- Join Carla Music in the Bon Appétit Test Kitchen as she makes a soufflé-style omelet. Your arm may get tired during all of the whisking, but make sure the egg white peaks are firm enough to stand up on their own while still having a nice shine to them!

ABOUT BON APPÉTIT
Bon Appétit is a highly opinionated food brand that wants everyone to love cooking and eating as much as we do. We believe in seasonal produce, properly salted pasta water, and developing recipes that anyone can make at home.
I love how everyone at the Test Kitchen goes to the effort to simply explain the science behind what's happening. It actually really makes a lot of cooking seem less daunting knowing what kinds of things are going on. Of course couple with charming metaphors and descriptors.
It's perfect for me because I learn better when I understand why. I never mess up a process or cut corners once I get why it needs to be done that way!
Yeah, you know, when you crush garlic it's like a 2 part epoxy. And then it releases all that allicin
Beviedev, What does daunting mean?
john alt scary
That's because they are actual food scientists vs just being cooks or chefs. These people are some of the best in their field.
Carla could literally boil water and make toast and I’ll still watch. She’s seriously a gem.
Layna agree
She’s awful. I hope she gets fired
agreed! i love her!
Her smile is so wonderful! It makes me happy
Liv Lenon you are right. Good satire. She has an ugly face and an uglier personality.
Carla on whether to do cheese: "You don't have to love yourself."
it's better with cheddar!
Came here to post this same quote
Reverse psychology from Carla: ALWAYS DO THE CHEESE. ALWAYS LOVE YOURSELF.
@@LiqnLag Omg YES! I love Cheddar
But I'm allergic 😭😭😭
I really like having more chat with the camera crew. I think it adds something nice to the videos
except Vinny, screw that guy.
angel102ify Vincenzo! The best!
angel102ify ;n; I miss Vinny
They often do to remind or clarify stuff but they cut it out so only the host replies
"They get to go do their own thing, and then they come back and everybody's greater for it" I'm here for Carla dispensing life lessons while making delicious omelet soufflé.
Same
I didn't expect to tear up while watching her separate an egg, but here we are
"you don't have to do the cheese, but ya know...you don't have to love yourself"
I CRACKED UP SO BAD 😂😂😂😂
BA I want to buy this on a mug.
I want this on a shirt, with an illustration of egg soufflé
best advice EVER! jajajaja
I died omg this is the best comment ever.
The people working for this company are so EXCELLENT. Literally all of them are so wonderful and fun to watch. Carla, I effing love you
A) Digging the bangs (that’s “fringe” for our friends across the pond).
B) The most Italian thing I’ve heard in weeks? “I have to stop whisking, because I have to explain this with both hands!”
Anyone who knows the Ultimate Warrior knows fringe
Carla, that was me and my friends that you seen in the Def Leppard gear. We went to The Today Show and were on our way back to Brooklyn for the ceremony that night!
i knew exactly what she meant by the dairy queen peak...
And what she meant?
I did too and I've never been to one of the locations.
me too
Same
Blizzard
"I'm not crazy, Tommy where'd you grow up"
😂😂😂
“it’s not peaking, just flopping”
ah yes, the title of my autobiography
😂😂😂
Do you ever just feel happy from seeing Carla happy?
nah, but I'm glad someone's happy
Watching Carla cook is like watching a close family member cook she's so cool.
i literally love the language that carla uses. it's so cute/funky
It's funny because it's almosot the same as Brad's
Carla is a goddamn delight!
Garth AllTheDogs her curls make me weak at the knees 😊
Vicariousleigh yeah I hope she gets fired too
@@gregoryplanks8336 this is the second time I've seen you reply to a comment about how much you hate her. Did Carla murder your family or something?
Hey BA!
Long time listener first time caller here. Love everything that y’all do and I wanted to suggest an idea for a new show....BA staff cooking in their own kitchens (or just realistic small kitchens).
It would be great to see how they flow through recipes with limited space (setting up muse en place, pantry organization, non-industrial grade kitchen appliances).
Just a thought.
Again, love what y’all do and keep it up!
Pretty sure there’s already a video of Carla cooking in her kitchen.
"Hi this is Andy, here today in the a Bon Appetit GUEST Kitchen."
Let's be honest most of them probably have industrial grade everything except ovens in their houses
Mise en place
Muse en place
Carla is my 2nd favorite BA chef, after Claire, of course. I love her weird anecdotes. And sge really explains the technique of cooking. You can tell she's an old school chef who learned from the best.
With all respect for the famous chefs in the world but Carla is my favorite she is the best cook and teacher I've learned cooking alot of dishes that I thought I would not do it anytime in my life ..Her approach is very easy that my brain absorbed it so quickly like a sponge ❤️❤️
Best thing I've heard in my entire life is Carla saying "oogy" and "woogly".
As someone who worked at Dairy Queen (even if it was 15 years ago), I can confirm that the Dairy Queen peak/swirl is definitely a thing and we were forced to do it on every single cone or we got in trouble lol.
I feel like Carla is my eccentric Aunt that teaches me all the things my mom didn't teach me about cooking.
Love how I was confused on the rock and roll music at the beginning but it came full circle & I’m thankful for it now.
I didn't know who Def leopard were, but I was happy for Carla that she had a nice memory on the train
Instructions unclear. If you don't have a quick anecdote about Def Leppard to tell, how do you get the whites to soft peaks?
I tried the recipe, it was delicious, although I didn't have any cheese so I swapped in some pesto that I diluted with some olive oil. Great texture with the light eggs.
That sounds great as well! I like your riff
Ohhhh that's a great idea! I'm in exactly the same boat- no cheese, but tons of pesto. I'll give this a shot tonight!
Thanks you for justifying the way I separate eggs! I've always found I can get a more perfect separation, faster and more reliably, by using my hands. I also run a thumb around the inside of the shell to get that last bit of white! People are so afraid that egg yolks will burst like a bubble as soon as they touch them... But I manhandle my yolks and pull off the last thickest bit of white detached and they're always fine.
I like the way she explained it with the bubble bath
Carla is soo wholesome
My grandmother used to separate eggs the same way Carla does. I feel validated.
I thought everyone did it that way...
All grandmas do. The hands are the best tools in the kitchen.
Jean Nate *and* Def Leppard. You rock on, my 80's sistah! Rock on. (And that was a lovely omelet souffle too)
I made this for my mother the morning of her birthday and she has not had eggs any other way since. She talked about it to everyone who would listen and even watched me make it again to learn how! It made her so happy and I'm so grateful to have found this for her. Thank you!
But I want an eggroll video.
you will get your eggroll video WHEN YOU FIX THIS DAMN DOOR!
@chris same, fam
Nichole scott whut
I love this video because not only does she make and show her mistakes, but she also explains what the mistakes were and how to recover from them.
I see your Jean Nate, Carla. You are my FAVORITE BA'er and moments like that solidify that love, lol.
Mad props on your egg separation method. You made me feel better about my technique.
And yes, that is a Dairy Queen peak.
The "Jean Nate" reference cracked me up. Yes. I'm over 50...lol
I laughed too. And I am definitely not 50 yet.
LOL! I remember those commercials! ❤️
Of all people at BA, I wholly expected Carla to call this a Souffelet.
You have a cute profile pic but I thought your name was Lil Cognac at first! Now I want a stiff French Connection!
Kethertomalkuth Orchard wtf
Loved the tutorial :)
This is going be my breakfast for tomorrow 💃
I love Carla, any time there is a video with her I click immediately. I got the Jean Nate reference, my grandma bought me a huge bottle of it for some holiday when I was a young child in the 80's... This looks so yummy! I make a version of a soufle omelette with lemon and blueberries, I start mine on the stove and then finish in the oven so it sets top and bottom (I hate soft egg)... will definitely be trying this version!
Just made this, best omelette I've ever had. Definitely would have again.
I taught my summer camp kids how to make egg soufflés from this video. We had such a blast whipping then egg whites and cooking them. Middle school kids were really appreciative. Thanks Bon appetite
I love these. I don’t make them often enough! Breakfast tomorrow is sorted, many thanks for the reminder.
This helped me a lot actually whisking the whites till peaky helped improve the consistency of the omelet. I used to put the eggs on my mixer but it wouldn't peak probably overmixed. Resulting in a flater batter by the time I brought everything together, making it more omelet and not too much souffle. With this recipe I managed to get that ratio and have great omelet souffle. Thanks alot!
Love the Jean Naté mention, the Def Leppard anecdote and this insane floofy omelet. Carla is my favorite!
I am going to try this. She is so tough New York, I mean that in a good way this time.
that looks so good omg Carla is an icon😭💘
Carla ages and looks better with each day! Her talent as a Chef are Superior to all!!
“You don’t have to do the cheese, but you don’t have to love yourself” 😂🤣
Now I am going to add "oogy" to my culinary terminology!! Love it!!
I'll admit it. I laughed at the Jean Naté comment. 😂
It's hysterical because I legitimately just got out of a bath using Jean Naté (thanks mom, for that stocking stuffer😂).
I knew exactly what she was talking about. I didn’t know how to spell it to make the comment though.
I knew 😏
The editors usually add explanations.... but I like that they left that easter egg untouched. It's like she said--those who get it, will get it.
Very good!! I whipped the whites really well and the omelette was so fluffy!! Thanks for the detailed instructions
she is such an amazing teacher!
I love watching her hands. Watching Carla is like watching my aunt cook, when she was younger. My father’s family are full blooded Sicilians, if the hands aren’t moving, something isn’t right.
I like how she says "it's more hygenic to separate the eggs with your hands" as she is doing so with rings on her fingers. And then the next shot, the rings are magically gone.
"You don't have to love yourself" i loved that.
"You dont have to do the cheese but, you know, you dont have to love yourself"
We will add cheese, we love you Carla
GoPostal as someone whose favorite food is cheese , I loved this line lol.
“Oh baby cakes.” I love her haha
I have never seen a carla video before this, but this is great
Dude... Carla videos.. watch them.
You gotta love Carla, she's such a delight! One of my favourites from the BA kitchen. Our cinnamon roll ❤️
Carla is the best, I mean, who else cooks with "rocking" fingers? Ha!
Love ya girl!
"I have to stop whisking, cuz I have to explain this with both hands" :D :D :D That's soooo Italian :)
It was like two seconds away from burning but I ain’t mad I like my omelette crispy
Carla seems to be close to burning stuff.
close?
@@BLacroSse2 Especially when you compare it to when she cooks french omelettes with the beautiful Tiffany Young she mentions any brown meant the eggs were overcooked. Wth happened here...
@@RagnarokCo She says in this video that it's okay to get it a little brown unlike a french omelette.
It also is probably trickier to cook while teaching and filming!
The comforting mother of the internet.
I've only ever separated eggs this way & always thought all the other hacks & methods are so weird.
Tried this today and it turned out amazing even though my egg foam wasn't all that great. The cheese is really the metaphorical cherry on the cake, it's so good!
Perfect DQ peak and rock fingers ! 🤟🏽
gotta love Carla, she is the best!
I play carla in the background while i'm doind something else but when she mentioned "Jean Naté" I had to look up.
I GOT THE JOKE CARLA! I GOT IT BABE! Later for them.
Carla, you are my favorite. You make everything right and then you make everything even rightier! You are the top in chefs and the chef of all tops. I heart you 4 ever.
The fact that she holds her silverware continental style has me shook
Maybe her Italian mamma taught her the continental way.
Drue Ashton
Nah, she transfers her fork to the right hand for popping in her mouth - that's American style.
I haven't had a whisk in years. Getting one this morning for the sole purpose of making this epic omelet. Thanks, Carla!!
Oh how I missed our very bubbly Carla...
Carla: Souffle omelets are easier than normal omelettes
Also Carla: proceeds to make a 10 step omelette.
Also me: now I want a french omelette.
The shell also naturally clings to the yolk making it fairly easy to actually separate the eggs with less time wasted and far less mess. The rest of the recipe is solid.
Making one right now. It's beautiful!!! 😭
Kira Greener 🤯 Stop typing! It’s burning!
"It's not peaking, it's flopping"
Perfectly describes my life
Dinner tonight!
(Also, I loved Jean Nate. Splash!)
Carla, your videos are so encouraging to me especially right now, thank you for being you. :)
That little chuckle at the end was great!
I get you, Carla. DQ, Jean Nate’, “Calgon, take me away!”
Melissa Quinn 😹
"In a Jean Nate` kinda way" 😂 Live her euphemisms.
That is a nice looking omelette and I love them so much since being introduced to them after getting into the Air Force. Once I ate one I was hooked and have been eating them since then. I thank you for showing us how to make one the correct way, Carla.
Please continue doing a great job by explaining so well. I feel like I'm taking a very nice and easy to understand class. Also, a lot of you have a great sense of humour.
Carla is the best instructor at the BA.
Rewatching before I try this for breakfast this morning!!
I feel like Carla is a weed mom
Carla is the Bob Ross of cooking. Dropping hints of wisdom, life lessons and self love talk in between artistically beating an egg to perfection 😂
I got the Jean Nate joke! I’ve been searching for the powder for my grandmom and can’t find it anywhere! 😂
Looks like it's discontinued by the manufacturer! Rite Aid still sells the splash/mist though. (Used to sell the powder too).
Carla is very detailed and visual with her teaching, I feel like I actually learned how to make an egg soufflé today!
everytime i see carla my voice in my head screams *CARLA FETTUCCINE*
Made this tonight! Super easy dinner: and a great way to stretch eggs when you’re cooking on a budget. Three eggs felt like five, and everyone was in awe of these giant, fluffy, wiggly, delicious omleettes. We made one with crushed bacon, one with your classic Denver filling, and one with chives, goat cheese, and arugula. Absolutely stunning, and quick and easy to boot.
I just made this and was gonna take a picture of it but it was just so delicious I ate it all before I could 😂😂
Ahahaha... I have an album full of food porn pics, after I've taken a few bites, or really the leftovers going into tupperware
I gobbled mine up too! I usually have a hard time finishing 3 eggs. Not this time!
Love that Carla always recommends doing everything with her hands.
Shokugeki no Souma gang?
Yo ^^
She also did it slightly wrong. It's supposed to be covered so the edges puff up more.
Reporting in! (Though I have loved BA before watching Shokugeki no Soma)
“You don’t have to do the cheese... but you know... you don’t have to love yourself.” 🤣🤣
Okay quick question... am I the only one who watches these videos twice? Once to watch the main point of the video, and then again to watch the background to see what others are doing (and start constructing fan theories about what's going on amongst those blurry characters back there)...?
Same ☺
My mother made this omelette and used ground ham for the filling. Delicious!
I’m simple, i see Carla and click
She didn't need to stop whisking to explain whipping of the egg whites. Her hands added nothing but demonstrating her being an Italian lol
Im gonna make this for my bf for Easter morning!🍳🐰🐣
cassandra sotos aww cute! Hope it turns out well!
I love Carla! I will definitely be trying this in the future. Cheddar makes it better
I’m getting some serious food wars vibe from this
Only if she flipped 500 million pans at once
Very well explained, I tried this recipe following another channel and I wasn’t satisfied.... First off, I wanted a somewhat healthy omelette and the directions were to add 1 Tbs. of sugar to the egg whites while whisking... Thank you, I will try again.....
