Chicken Pot Pie | Basics with Babish

The autumnal equinox has long since passed, the fall is upon us, and we must pay tribute. And how better than with a bubbling-hot, veggie-packed, rib-sticking chicken pot pie? Pumpkins are passé, apple-picking is pointless: let's prevent a prosaic pie and properly celebrate the...period in time that it is. Which is fall.

“That may seem like a lot of butter, but we’re gonna need it for the sauce” I’m gonna say that every time my mom questions my cooking skills

"Michael had chicken pot pie for lunch. Actually, let me rephrase that, Michael had an entire chicken pot pie for lunch. Let me be more specific….Michael ate an entire family-sized chicken pot pie for lunch and then he promptly fell asleep." Jim Halpert, The Office

I appreciated the somewhat offhand mention of Why the Peas, Parsley, and Cream go in seperately at the end.

Thanks, friendly ghost. He really does leave his oven door open a lot.

Alright there, Hannibal.

To think that babish taught himself how to cook many years ago and now is showing us how to cook good food. Love you babish! Keep doing what you’re doing

Babish, could you please make Spicy Mapo Tofu from the Fate series?

[HonkusPonkus]

I feel like we need a "phantom oven" counter for when the oven doors open or close mysteriously in the background.

I like to blend my stock vegetables and add it back into the filling. Makes it super flavorful and thick, and less wasteful

[alexkpai]

i cant help but find myself saying “holy crap that’s a lot of butter” numerous times during this video

[alexkhayat]

Was the “buttery flaky crust” line a reference to that commercial w the old couple? If so bravo you have unlocked a memory.

[TheCardboard_Box]

I’m surprised you didn’t do a Chicken Run clip when the lady’s says “Mrs Tweedy’s home made chicken pies!”

[AUisGoLd]

Why do I always find myself here when I'm supposed to be studying

[admiralcapn]

I typically use some ice-cold stock to bring my dough together instead of ice-water. Imbues the crust itself with that delicious chicken-y flavour.

Also, at 9:13 it totally looks like you're eating out of a frisbee.

[moist_blue]

I deeply saddened over the fact that you didn’t put any potatoes in the pie

[MMCLLC]

"You can always go forward, you can never go back." Honestly those are words to live by.

[wiiu]

The mauler twins would have appreciated this
