Okay, that made me grin. And made me hungry for eggs benedict. I usually clarify the butter first, but it looks like your sauce came out great anyways, so I think I'll skip that step to save some time next time I make 'em.

Separating eggs with your hands like Meryl Streep in The Hours. Nice touch. ;-)
Very nice video.

Man, turn down the corney a notch or two.

that was hilarious! You guys are naturals. I especially liked the moment when Adam slammed the door and you can see Craig just starting to crack up.
Amanda at 3:55PM on 04/17/07
Really, really good. :) I liked the production, the food looked wonderful, and it felt like you guys were having fun, which is really catchy.
More like this, please! :)

awww, i wanted to see how the power of eggs benedict could revive a dying person.

I loved it! Is that Craig playing the neighbor? I love the corniness...it makes everything more delicious.

"Eggs Benedict Arnold" is a joyless amalgam of food movie cliches, none used more exhaustively than the dying neighbor. There's the inevitable moment in every food film where characters (and the audience) leap in terror when something unexpected pops out of the kitchen. The genre's been beaten to death. I found the performances wooden, the set...
Oh, never mind, I was thinking of the Food Network Awards.
This wasn't bad.

This is 100% entertainment. Thanks, Adam.

This is SO funny. I might even attempt to poach an egg now...

Craig stole the show. The rest was...eh.

I love this video! The Amateur Gourmet is so cute. (My poached eggs look like toilet paper too!) Keep the videos coming!
Stepha at 7:20PM on 04/17/07
The music was just the right touch..kept the momentum going.
Keep at it..will watch more.

Just the humor I needed for a break from studying organic chemistry!
Ash at 10:30PM on 04/17/07
That was really funny Adam. I kept on expecting Lisa to be the gal who would be delivered the eggs. I shoulda known betta!
Elise Bauer at 10:35PM on 04/17/07
That was great.

You guys are so cute! Craig is great, and now I want to try my hand at some Eggs Benedict! I remember Megan at NotMartha doing some experiments with egg poaching techniques awhile back... you should've checked those out!
Vincci at 2:20AM on 04/18/07
Adam & Craig are the best! Keep the video's coming. We sure do enjoy them on Adam's blog.
"What the hell is that? It looks like a jelly fish!" Tooooo funny! :o)

Where is Lolita?!?!
Very funny, you guys. Glad to see you collaborating on fun stuff like this. I'd love to see even more focus on the cooking and the food in the future, but the humor and editing is spot-on. Kudos.

Awesome! LOL.

That was really great! The title caught my attention because when I was younger, I didn't like eggs at all and we had Eggs Benedict every Christmas morning. My dad would leave the egg off mine and call it, "Eggs Benedict Arnold".
