Top Chef: Wisconsin Recap: Sausage Showdown
A high-anxiety challenge and a huge comeback might just be what we need to inject some healthy competition into the season.
Still, the judges think that Savannah’s pierogi and Dan’s potato pancake at least focused on the sausage and made good use of their dishes’ other ingredients, while Kévin’s risotto was primarily about Parmesan cheese — even more so than the rice, which had some broken granules, Bryan mentions, and which Tom says he could have cooked on the field for maximum freshness. • The dishes I most wanted to eat this episode: Kaleena’s kimchi and scallion donut with peaches and jalapeno flambéed with bourbon from the Quickfire, and Soo’s corn dog from the Elimination. Her Berbere eggplant with corn and pepper salad isn’t seasoned well enough, her bisi bele bath (rice with lentils) and potato curry is fine but not mind-blowing, and her Chilean sea bass with green chutney is well-cooked, but the sauce is too salty.
