Pastry Chef Attempts to Make Gourmet Bagel Bites | Gourmet Makes | Bon Appétit
In middle school, pastry chef Claire Saffitz basically subsisted on an all-Bagel Bite diet. But will she like them as an adult or is the magic gone? As Alex Delany puts it, they’re not good, but you still want more. Join Claire in the Bon Appétit Test Kitchen as she attempts to make a gourmet version of her childhood go-to, Bagel Bites.

“I don’t feel good about that criticism and I don’t appreciate it.”
me @ feedback of any form
I can’t get over how cute brad can be when he’s trying to help out like he’s so happy to just be kneading bread
I agree! But kneading dough is the most therapeutic thing ever, too. I struggle with biscuit dough because you are only supposed to knead it until combined. Sorry, you triggered me 😂
Just Brad being his usual kneady self.
yes !! brad is adorable omg
“The icecream?”
“Melted. Don’t worry about it.”
I wonder if it was Claire’s gourmet Ben and Jerry’s that melted tho… that would be so sad! that was such a great episode!
“I will not let you sit here and slander”
I’m so glad there’s a voice of reason behind the scenes.
i really want claire to try to make jaffa cakes (it’s a uk snack – constant debates whether it’s a cake or a biscuit lol)
Had them for the first time they feel like cakes. To me biscuits are more crumbly
It gets dry if left out for a while: cake
It gets softer if left out for a while: buscuit
I love those! they actually have them in American aldi’s since they are a German brand (i think?)
Legally they’re cakes 😂
I would love to see Claire try and make gourmet slim Jim’s. They are the epitome of fake food to me and I’d love to see what Claire would have to do to make a reasonably gourmet version.
Spoilers, they’ve already filmed cadbury eggs and tots.
Claire and brad
honestly theyre not that hard to make. Definitely come out better homemade than prepackaged
Claire(in an accusatory tone): you don’t want a crusty bagel?
Also Claire: I just really like bagels
Gentiles just don’t understand
As a gentile, I really don’t. I could really take ’em or leave ’em. Granted, I’ve never had a bagel in either NYC or Montreal, so maybe I will need to revisit those cities and perhaps my opinion will change.
no ones talking about how claire called her hair tie her “hair rubber band”
My friend forgot the english word rubber band once so she said “the office version of a hair tie”
Rubber band is a thing ppl say for hair tie atleast in California. Like “oh do you have a rubber band for my hair” or a “hair rubber band” cuz it’s like the English version of saying chongo which is Spanish slang for hair tie
I love when Claire goes rogue and just makes what she wants in protest.
I think its more that she actually made it gourmet instead of just replicating the original
I think its mire that she actually made it gourmet instead of just replicating the original
@Rick Rhodes Pretty sure Malcom meant with the tuna melts…
Fair i do love “snack time ” distractions as well
Claire: asks brad his pizza order
Also Claire: instantly regrets asking brad his pizza order
jaybuckODT21 I’m pretty sure brad is legally my father
This is 100% one of the best Gourmet Makes. No stress, just a good time in the test kitches. Keep it up Half Sour Saffitz!!!
Plus, most of the team came in and shared this one with her. SO lovely.
Not to mention i think it is the most gourmet version yet
Finally, a gourmet make where Claire isn’t driven to insanity halfway through
Claire: “I can’t pay you money but I can pay you in slices of mortadella”
Delaney: *inhales mortadella*
Laura S Delany*
No one:
Delaney’s Chest Hair: HEYYYYYY
Me: Yes.
“I would have made them with provolone.”
“Alright brad.”
Claire- ” ITS A WELL MADE BAGEL ”
Brad- ” oh. its not up for discussion.. ”
me- “🤣🤣🤣”
Claire: “I just like bagels”
Slightly sadder Claire: “and I just like making bagels”
It’s easy to forget she’s still a pastry chef. It’s where her heart is.
I love when everyone gets a “flavor” of Claire’s creations. They all get so excited!
It’s like the ice cream episode! Wholesome happy.
Delany: It needs to taste like less
Claire: *trying to melt him with her eyes* like less WHAT?
“Something weird happened. All I did was stand” – I felt that in my soul.
