  • I've been watching ATK for so many years that all these people feel like family to me. I'm a never married senior so maybe how I feel about ATK folks sounds pathetic but I really feel comforted when I watch. They are all so different from one another, but oh so likable. They make each recipe SEEM easy even the complicated ones. 😊 💜 🙋
  • I’ve been happy with my chicken soup for most of my life. However I must say I’m glad I found you two great cooks knew how to show us a better way to make the best tasting ckn soup simply by measuring the onions and then adding soy sauce. I went from making good soup to GREAT soup. Just had to let you know how such a small thing could unexpectedly mean so much to someone 💖🤗 73 year old Grandma says thank you.

    Love that you contrasted the quick chicken recipe and the longer pot roast recipe. And thank you for all the tips too, such as using the baking soda and soy sauce. You guys do a great job explaining every step along the way.
  • @treysouth4180
    I am amazed at how much flavor is in the farmhouse chicken noodle soup, it came out perfect. Thank you for my new go to recipe! NOTE for INSTANT POT USERS: Follow the recipe and steps as stated in the episode. Use sauté setting to cook onion and garlic, and set Instant Pot to 20 minutes on high pressure followed by quick release.

    I love this show - all the presenters are so professional and polished and all the test kitchen stuff is interesting.
  • @sypk2
    Thank you ATK! My husband has caught a cold and we cooked this noodle soup together, with a whole chicken gifted by a friend. This turned out so delicious and my husband feels today much better! 🤗🤗 Hugs and Love!

    Thank you, America's Test Kitchen, just for being you. Much love.
  • "What is non-fat cheese, anyway? It's just the wrapper at that point." - Bridget Lancaster, 2019 Thank you! Finally someone said it! 😂 Also, I desperately want a pressure cooker. Gotta save up some money to get one.
  • @saliolson5649
    Made the chicken soup last night for dinner. I’ve never been satisfied with my broth before, the addition of soy sauce-WOW! I also decided to amp it up by making homemade noodles, ten extra minutes of prep, then letting them dry, less time than a trip to the store and totally made a Sunday supper to remember and repeat.
  • @joannekucks4343
    I’m 67 and never had a pressure cooker but I now think I’d like to get one. The time savings ready attract me. Thanks! 🥰
  • @donnabeaty4760
    I love to add lemon to my chicken soup after I put it in my bowl. Just brightens it up and takes the greasy taste away. Yum!

    Feb 6th... $20 chuck roast marked down to $8.00. What am I going to do with this thing? Feb 7th.... Test kitchen hears my prayers - praise the chefs.
  • Thank you Julia for explaining the reason behind quick and slow release, I always just did what the recipe called for, but never understood why. Now, with better understanding, I can structure my meals better. Ok, I'd never seen a fat separator like that, that has to be the coolest, most necessary kitchen gadget ever. You learn so much with ATK videos it's not even funny. Better than any culinary arts school (no offense, and I did attend one). Keep up the good work.
  • @greatsounds
    This chicken soup is amazing! I just made it tonight, had to scale back the liquids for my Instant Pot 6 quart, but holy cow! Wonderful, savory, meaty, glorious, soup. So very good. Thanks to you all for the great recipes!
  • I'll be buying a pressure cooker just to make these two dishes. Both looked delicious.
  • YAY!!!! More Elle videos, please and thank you ❤️❤️❤️. I always have “ah ha” moments listening to her. And she compliments Bridget’s no nonsense genuine discourse that I’ve always admired and was the perfect antidote to Christopher Kimball. 😇😇😇
  • @bobbaker8263
    My brother loves his pressure cooker. I on the other hand am old school because I’m older & love the aroma of chicken noodle soup marinating throughout the house.
  • @alanvonau278
    This is ultimate comfort food. The recipe can be easily modified to make chicken matzoh ball soup or chicken and dumplings, all delicious. I love America's Test Kitchen.
