Join Carla Lalli Music in the Bon Appétit Test Kitchen as she makes the perfect pot of beans. After enjoying some of the best ones she'd ever had at Marlow & Sons in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, Carla reached out to chef Patch Troffer to learn just what kind of magic he was conjuring. Armed with her new legume knowledge, Carla is eager to share.
Join Carla Lalli Music, Alex Delany, Sohla El-Waylly, Amiel Stanek, Priya Krishna, Molly Baz, Chris Morocco, Rick Martinez, Brad Leone and Claire Saffitz for another episode of Test Kitchen Talks. In this episode, our beloved pro chefs make their favorite sandwiches.

Join Carla Music in the Bon Appétit Test Kitchen as she makes BA's best banana bread. Here at BA everybody has their favorite banana bread recipe. We made every one—14 to be exact—until we came up with a collective favorite. Dark brown sugar is key and a dollop of mascarpone makes for superior tenderness. Walnuts optional but encouraged.
Get your hacksaws ready (but not actually -- leave it to the pros), because we challenged Molly Baz to master whole animal butchery. In this episode, she was under the tutelage of her dear friend Lena Diaz, a butcher at the Greene Grape, who showed her the ins and outs (literally) of a pig, from the Boston Butt to the leaf lard.
Filmed on 2/12 and 3/3/20.

Join Claire Saffitz, Brad Leone, Chris Morocco, Sohla El-Waylly, Carla Lalli Music, Priya Krishna, Molly Baz, and Amiel Stanek at home as they make eight riffs on the perennial favorite.
Bon Appétit Test Kitchen Manager Brad Leone is back for Episode 26 of "It's Alive," and this time he's tackling the fermentation classic: sourdough bread. Brad is joined by Bon Appétit's own Claire Saffitz, Senior Food Editor and baker extraordinaire to guide him on this journey.
At a whole animal butcher shop, many lesser-known but wonderful cuts of steak are waiting for you beyond the New York Strips and Ribeyes of the world. Lena Díaz, Head Butcher at Greene Grape Provisions, breaks down how to cut 7 such secret steaks from a side of steer, cluing you in on cuts that offer more bang for the buck and favorites commonly found in other parts of the world that are likely new to you.
Expensive ham doesn't get more expensive than genuine Iberico ham. A leg of Iberico ham can cost as much as $1,500 a pop, is aged for three years and is the product of exclusively acorn-fed pigs. Carving Iberico ham is truly an art form and we challenged Molly Baz to learn how to do it, with the help of Jaume Guerra from Despaña (@despananyc).
One dish. Two days. We challenged super taster Chris Morocco to blindly taste a dish made by Carla and then reverse engineer it as closely to the original as he can. The challenge this episode: Gordon Ramsay's Beef Wellington.
P.S. We really just wanted to see Chris wear that sloth blindfold. Very worth it.

Join Rawlston Williams in his home kitchen as he makes stewed chicken and breadfruit. This stewed chicken recipe ideally uses a yardbird (a free-range chicken) marinated in a mixture of spices, including ginger, bay leaves, culantro, broadleaf thyme, gochujang and more. Rawlston prepares the breadfruit three ways; roasted, steamed and fried. You really can't go wrong with any of these methods.
Join Carla Music in the Bon Appétit Test Kitchen as she makes pork shoulder steaks. The centerpiece of Korean barbecue is the meat, but it doesn't have to be steak. Keep an eye on the edge of the meat where it touches the grill: When it’s browned, turn the pork over.
