THIS. Even if his intentions were good, he wound up sabotaging her dish! WTF, Daniel??
I think the object lesson of this episode, aside from "jealousy makes for hilarious screen takes," is that people need to speak up: Carla had to voice objections to her teammates, and Jamie and Radhika needed to speak up about how their team's dishes actually came together.
Yes.
You know even if it was Jamie's ingredient it was Radhika's marinade - she should have been given (or should have taken) more credit.
Jamie's spice mix is called "vadouvan."
Thanks! I knew you'd come through, Megan.

I thought the vadouvan was in the carrots not the marinade.
Regardless of who did what, I want that dish for my lunch!!!
Vadouvan! Fascinating!
Evidently there was a recipe for it in a summer issue of Gourmet this year.
I thought the vadouvan was in the carrots not the marinade.
I think it may have been in both.
I read a comment somewhere else saying that vadouvan is this year's ras al hanout.
Heh.
Thanks for the link lisah. I never understood the French connection, but now I realize it's because it's from Pondicherry. Of course, now that makes me associate it with Life of Pi.
I printed out the Gourmet recipe for it and am going to try to make it. Am trying to figure out if I can give it as presents but it looks like, although it will keep for a while, it has to be frozen.
Although, then, how did Jaimie bring it with her from SF and keep it for the weeks they've been there?
That looks fabulous. I dunno if I could make it though. Don't think I have enough patience.
Thanks for the Eugene quickfire clarification. Oh, and the SO rightly pointed out that it would have been tomatoes and not tomato paste during the episode.
Yeah, Daniel's sabotaging Carla's dish was crazy! And with shiitakes, which are so strong and difficult to manage. I appreciated very much that Carla acknowledged the problem but didn't throw him under the bus. She was very careful with her phrasing, which is unusual on this show.
Those two girls I can't hold in my memory at all. The blonde death by spice girl and the "just friends with Hosea" girl. I keep forgetting they're on the show.
