I made apple crisp for my dad when I was in junior high and he loved it so much I had to make it for him every year. It became his favorite fall dessert. I make it for my husband now in memory of the first man I ever loved, my dad.

I love how America's Test Kitchen is never afraid to use the microwave if it's best for the recipe. No pretention. Love it ❤️

I really liked this “at home” format! Thank you!

Finally cooking for families. Great job!

Great recipes this episode, and the set looks so homey and comfortable, but I missed Bridget and Julia’s back and forth. Just last week I was telling my husband how much I enjoy seeing them together. It always makes me crave to cook with my girlfriends-one of life’s great pleasures.

I LOVE this series!!! Chicken thighs for dinner tonight!

Well, aside from "add some bacon, too."

Oven chicken thighs are my favorite! Love the "just stick it in there, walk away, and it'll be great every time" nature of them :D

*The fall is here!* And so is America's Test Kitchen! It smells like Holiday Season already!

I’ve only discovered the tastiness of chicken thighs in the past few years, and really appreciate learning more cooking techniques. Note to anyone who thinks thighs are gross (as I used to): you really have to cook them a long time to render the fat and tenderize the meat.

Absolutely. Treat them like BBQ. Take them to 200 or 205. Fall-apart tender. Not quite so juicy, but they're fatty so they don't taste dry at all.

Christopher Kimball was the heart and soul of this show. These two were good with him. Without him they could use help.

One of the very few cooks I have watched that know the reflective side of the foil goes to the inside!! If you put the shiney side out, you reflect some of the heat that you are using to cook the food, shiney side in, the heat used is reflected back into the food, and cooking is actually less time. The foil makers used to put this item on the outside of the box of the roll of foil when I was a kid back in the 50s, but they don't do that anymore. One more bonus from putting the shiney side to the food is that the food sticks less than to the dull side if it comes into contact with the foil, so cleanup is easier.

The "shiny side dull side" thing is actually a myth. It's an artifact of the manufacturing process and has no real impact on the absorption of heat energy. "Regardless of the side, both sides do the same job cooking, freezing and storing food," Mike Mazza, marketing director for Reynolds Wrap, told TODAY Home via email. "It makes no difference which side of the foil you use unless you're using Reynolds Wrap Non-Stick Aluminum Foil."

@@Doone226 Yeah, I was all set with my #ackshually. Since I am here, I will say the only reason there is a shiny side and a dull side is because two sheets of aluminium are pressed simultaneously. So the outside layers are shined due to the rollers and the insides are dull. That's all. As you said, makes no difference to the temperature, mostly because aluminium retains about 95% of the heat.

I think I've found the holy grail of Apple Crisp! Thanks Julia!

That apple crumble looks fantastic, I will absolutely be making that this fall season! Thanks for sharing. Chicken thighs also making my mouth water LOL!

Wow. Good stuff Bridget and Julia. These recipes look excellent. My family will love them. Thanks

Great explanation about cooling the crumble and how the pectin reacts. Also great recipes, that chicken & the apple crumble are the beginnings of an excellent fall meal.

Patience is a virtue in life and cooking :)

You guys are the best! Always informative and insightful. Amazing presentation. Thanks so much.

Apple baked anything is an Autumn baby’s anthem! 🍁🍂

Always worth watching. Informative, clear and appetizing.

Made apple crumble with a friend's apple harvest. So simple and delicious. Edit: oh my... American apple crumble is completely unrecognisable from English apple crumble. We use only 3 ingredients for the topping, sugar, cold butter, and flour. Combined into breadcrumbs, and it's a thick layer on top of the apples. Simple, delicious, not overly sweet. Served with custard, cream or icecream.

Bridget, I would send you flowers.

I left the garlic in the microwave for 4 minutes and it totally burned 😱. The good thing is that I had another head of garlic and this time I left it for only 2 minutes and then baked. The chicken I baked 20 minutes more, but this time at 400• F . I loved the sauce, it complements the flavor of the chicken very well. Thank you for this recipe. 👍😋

I love this home format of the show

Cooking and the science behind it. Thanks!

Lovely to see you!!!! You guys are the best..

My mother made what she called an apple crisp and the only difference is that she used flat rolled oats with brown sugar and butter. Next to her fruit cobblers it was the best.

Julia, one of my FAVORITE desserts!!! Never knew Golden Delicious was “the” apple to go for! Thanks!

This all looks so good!!

I’ve made this apple crumble twice now!! It’s fantastic!!!! ❤️❤️❤️😍😍😍

I think some people in the Midwest use oatmeal and brown sugar for the topping. It's crisp with the taste of brown sugar, plus it's oatmeal. Wholesome and tasty!

Great tips. Thanks

Great recipes as always. Miss you all together, but that will come I hope soon. Tried the chicken and it was a hit. And of course apple crisp!

Love you guys I always watching you guy’s are the best👏👌

Nice recipes. Good, guys!

Great show……..thank you so much and you are great, so easy…..😲🤔😮😦💥💥💥❤️

Thanks for the technique! I've been twice cooking my family pack chicken thighs. First seasoned in the oven at 350, storing in the fridge and then air-frying however many I'm serving for that meal. The skin comes our very crispy but that extra fat remains. Can't wait to try this tip!

I made the chicken thighs yesterday and they were the tastiest thighs I ever ate. Definitely will be making these again!!!

It's interesting only having one person at a time but it works. Great video

awesome different take on the iron skillet

Love the chicken recipe sheet pan method. Super simple week night meal for busy people. Also like the versatility, substitute pesto, change up the seasoning and match a sauce, prepare 2 to 4 pieces for a single or a couple in a cast iron pan or small sheet pan.

My God. I'm making both of these!

No Granny Smiths?! I thought that was THE apple for baking. Looking forward to trying all the recipes in this episode.

I always use Gravenstien or Granny Smith apples. It always turns out beautiful, and the flavor is terrific

Julia, kudos for explaining the importance of weighing your ingredients for the crumble.

Chicken thighs for dinner tonight! These recipes look excellent. Thanks for sharing dear 💖💖

I love America’s test kitchen. I have a couple of your cookbooks, and your recipes never fail. A little extra information I’m always hoping for is which sides to pair with the main protein and sauce. Which vegetables would go best with the crispy chicken thighs and salsa verde?

I have two of them, they're the best ones, I got mine from a restaurant supply store online, along with two cooling/baking racks that fit them perfectly.

I do so much of this stuff, but I grew up watching you guys instead of cartoons. I love learning the food science behind stuff, I went to culinary school and learned some stuff but never got to go back to learn more food science. I now have permanent nerve and muscle damage and got told I could never go back to my field it broke my heart and crushed my soul. I love getting bananas really ripe and then freezing them and then when thawing them the cellular structure breaks down and makes almost a banana liqueur type thing and all that goes in when making banana bread. And I do love a higher fruit ratio, I actually made a peach cobbler the other day where I cooked the first part down got it kind of syrupy caramelized thing going on and then added the other half, then I added the topping on and everybody went nuts and I'm pretty sure it's against the law to serve any dessert without ice cream LOL

Bridget is so funny! lol

Gala Apples are awesome. I have been taught when making Apple Pie to use two types of apples. 🤔 I would do the same with this type of a crumble! 👍

Love

Congratulations Mama and Papa! I related to so much of your story. You look beautiful!

I could never get my children and even husband to eat chicken thighs. There was shrieks of horror. Now that they are all grown up, including husband, thighs are our preferred choice. This recipe is on for the weekend and I may try the crumble too. I’ve been using a BBC recipe, my heritage, but I think I will give yours a try.

Smells so good! Any changes to the crumble if using peaches or cherries? I live in Colorado so we have it All!

Apple Crumble: It's possibly unique to the UK (not sure) but a very large cooking variety called Bramley is used for apple desserts - more tart/acidic and hold their texture during cooking. Don't know if they are available in the USA? Another popular recipe option is to split the flour quantity 50/50 between plain and wholemeal for a more textured crumble topping.

Yum 😋

Thighs, drumsticks and wings are the best part of the 🐔.

I like her evil laugh before diving into the crumble! BWAHAHAHA!

Yes, great flavor, juicy and versatile!! I’d luv to find store bought chicken nuggets made with thighs cos breast meat dries out, like years ago. Here in Alaska, we got Costco who sells chicken thighs for 0.99/lb…the one affordable thing I can afford. So I came here looking for other thigh recipes❤️‍🔥

You have convection on that oven. How long and what temperature would you use for the chicken? I have a Wolf Dual Fuel so your advice will be greatly appreciated.

I was served spiralized beets that were so crispy and delicious. I keep trying to make them but have not gotten it right. Any ideas?

Yum, good to know,andyummy

"... to remind me that my husband never sends me flowers..." Wow, is parsley classified as a bitter herb?

Best applies in the country

Looks great. Please provide metric measurements too. People around the world watch these too. Not just those in the USA.

Golden Delicious was THE apple to use in the in the 70s and 80s. Now it’s Pink Lady and Braeburns❤️

I don´t use aluminium foil, nor do I have a broiler... but I´ll be trying this chicken recipe tomorrow. Thanks

Earth to Bridget's husband, BUY FLOWER.

Glad they are uploading the new seasons shows. Funny, last night I just fixed chicken thighs. I baked four of them in a casserole dish. I mixed up cream of celery soup with milk, and added fresh diced baby portabellas, and seasonings. Easy way for one person.

I use a Ninja Air Fryer. I tend to lower the temp about 25°F and keep the amount of time cooking the same. I check the internal temp halfway and move them around so both sides get hit by the fan. I still might finish under a broiler. I have a nice Breville convection oven on the counter. I never use my real oven anymore, unless it is Thanksgiving and I am having people over. The Ninja and the Breville are the two best things for single cooks.
