Like a lot of people I know, I watch a lot of HGTV and Food Network. One of my favorite shows is Chopped. If you’ve not seen it, basically, 4 chefs are given a basket of random ingredients that they must turn into a meal. Whoever’s is best wins. Now, I’ve watched enough to catch some tips and tricks, but I’ve also noticed that they often encourage chefs to cook from their cultural heritage. So if you are African, Caribbean, South American, or whatever, they like when you incorporate your culture’s traditional spices and flavors. I’ve never seen them say it to an American Midwesterner, so I wanted to imagine what it’d be like if they did. The idea makes me laugh anyway.
Chopped – All Sorts
