Outchef’d Recap for 7/20/2023
-This week our home cook Mike Mazza will be cooking against Rocco DiSpirito. As an aside, I forgot he was on Dancing With the Stars back in the day.
-The two of them have 45 minutes to cook a dish with capon….which is a more tender version of chicken.
-Michael makes crispy capon with polenta. Rocco makes Moroccan capon tagine with couscous.
-Rocco feels intimidated by Mike because he seems to have a lot of experience in the kitchen.
-Michael burns his mushrooms and has to start them again.
-Rocco seems to be struggling with time management and hopes his dish is done in time.
-Eddie Jackson scours the streets to find judges to taste the food.
-Rocco’s stew is not cooking, causing him to continue to worry about time and if he can actually finish the dish.
-Rocco finally finds a way to finish the dish.
-Michael, however, worries about his dish finishing and being cooked properly. He ends up having to cook it on a higher temperature and hopes for the best.
-The judges give pros and cons of each dish and vote for their favorites.
-Michael gets one vote, $5000 and an autographed apron from Rocco.
-More next week, stay tuned.
