We watched a good episode of Iron Chef last night (Sunday March 22nd).  The secret ingredient was coffee beans which would have been an 'oh crap' moment if it was me.  I am contiously amazed at how the chefs on the show are able to take the secret ingredient and make amazong dishes.  This one however; takes the cup ;-).  At almost every turn both chefs were making excellent dishes which I might even try to recreate myself.  
Weeks before the show, the chefs are told three possible secret ingredients. They spend a lot of time coming up with meals around those ingredients. When they get to kitchen stadium, it is only a surprise as to which of the three was actually chosen.
ReplyDeleteVery nice...I always wondered if and if so how far in advance they found out about the secret ingredient.
