preeya August 21, 2019 Share August 21, 2019 This week it's back to only one amazing episode. S10.E20 One Pan Wonder Summary: Daphne Oz (Dr. Oz's daughter) is tasked with revealing the contents of this week's Mystery Box challenge to the Top 8. The contestants then have 60 minutes to create an elevated one-pan-wonder dish using a staple kitchen tool: the stunning cast iron pan.

I don't like when the kids cry and I really don't like when she cries. Boo Hoo get out. At first glance I thought you said "Boo Ho get out" 😂 I can't stand the fact that she cries every episode. First 1 or 2 times is understandable but you toughen up and the sting is less. She's crying for the judges to look at her and feel bad and keep her. Jaime should've been the one to stay. In my opinion he's the better cook. Him crying wouldn't look as cute I guess. 1 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/89955-masterchef-us-general-discussion/page/21/#findComment-5543512
Rammchick August 21, 2019 Share August 21, 2019 It seemed clear to me that Jamie was toast from the get go. When Aaron and Joe walked up to his station and saw him grinding his meat twice, they decided the sausage would be mealy and terrible. Clearly they've never eaten a hot dog, which is ground into a mousse-like texture before being stuffed into casings. It also seemed clear to me that the contestants had additional lessons prior to this challenge. You can't tell me that someone can watch someone make a sausage once and then replicate it without some practice. Getting the casings on the funnel and getting the sausages to stuff properly is not easy - - we've seen people fail at that time and time again on cooking shows, and that's even some chefs who have a lot of experience. And yet, not a single person had any difficulties getting the sausages made. Hmm... I was away for a couple of weeks and binge watched 4 episodes to catch up, so forgive me for dredging up old news, but that whole bit with Grant Achatz a few eps back was so fake. I appreciate the creativity that goes into creating dishes like that, but I'm sorry, that's just not food. The dessert on the table top thing is a staple at Alinea -- if you watch his episode of Chef's Table on Netflix, you'll also see him making that. Ho hum. So now I have to scrape my dessert off the table to eat it? No thanks. 9 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/89955-masterchef-us-general-discussion/page/21/#findComment-5543624

I think the assumption is that a country boy (which I am not but after 67 years below the Mason-Dixon line) will have a lot of expertise with cast iron. The challenge would be to go beyond the run of the mill skillet dish, taking advantage of the special characteristics of cast iron cooking. 6 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/89955-masterchef-us-general-discussion/page/21/#findComment-5545065
