    This was most definitely the hardest one I have seen. this wasn't a question on what "cheese" is in something but what is the style, technique, and ingredients of an entire dish. a lot of the ingredients he used are in the realm of traditional mole and once he went down there the difficulty was immensely harder. good job

    A good addition might be to allow Chris to hear back what he says while tasting the dish. He tends to forget a couple of the correct things he picked up on initially; when writing the shopping list, and memory isn’t meant to be part of the challenge.

    The ingredient score is wrong, most of the ingredients they marked as red would be in the sauce that the canned chipotles come in... morita is a dried smoked jalapeño, chipotle in adobo is a smoked jalapeño in adobo sauce. Most of what they marked as not being in the dish would be in the sauce the canned chipotles come in. Aaron went all Sandra Lee by just using cheap canned chipotles.

      He actually took out the ancho and morita in the second version, lol. The primary flavor of canned chipotle sauce besides the smoky moritas is the adobo sauce, which is largely ancho and guajillo. So the only one he got right in the end was the guajillo. I'd of thought identifying chipotle/adobo sauce would be straightforward to anyone that commonly made traditional style Mexican food.

      @@SteezyMcEasy Yeah. Blind tasting is almost always the most difficult challenge in any cooking competition show. And that is just identifying a single vegetable/protein/herb/etc. I know there are some easy ways to whittle down the cooking technique (like the texture of boiling vs. deep frying) but to do that for stage and every component of an assembled dish is hella hard. Just think of the challenge they did blind tasting different cheeses a few years ago.

    The one thing that this series desperately needs is a rubric designed to be as objective as possible that all the "judges" have to abide by.

Taste is the hardest to put a quantitative score on, but a fair distribution model could probably be devised.

Some ingredients are more important to a dish than others so they should probably be weighted. For instance if he missed tomato sauce on a pizza, that’s pretty egregious and should bring down the score a lot, but if he missed oregano on the same pizza when the pizza has a variety of herbs on it including basil, oregano, and parsley, that shouldn’t bring the score down very much.

No. Rearrange it on a time when he has full use of talent. I have worked 9-5 and 10-6. Once that clock starts showing it is 2 pm, my mind goes south. I am tying up loose ends so I can grab my time card, punch myself out and leave.Give Chris a edge.

    No where in America is a 61% an F. Give me a break. I think where Chris gets stuck sometimes is he says “this is a blank” and his brain tells him what ingredients are traditionally in it (or not in it) and he can’t/won’t deviate, even when his taste buds tell him different.

      I’ve always had 65% be there cutoff for failing! In NY and PA. But completely agreed about your second point. He went down that mole rabbit hole and couldn’t come out!

      I'm in Canada, and depending on what grade I was in, the failing grade was either 50% or 60%. I was looking for a comment on the "F", trying to figure out how he failed 😂

    I've never seen Chris struggle so much. I think if it's a cuisine he doesn't cook a lot himself, it's 1000x worse. He did awesome with Maangchi and Madhur Jaffrey's recipes, though. Guess we need to give him an easy Jamie Oliver, Guy Fieri, Giada, or Ina recipe.

    Chiles rellenos are a staple dish/food in my house,at least we eat once a week .We have it mostly with rice if it’s a side dish ,but if it’s a main dish it will be filled with cheese (Gouda),or with picadillo (veggies and meat in some sort of tomato sauce with a lot of heat to it)

    • @fordhouse8b
      @fordhouse8b 2 роки тому +1

      It depends on what the questions are. If we assume that knowing the answer to every single question on a test, is essential to successfully completing a task you are being trained for, or it will result in total failure of that task, then a 100% score should be required to pass.
      In my opinion, whoever designs a test should include some questions that need to be answered correctly in order to pass, and others, that if answered correctly will result in a grade higher than merely passing. As an example, imagine that there are only four questions on test about WWII.
      1. What year did the US enter the war?
      2. What nation attacked the US at Pearl Harbor?
      3. What other nation did Congress declare War on subsequent to the attack?
      4. Who was the head of that nation’s airforce when the war started?
      5. What year did WWII end?
      A student who answers 1942 to 1, leaves a blank on 4, and 1946 on 5 but knows that it was the Empire of Japan that attacked Pearl Harbor, and that Congress also declared war on Germany, would get a 40% grade,.
      Another student who gets 1 and 5 right, also leaves a blank on 4, but says that North Korea attacked Pearl Harbor, and that Congress also declared war on Iraq, would score the same.
      In my mind, the first student has managed to memorize a couple of dates, but knows nothing of true importance and should fail, while the second one got pretty close on the timeline, has some basic knowledge about the war, and should pass.
      The percentage of questions answered correctly often matters less than which ones are correct, and if the wrong answers are reasonably close or completely off base.
