Iron Chef: Yogurt Battle
I know I have a weird variety of subjects here, but that’s me. Of the weird variety.
People who know me (both of them) know that I am a huge fan of Iron Chef. Not the American version, which is okay (except for Bobby Flay… jackass…), but the original Japanese version rules. It’s a cross between sports, a cooking show, and a Godzilla movie. I have been lucky enough to get hundreds of episodes from the far corners of the internets, and I figured I would do some commentary on them here.
For starters, today’s subject; The Yogurt Battle.
Challenger Junichi Itoh chose Chen Kenichi (Iron Chef Chinese); Chairman Kaga had Yogurt waiting for them. It seemed pretty cut and dry: Chinese food doesn’t use a lot of yogurt, and the other guy was a Japanese AND French expert, plus had experience in Italian.
Of course, Chen kicks ass and won. Sorry I don’t have more, I can’t pay full attention to these. Tomorrows will be better.
Ad if not, no one ever reads this thing anyway.
