So maybe this episode is a bit like Ferrero Rocher, in which Claire gourmetized an already gourmet treat. But what is wrong gourmetizing that which is already gourmet? Nothing, we say! Join Claire Saffitz in the Bon Appétit Test Kitchen as she attempts to make gourmet Ben & Jerry's ice cream.

Cheesemaker Rynn Caputo, founder of Caputo Brothers Creamery, demonstrates how to make fresh and aged stretched cheeses in your own kitchen. Stretched (or "pasta filata") cheeses all begin with a curd - heating, stretching, and augmenting it to produce different consistencies, textures, and flavors. If you've ever wanted to try your hand at homemade cheese, Rynn will get you on your way in no time.
Ok, so Ferrero Rocher chocolates are pretty gourmet already. We get it. But couldn't they be even more gourmet? Join Claire Saffitz in the Bon Appétit Test Kitchen as she attempts to make a gourmet-ier version of Ferrero Rocher, everybody's favorite Italian, hazelnut-filled chocolates.

In this episode, the kids try 100 years of cheese. Velveeta cheese fudge and peanut butter pickle sandwich dominated the 1920s. The 1930s brought the cream cheese and chopped olive sandwich. Wartime cheese pudding premiered in the '40s. Easy cheese spray (aka cheez whiz) arrived in the '50s. The horseradish cheese ball rolled into the '60s. Fondue debuted in the '70s. Quiche lorraine conquered the '80s. Hot Pockets heated up the '90s. Recently, Raclette cheese and vegan cheese trended.

Today, Bon Appétit joins Chef Kelly Mencin, owner of NYC’s Radio Bakery, to make focaccia. Radio Bakery is one of New York’s hottest bakeries and was named one of the best in America by The New York Times.
When it comes to New York City delis, it's hard to top Brooklyn's Frankel's Deli. Their cream cheeses are perfectly tangy and creamy, their bagels have ideal density and their whitefish, simply put, is a revelation. This place is so good, in fact, that we sent our very own Alex Delany to try one of everything on this menu. And we didn't send him alone. This time he's joined by Frankel's frequenter Molly Baz.

Nougat. Caramel. Peanuts. Chocolate. The building blocks of a Snickers bar. Each taken alone is simple enough (well maybe not the nougat), but together they become a different monster. Join Claire Saffitz as she attempts to make a gourmet version of a Snickers bar!

Brad Leone and Chris Morocco are back for another episode of Gourmet Makes. This time, these two guys who have always hosted and always will host Gourmet Makes are attempting to make a gourmet version of Andes Crème De Menthe. Strangely, one of our editors had the idea that Claire Saffitz had always been the host of Gourmet Makes though they couldn't point to a single episode that Claire had hosted. As we all know, Chris and Brad ARE Gourmet Makes.
Filmed on 2/24/20.
Twizzlers come in just about every flavor under the sun, but Claire only has one goal in mind: make a gourmet version of everyone's favorite. That's right -- the original, cherry-ish flavored Twizzler.
