For this episode of '4 Levels,' we challenged chefs of three different levels - an amateur, a home cook and a professional - to make their versions of chicken soup. Once each of them had completed their culinary creation, we brought in a food scientist to review their work. Whose version of the classic sick-day remedy looks the most appetizing to you?

Check out the level 3 recipe on the ICE blog: www.ice.edu/blog/epicurious-chicken-soup-recipe

    Frank’s soup: the most professional Johns soup: the easiest Gabrielles soup: the most expensive (saffron)
  • When frank didn't make his own spices and chicken : my disappointment is immeasurable

    My husband and I have made Frank's chicken soup a few times and it's so gosh darn delicious. We have to keep watching this video in order to get the recipe right since there's no standalone video of his chicken soup recipe, so I have finally succumbed to just scrubbing through the video several times just to watch Frank's segments and write everything down. So far, I've been doing this for about 45 minutes. -_-
  • Me: "am straight!" Gabrielle: "what is that? Who is she? She's saffron! "
  • @matota8958
    Beginners Soup: My soup takes 1-2 hours to make Home Cooks Soup: My soup takes 3-4 hours Frank: Best I can do is 5 years take it or leave it
  • John : “I buy the chicken in the supermarket” Gabrielle : “I buy the chicken from my local farmer” Frank : “I like to improve the flavour of the chicken by being a chicken”
  • @tkeosaksith
    Not gonna lie, when it comes to simplicity John's soup looks the best. Every culture has it's own version of chicken soup/noodle soup, and it's the simplicity that makes it the best.
  • @pattyy884
    Anyone else jealous of how CLEAR Gabrielle’s complexion is?
  • @oly6732
    Level 1: Imma add in some pasta Level 2: Imma add in some pasta Frank: lets make dumplings
  • @datsun4666
    Level 100 Chef: “So now we’re just gonna get a plane ticket to Kazakhstan to mine some iron for the pan...”
  • @Tuddzie
    Tried Frank’s recipe on a cold rainy day, absolutely amazing. So worth it 🤤
  • @csn2892
    I appreciate Frank more after watching the spaghetti and meat balls video.
  • @Cemarimoney
    John: uses chicken breast Gabrielle: uses legs I bet Frank’s gonna use a whole chicken. Frank: I like to use whole chickens Well excuse me then, nevermind.
  • I can't be the only one just wanting them to try each other's soup...
  • @goodoladam
    I love these videos. Even though they are showing differing levels of experience and expertise, they're never mean-spirited. I never feel as though the beginners are ever treated with disrespect. I don't know. It's encouraging.

    My favourite combo is Emily, lozenzo and frank. All time ogs
