"Happy little clouds"

Chef John truly is the Bob Ross of cooking 😉

"separation anxiety". That's why I come to your videos. The humour.

[jeffreyleeper]

This is truly an all time video.
Learned about what causes my separation anxiety AND got a lesson on meteorology.
Chef John you’ve truly outdone yourself.

Anyone else just find Chef John's voice comforting and reassuring? Amid the Covid-19 pandemic we've literally lost our business and home. Somehow, Chef John just made me feel that eggs will make it all better. Thank you Chef.

Chef John is so casual when talking about clouds that there’s no way he just researched them for the video

[wahooooh]

“I’ve seen your water bottle trick and I’m not impressed” 😂 this guy’s real

"Separation anxiety" bruh lmao

If you mess up the separation of the eggs, the yolk is on you.

I remember making these, like, 4 years ago. But I also remember folding green onion, pecorino, and chopped bacon into the whites. Loved it!

All these years later, and Chef John is still the MVP of Youtube cooking.

Totally gotta try these. I’ll try one when Mom’s still sleeping on Mother’s Day so if I screw it up I can make her waffles instead.

When my wife hears me laugh from the other room she says “you watching Chef John again?”🤣🤣🤣🤣👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 love your humor Chef!!!

Chef John: "And then we take a whisk, the biggest and most bulbous one we have."
Me: *looking at my one whisk*

[CositosKitchen]

I repeat, "If you're not gonna make cloudy eggs with runy yolks, don't make them" Solid advice!👌🏾👌🏾

Love this! My grandmother used to make these when I was a kid, which was like 50 plus years ago. Except we would put the uncooked whipped egg white right on the toast, around the edges, and then drop the yolk in the middle and put the whole thing in the oven. We called it a birds nest and it was kind of a family tradition. That and something we called a marguerite, which was a marshmallow on a saltine cracker, topped with jam, and baked in the oven till the marshmallow was kinda melty and toasty.

You should have some zagged, crisp bacon coming out of the cloud as lightning.

[wwdh]

Made this for breakfast. My wife said Wow!
She also said it would be good with Canadian bacon, so I played the part of the video where Chef John says it would be good with Canadian bacon.

29 seconds and 15 likes... Guess we all love the chef no matter what he is making.

[ChiefMoonChunks]

literally watched this video, got up and went to the kitchen and made 2 of these. I also added a wee bit too much salt but it was still good. I definitely would caution against using a smaller bowl. You're definitely going to have to put some whip action into your whisking, but you can slowly reach exactly what chef john shows here. will make again for sure

Thank your so much for still singing at the end when you say, "Enjoy..." I ALWAYS look forward to that. Oh, and all your recipes are amazing...
