfect
Shoup
I like shoup
You know damn well an amateur would just get a canned soup
Or at least use storebought broth.
ok but, store brought canned soup or broth are both good alternatives
I was thinking the same thing.
@@user-dx8nj7qj2g in a pinch they're okay but I think making stock from scratch is better, and not really difficult. I buy a precooked chicken from the deli counter at the grocery store, strip the meat and use the scraps to make stock. Put it in a soup pot, cover with water, optionally add onions, and cook on low heat for a few hours.
Masked Guitarists lol
I love how Gabrielle's version looks
The level 1 chef is such a sweetheart
Level 1 chef : "i buy my chicken soup"
Level 2 chef: "i make my Chicken soup"
Level 3 chef: "i am the chicken soup"
Yung Chxnk I am chicken soup, and chicken soup is me
level 4 chef: cluck
I make my chicken, it’s feed and any other part of the soup from scratch
@@gaboratoria even the soil to plant the vegetables lmao
That joke doesn't work for this video
frank is the only level 3 chef that isn’t depressed.
ItsYourGirlWes I see your statement and raise you a Saul
Chris
@@bugejoahshowalter3747 Frank and Saul are my favs
Penny too, she just likes to drink.
He keeps his wife happy
These level 2s are always amazing
I reckon I'm at 0.5 level. Because lazy. I just take everything and dump it in the electric slow cooker. Usually an entire chicken chopped up (wash out the blood and clean out the rib cage if you want a cleaner soup), an equivalent weight or more in vegetables, and 2 chicken stock cubes with 2L+ of water. Stews for at least 4h. Salt, soy sauce and sesame oil to taste at the end. Counts as food prep and one pot is my dinner for 4 days.
I'm Asian, so a bowl or two of white rice and sliced small red chilli (the very spicy kind) in thick dark soy sauce (the kind meant for chicken rice).
Level 1: Still explaining why he likes chicken breast.
Level 3: Already finished the stock.
Replace the food scientist with all the chefs trying and each other’s food
Lmfao just have both
I agree but I love the food science
Could easily add the taste testing without removing the science.
Have both
array s A lot of people leave during that part tho
This is my first time loving level 3's recipe
More of this four levels series, please!! 🫶🙏
"What is that?"
"Who is she?"
"𝗦𝗵𝗲'𝘀 𝗦𝗮𝗳𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗻"
Crush multiplied by 10 when she said that, lol
"Sweetie, darling..."
😂 that girl was so nice I love her vibe
Careful, she will steal your spaceship.
I came just to see if someone wrote a comment about that 😂😍
There an inconsistency with how level one the level ones are
That has to do with the dish they are tasked with though. The level 1 they choose has to actually be able to make the dish, and no offence to Emily but someone with her skills and lack of enthusiasm definitely cannot make chicken soup.
We should actually be comparing the technical skills and recipes between the 3 levels instead of just assuming all level 1s will pull out packaged mixes or burn everything. Compared to the other two, John's skill was very fitting for level 1 as he simply tossed everything into the pot and boiled it.
@@user-pm7me3xc2c I think choices of ingredients is a big factor too. Unless it's an authentic ingredient you grew up eating, something like Saffron is only gonna be used by hobbyists (level 2s) and above. Same with the French toast video, an amateur isnt buying a loaf of brioche for that.
I agree with that.
But I also think the saffron Gabrielle used was completely wasted in her soup. It seemed like a big mistake for a level 2 to make. Saffron is too delicate and expensive an ingredient to toss into a soup where other herbs overpower the flavour. If you use saffron in a dish, the flavour should anyways stand out.
Almost as if they're different people
@@LarryNoir
Most people aren't going to buy brioche for french toast, not even level 3 chefs (partially because they know that the best type of bread to use is stale bread).
Home cooks are my favourite tbh, they really know how to make the best comfort food
oh my god this is such an amazing educational video! better explanation than in my professional cooking class
When you're Mexican & your mom makes chicken soup even in 100° weather .
Millie Diaz not gonna lie, that hits a little different then even regular chicken soup.
You mean pasole. GF mom makes that all summer long, and wonders why everyone doesn't want any...well until the chancla comes out lol
Millie Diaz literally 😂 im from asia and it’s summer everyday but my mother still make soup most of the week
@@RyuuRhal Posole is different than chicken soup though.
In croatia my mom makes chicken soup everyday
Level 4 chef: so let's buy this land here so we can start a farm to get the chicken and vegetables
Level 4 is the boring food scientist
Level 5: Time to create another planet to house my new farm to create my own genetically modified chicken that's pre-seasoned, as well as grow my own vegetables that have been growing since the beginning of all time
I'm shocked that Frank didn't start by raising his own chicken!!!
I cannot wait to incorporate these level 3 tips for a higher level chicken soup!
Level 2 casually dumps $50 of saffron in the skillet.
CliveAtFive yeah that kinda hurt to watch
She probably used some lower quality stuff, it can be pretty cheap
I mean, when Epicurious is footing the bill...
tigerheaddude didn’t know you could get cheaper stuff. I mean it’s literally the stigmas of crocuses there’s surely a limit of how cheap?
Elliot Rook yeah, but low quality. I remember buying from a local supermarket what amounts to a quarter of a handful of saffron for about one dollar. It was low quality and didn't have a strong aroma, but it did change the food's colour well.
Frank: first I’ll start by taking a fertilized egg and incubating it for around 21 days until the chick hatches
Frank: Personally, I like to give birth to the chicken. It ensures it has the taste I want.
Frank: If you impregnate your own hen, the egg will have a really lovely natural flavour
😂
LMAO
Each of these has its place. I can easily see myself making each one.
When I saw that Frank was using a whole chicken, I immediately knew that he was making a fond for his base. The flavor is next level when browning the bones and scraping the bits making it waaaay better than broth.
Professional chef: for this soup I gave birth to the chicken
zomgseriosuly oh god🤣😂😂
😂😂
And send the chicken to Montessori School.
Why is no one talking about Frank's blue eyes
They are to die for
I thought only i liked them
Ikr, also the other food scientist, Rose, has gorgeous eyes.
exactly!
I did notice them. They were really bright. Wonder if he's named after Sinatra 🤔
@ChubbyBunny Rivera cool.
I made the pro level for my friends they loved it thanks for the awesome recipe
I actually already did Frank’s recipe as the usual one, of course not in his fasion and waaay less herbs.
But I will definitely start adding dumplings to the soup now, since I looooove dumplings.
Okay. Frank won this one hands down. He had me when he browned his meat first.
I agree but it's not even a competition😞
No Way! Frank added tomato paste and dumplings! That's not chicken soup. Any one of us can make a weird concoction and call it chicken soup
flamingpie herman you’re right anyone can that’s why its considered an art.
@@flamingpieherman9822 Dumplings are a very common addition to chicken soup. So many cultures do this. Not sure why you consider that weird.
flamingpie herman chicken and dumplings soup is extremely popular and you can find it at your local grocery store right next to the chicken soup with noodles 😑 get some culture man
Frank: *Shows up in a video*
Me: "It's about to go down."
Start of the video: Level 2 and 3 chef starts cooking
Middle of the video: John still waffling about how good chicken breasts are
can we just talk about how the level 1 soup looks soooooooo flavourlesss
Well it's got chicken breasts (flavorless), a huge pile of celery (flavorless) and turnips (flavorless), and then a huge pile of parsley (flavorless). Can't imagine why it would look like a black hole of flavor!
and he crushed bloody saltines, who does he think he is. Im jewish and i find this a highly offensive video :)

The one Frank made mostly resembles the one my mom makes 🥰 She always uses a whole chicken, sometimes even two smaller ones. We have our own chickens, they have a good quality life, being spoiled rotten. Getting loads of treats and freedom to wobble around our yard. We even have a rooster with the ladies and they have fun, but non of the hens actually goes and sit on the eggs to breed them.. Sometimes we get a batch that we dont eat and breed out those eggs. The little chicks are the cutest thing ever. Unfortunately for the hens at some point they get to old to lay eggs and thats about the point they will be taken away. I could never do that my self, but my dad was taught by his dad who used to have a small chicken farm. (This was way back in the 70s or 80s I think, when everything wasnt massproduced but everything was very locally based and the animals had way better quality of life.) Anyway, those are the chickens we use for the soup and the recipe is almost the same as what Frank does in this video. The only difference i saw so far was the use of dumplings, which isnt really common in the Netherlands. We mostly use vermicelli, which is basically spaghetti, but thinner and shorter strands. I love to have loads of it in most of my soups 🤤
But.. honestly the dumplings are looking very appetizing as well, so I am certainly going to give that a try! 😁
Watching Frank butcher a chicken is a master class in itself. I like that he did smaller, dropped dumplings instead of cut ones... they probably thicken the soup a lot more, too. I'll have to try that next time. (And I'm totally stealing that pincage.)
But Frank, stop dissing my Oma. Aside from the pincage, your method is a LOT closer to how she used to make chicken soup.
Btw, a note to the subtitler:
HARDY = tough, sturdy, resilient
HEARTY = substantial, satisfying, wholesome (which is what she was saying)
As a straight man, Frank's eyes are so blue they're mesmerizing. Whoever did the lighting knows how to bring the color of his eyes out.
As a straight man that's a WHOLE LOTTA GAY THERE FAM
