"I hate talking to people over the phone" Damn true

*Adam challenges friends to do random food shit* Sounds like an award winning series right there.

The reason why they can't get the correct texture is because unfortunately, what Nikki got in hand leaving the shop is definitely not the right kind of Tomme d'Auvergne intended to prepare the Aligot. Aligot is made with FRESH Tomme (in fact the same cheese, but at an earlier stage of transformation, so before it's ripened). Fresh tomme has no crust, a more buttery/creamier texture and a also totally different taste (a bit sourer, more dairy, and mush less mushroomy than the matured Tomme). And... its also not stinky at all ;) Basically the same difference than between cottage cheese (fresh version of cow milk cheese) vs camembert (matured version of the same). The fresh Tomme is what gives Aligot its specific texture and taste, without the need of adding any cream or other ingredient or, like you did, adding more and more matured cheese to get only a tiny bit of the stretching effect. I tried once to make aligot with matured Tomme (couln't find the fresh version) and well, it's quite good (I understand the team made a success) but it's definitely far far below the "real" one with fresh Tomme. Pics of fresh tomme here : www.au-buron-de-fages.fr/img/tomme-fraiche-laiterie.jpg (at a dairyer) or here : aligot-aubrac.fr/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/tome-fraiche-de-l-aubrac.jpeg vs pics of matured Tomme : www.lafermeauvergnate.fr/138-thickbox_default/tomme-d-auvergne.jpg. Hope this will help if you want to try this really fancy dish :) (oh, and also : it needs more garlic than the single crushed clove Nikki added ! The garlic -at least 6 or 7 cloves- should cook with the potatoes leaving the cloves intact, then mashed when mashing the potaoes) Hope I'm clear, as you can doubt it, english is not my mother tongue.

I love these 2 together. Don't get me wrong, I like Rei too, but there's something about these two that work so well! Plus, truth be told, I love Andrew lol. Anything he is in, I am clicking and watching!

Adam is everyone's best friend... Adam always makes everyone cook something for him.... Be Like Adam!

I really like this kind of video when Adam just want to see everybody failing at everything. I understand you, Adam.

"I just asked Adam why he cast us two together. He said we're both interested in cooking but inexplicably bad at it" ( but interestingly enough Adam doesn't remember saying those exact words)

''Wa-paddle'' ''A-peeling'' O H N O Cooking Comedians

I need this to be an official series with Adam, Andrew and Nikki.

i swear adam challenges should be a seris

Good recipe but not exactly the right cheese: you used an old Tomme d'Auvergne, aligot is made with a fresh one (it doesn't smell and it makes the aligot more elastic) 😊

Why didn’t they ask Alex if their aligot was good? She said her mom made it for her all the time.

Andrew laughed... it's my first time seeing him laugh that... much. lol.

"we're looking for a wood paddle... a nice big one" (derby face) I DIED 😂😂😂

I'm french, my dad is from auvergne, and I laughted so loud at those poor souls trying to master the Aligot ! Next time: MORE CHEEEEEEEESE !!!!

THE VIDEO THAT BIRTHED EATING YOUR FEED. IM HAVING A BLISSFUL MOMENT.

Petition to start a series called *Adam's Challenge* ?

1:50 this mans really said 'po TAY toes" the same exact way steven does... we love a powerful friendship that can transcend several series also,, niki. i love u so much,,

1:50 effects of hanging out with Steven Lim XD

American smelling French cheese is my favorite thing to watch, this one is nowhere near the really hardcore ones, and you payed 150$ FOR IT ? You guys should come over in France, it's cheaper AND smells even worse eheh !

The way this is edited is just so comforting and really aesthetic

andrew seems so bubbly here

The way Andrew says “Po-ta-toes” just reminds me of the fries Worth It video where he calls out on Steven for saying it that way and he’s just doing the same here XD

1:50 i just noticed that andrew said "potatoes" like how steven says it awhaha

I need more Nikki and Andrew with Adam and Rie. I like their dynamic of food experiments.

It didn't work because the the cheese they used was too mature. You need to make it with a fairly new cheese, since over time cheese loses its elasticity because as it matures the bacteria feast on the fat content within the cheese. This is why parmesan is hard and crumbles easily. To make Aligot you have to use very fresh, immature cheese. Plus I think they added too much potato.

If they added mozarella it might just be elastic like in the featured video...

WE NEED TO SEE THESE TWO IN ONE VIDEO MORE OFTEN

Heyyyy everyone! Soo, here in France, alligot is actually one of my grandma's speciality :D And to have this smooth texture, so fluffy and elastic, you'll have to add some milk or/and cream to your potatoes, so you can have first a better taste, but also a better texture. This is clearly too dry here :D The cheese has to be also melting friendly, some of them are not meant to be melted (Cheddar is not an option guys) :p So if you want to recreate this, try to add milk or cream and choose your cheese wisely to have the best Alligot of your life

1:55 *andrew is so cute aww*

I get older sister and younger brother vibes when I see these two together and I love it ❤️

I’m loving this series!

“A-peel-ing”? Wow. Steven really rubbed off on Andrew.

This is the most I've heard Adam talk, grunt or make any sound.... I am confused lol

I love the comedic chemistry between Niki and Andrew in this one :D! Never seen either of them laugh like this!

You know in the Olympics when they have... *The Streamer Competition*

I NEED MORE ANDREW AND NIKKI

you guy's didn't had the right king of cheese, you used the old one and you need the fresh one without salt in it

Iconic duo...really miss them tgt

I totally love how Adam is Andrew's boss in this show, in retrospect to how their relationship is in Worth It

“I hate talking to people on the phone.” “I’ll do the talking.” NEED ME THAT TYPE OF MAN

Andrew is like bacon everything taste better with him

Our school had a French foreign exchange student and she made this for us and it was amazing

It’s 2019 and I miss this

*"There is nothing APPEELING about this PEELING"*

I saw *Andrewwwwwwwwwwwwwww* I clicked immediately.

The editors deserve all the respect

I love these two together

ok so, I need a whole series of Adam challenging people. I keep finding videos of "I tried to make.." under this same theme with Adam challenging Buzzfeed employees. I wish there was a folder of all of those videos. I hate trying to search for them to see if there's more videos like this. I like this concept. Yes! need more!

is this Adam guy best friends with everybody? last time i checked he was also Ashly's best friend

I love their chemistry

I love there friendship so much.

Who else felt that Nikki (sry if I misspell that) was acting differently in this video? I feel like ever since she got married she got a lot happier:)

The first words I’ve heard Adam say “This is just baby food”

These BuzzFeed edits are EVERYTHING!!!!

Rie is literally the mother amongst all of em. No matter what, they always need her

You really tried your best, but unfortunately, the cheese used wasn't the good one, you need tomme fraiche de l'aubrac. It is not salted and has a more elastic texture. The trick is also to stir it constantly and in the same way in order not to break the cheese threads. But it was really fun to wach, I love your videos ;)

This should be a series! Such a great dynamic duo!

this is my favorite pairing of people that work at tasty

Adam is a silent genius. Buzzfeed you right!! Never let him go ever

Niki + Adam + Andrew + Rie = ❤❤❤❤

You're supposed to use fresh Tomme, changes the texture and the taste ;)

Bring back this series!!

Andrew is so laid back! I want his calm to be by calm.

I cannot smell in your place, but if the cheese had quite a smell, it's obviously NOT "fresh tomme", the one that is traditionally used for aligot. Fresh tomme is not so far from curd cheese, and this is essential to recreate the smooth-flowing texture of that dish.

I'm french and Tome D'auvergne is my fav cheese. It is soooo versatile. we eat it alone with bread, but also with just a point of sweet-sour marmelade (like apricot) on it, or even sliced on a bread that just goes in the oven for 10 mins. oups, I'm hungry.

IT DOES PUT A SMILE ON PEOPLES FACES , ANDREW SMILED SO MANY TIMES IN THIS VIDEO

The french aligot clearly has a recipe with WAY more cheese, you guys did great with what you had, good for you :)

He technique was to keep stirring it. With potato starch, the more the kneading is more elasticity and more glue-like.

Everything in the series contains cheese Conclution: Adam likes cheese?

be like Adam is my future dream job now...

andrew never smiles lol !!! he finally smiled

Haha this prononciation of Auvergne 😂 very weird to see my family country in a Buzzfeed video 😂 And yeah our cheese stink but that's literally how he's at his best 😂

6:05 Adam saying '...baby food" XD

So happy that adam’s here

idk i just love the old content like this than these days one

Andrew ❤

The way they peel the potatoes though 😭 . I thought one of them would take his / her fingers off .

I'm glad I discovered this

No one: Andrew: Tom d'avergine

6:12 i see balls like literally testicals

PLEASE MAKE THIS A SERIES

Very cool. I would try it but add seasoning into my potato puree. Im inspired. As always I love you guys!

This should be tried again cuz now theres actually a tasty recipe for this

Andrew and Nikki in the same video? *YES PLEASE*

The fact that they time lapsed them putting on aprons. Lol

I love the combo of Andrew and Niki Friendship goals🤠

That's really fun to see that even expert chefs gets confused about the ingredients😂😂😂😂just love them😘

Andrew seems too serious to smile and laugh and make puns. It's amusing >^

Sorry its not the good Tomme d'Auvergne you need to buy a fresh Tommme not affineted Tomme sorry from a french videos fan

I actually ate this at a French boarding school in Espalion and it was super good, I highly suggest it

Best cooking pair everrrr

2:21 wotaaarrrr zizz powtaetoosszs

L'Auvergne a pris cher aujourd'hui LOL

Im French! You are so cute when you say "Tomme d'Auvergne" 😂😍

Rei, Adam, Andrew and Nikki is god tier.

I just clicked on the video because Andrew was in the thumbnail tbh

Aligot is one of my favorite dishes but it takes just A LOT of time to prepare! But it's really fun to see foreigners trying to recreate French recipes ☺ I'm pretty sure it tasted good anyway because it cannot go wrong with potatoes and cheese 😂

Best duo ever

I love rei she’s so pure
