Andy: "There's already sugar in there, but I'm going to add 1/3 cup packed dark brown sugar" Also Andy: "It's almost too sweet....I prefer things to be just sweet enough"
yeah, i was going to say. why.... did you add the sugar. isn't brownie mix known to be a little too sweet if anything? i think maybe just a teaspoon of molasses would have been better if he was looking for more of that brown sugar, deep/bitter taste.
Instead of brown sugar, add a Tbs molasses for the flavor with less sweeteness. Then some coffee. I mean, the bananas add sweetness too, you need to dial back the sugar not amp it up. I don't think he tested before making his video. Also mad at the thought of throwing away the brownie mix. You could always donate or bake for a neighbor.
The fact that Conde Nast RATHER just let them quit and hire more POC for less money, instead of just PAYING THEM A FAIR WAGE speaks volumes. The fact that you even rather just ruin your reputation like this, let half of your video staff quit, and stop the channel altogether says so much. You want to profit off of POCs cultures and people, but not pay them back fairly? Crazy.
You are misinformed, everyone has gotten a paycheck. Everyone has gotten their salary, the problem here is that people of color did not get paid for being on camera. Everyone NOW has been offered a contract, and they decided if they wanted to stay with the company and receive money for being on camera with their contract. Some refused their contract and decide to move on and stay with the company, while others decided to leave the company altogether. If they decide to post videos on their channel they're going to do it anyway, you're not giving them any ideas. Sorry you're so pissed off about nothing. You are just a fan, you should try to relax.
@@givememore4free I think maybe you are taking my comment too seriously and I hope you're not going around the comments section trying to start something with everyone. I know exactly what happened, so I'm not sure why you're assuming I dont. They weren't getting paid fairly for on camera appearances, they got offered a contract that STILL wasn't fair. You can check their personal IG for that information regarding the contract. Thats why they decided to leave BA video (not not BA entirely). I no where said that they weren't getting paid at all. The fact that Conde Nast still offered a bad contract instead of a fair one is still wrong. I'm allowed to be upset as a fan, idk what "ideas" I'm giving them? Unless you're reading way too deep into my comment. Fans are allowed to be upset, without fans BA/conde nast do not have money to do any of this in general.

I feel Christina never gets as much love letter compared to others. I, however, have a crush on her and can watch her cool and soft commanding face any time of the day.
"Originally I tried to turn the brownies into licorice" Sohla is just on a whole other level. A mad woman, we stan. EDIT - PAY SOHLA AND ALL THE POC AT BA
She's super creative! They had her do the experimental version of pasta carbonara in the "Chefs make carbonara three ways". She made a dessert with a pasta & guanciale funnel cakes, egg yolk parmesan ice cream and black pepper foam.
sohla needs a show where at the beginning of every show she spins 2 wheels of different foods and she has to turn the ingredients for the first food into the second food. like she would spin a wheel and have to turn the all the ingredients in carrot cake into like a soufflé (very mild example) and make it taste good. she can use as much or as little as she wants of every ingredient and can add any other ingredients that she needs
Really sad that BA never posted about recent events, but just left it at this vid to die. Very bad manners, unethical and incredibly disrespectful to the former employees
I miss them so much :( Thankfully, Babish is starting off Babish Culinary Universe with Sohla so far and I hope more of em will appear in later videos.

It's so disappointing how well this channel and brand was doing and how much I absolutely loved every single person on here. If only Rapo would have been fired and everyone would be paid fairly, then this channel possibly could have survived. It's never going to be the same again, and that breaks my heart.
Did you Google that induction cooktop she's using ? It's a computer-controlled mad scientist piece of machinery. I bet she tempers chocolate in single-degree temperature experiments just for fun.
@@allgirlreview433 Yeah, I couldn't understand that edge comment... who likes edges? It's the worst thing about brownies. Hers looked incredible though!
Isn't that the point of being a test kitchen chef? Also I think one reason why Sohla hasn't gotten her own show is because everyone wants her help on theirs.
I just came back to the channel after it crossed my mind thay I haven’t had a recommendation in a long time. I saw the last vid was 3 months ago. Immediately saw the comments on this most recent video. I was SUPER confused. Then watched a few TH-cam videos on the story... and wow I missed a lot. I deleted all my social media apps. This is all news to me.
I found out about BA and Refinery29 having problems with POC yesterday when I was reading articles on cancel culture... I wasn't reading news for months and recently started reading news again.

bein' stuck in the house with your kids all day every day is bound to make most anyone a lil* sassy. *the degree of sassy one becomes varies due to amount of children and their unruliness.
Isn't that literally what Rie does on Tasty tho? She's the only legit chef on Tasty and the only reason why I'm subscribed to them, plus she's both adorable and badass, so I recommend her vids lol
Is it ok to say that I miss Claire and Brad and Sohla and Chris and Gabby and Molly and Andy and Christina and Carla and Rick? I really want them back.
Chris was actually at Vogue as a scheduler, IIRC. He had chef'd during college, went to cooking school while at CN and transferred. Sohla had a restaurant with Ham, it went under, she was at Serious Eats for a bit. Bad experience there, came to BA. Molly had been a line cook, did some food stuff for movies, came to BA.
While I know there to be plenty of info for most of them if you look around online (several of them have Wikipedia pages for a place to start), I'd personally really love a mini-series that gives each a chance to, in turn, deep dive their own history and tell any funny stories or stories about things that shaped or changed them.
The demise of Bon Appetit was extremely disappointing. They had a wonderful diverse group of people who were great cooks and entertaining personalities. I fear that they won't be able to recreate what they once had, not for corporate owners but for the fans and the actual staff on and off screen that carefully curated such wonder shows. It would be awesome to see the entire crew break off and begin there own company, website, TH-cam channel etc and continue to create the quality entertainment and fairly treat and compensate the people behind it. I doubt this is possible and could meet or surpass the heights reached but it would be fantastic to see. I personally loved Bon Appetit, it was some of the most enjoyable feel good content I've ever seen. It had amazing hosts paired with exceptional formatting that will always hold a place in my heart...

I think she meant a chocolate confection that resembled licorice in appearance and texture. I don't see how she could do that with brownie mix.

When something looks too good to be true it usually is , I'm gona miss "its alive" the most
Let’s just pretend this is their series finale
If Sohla isn’t the Test Kitchen version of Bill Nye, who thinks of licorice when given brownie mix😂 gotta love her
That’s such a great idea. Why has it not been thought of until now?!?!
She's super creative! They had her do the experimental version of pasta carbonara in the "Chefs make carbonara three ways". She made a dessert with a pasta & guanciale funnel cakes, egg yolk parmesan ice cream and black pepper foam.

I love how the community of this channel supported the chefs and fill the commentary selection with it. Perfection
I wonder if this is the video that everyone stopped watching ba after
Chris in the Test Kitchen: Fresh, In Control, Undefeated.
Chris in his house: Not ok, tired, trying to stay in the moment.
We all need to offer to baby sit so he and his wife can have an evening out!
Us: Chris, what happened to your hippin' and hoppin', not to mention your bippin' and boppin'?
Chris: Eat a yeet, internet.
Sohla needs her own show where she takes something classic and then turns it into something entirely different. She's so creative and fun to watch.
Soo true
Between this and the carbonara episode, it's a strong agree...
she needs a show where at the beginning of every show she spins 2 wheels of different foods and she has to turn the ingredients for the first food into the second food. like she would spin a wheel and have to turn the all the ingredients in carrot cake into like a soufflé and make it taste good. she can use as much or as little as she wants of every ingredient and can add any other ingredients that she needs
@@landonyoung4850 This is brilliant. We need this.
Landon Young Genius!
The calm before the storm
It's so disappointing how well this channel and brand was doing and how much I absolutely loved every single person on here. If only Rapo would have been fired and everyone would be paid fairly, then this channel possibly could have survived. It's never going to be the same again, and that breaks my heart.
Chris “okay cool”ing his kid is everything.
The amount of sass in "hey bud we're filming" 👁👄👁
Poor Chris, I hope he's made a few quarantini's to deal with (I imagine) frequent interruptions during filming
Sohla's mind is unmatched. She needs her own show where she can just make incredibly creative recipes.
Great idea. Give her some weird ingredients and make her make something nice out of it
Did you Google that induction cooktop she's using ? It's a computer-controlled mad scientist piece of machinery.
I bet she tempers chocolate in single-degree temperature experiments just for fun.
We need more Sohla!
AcadianGiles yes! It’s literally called “the control freak” I found it hilarious 😂
@Ddhfacetyy She needs her own series! So many people have called for it
I miss OG Bon Appétit so much :(
as a regular audience, I feel like I lost my old friends and now I'm watching their old videos cuz I miss them.
Hi plzzzzzzzzzzz watch our unique golden carmalized Chocolate recipe full.,I REQUEST YOU A LOT
Chris: I’m not tryna fry something. I’m not trying to rewrite the rules.
Sohla: 👀
Chris literally did almost nothing to change it lol.
Notafan Notatall it’s always nice to see some crazy stuff like a brownie milkshake or brownie churros but also just like “idk add some peanuts butter”
and idky when he said that i already know it's gonna be sohla who's gonna fry her mix
Sohla: “I tried to turn the brownies into liquorice”
Me: Of course you did
*Really* curious to see that
I watched this video the day it come out. Never would I have thought it would be their last video 💀
none of us knew!
Just stopping by the last video to leave some flowers. RIP channel
Sohla’s thing about singing happy birthday to herself everyday is the most adorable thing
time stamp?
9:20
@@sabih44 around 9:23 i dont know how to link it lmao
Out of context it would sound so sad.
L’il Sebastian it is very Solana-esque and that’s a great thing
I would leave my whole life behind for Christina and her brownie tart
I'm definitely trying that and Sohla's churros. And I already make brownie mix the way Claire did them.
Yeah. Christina def made the recipe I’m going to try.
that recipe really impressed me for some reason😂 and the tart pan?! knocked it out of the park lol
Yep, and I don't even like edges.
@@allgirlreview433 Yeah, I couldn't understand that edge comment... who likes edges? It's the worst thing about brownies. Hers looked incredible though!
Rest in peace BA
Lol remember when this video came out at the beginning of quarantine 🥲
Why doesn't sohla have a dedicated segment of her being a food scientist and creating crazy new kinds of foods??
I think she is too valuable in her job of cross testing recipes.
Yes. Even if they’re fails I want to see the process
I need this content in my life.
we've seen a little glimpse of it in the carbonara video, but a dedicated show is definitely welcomed
Isn't that the point of being a test kitchen chef? Also I think one reason why Sohla hasn't gotten her own show is because everyone wants her help on theirs.
Carla's increasingly giddy laughter while making her brownies is just so delightful
She is my life force in the kitchen some days. I'll just stream her recipes just to hear her voice and soak up her beguiling energy. 💜
Borderline villain laugh too!
@@IzumisChild Blame Garla
I love Carla after seeing her cook in quarantine. She has become a fave. Cosmo too.
I just came back to the channel after it crossed my mind thay I haven’t had a recommendation in a long time. I saw the last vid was 3 months ago. Immediately saw the comments on this most recent video. I was SUPER confused. Then watched a few TH-cam videos on the story... and wow I missed a lot. I deleted all my social media apps. This is all news to me.
Crazy ain't it. I do really miss the shows though. What a terrible shame.
Same. So disappointed.
I found out about BA and Refinery29 having problems with POC yesterday when I was reading articles on cancel culture... I wasn't reading news for months and recently started reading news again.
Sorry you were welcomed back with a mess
You can call me any name you want. You can tar, feather, and lock me up in the town square. But this still hurts 3 years later.
“Originally I tried to turn the brownies into licorice.”
I’m sorry... you WHAT?
Thank you, I was hoping I wasn't the only one that went O.O 'scuse me??
Haha, I love when Zola is experimenting!
I want to see that so badly
I literally had to rewind a little bit to make sure my brain hadn't made that up!
@@AnamiDK Sohla
That move was a stretch, but an ambitious one.
sohla has SO many brad-type stories and is so experimental ugh i can’t wait for her to get her own show 😭
"publicly supportive but privately complicit" - the bon appetit test kitchen "stars"
And here I thought I’d seen Chris parenting Brad, but to see him in real dad mode is so cute
Can we just take a moment to appreciate Carla giggling at the brownies
That reminded me of my mom, it was adorable
She might have added weed 🤭
Christina living in 3020 with the edges for everyone idea.
anonymous????
We need Vauban-inspired loaf pans
that sounds like communist propaganda but okay
The replies to this comment are so ???
Honestly!
i miss them
Literally no vid after this gets 1mil views
Go woke go broke. Pretty much what happened.
chris making brownies early in the morning is rly a reflection of how households have changed/evolved during this quarantine
Its better to eat dessert in the morning because you burn the calories during the day rather than sleeping after wating sweets
Also they were all dressed the same as the last video. Their day must have been a long one.
Imagining Sohla as a 4 yr old baking and singing happy birthday to herself is just beyond adorable.
Really brings out her cheerful Dora the Explorer vibe, right?
She's so adorable now; she must have been incredibly cute as a 4 year old
When she said that, I felt my heart warming. 🤣
The good old days
I missed them all. 😢
For anyone who misses Claire and/or Carla both of these people have their own TH-cam channels. Claire's is called Dessert Person, and for Carla's i'm not sure of the exact name so just search Carla Music and it should come up. Edit: I almost forgot. Sohla has made appearances and babish's food channel
Can we just take a moment to appreciate whoever is coming up for the ideas for this channel? We don’t deserve this and they’re working SO hard
Well this one is sponsored content, so you may not like the answer.
turtlellamacow I think he meant this episode in particular.
turtlellamacow oh ya I didn’t catch on to that
Everyone saying quarantine has ruined Chris. I'm over here digging his sass and off-the-cuff attitude.
bein' stuck in the house with your kids all day every day is bound to make most anyone a lil* sassy.
*the degree of sassy one becomes varies due to amount of children and their unruliness.
Personally, I like the sassy chris.
🙌
I miss BA so much. I want justice, I want equality, I want my favorite chefs back while knowing their being paid fairly
I no longer feel bad for watching your videos with ad block
y e s
Claire’s “splash of vanilla extract” is her “two shots of vodka” lmfao
And thats Molly's "A dash of salt"
When Sohla finally gets a show, it should be Zhüj, a series about experimentally fancifying prepared mixes.
omg, i never knew i needed something like that in my life before i read your comment. You are a genius.this idea is amazing and you deserve a medal.
Yes!! BA make this happen!!
Isn't that literally what Rie does on Tasty tho? She's the only legit chef on Tasty and the only reason why I'm subscribed to them, plus she's both adorable and badass, so I recommend her vids lol
Yes pleeease
@@lianifire make it fancy...XD love her so much
I used to look forward to these... sad that there won’t be anymore 😕
Is it ok to say that I miss Claire and Brad and Sohla and Chris and Gabby and Molly and Andy and Christina and Carla and Rick? I really want them back.
gretchen ortner Rick, Sohla, Priya, Molly, Gabby and Carla have all quit after the whole racial discrimination thing
I hope when thing in the test kitchens go back to “normal” we can have more content with the whole game like this. Love it!
Same!
Yes!
Same! I ‘m surprised how much I prefer all of the more informal, relaxed quarantine programming.
Chile....
Lol, this didn’t age well😬. 4 months and the BA Test Kitchen is yet to post based on the awful conditions. Esp to poc.
can I please be a kid in Carla’s house that seems like such a good time
Claire has a new channel! everyone we need to start follow her!
What's the name of the channel?
@@steffijo4618 Desert person is the name of the channel.
@@781tunafish Thx
The last good episode BA posted
Claire: dont tell mum but... this doesnt even need to be washed
Quarantine mOOD right there.
Washes it anyway...
She suddenly at her mom's, I got worried about the cats.
Video idea: I'd love to know what everyone did before BA and how they ended up there 😁 maybe while cooking their fav/most meaningful dish?
This is an underrated comment.
Chris was actually at Vogue as a scheduler, IIRC. He had chef'd during college, went to cooking school while at CN and transferred.
Sohla had a restaurant with Ham, it went under, she was at Serious Eats for a bit. Bad experience there, came to BA.
Molly had been a line cook, did some food stuff for movies, came to BA.
Im pretty sure there was some small talk about what some of them did in the chefs react video. I do think a full video would be cool though
Def this. Career history. Highs and lows. Spill the beans.
While I know there to be plenty of info for most of them if you look around online (several of them have Wikipedia pages for a place to start), I'd personally really love a mini-series that gives each a chance to, in turn, deep dive their own history and tell any funny stories or stories about things that shaped or changed them.
The demise of Bon Appetit was extremely disappointing. They had a wonderful diverse group of people who were great cooks and entertaining personalities. I fear that they won't be able to recreate what they once had, not for corporate owners but for the fans and the actual staff on and off screen that carefully curated such wonder shows. It would be awesome to see the entire crew break off and begin there own company, website, TH-cam channel etc and continue to create the quality entertainment and fairly treat and compensate the people behind it. I doubt this is possible and could meet or surpass the heights reached but it would be fantastic to see. I personally loved Bon Appetit, it was some of the most enjoyable feel good content I've ever seen. It had amazing hosts paired with exceptional formatting that will always hold a place in my heart...
The fact that he’s a “hey buddy” dad just warms my soul.
