Its gradually getting closer to the finish line of Knorr Taste Quest 2, and it still remains to be seen who will walk away with the coveted prize of being Nigeria’s best in Culinary matters!
Over the past weeks, Hot has indeed been getting hotter, and episode 11 was no different. The theme for this episode’s challenge was ‘A Desert with a Nigerian Twist’, and the contestants were given a massive twenty five (25) ingredients to make four deserts in just 1hour 5minutes. Continue...
Some of the ingredients included: Apple, Cocoa, local Cherry (Agbalumo), Grape Fruit, Eggs, Cashew Nuts, Cranberries, Garri, Flour, Rice Crispi’s, Bread, Digestive Biscuits, Rice, Cream Cheese, Butter,Chocolate and Knorr
The contestants went about their task with the usual excitement, in anticipation to be the best for the task ahead. After an intense time of cooking, the contestants were asked to present their dishes.
Chinelo was the first to present her dish; she got very bad reviews from the judges, with Dr Roberts stating that she made “Eba” with butter, and called it pastry. Chef Renée also felt she did not incorporate the ingredients very well. Popoola took the judges by surprise, and had good reviews, the judges only complaint was that his food presentation had not improved over the course of the show. His grapefruit cheesecake and Butter pudding were also described as very good. Dixon and Wando’s presentation were inviting and appealing, but the judges commended Dixon’s effort more as they believed she had the best food presentation as well as delicious desserts. She emerged the winner of the day’s task and was rewarded with the sum of twenty thousand naira for an excellent performance
For Chinelo, the writing was on the wall from the minute she presented her dish, especially as she was already on probation from the last task. Her quest for the crown came to an end, and she was asked to hand in her knives. With the intense heat in the kitchen, who do you think will emerge Nigeria’s best?? Hot will indeed be getting hotter as we near the finale. Join other food lovers onwww.facebook.com/KnorrNigeria. You can also watch missed episodes on www.Youtube.com/KnorrNigeria.
