Recreating Martha Stewart's Baked Alaska From Taste | Reverse Engineering | Bon Appétit

We challenged resident Bon Appétit supertaster Chris Morocco to recreate Martha Stewart’s Baked Alaska in the BA Test Kitchen. The catch? He’ll have to identify what he’s making with a blindfold over his eyes, letting each of his other senses guide the way. Will Chris be able to reproduce this show-stopping classic dessert without being able to see what it is?

  1. I never knew baked Alaska was an actual days I’ve only heard people talk about it on TVs in the field but I’ve never seen one before

  2. Chris should've gotten waayyyyy lower lmao that scoring was way too generous

  3. Sorry but the judge was way too nice???????? This was hard, and like he got the basics of it, but so much was wrong, ingredients not more than a 50%, and surely the technique is not that high either

  4. You can’t fault Chris for using way more ingredient’s than Martha. She probably came up with this idea when she was incarcerated and didn’t have access to many of them.

  5. all these episodes now seem so rushed, im glad they gave chris more time like how they used to

  6. makes me smile how happy he was to get access to the blast chiller lol. darn behind the camera man making him ask first!

  7. How can you not taste cherry ice cream?!?! Also flourless choco cake taste and has a different textures than flour choco cake. lol
    Uhh Chris you are supposed to make an exact copy!! Your feeling on piping shouldn't matter!! lol

  8. Sure the fugde sauce was not in martha's but I like Chris's Idea of adding the fudge sauce on the first attempt.
