Dessert Pasta from Elf | Botched by Babish

- On this, a very special holiday retrospective, I'm attempting to make a palatable version of Buddy's breakfast-dessert-pasta from the seasonal American classic film (celebrating its 20th anniversary this year), Elf.

Fun Fact: The actual scene where Buddy eats the desert pasta had to be shot twice, because Will Ferrell vomited the first time.
That IS a fun fact
How neat!
It’s not fact if you just assert it. We need citations from another liar if there’s no footage.
@@pleasureincontempt3645: Look it up. Reported by multiple places. They could all be wrong but I don't see anything to suggest otherwise.

0:18 Denial
5:59 Anger
18:08 Depression
19:44 Bargaining
22:18 Acceptance
I appreciate that Denial and Anger have the longest screentime in the video, only leaving to let the last 3 parts in 18/23 minutes in
Wait, but doesn’t bargaining come before… nvm
@@cheesez_115 yes, yes it does
These are the 5 stages of death

From an aesthetic standpoint, what if the pistaco was in the noodles instead of cocoa? Green noodles, maybe chocolate as part of the sauce, can make a little tree out of it
Pistachio infused noodles and maybe a mole for the sauce?
I had this same thought!!!
Maybe next year they can revisit it again with pistachio pasta.
@@jbearclowateryum!
Yeah I was confused by why he was so stuck on the chocolate pasta as well. Maybe even the cookie butter could be used in the pasta and tossed in chocolate sauce and then chopped pistachios (maybe candied in maple syrup somehow?) and homemade marshmallows could be like the sprinkles and mini marshmallows that Buddy put on the pasta. (I wanted less sauce and more toppings from this episode!) It would be more true to the movie and it would taste better. I’m also wondering if the pasta could be boiled in something other than water… like sugar water or coconut milk or something that would make it a little sweeter and not water down the flavor. 🤷🏻♀️
Brad rhyming 'melancholy' with 'ravioli' has the be the biggest brain writing move I've ever seen
Fun fact: there's no tomato sauce on the dessert pasta in the movie scene. There was tomato sauce on the previous pasta he smothers in maple syrup, but the ones that get drowned in sweets were plain.
Unbelievable Babish didn't figure this out with 2 attempts, and a channel dedicated to recreating food from the screen
This is the worst red pill I've ever had to swallow. I'm just upset now.
Botched episodes are so great because they just let Brad off the leash.
Off what little leash he already had 😂
More cities should invest in off-leash chef parks. They need the chance to just be themselves; bark orders, dig through recipe books and sniff at each other’s dishes
I don’t know if I like him unleashed. He seems angry.
I thought Brad was going to end it with "You know what the only thing is that's missing? The Pop-Tarts."
Followed quickly by a perfectly cut anguished scream.
Looks like mistletoe was his bigger priority.
Botched episode s are my favourite episodes! They're so informal and humanising. The dramatic violin cutaway are amazing too.
and something to ponder if there is still a way to pull it off with great results. Only way I could see tat is axe the tomato for some sort of red fruit jam and instead of actual pasta; cookie dough that is piped to look like pasta and then baked.
They were so focused on asking "How do you make chocolate pasta dough," but never stopped to ask "SHOULD you make chocolate pasta dough."
Considering how chaotic these Botched episodes are it's amazing the regular episodes come together in a calm and cohesive manner at all.
I thought he was finally going to acknowledge there wasn’t tomato sauce in the movie
💀💀💀
It's been 7 years since the initial video, and no one on the team bothered to rewatch the scene. I guess Babby is setting himself up for another Botched episode
I just went back to the original video and there was an empty plate covered in red sauce, so you could interpret it as buddy having taken leftover pasta and sauce and mixed in... well everything sweet.
@@benglaser1345 you can see Buddy's spaghetti is free from tomato sauce. The plate covered in red sauce is likely what he made for Mary Steenburgen's character's lunch/breakfast, as they had red sauce
@@benglaser1345 Also, plain pasta doesn't have much flavor. I bet strawberry jam and chocolate sauce could taste decent on regular pasta, if you used enough.
The tomato dessert sauce. In Latin culture is called Dulce de 🍅 tomate we add a little star anise. It’s delicious
I continue to be impressed at the ability of Latin Americans to just turn things into candy.
@@vigilantcosmicpenguin8721 Word
I’m sorry.. it’s 2 am and I stared at my phone for a solid minute before I realized you didn’t mean that you were from Ancient Rome.
@@vigilantcosmicpenguin8721 Indeed, they also use avocados in sweet dishes.
Bro I'm Mexican and have never heard of this.
Babish's Werner Herzog impression is actually fire. I could listen to an entire episode of him just doing that impression
The rhyming narration was an excellent choice, and I thoroughly enjoyed it.
I see unhinged Babish thumbnail, I CLICK
SAME
I've always wanted to see babish make monkeys almond cookies from kung fu panda 1 I think it would be cool
Sounds awfully like an Alvin thing though...
15:19 "Is that why you threw it in the trash?"
15:22 "Just the pregnant ones" 😭💀
I think a ravioli with Nutella filling in a creme anglaise would make a nice dessert.(and maybe with a biscotti crumble on top for some texture.)
I forgot you used to just make the movie/show accurate version. Great episode!
This editing style is really great I’d honestly love to see more unhinged distressed Andrew
Me after seeing the mythical kitchen last meal interview: 🙁
My 3yr old made me watch the sink bit at least 20 times because she found it hilarious. She also bit me in anticipation of rewind number 13, so there’s that 😂
Why not a mascarpone cheese filling to make a "chocolate tiramisu" ravioli? Or would that require a more coffee flavored pasta.
Andrew there’s NO tomatoes in the movie please this is the second time 😭
Why did he even mix tomato with deserts? He might as well add curry, paprika, garlic and onion while he was at it.
I love that banish discovers tomato desserts, because they became popular in the Great Depression.
The dessert tomato was one of his first videos as well, found it kinda weird that he had forgotten about it.

Logged in just to comment!! In Hungary, we have a type of “sweet ravioli” made from potato dough (like gnocchi). The dough is rolled out, filled with jam, cut like ravioli and cooked in boiling water until floating. When they are slightly cooled, they’re rolled in a sugary breadcrumb mixture. 😅
I love Botched by Babish, it gives a view into the hilarious insanity often masked by the professional seeming performance and cuts given in the standard Binging with Babish episodes.
when I heard about the tomato element I figured they'd combine caramelized tomato paste with an actual caramel to give it a kind of umami edge, but this was much more creative
Man I forgot how much I love this series
I love how you rethought every aspect but the chocolate pasta despite that probably being a major factor in the unpleasantness 😂
"Just the pregnant ones." Hahahahahaha! I love Kendall so much!
In the movie it does not look like the pasta has tomato sauce on it.
Andrew is a riot, every botched has me cackling aloud. The folks behind the camera are equally hilarious
Am i confused? Elf pasta doesn't have tomato in it, right? Why did he add tomato? I feel like I'm taking crazy pills
Hank Green actually covered this yesterday; It's not absolutely clear but it does not appear to.
I think it was spaghetti sitting in light tomato sauce in Elf (as Babish makes in the original episode, where tomato does not play more than a bit part)
I think the tomato is ultimately unnecessary to add compared to the litany of junk food buddy added to his breakfast, but to each their own
@@josephnation9063 yeah, I had seen Hanks elf spaghetti video, awesome video btw, and that's what got me so confused
@@commentmanwhoeatsgahbage3022 maybe? No clue, just genuinely perplexed here 👍
All these recipes looked delicious (yes even the ravioli). The Dessert Pasta actually reminded me of this ice cream parlour my parents used to take me and my brother as children growing up in Germany. My brother would always order the spaghetti ice cream, which was just soft served ice cream put through a machine to make it look like spaghetti noodles, and strawberry sauce as the Bolognese. I don't remember our ice cream parlour putting brownie ball pieces in as meatballs, but other people I know said their ice cream parlour did that.
Reminds me of a time I was at an Italian restaurant with my family. My dad saw the waiter bring something to the other table and said "I didn't know they had dessert here"
What he saw: vanilla ice cream with strawberries and chocolate sauce topped with fresh mint.
What it really was: buratta with tomatoes and balsamic topped with fresh basil
Andrew trying to make chocolate pasta is the same thing as Jack Skellington trying to understand Christmas. 😂😂
This would be a wonderful recurring holiday thing, it captures the anxiety of the holidays nicely 😂
Never expected to see this botched episode, but it’s definitely a pleasant surprise.
Kudos to the Christmas style poems intercut with natural voice lines
Tomatoes are technically both a fruit and a vegetable. Fruit is specifically the growth of a plant that produces seeds, while a vegetable can be all kinds of things. Eggplant and peppers, for example, are also vegetables that are the fruit of the plant.
This is like watching someone’s slow decent into madness.
Botched is still my favorite series on the channel. Hoping for more!
Is It CHRISTMAS!?!? A New Botched Episode??? Thank You Andrew! Thanks SANTA!
This entire episode has just been making me think of like a pistachio butter burblone (or however the French spell it) or a pistachio pesto with this chocolate pasta
It’s Beurre blanc :) it means white butter x
@@Montyjones680 thank you!
Babish looks insanely chaotic and I Love it, its like my hollyday animal spirit
In 1990, we served Chocolate fettuccine with raspberry couli topped with grated white chocolate at a restaurant I worked at in Hampton, Virginia.
Fun fact: Tomato is a fruit AND a vegetable taxonomically, but a vegetable and not a fruit culinarily
Yup. Ask Arkansas.
Thank you! I keep trying to tell people this.
Botanically a fruit, but culinarily a vegetable. In school, I was told to refer to tomatoes as “fruit-vegetables”.
so we just gonna gloss over the clip that came along with that segment? 😭
All fruits are vegetables, so none of that matters.
Other vegetables that are actually fruits, but nobody ever points them out: cucumber, eggplant, squash, pumpkin, bell peppers, chili peppers.
This is EXCELLENTLY edited. Well done editor!
the rhyming couplets really make this video
"Spoilers are fine, it's all about the journey... you know this will end poorly, you're still watching" is totally a mood. 🤣
Making a striped pasta dough with dark and light stripes would make the pasta a lot more appealing and also festive. I had the thought of using the tomato coulis as a dipping sauce for fried raviolis.
Babish seems so much happier in this episode, makes more jokes, and seems more lighthearted and it makes me happy 🫶🫶🫶
One time in Paris i had a tomato-based dessert, and it was awesome. The restaurant used glazed balsamic in place of maple syrup and served with a marscapone cream
Exactly the kind of unhinged Christmas spirit that I needed today. Thank you.
I can see the life draining from his eyes throughout this episode and that's what Christmas is all about. Happy bah humbug!
It’s amazing how short the old videos were
Love Botched! Hope there are more episodes in the new year! Although it’s clearly hard to find mistakes to put into these episodes, since the team is so great. The scotch egg episode is my favourite, I have watched it many times.
Kendall saying “Just the pregnant ones” made me spit out my Froot Loops.
My mom ate tomato slices on buttered bread with sugar when a child in Nebraska and tomatoes were ripe on the farms. She always said "You don't know what tomatoes are." to us. They are fruit, and sweet.
The one thing that should be consider a dessert, and that's Spaghetti Eis, it's a dessert from Germany that is meant to look like a plate of Spaghetti with Marinara sauce and Parmesan cheese. Interesting thing, its vanilla ice cream pushed through a frozen potato ricer, topped with strawberry sauce, and finally, garnished with white chocolate.
I've been watching babish for YEARS. he's only grown more and more unhinged as time goes on.
Best Christmas present ever: a new Botched ❤❤
I love the Christmas narrative. Its just perfect and I want them more often lol
You could have copped out and made a German spaghetti ice. That certainly would have been much easier than actually making the chocolate pasta.
But this seems like it was more fun.
Merry Christmas
I love brad’s comedy in the botched videos lol
Glad to see Babish having fun!
This is perfect for any restaurant that specializes in pasta dishes.
3:51 made me really happy, my Grandma used to pronounce "wash" (and other similar words) like that. She was the only one I knew who did that, miss her so much.
“Is that… why you threw it in the trash?”
.
“Just the pregnant ones”
.
Merry Christmas!!!
Andrew, I need you to know I got your books for Christmas. Basics with Babbish made me cry. I never thought to cookbook could do such a thing….
By far my favorite series on your channel, and this episode is definitely one of the best. Not only is your creative and skillful culinary genius on display, but the comedic chemistry of the entire crew shines like a Christmas Star. Absolutely brilliant, thanks for everything you do and keep up the fantastic work!
And do try not to launch a missile at Brad’s toe.
Merry Christmas!!
I had a chef that worked for me that had a "caprese" signature desert! Tomato coulis, brûlée burrata and basil ice cream. It was always a huge hit!
Your enthusiasm is infectious! I can feel it! Merry Christmas!
Your*
@@jameswent48 indeed! Thanks! Merry Christmas 🎁
Thank you for these episodes - they are absolutely hilarious to watch.
"Is that why you threw it in the trash?"
Kendal : "Just the pregnant ones"
Merry Christmas babbish love these silly episodes
I always love Botched by Babish videos. Love them more than normal ones.
Please get Werner Hertzog to make a documentary about you cooking
Huh, the tomato coolie sounds like a stellar find. It'll be interesting to see it show up again later.
Brad, your slant rhymes are killing me.
The rhyming with the preexisting lines was clever, though.
There is a baked Italian ravioli from the 14th century. It has a shortbread-ish exterior and a sweetened marzipan filing. The raviolis are baked crisp and decorated.
love the rhymes!!!!! they make the episode much more chaotic and so grinch worthy
"Always gestureally rinse you vegetables like that's gonna do anything. MERRY CHRISTMAS!" - Merry Christmas to you too Babish!
I had to stifle a cackle at “just the pregnant ones.”
Yeah, the "rinsing vegetables" take is too real. Almost heard my head chef from place where I used to work
Love this series! Keep going 😊😊😊😊❤❤
I'm on season 3 of Lost and I'm not even mad. This is the funniest way I could've found out.
Love your content, thank you for making such awesome creative stuff
I feel like obvious choice for sweet ravioli is the filling that goes in tiramisu… that would be so tasty
I’ve made chocolate ravioli like this with raspberry and mascarpone, topped with crème anglaise for Valentine’s Day back when people liked me.
This is truly chaotic yet somehow blessed
Yes! I missed the last one by almost a month so catching this one within 12 hours, let’s go! Merry Christmas er’rrybody.
I have been waiting for this half of the episode for *years*
These are my favorite episodes
One of my favorite episodes, I appreciate the laughs. Hope you have a happy rest of your year babish. Mistletoe.
I am a simple man (sometimes. . .)
I see a new Babbish video, I click it!
And at other times I have more discerning tastes.
In fact, a collab with Tasting History, Townsends, one or more of the Chefs from Epicurious (Chefs Frank, Saul, and/or Yuji?) and reuniting with Sohla El-Waylly, would be the most amazing thing ever!
Imagine, a bunch of internet and real-life Chefs giving the famous British guy (Gordon Ramsay) a heart attack!
This looks delicious
I remember making dessert pasta inspired by Elf as a kid, but my version was very plain. It consisted of plain spaghetti noodles tossed in pancake syrup. Overall not bad, though nowadays I'd probably toss them in custard or something. Maybe a nice cinnamon sauce to go along with the holiday season?
That was actually the best laugh of the holidays ty 😂
What a dedication to the craft, I really enjoyed watching the process of you putting together such a ridiculous dish with so much effort
This just made my whole week
