[mrusali]

Chef John. I love watching and listening to you. you are so funny but easy to follow. can you do general tsao chicken? i can't get mine to be crunchy and the sauce isn't as tasty.

3:53 did u just call me a pussy? lol jk

[michelle13579123]

on my to-do list ;)

[ALluvDM]

looks soooo delicous!!!! i love recipes!!!

[MyStarify]

this might be a stupid question but what does the salt do?

[Gaaraismybf]

@MyStarify It levels out the sweetness with something salty so that it's not too rich to eat. I'm not sure why Chef John puts such a small amount of salt, but it might be because he put the chipotle powder in there already. :O

[SagaciousSilence]

I'm not making this for my girl. I don't want her to gain weight!

[davidalm2002]

whyinsulindotcom is the recommended site I got from the video..... lol

[StClair90]

BIG EGG YOKES

[BeautyFreakist]

Can you do it without chile?

[heygirl369]

@BeautyFreakist yeah you can it was optional :)

[tapa4ik]

for how long i can keep in in the refrigerator ?

[carmelonguyen33]

@tapa4ik : less than a week in my experience. I made 8 little cups of this and ate 5 in the first 2 days. 3 days later, when I open the refrigerator, the rest of the cups are trashed already... what a waste~~~ ;(

[1986AnneLouise]

@carmelonguyen33

have a look at my video if you want, you can leave the batter in the fridge for up to a week in an airtight container and just bake the ones you want to use right away. the cooking time is very short.

[adamelidn]

nice adjectives u use in the choclate part

[Amayzing33]

can you use white chocolate instead

[MinecraftPwns]

Screw those chocolate Dairy Milk owns.

[starrynite90]

I love your tutorials. Keep up the great work. I'm definitely going to try this out.

[AlexDesise]

OMG this looks so good! But without chilly, since I'm allergic ._.

[salerio22]

Nice

[stanley14321]

12 people dont have hands, so they can't make this:)

[ranger296]

@stanley14321

In your quest for thumb whoring, you came out as an insensitive sob.

[stanley14321]

@ranger296 ok? whats your point? and it was a joke dude, chill out.

[ranger296]

@stanley14321

First of all, I'm tired of seeing people saying "x amount of people did blah blah blah". It's getting to the point where its just overs-saturating the youtube comments, and is no longer funny.

Second, if you think about your "joke," maybe you'll realize how offensive it is. You're pretty much laughing at crippled people.

[stanley14321]

@ranger296 if u were crippled, you wouldnt even be able to get here, so dont try to be a smart ass and insult random people

[ranger296]

@stanley14321

First, your the one who made that joke with dark humor.

I'm not the one insulting random people, you are.

Second, just because a crippled can't read your comment, doesn't mean you should make fun of them

Third, your joke was not even funny, it's been overdone too much.

Forth, it's called prosthetics.

Fifth, your the one being a smart ass.

[stanley14321]

@ranger296 let me guess, ur one of those trolls who have nothing better in life to do than annoy ppl online when u probably couldn't do shit in real life

[stanley14321]

@ranger296 seriously, if u dont like my comment fine, but im not about to get into an arguement with some random kid on the web who throws a tantrum over a comment. if you don't like it, ignore it or at least bring to my attention its offensive and leave, thank you, bye bye. :P

[ranger296]

@stanley14321

No I'm not a troll, to be honest, I thought you were

Also, why are you saying I have no life, your'e the one who's trying to get worthless thumbs over the internet.

To be honest, we could go on and on arguing forever, or we can call a truce and limit the resentment. :P

[stanley14321]

@ranger296 look i wasnt trying to troll, i was watching this video the my bro came into my room and told me to write it cuz "it'll be funny" so i did, i didnt mean to offend anyone and truce it is.

[satyr666ns]

mate...you are a badass cook :)))

[shugokaix]

12 people got cream on his face while whipping the cream.

[TheBunkitty]

@shugokaix I bet you were hoping to get thumbs up.

[wanknightstand]

wow ! Nice dessert but... Sadly I'm gonna have to eat this alone again this year...

[xxIDropDeadGawjusxx]

@wanknightstand Im sure theres someone out there for next year :D!

[wanknightstand]

@xxIDropDeadGawjusxx Hope so...Haha...

[valdezmiguel2]

@wanknightstand not if you kill yourself.

[alisiae1]

@wanknightstand More mousse for yourself! That's how I think of it :D

[LucidWhispers]

@wanknightstand It's ok. :) I always eat chocolate alone because I don't share my chocolate, I eat it all! D:<

[cocoarimi0219]

@wanknightstand why do u have to eat it again alone this year?? :(

[jrdsoneandonly]

@wanknightstand If you make it I'll eat it with you lol. or bring my own. lol.

[proudmexican111]

what it you add mint instead of Chile??

[TheBeatlesFan86]

What guy has two thumbs and just got laid thanks to this vid-e-o!!!! THIS GUY!

[NaruSakuMae14]

omg i love the humorr on your cooking vids. (:

[gauxrdious013]

i like this guy x]

[Sushichef00]

12 persons couldn't do this dish.

[marshmangoe]

I tried it and it was delicious ! Thanks Chef John ! I added 2 tbsp instead of only just one cuz I wanted more sweetness (:

[DragoonBoom]

@marshmangoe of what?

[marshmangoe]

@DragoonBoom ; sugar (:

[hoangtuso2]

I have a silly question chef John....is cool whip a type of whip cream? can we use cool whip instead of heavy cream? I think you will say no but doesn't hurt to ask ! lol

[hoangtuso2]

Chef John, I love this recipe. I want to make this for my boyfriend in his birthday but unfortunately, he doesn't eat chocolate. Would you please make a dessert video for a fruity mousse ? I try to search for a mango mousse cake or berry mouse recipe for a long time but none in english. Thank you and Merry Xmas!

[Arteolike]

I'm going to make this tomorrow for Christmas Day Dessert!

[TheBunkitty]

Shouldn't we let the chocolate cool before we add the eggs or it will cause srambled eggs.

[KolbeinnKafteinn]

@TheBunkitty  the chocolate isn't that hot... :)

[TheBunkitty]

@KolbeinnKafteinn Oh thanks for letting me know im really stupid these days :D

[ThePurpleZebras]

How come there aren't any egg whites in this?

[islandstargirl]

Lol! "syke!!"

[noidea4aName]

I've tried many many chocolate mousse recipes, including this one, and the best one is the simplest: - 100 g dark chocolate, - 3 eggs. That's it, 2 ingredients.

Mix the yolks with the melted chocolate, turn the whites to snow, mix the whites with the egg-chocolate mixture, put the whole in the fridge for 2-3 hours, you got the best chocolate mousse ever in TWO INGREDIENTS!

[alishadoggie21]

Chef John, i tried this recipe today and my chocolate and egg mixture was a little lumpy. After that, i folded the cream into my chocolate and it was so dilute. What was wrong? :/

[castorel]

@alishadoggie21

1. you overheat the choc to without stirring

2. you overcooked the yolks

3. the choc mix wasn't cold enough when you add the cream

4. you over beat the cream or you stopped beating the cream at soft peaks stage.

hope this helps!

[alishadoggie21]

@castorel

1. I used a double boiler and stirred quite alot.

2. This is a possibility.

3. I think it was cold enough.

4. Nope, I beat it till stiff peaks formed.

[BloodyGaaraOfSand]

I wonder why some people are afraid to get 'creative' in the kitchen? A little of imagination and experimenting doesn't really hurt does it?

[bmullen16]

TELL HOW MUCH WATER AND OTHER INGREDIENTS TO USE

[CT2507]

@bmullen16 go to his site and find all his recipes there. and stop shouting!

[castorel]

@bmullen16 i believe you could find the recipe on his website, go and check.

[heavenlyjumper]

@bmullen16 Check out his website like he says for all the details.

[syueumura]

[ClaireSuperNana]

[DestinyZmamii340]

[v13tb01432]

[randomworldshow]

[randomworldshow]

does it have to have chille?

[Vouk73]

@randomworldshow Trust the man... Chocolate + Chili is awesome!

[Silentbutdeadly21]

10 people are allergic to chili powder

[JkAc9597]

That was the sexiest folding of whip cream into chocolate I have ever seen

[pandablahblah]

i really love your recipes and i like the chef who's man (men) than some woman (wemen) who made how to cook here.

he does cook very meticulously and very better than her!!!

(and he just never talk much as some woman cook and at last found that she just made her lava cake became too hard, no molten chocolate lava , but keeping say that "it's delicious. perfect!". although she couldn't say anything because of shame for almost 1 minute! :( )

[ruukiskittles]

How in the hell can you dislike this?

[alishadoggie21]

Actually.. You don't "cook" the egg.

[TheAeroTurtle]

OMG.

I ate it when you said it was ready...

Tasted good anyway.

:D

[PopTVTeacher]

Who dislikes this? EVEN if you don't think the recipe would be good, what do you get out of disliking this?

[mackles]

shoot me in the face that looks incredible

[N6600]

9 people went rough with their chili powders and got burned!

[evilwoman24]

Your a trip ! You can cook for me any time ;)

[SerenityM16]

I can name at least 1 thing better than folding chocolate and whip cream, eating it :)

[SerenityM16]

I got to remember these Christmas for my bf. :)

[thebirdsandthebeees]

KANDEEJ MUSIC! xD

[zbraswell2000]

these pics look like they're from a magazine...

[loveu2me1]

SO Good  ;D

[satsugekibukouken]

"its ready TO EET "

me: OMGWTFSOTONES *ω*

"SIKE"

am i being trolled??!?

[TheHacker1456]

@satsugekibukouken wtfff?

[XRedDaggerX]

can you replace the chilly pepper with anything else?

[ShatterEffectt]

@XRedDaggerX there are alot of options if you don't like a bit of spice with your chocolate, i would reccomend a bit of mint extract or just ignnore te chili and add some fruit to the finished product.

[SweetHeart4563]

drippy peak LOL

[bobobobobob93]

everytime i try to seperate my eggs at least one liiiiddddly bitty piece of white gets in

[suchanjv]

When I whip egg whites or cream I often get droopy peaks. Does that mean I over whipped them? Because when they get droopy and I whip them more it doesn't improve at all.

[septip123]

my chocolate turned out a bit "grainy." What did I do wrong? Over mix the cream and chocolate?

[de5nise]

what kind of chocolates did you use dark milk or plain brown chocolate?

[ihsan1983]

" I ain't never scared" so yea i would put some chilli pepper...LOL

[surf1062]

"It's ready to eat. Psych! No it's not." You rock.
