- Professional chef Alan Delgado and home cook Daniel are swapping enchiladas recipes and hitting the kitchen! We set Daniel up with the finest ingredients from chef Alan’s kitchen along with his recipe for $120 enchiladas. Meanwhile over with our pro chef, Alan was taking Daniel's simpler ingredients to unexpected heights. Which enchiladas are you picking?

I desperately want to see a pro v. pro where they take the other’s ingredients and do it up in their own way. I want to see how each chef would make a certain meal, and then I want them to switch ingredients and be left to do whatever they would like.
i second this!
Yesss, that would be awesome!!!
So chopped
Commenting so they see this!!!
I totally agree
Chef Alan's sense of humor was the seasoning on this delicious episode
This is a great meeting of two fun personalities. Daniel is extra and Alan is super chill. 10/10 would watch a food road trip show
More recipes with Chef Allan please! This was a fun watch
I learned a lot fr
Daniel is my fave home cook, Alan is chill af too.
@@internetRecRoom Exactly, Alan.
I always wonder are they really just home cooks in these videos? They have to be some type of chef maybe not pro but they know a lot for just cooking at hom
What I like about these videos is that both of the recipes are inspirational; it shows home cooks that they can cook at a higher level (and gives them the ingredients and techniques with which to do so), and it also shows home cooks how much better food can be even with the basic ingredients. This show alone is way better than everything on Food Network these days.
I would love an episode with all the home cooks giving updates on if they've incorporated any components of the expensive meals into their normal schedules. Like Daniel in this case, I wonder if he'll make this guacamole "that slaps" in his day-to-day life.
Look, I know I'm adding that hack with the cooling tray into my guac prep
I bet most people watching this added Sauls cheese trick
I’m so proud of Daniel that he didn’t call Rose today I feel like he’s grown a lot. :) love this duo!!
Nobody seems to be calling Rose anymore, I guess somethings up
@@un_belli_vable5506 really it's been months since i last saw epicurious's videos
@@un_belli_vable5506 Rose is still in the 4 levels videos, maybe they just decided to not have Rose on pro chef vs homecook anymore
Well, makes more sense that the chef himself explains his dish, than a 3rd party
I think they may be phasing out calls to Rose, the last few chef vs novice videos didn't have it either
Yall I love this collab,Daniel is so sweet and Alan is super chill,like yes epicurious
Epicurious is THE ONLY show I’ll watch that’s past the 15 min mark!! Fun to watch, they encourage each other while learning new things and also experimenting with the old. Great education!! Keep it up!! Love you Daniel, your awesome!!

"A little bit of sour cream"
*proceeds to add half the container*
He has my respect
Chef Alan's sense of humor was cute! Lol kinda crushing on him.
Alan is a great addition to the lineup! Always love Daniel!
Daniel makes me smile. I love his energy and attitude about food.
I swear to goodness I saw Daniel in an egg commercial the other day and was worried we'd never see him again
SAME and none of the egglands best commercials since, I thought maybe I dreamt it until reading this comment 😂
I had the stuff on hand to make Chef Alan’s enchiladas and my goodness they were freaking amazing! Going to make them with this bean sauce from now on
That's awesome! I want to try that cilantro crema!
Im expecting Chef Saul for this kind of episode but Chef Alan is so cool 😎
Chef Alan is like Chef Saul's super chill son with all the talent lol
I don't know why I hollered when Daniel said "I'm going to pick the cilantro leaves that looks the cutest". Hahah
Daniel is the most professional home cook I’ve ever seen!😂
This was a great duo to watch please bring more of chef Alan. Love the growth in Daniel
Okay but Daniel and Alan's chemistry tho 👀🥵 >>>>>>
What chemistry? They cooked at different times, and they only talked to each other at the very end and all of that was edited.
@@cwg73160 And in that short amount of time, it seemed like they had great energies
@@Nini_bats Having good energy and good chemistry are two different things.
@@cwg73160 Good energy together, what is so wrong with them having a good on-camera chemistry? Even if it was a short time? That's how auditions for shows work, too.
@@Nini_bats This isn’t an audition. This is an edited TH-cam video. Context matters.
I'm totally going to make Chef Alan's version. ALL IN!
I love ALL of these videos, but I just adore Daniel. He seems like he's such a sweetheart.
Glad to see Daniel so upfront about his babiness with heat... 🤣
Alan and Daniel, just two naturally crackheads cooking. LOVE they got paired, need more of them
Like the chemistry between these two.
Omg the avocado resting rack trick. Absolutely genius 🤩👏👏
That will change my life!
Both of their versions look just *chef’s kiss*
Dude Alan's looks like glorified diarrhea wrapped in a tortilla with some greasy cheese on top, and you can tell that he knows it looks bad, but he's gotta put on the smile and the wow factor for the show.
I love how Daniel handled that. He's so excited and it warms my heart so much
We need more of this duo! I love Daniel, and chef Alan was the icing on the cake. Love it!
This combo of chefs was awesome! They seemed to vibe well 😂👍
Daniel is giving off big "Junior at Wesleyan goes to Madrid for study abroad" vibes.
These two work well together :) thoroughly enjoyed this episode!
What does this even mean?
@@cwg73160 read it until you understand
@@ceeh7825 The cooks. They don’t cook at the same time so they don’t work together much less work well together.
@@ceeh7825 Do you understand?
@@cwg73160 She means they have good chemistry dummy
Enfrijoladas deserve more love and attention. Gracias, Alan 💖
Daniels Plating Technique - 10/10
All I want for Xmas is a bloopers/BTS of these kind of episodes.
Epicurious listened to the people at having them try each other dishes. Thank you!
Perfect I learn so many tricks when I watch these videos
I feel like Daniel needs to voice a teen cartoon, his voice reminds me of something from Danny phantom 😂
Both chefs were super likable. Really enjoyable episode.
This channel is the best for a foodie like me. It's a go to for nice recipes and the comparison makes you want to challenge ❗❗
They are a ton of fun to watch!
The resting rack might make it easier to get the avocado out of its shell without having to dice it up, but that’s also one more thing you’d have to wash.
Hell yeah .. so great that he sees “ Wit a little love and attention “ that’s what makes food so delicious… love .. I remember I used to cook for my nieces and every time it would be delicious.. even when it didn’t look too good while I was making it .. I’m the end it’d be delicious 😋 😂
4:58 oooo that golden brown 😍
Go Daniel!!!! After sooo long ... Yaaaay 😀😀😀😀
0:33 I applaud the confidence.👏👏👏
It's good to see Daniel 🥺😍
Can we get something Holiday themed for this show, please?
Omg keep bringing back Daniel I’m so in loveeeee
lol the non-verbal nods of approval @16:50 😆
Chef Alan is baaack! 🎉
Omg Daniel trying to fold the first tortilla killed me 😂
Alan is the coolest chef on here 😭😭
Really liked both of these guys
Wow Alan is soooo awesome!!!❤
I feel like there is a more happy medium for this. Also I want to know where Daniel shops where he got all that for 16 dollars.
Depending on where you live, try local ethnic markets. Once you begin hearing different languages, you’re in the right place!
@@rickireign I had a local mexican market open recently. I'll give them a try.
I really like this duo
I love them two together
This series should be called Breaking Homecooks, the Fun Way :)
Alan salts very similarly to Frank. A lot. Love it.
4:46 "and the temperature to be at 350"
350°F: 🤠
350°C: 💀
XD
These two just met, but I could see them as best friends. Both Daniel and Alan are fun, cool, love making food, and playful. Their energy bounces so well off one another. And if I’m not mistaken, I think both are Latino. Great job, you two!
i'm definitely gonna have to try these black bean enchiladas because I don't usually like red sauce
Saul would have been a treat for Mexican dishes
Chef Alan is Mexican too and he does great Mexican food
@@Sletchman I think chef Alana’s whole thing is just unpretentious, chill and he definitely honors Mexican style home cooking, the one Daniel made looks like an enchilada potosina and that milanesa looks perfect. What he made with Daniel’s ingredients is also a classic in Mexican homes, except for that fake American cheese mix, but I mean, that’s what he got and I’m sure if I tried those would be some next level enfrijoladas
the chef's enchiladas are actually enfrijoladas, look super goood
Legend has it that Kit Carson's (the American frontiersman) last words were reported to be "Wish I had time for just one more bowl of chili". While that may be folklore, my last words will certainly be "What's I'd give for one more plate of enchiladas". Just like those $16 enchiladas Alan made.
Daniel is back! So adorable and charismatic ❤
which one is Daniel ??? one of them is really depressed he is almost crying (sorry first time seeing them at all)
@@royalhighs8465 daniel is in the green plaid shirt!
OK. Love them. More. Thanks.
Daniel is the real life Brett Hand from inside job
I've been thinking the exact same thing for so long
@@dangerfrombelow I would expect no less from a fellow dangerman
I wouldn't say Alan's ingredients were expensive. He just had more to make things from scratch and attention to detail
Man Chef Alan is making comfort food 😋😋
Haven't seen Daniel lately. He's always fun.
Love Epicurious!
Rose should cook in one of these pro vs homecook videos
Lorenzo vs Alan (laughing session)... 🤣🤣🤣
So the juice is juicy... love it! He's funny!
How to make enchiladas the most complicated way lol
Press the avocado through the resting rack? Sure, I suppose that saves a very small amount of time. Except that afterwards you have to wash the resting rack.
Oooohh my God the Enchiladas the Chef made look so good 🤤
I genuinely hope that's a joke 😂😂😂
Alan looks like he skates, definitely.
Just saw the commercial with Daniel for Egg land! Talk about shocked 🤣
The beard is looking good Dan. This was a great episode.
I always wanna see the pro use Their ingredients
Chef Delgado should open a restraunt called "and a pinch of salt". Then when he opens a seoncd location called "and a pinch of salt" "maybe two". Obviously this works best with "maybe two" nested below "and a pinch of salt".
they’re so cute together
Alan’s knuckle tattoos 🤩
Not sure what's going on with Rose... hopefully she was just on vacation or something. I like her segment, it's fun. But when Daniel didn't call Rose, I was suspicious. Then when Chef Alan made the tortillas by himself and gifted them to Daniel I knew something was up. On the whole, however, Daniel's skills are quite remarkable and I bet he could've made the tortillas himself as I am given to understand the process is fairly simple.
Please bring Alan to 4 levels
12:46 - as i am mate, as i am!!
The avocado life hack deserved a like
Bah! I read enchiladas and wanted it to be Saol, best chef
Yo Alan seems like a chiller. Would be stoked to cook with.
In the state of Mexico that I grew up, Michoacán, we never fry the filling. Instead, if they are chicken enchiladas we boil the chicken with seasonings like onion garlic, salt bay leafs and a little bit of cilantro as if we were making a soup. Then we take the chicken out shred it and used that a a filling for Chicken enchiladas. We save the broth to make mole or rice
P.s. authentic Mexican enchiladas don’t have melted cheese. We use queso ranchero or queso fresco with sour cream
What about cheese enchiladas that have no meat
@@-danny. that too that was more like spicy quesadilla lol
@@-danny. yes, we have those. We usually fill them with Queso Fresco.
Daniel is Disney prince material.
El Paso in the house!
Alan is amazing ❤️❤️
I wasn’t expecting the tortilla chips to be like fries😂
Epicurious did something to Rose. She hasn’t been on the last 3 or so of these.
I have been thinking the same
She's still on Four Levels.
i wanna see them do a quesa birra episode
