Something Very Interesting

Nanood ba kayo ng MASTERCHEF kagabi? Kristine, Josh, Becky > the remaining contestants in that blockbuster televsion show. Akala ko kagabi ang pinaka finale. Hindi pala. May kasunod pa palang episode yun. Grabe naman. So next week uli ang final finale. Becky's out and only Josh (once a military guy), then Kristine (with special needs? or handicap?) It seems unfair that Becky was out of the contest. Well she was promised by the chef of Hell's Kitchen of a job offer in a restaurant and that was good assurance that she did a great job. Sometimes when work becomes odd and there is so much challenges and oddity there you'll see which one who really passed the test. If only the test is about the same for every cook. This is true in the sense that even in schools when students are to take the same kind of test, the same kind of subject but test are different for each student and for every individual. That's how tough it is.

In Masterchef show Becky was the last to have the chance to cook something that she haven't try yet. Since it was Kristine who was asked first which of the uncooked meat : chicken, beef oxtails, or frogs she wants to cook and present and serve to the 3 judges...she had chosen the chicken meat. Then Josh had the option to cook oxtails and unfortunately Becky had no other choice but to cook the frogs.

This kind of oddity in testing cook, students or workers depend on the person's talents and ability. Examiners wont test a person's IQ or ability if that person wont ever cope up or has no ability or capacity to know that testing is simply a matter of formality. It's all black and white out there but anyway WHO CARES? It's just a show. Don't they have script? Is it scripted? That's what happened in front of the camera, on television, in movies there's always a SCRIPT.

Life's real issue when it's really REALITY and you are not in real movies, you are not an actor nor an actress everything is not fun and everything is real and it's your own drama and comedy. Well only YOU know what life is anyway. I know not cool! Not cool when you're in front of the camera and people look at you like you have to be smart and hope to God that nobody will shame you or put you in a very provocative way. Well thank the Lord God if you're not a celebrity but an ordinary human being because in real life to each his own or her own. Your life's not my life.

What so funny about the food they cooked?

The chicken is filled with crumbs and they looked so dry. The judges said it's crumbly but soft tender inside?

Then the oxtails looked weird. It's like covered with sponge with sauce. Is it spongey or fat? Like a spongey caulliflower hahahaha. It was cooked on pressurized cooker and it shows tiny meat but bigger portion of fat? What? That's how it's viewed on television screen. Fat should melt after it's been cooked. How come that oxtails are strange!
-------------------------------------------------------------
Reminds me of the cuttlefish or squid I bought at the local supermarket and cooked it with coconut milk. I was cooking the squid and I found it hard to make that squid softer and tender than it should be. It was unusually tough. There is something wrong. It was tough like rubber! Actually it was fake squid. Shocking eh? Who the hell sells fake squid? Why? What for?
-------------------------------------------------------------

The frogs looked like small chicken legs and fried on small amount of oil while the potatoes were soggy soaked on hot oil. But the judges said the frogs are delicious. Yuck!

The judges thought and tested the food they cooked are delicious so they based their judgment on presentation. Becky lose her chance on cooking fish sauce (from scratch leaving small portion of fish) on her first trial test. You can have a bottle of fish sauce and have bigger portion of fish.

Who will win next time? Josh or Kristine? Be the judge or judge them for yourself.
