Sea urchin served in sea urchin
“iron chef america sucks…original iron chef had shit like electric eel and hammerhead sharks as secret ingredients…tonight’s ingredient for iron chef america, spinach. they should make it like oompa loompas or some other crazy shit”
You know what, I agree with this completely. Iron Chef America should be called ‘Pussy Version of Iron Chef’. I don’t care if it’s hard to develop a 4 or 5 course meal out of a main ingredient in an hour. As much as I respect each of the American iron chefs in terms of their mastering of their own culinary art, the show is just complete bullshit. Try making that many courses out of an ingredient you DON’T use in every day cooking. Spinach? Seriously? GTFO with this secret ingredient spinach crap. Original Iron Chef had these dudes nailing live eels to a chopping block in order to keep them still to chop off their freaking heads, roasting entire pigs to a crisp and using sea urchin as a bowl for a soup. Original Iron Chef was badass. These guys used knives that looked like swords and had to plate ALL their dishes to be served.
Iron Chef America on the other hand: lame. THEY DON’T EVEN HAVE FUNNY VOICE OVERS!!! Hearing those ridiculous translated conversations and pseudo jokes in those ridiculous voices was the icing on the cod soft roe ice cream Iron Chef Hiroyuki Sakai once made.
If Iron Chef America wants to show its got even an eighth of the balls the original Iron Chef had, they need to start using ingredients like: -Snapping turtle -Shark fin -Ox tail -Purple sea urchin -Cow’s tongue -Bald eagle -Python
Then and only then will Iron Chef America finally become the proper version of the once amazing Iron Chef.
OH, the new host is an uber herb btw, has nowhere near the proper eccentricities to successfully take over Iron Chef.
