Not that anyone cares, but the cooking wine is 15% alcohol. So, basically, wine.
Huh! I haven't used it since I turned 21 and could buy the real stuff - it makes no sense to me that it's legal to sell to minors without being de-alcoholized, even with all the crap that's added to make it undrinkable.
Yeah, it makes no sense. And they definitely don't treat it like alcohol - here, in the grocery store they have to get a 21+ cashier just to check you out and input your DOB, but they treat this stuff like any condiment.
But moving on to last night's ep - WHO ARE THESE PROFESSIONAL COOKS WHO HAVE NEVER MADE A PIE???
I hated the guest-judge's hair, but I really appreciated him saying at one point "my grandmother's not a chef, but she can make a pie." COME ON CHEFS, PIE IS NOT THAT HARD.
It always surprises me, too, Jess. These people have never had a dinner party or family holiday where they made a dessert? It baffles me.
Mmmm - pie.
Although not many of those last night would have made me say that.
Also, I'm curious how that choclate thing was anymore not a pie than a quiche would be (though the chocolate thing looked good).
Quiche is totally a pie. Moreso than the winning cobbler thing, anyway. (Which looked super-yummy, but not very pie-like.)
Cheerios.

More to the point, who are these Top Chef wanna-bes who don't have some sort of dessert up their sleeve given they usually always throw at least one dessert challenge at the guests.
Quiche is totally a pie.
Right, so what was up with the guest judge's comment "It's really more of a quiche than a pie".
Also, I'm curious how that choclate thing was anymore not a pie than a quiche would be (though the chocolate thing looked good).
Yes, it was really a chocolate tart but it looked (and evidently was) delicious so it got a pass.
Most of those pies were nutso.
It's so weird these first couple of weeks -- there are people who have gotten basically no air time yet. Like the guy who did the "Puerto Rican" bbq. Where did he come from?
