Crème Brûlée ft. Elon Musk Flamethrower

A crème brûlée is a dessert so decadent and rich that you can't have it too often. I felt that, given we just passed TWO million subscribers and it happens to be my birthday today, it's completely fair to indulge. Crème brûlée actually translates to 'burnt cream,' which is a decent--but not perfect--explanation as to what it is. A good crème brûlée consists of a creamy, smooth custard base spotted with vanilla beans, neatly topped with a sweet, hard crust of caramelized sugar.

Now, there are a few things we should discuss that are a bit out-of-the-box in this video. First, the fact that I'm sending one of you to a 3 Michelin Star dinner for two. I'm going to put all the fine print below, but in summary I'll be paying for a trip for two people to go experience the restaurant of their dreams. I want to hear your stories. Why you want to go. Who you'd bring. Where you would go. Anything else you think may be relevant...but please keep it short and sweet! I'm going to have the winner send a clip of their experience and share it in a video down the road.

Also, I think it's important to note here that we used an actual flamethrower to torch these. It's the Elon Musk 'Not a Flamethrower,' and I had to be safe and keep the flame to a minimum, but it was certainly a fun experience. This will officially be our go-to piece of equipment whenever we need to torch things from now on. It's a gift not really to myself, but to our channel as a whole. If you ever think of cool additions like this, please absolutely let me know in the comments below.

“That could cause a huge fire.”
Nick: “Yes”

[SorenMatsuoka]

I love how she said “that can cause a huge fire, ” and Nick just goes, “Yes.” Then proceeds to continue flame throwing

My father is 48 now and had a heart operation almost 1 year ago, this made him realise that quality time with loved ones is one of the most important things to do in life! He is almost fully recovered now and really loves good food. Especialy if it is high quality. My father has always been amazing to us and everybody around him and i would really like for him to go and experience a 3 star michelin restaurant. We have one in the Netherlands called the liberije witch is suposed to be amazing. I am a student restaurant, hotel, and kitchen manager and so my interest also lay in this area. I really like your content and i think you are an amazing chef!!! Thank you for all the relaxing videos and amazing ideas for the kitchen that you gave me!

I’ve already dreamt of taking my mum to Eleven Madison Park in New York.
She named me Madison because of Madison Avenue and I would love to thank her for helping me chase my dream of becoming an actress despite the fact she has fibromyalgia by taking her.
Love the amazing content Nick! Thank you for bringing joy to everyone in such a challenging time!

Nick: do NOT try this at home

Me: as if I have a flamethrower just laying around

[elimasters]

I would take my gramma, she does so much for our family and she is so kind and generous. I feel like for all the kindness and generosity she has given to the world over the past 66 year I feel like she needs a nice dinner, The restaurant is Curate'

[aliciawilliams]

The fact that only one year later, he has over NINE MILLION subscribers says something, and is amazing.

I would take my refugee student, Suna, to Quince in San Francisco. She immigrated from Iraq a few years ago and her stories are inspiring. Her generosity and willingness to give back to the community has inspired others in similar positions to shift their outlook in life from one of self to service.

Nick's pure "yes" when he answered to "that could cause a huge fire", is genuine as fuck

As a native French speaker, I really like how Nick says “crème brûlée“. I don’t know why but it’s just satisfying lol

[Jack]

I would give the dinner to my middle school band teacher and her husband at Per Se in New York. I'm in high school now and wouldn't be who I am today without her guidance. I think she really deserves it!

"I urge you not to try this at home"

me: yes because we all have a flame thrower at home

[alexsigmon]

This man does better foreplay with his creme brûlée than I do with my imaginary girlfriend

[cooperstertz]

I’d go to Gordon Ramsay by Gordon Ramsay and I’d bring Nick with me. I’ve love you since watching master chef and watching you cook now has been as dream. I haven’t missed an episode! I cook almost everything you show and the experience I get from your recipes. I appreciate everything you do and I would be really appreciative of an opportunity to go experience something like that with you.

Cheers! - Cooper
