I suspect that if he'd gotten that can open, the outcome would've been different.

This is true. For sure, the character and flavor of the mango is changed.

Mango chutney is cooked.

If you go to a lot of trouble to make the salmon skin crispy, then serving it skin side down ruins it. However, Kareem's salmon skin is the sort I leave on the plate and then feed to the dog!

I thought it looked like salmon with gray, rubbery skin, when it hasn't been cooked properly.

I don't think Shota's flavors and techniques always translate to these kinds of competitions. Yes he has won some of them, but it seems like the judges don't get him at times. I really feel like not watching the rest of this now that Shota and Jet are out 😞

I seem to remember seeing that ingredient show up on another cooking competition show. And it was a disaster then too.

It's not the judges, it's the producers who tell the judges to do that 😏

The timeframes they're given are just designed for failure. 2.5 hours for a cheesecake, with all that required decoration? It's no wonder most of them were dismal.

It's ironic that Tobias, as a Number 1 seed, got knocked out by David, the Number 8 seed. That's how his road to Number 1 started.

Thank you!

Shirley Chung is on a new Food Network show called House of Knives which premiered yesterday. Apparently filmed before her cancer diagnosis.

He still seems to pronounce it differently every time he says it. Clearly Fabio learned nothing from being on Top Chef. You never make anything "two ways" or "three ways" in a competition.

To me, it's a pair of Beatles songs 😉

When he said that, he transformed the Little Shop of Spring Magic into the Little Shop of Spring Horrors. Oh please no.
