ITA - you gotta stick a spoon and taste to add seasonings - I'm always amazed at how many of the competition chefs DONT taste food - as they stand there in judging and the judges ask - about seasonings, THEN the chef bows his head in shame... and the audience shakes their collective heads.... its something I can do! I cant think of how to prepare most of those things... but, I am considering making duck breasts! I've never had that - I had duck confit at a restaurant once...

Duck breasts are really fatty, so they should be slashed - several parallel cuts - or scored - a cross hatch of cuts - to allow the fat to escape. There should still be purple color at the midde of the breast when it is sliced - YUM!!

The new season starts June 16th. I just saw the commercial tonight and got excited; I loved this show and look forward to a new season.

I think that I heard the date wrong or just got mixed up, sorry. The new show starts next Sunday after The Next Food Network Star. That is June 14th at 10E/9C time.

Stacey's correct. Here's a copy of an email that Tnt will find familiar: Our TiVo shows a new episode for Sunday June 14 @ 9pm. Doesn't sound like one I've seen: Prickly Situation = Competitors discover a spiny surprise in their appetizer baskets; the judges sympathize with a chef in the entree' round.

Thanks Serate. During the Next Food Network Star I saw a commercial for it that made me stop because I love this show. I swore it said the 16th so I ran to post that here, but I saw on my DVR today that it is Sunday. So basically the commercial said that it is a new season starting, so maybe we will have more episodes this time and that it is moving to Sundays.

FOUR new foodie shows premiering! Can life be better? I think Top Chef Masters is going to see some fireworks as there are some pretty big egos in those kitchens! I am excited about the chance to put my "mental apron" back on and see what I can come up with from the mystery baskets! I AM willing to concede that it is easier from my couch than in the actual kitchen!

LOL then you are way better than me. I can rarely come up with anything from these ingredients even with the comfort of my couch and the internet to cheat!

Stacey - I just love the challenge! I have no idea whether what I think up would be appealing to the judges - There is an epi tomorrow night, but the regular night will be Tuesday?

I am showing that there are new episodes on Sunday and Tuesday of this week. But, I think then it will go to new episodes on Tuesday only. My gramma is coming in to stay with me this week. She is a true southern cook and a great one. I can't wait to watch this with her. She doesn't know what a cookbook is, she just throws stuff in and it all turns out amazing. I think she will have fun with this show.

Having had three late nights preceeding tonight, I am thinking that I am glad am taping this epi! I need to be SHARP to think up what to do with those quirky elements in the baskets -

I accidentally taped this last night and I'm sorry but I think Alex Guarnaschelli needs to have some sex or something. First all of I think she looks like she bit into a lemon with her sour face. Then I think she's taking on the role of resident "witch" way too seriously. For pete's sake the challenges are to include all ingredients. NOT MAKE EACH INGREDIENT BE READILY VISIBLE TO THE EYE OR TASTE! I really don't like her attitude and she's one of the reasons why I don't usually watch this show. Last night's episode just confirmed it. At any rate, I'm glad they sent the guy packing. To stand there and actually finish his dish AFTER time ran out? Really? You think that would count?

Anything is possible, Scoot! I think I accidentally DIDN"T tape it. The plan was to tape Network Star followed by Chopped. I have 1 hour and 13 minutes taped - don't know of what as I haven't watched it yet!

Well, I'd set the DVR to record the Food Network Star and must've accidentally also set the next show after (Chopped) to record. Sometimes my fingers are flying before my brain catches up. (And no comment from the peanut gallery!)

Gotta' agree - Alex was a real sourpuss last night. She didn't act like she enjoyed anyof the food. If the guy who broke the rules had won, I think I would have deleted my season pass.
