I've watched this like 20 times and realized that what's so striking about this dish is the simplicity, not in preparation but number of ingredients. In my mind, this shows true skill.
Onion, egg, salt, milk, oats, sugar, vinegar, butter, dates, and chives. Certainly the most complex combination of these simple things I've ever seen. Also, I have never seen something like this happen to an egg before.
Made this today. Was gorgeous, so elegant and good. The butter onion reduction was absolutely decadent - could eat alone! Wow your guests with this one.
@@retrorecall He takes it out of a shell, so it's not poached. It seems like an extremely soft boiled/steamed egg. I'd steam an egg in about a pinkie nail depth of water with residual heat in the pot for 6-7 minutes and see how that matches.
@@Cuchulainn1984 6-7 mins worked. i boiled water, then reduced it to a simmer and the put the eggs in for about 7 mins and the yolk separates perfectly while maintaining form, thanks again
I KNOW! and you could tell Kinch really wanted him to succeed, but at the same time syhabout was a little nervous about how his dish would be received. I was on the edge of my seat.
Some McDonald’s do need to be Yelped. One time when I was in Santa Monica, I saw a white homeless guy inside who looked like he was a regular by the way everyone talked to him, and these black people kept yelling. If I Yelped that McDonald’s it would get a 1 just for the area I was in to warn tourists. I was east or west on Santa Monica boulevard of Beverly Hills (I passed through the past night) at about 730am and was just walking around waiting for an event to start at the Red Bull Arena. Earlier that morning at about 6:30 on the same street or nearby, I saw a black man yelling like he was on crack and yelled ata woman “What are you looking at?” It was crazy but I’m glad I saw him so I didn’t walk further down the street I was walking on because who knows where I would’ve ended up if he was just on the edge. The craziest thing I saw in Santa Monica (if those weren’t crazy enough), on Santa Monica Blvd near Beverly Hills, I saw (the past night) a guy screeming “shit, fuck” and saw a woman leaning out of the side of the car. I could not tell if she was dead or just threw up, but he sounded too worried and scared for his car to just be thrown up in. He asked a man to call someone on their phone, but I upped my pace a little when I was walking. Anyways, I’m never going back to Santa Monica/Blvd. I was on the main street between the beach and Hollywood. Yelp review McDonald’s 1 star, that area 2 stars because Beverly Hills looks really nice.
My husband just loves this dish so much!! I love it also but have had it so many times my adoration has diminished a bit! I just sent my husband this video. Probably a bad idea for I bet we now have it at home as well as at Commis!
+Kurodo Kawamura you say it's cheap, but how do you know that? Sure, the dates you buy may be cheap but a chef of this caliper is buying the highest quality possible. It's also technique that you're paying for, the idea of the dish; the art.
I had seen in his Tidal Pool video, he mentioned the bowl (ceramic) was made specifically for Manresa and the Tidal Pool dish. Just a wild guess...good chance it was (another) custom made for him/Manresa.
this dish does require the culinary faculty and involve a plenty of techniques. after viewing this video . in all fairness , I found this dish very imaginative ,though , it is unnecessary complicated . in my cooking philosophy is the simplicity with a great personality of the food you enjoy to eat ,.

i was so blown away when i signed up for this meal! it was like a show!

Really love this scene, its an amazing looking dish and the enormous amount of respect the two chefs have for each other is evident.
I keep coming back to these videos. I need more "David Kinch and Pals."
This dude casually makes one of the most insane dishes i've ever seen....
For real
Made this today. Was gorgeous, so elegant and good. The butter onion reduction was absolutely decadent - could eat alone! Wow your guests with this one.
i want to try and make this and am wondering how long to poach the egg to have the yolk intact and also be able to remove the whites, ty!

@@Cuchulainn1984 thanks I'll give that a try
I'm curious as to how you cooked your egg too! Please share!!

This is such a stupidly amazing dish
I love this. The dialogue between Chef and the chef, sigh. TEARS.
+StophersRAWR I love that in all the episodes... it's not about competition, it's all about respect and appreciation of each others artistry.
That is right. Too much uncommon these days...

Thats fucking beautiful and a perfect idea.
Was thinking the exact same thing.
I’m so excited! I’m literally at Commis about to have this dish!!!
the people that downvote this are the same people that takes the time to yelp review a mcdonalds.
MIKEAL PARK and for dishes like those on chefs table, they'll say "it's so small why is it so expensive!?"

@@danielarroyave421 LOL
Love that perfect re-forged egg!
Stunning!
Love everything about that dish. Time to go shopping.
My husband just loves this dish so much!! I love it also but have had it so many times my adoration has diminished a bit! I just sent my husband this video. Probably a bad idea for I bet we now have it at home as well as at Commis!
My favorite dish ever
This dish brought me to tears, so good
this dish was so god damn beautiful!
I am blown away!
Made this a few times based off figuring out the video, stunning dish. Never ceases to impress!
The most creative and interesting thing I’ve ever tasted. Really want to try to recreate this
Mind blowing!
Oh it’s so lovely.
BEAUTY
Where's the heart button TH-cam?
so clever and fun. but still quite elegant and techinal. it's the answer to the universe and my appetite
SO beautiful!!
this is so cooooooool
I searched for poached egg yolks and found this. I'm not disappointed. I really want to discard the white and just poach the yolk.
Genius
perfect
I don't even like poached eggs, but this looks amazing.
please, those who downvote ....explain yourselves... please i only see perfection and beauty
+Howard Lee 100$ recipe. i didnt vote tho!
Everything used in this is cheap. dates, egg, onion, butter, more butter, granola, chive.
+Kurodo Kawamura you say it's cheap, but how do you know that? Sure, the dates you buy may be cheap but a chef of this caliper is buying the highest quality possible. It's also technique that you're paying for, the idea of the dish; the art.
What's wrong cooking with cheap ingredients? don't be a fool man
so? whats your point?
ITS beautifull
Magic number of chives = 49
great combination of flavors. Maybe these guys should try mixing beetroot and custard.
Wow, beautiful. Must be pretty good too!
what kind of paper does he use to cover the onions?
parchment
its a called a cartoush in french
Baking paper
My conventional understanding of flavor tells me this tastes terrible. But it must be on the menu for a reason
Dope
What vinegar is used with the dates? The oats are cooked in butter? Thanks!
flying frenchman malt vinegar
he did use red wine vinegar and a bit of plain water to reduce the vinegar acidity . it is called, balancing the flavour of the dish .
It was smoked vinegar
Saute the oats in butter on medium/low heat with a heavy dose of brown sugar.
David Kinch uses a ceramic jar does anyone know where to buy this one, or one with the same design!?
I had seen in his Tidal Pool video, he mentioned the bowl (ceramic) was made specifically for Manresa and the Tidal Pool dish. Just a wild guess...good chance it was (another) custom made for him/Manresa.
who was so offended by this video to actually downvote?
The great thing about this dish is that there is no ingredient that is expensive.
Simple ingredients elevated by technique. Everybody can make posh food with caviar, truffles, foie gras etc. This is beautiful
Is the onion soup served Cold or Hot?
warm to hot
So beautiful
this is food porn, and i am a colossal pervert.
You can not smell sweetness chef Kinch. You should know

Eggs and DATES?!?!.... I'm already dry heaving....
David duchovny can cook
Student become teacher
Taste the fucking thing then!
Those are NOT DATES, those are Medjools..
Mind fucked...
Procrastination with cooking.
