Desperate Defiance
May. 31st, 2017 08:05 pmA conversation from last night's Masterchef:
Judge, pointing to four covered dishes: For tonight's cook, you'll get to pick from four herbs. [Lifts first cover] Parsley. [Lifts second cover] Sage. [Lifts third cover] Rosemary. And what do you think is under the final cover?
Very young contestant: I'm really hoping it's coriander.
Judge, pointing to each herb: Parsley. Sage. Rosemary. And...?
Very young contestant: Basil?
Judge, lifting final cover Thyme.
I really hope that someone explained to her later what that was about.
That bavarois was... too dense.
So, yes, Masterchef is back, and although I don't love it like I used to, it is still top entertainment. My favourite part of any episode is when the judges pass judgement, uttering the most extraordinary sentences with portentous tones and ominous pauses. Look out for a few particularly fine examples throughout this entry.
