I would have loved to see "what the food team came up with" for these ingredients like they did last time with mystery ingredients. Let us see what it COULD have been with more planning and less panic.

The "root" of the puntarelle is typically used in a dish called Puntarelle alla romana. The puntarelle are cut, put in an ice bath for an hour to get rid of a lot of the bitterness and to curl them. Then you combine them with a simple emulsion of Extra Virgin olive oil and anchovies. It's usually served as a side dish, but sometimes I've seen them as a starter aswell and they are very good!

Small correction: the 7-spice mix that they use is actually called shichimi (七味). Togarashi (唐辛子) is just the Japanese name for a chilli pepper. Red chilli powder made from togarashi (唐辛子) is one of the spices in the shichimi (七味) spice blend.

I love how Ben's "Don't know, Micheal!" reaction is just "Look I'm making this up as I go."

I mean JAIME! His growth in food knowledge is incredible to watch. He had a plan for flavors and was confident in what he was using. 👏

actually, Baz was nearly on the money with the banana blossom. Here in Thailand they often make a fritter out of it. Its generally chopped up, mixed with some chilli paste, msg and whatever and then doused in a batter made of "crispy flour" and water then deep fried. Delicious. But strangely, over here they believe it helps breastfeeding mums make more milk! Whatever....!

Yup, the Tuna looked amazing (but could use a bit more), the plating on the rest was pretty sloppy.

The banana blossom gave me a (hopefully) fun video idea for you guys: "Ingredient mastery". Take an ingredient you like but are not too familiar with, like banana blossom, and make many different dishes with it (sometimes with it being the star of the dish, sometimes as a support for a different ingredient) until you are familiar with it and can integrate it into future dishes. Because I think this is like the third or fourth time you guys had banana blossom in a video in the last couple of years, and even Ben panicked at the idea of using it today.

Watching Ben flustered feels like in the middle of a suspense thriller movie! And here is a Tip. When in doubt with anything, make a chutney out of it ;)

Ben’s tip about using leaves to make an herb oil is a good one, but has to come with a caveat. If you’re adding garlic, either use it quickly or add in an acid. Oil and lack of oxygen are the perfect environment for botulinum, and more than one case of poisoning had happened in the past from homemade pesto. Safe cooking friends!

I love puntarelle. The leaves can be sautéed with garlic while the puntarelle, the stems and 'buds' can be thinly sliced placed in an ice bath to curl and served, Roman-style, with an emulsion of lemon juice, anchovies and, for those who like it, garlic.

Whilst I love the pretentious ingredients & gadget episodes, my heart still belongs to the cooking vids.

I spent years working with a colleague who’d throw a ‘spontaneous spanner’ into works at the last minute.

Hearts of palm could be a good ingredient for a mystery box, I normal use them to make vegan calamari and crab/tuna for sandwiches

Barry was complete chaos, as opposed to Jamie, who was trying to be measured and methodical.

this episode just showd how much Jaime has progressed. He actually had chef-like thinking in planning out how to brst use the rhubarb and tuna and how everything should go together. He was mostly calm and in control. Baz on the other hand went crazy and didn't care about dish composition. he just went with ehat he thought might work without consulting his partner. next time, this should be a 3-way mystery box challenge: Jaime vs Baz vs Ben

It's an episode like this that makes me realize that Jaime really missed his calling as a chef.

Jamie has the patience of a saint, I would've lost my shit with Barry. The way he goes off the rails with no consideration, is such an anti-team player and cannot take the criticism he rightfully deserves for it must be exhausting. How he hasnt lost his teamwork badge is beyond me. 😆

Because I'm Filipino, I probably would have made a sinigang-kind of dish using rhubarb as the souring agent. But instead of having a soup, I would thicken it down into a sauce, saute the greens in some garlic, roast off the banana blossoms and some tomatoes, then pan-sear the tuna steaks. SKskks so good

Could you lads do a northern versus southern African challenge? I’ve never seen you explore southern African dishes

I am loving the fresh look guys! Meal packs app also looks great and is awesome to use 😁

Chicoree Salad can be excellent if you have the right sauce for it. Cook 3 eggs, seperate the egg yolk, chop the eggwhite down and toss it into the salad. Then crush the yokes with salt, pepper, mustard and honey, add a bit of vinegar for it to properly dissolve, then slowly add oil to emulsify the mixture into a thick creamy sauce. Goes very well with the bitter Chicoree.

Battle recommendation: wine pairing battle! Ben loves wine so perfect choice. But don’t do the classic red and steak and Chablis and cod, something the normals won’t know straight away. Like an acidic champagne (goes surprisingly great with fatty meats), a really strong, mentholy, peppery red like a pomerol or the Italian Le Difese (maybe chocolate dessert?) and a full bodied white Rioja (best for red meat!) or the surprising vignes de paradis Chasselas from Terroir du Leman (apricots, almond paste, salty finish). Play with it!

Well Barry earns the jerk award for this episode. I swear it’s like he personally wanted to sabotage the work.

“You used all the crockery then.” LMAO THE SHADE 🔥

"Cuddles and bum slaps!" ROFLOL I love you guys.
