Part of the starter? On top of pizza? A bed for main course protein? With the cheese course?
Two blokes said one airy fairy contestant was chuffed because she didn’t stuff her brekkie dish. Spatchcock might mean a small chicken, but I couldn’t find a reference for that.
I had a cat when I was a kid and he was always there when we pounded out the meat for the chicken fried steak because he knew the scraps were his.
He was always well behaved and stayed off the counter except one day Mom and I left the kitchen and there was the cat with the steak on the floor.
We loved that cat so he was quickly forgiven.

Season 4, episode 35 (!!!), they go to "Cable beach " to fish. The “beach” looks amazing, but they are told there are a lot of “crocs”, and they are catching “mud crabs”. I thought crocs and mud crabs were freshwater!
From Wikipedia
Looks like saltwater “options” including in Australia.

Thank you! That crocodile sounds like quite the beast. One link described crocodiles as “riparian” which reminded me I’d seen that word on HO once before.
I believe it was in the context of blackberries in the PNW.
I must say I am learning more about ingredients, especially seafood, I’ve never heard of before than I am about cooking.
It is my favorite show. I watched almost every season. I also like Hell’s Kitchen. Do you watch it?

I just watched the first episode.
It reminds me of a more upscale “Come Dine with Me,” but with the added stress of professional judges. It looks to me to be about as real as could be expected. They obviously choose contestants based on specific personality types to ensure at least some drama. I’ll be watching the rest.

I was wondering who pays for all the food?

I was surprised to read that the contestants pay for their own food for practice. It occurs to me that those in the Great British Baking Show may as well as their is often commentary about practicing at home.
The articles you linked sent me down quite a rabbit hole. It would appear that judge and “chef” Pete Evans is a loon.
That also led to learning that Robert F. Kennedy Jr is anti-vaxx which had not crossed my radar.

Me too. I am on Season 7, episode 11, and finding this season’s heroes and villains quite entertaining. And I’m learning about hosting dinner parties too!

I binge-watched the first season over a few days and thought it was entertaining. I’m sure I’ll end up watching the 11 seasons available on Amazon Prime eventually.

The youngsters in season made something like this, but with figs. Sounds intriguing!
Ducks nuts and dogs bullocks!
They are referring to the edible parts of sea urchins “tongues” instead of nads!
It lost to rabbit ragu as a luxury dish.it looked pretty amazing-balls.
