The contest continues…..

Agree, she’s looking great!

Urrgghhh Sitwell.

That made me snort-laugh

Elevating soup now…

Yeah they do.

In some areas deer populations are too high and need to be controlled.

The Food Programme on R4 a while ago reported on a hospital that could get cheap venison from local estates and used it to provide low fat high protein meals to patients.

Elevate that soup 🤣

That also sounds like something from Harry potter!!! They have wingardium leviosa'd the soup!!

“Sometimes tricks go wrong” says Shitwell , hoping against hope that at lest two of the soups end up looking like his name.

Morels again too, also stuffed

Sitwell reminds me forcefully of a boyfriend I had decades ago. He wasn't into food, but he knew everything there was to know about Mahler. i was in awe of him but when he decided he was too good for me, I meekly agreed. I was an idiot but I was only 22

Is it really necessary to use another ENORMOUS fish for what will end up as one, maybe two small-ish bowls of soup? The trout and lentils thing also used a whole huge fish for just one fillet….

Sounds like a lucky escape!

Hunting though implies chasing animals and enjoying killing them. Even if like his family they eat them, for me personally its not something I agree with.
But, on with the show.

It is infuriating isn’t it. Most people making a fish soup would use off cuts because that’s what you do.

Definitely a lucky escape. He sounded very pretentious.

Justice for the prawns 🤟

Wizard like 🖖🖖

I know- looked up to see large amounts of fish being g chopped up. Why can't they say "the fish available is x and y- you get this much each"

I really don’t see why you would want to put a lovely fried bit of sea bass in soup, and I am not even going to mention sitting a delicious fondant potato in bowl and pouring broth over it.

Another contestant decides to do something they have never done before at this crucial stage of the competition. The Ozzie is out.

I made the most delicious pun lentil soup, from Matthew Ryle's instagram. It was honestly the easiest and most tasty soup ever. If I could remember how to do it without the recipe that's what I'd be making.

How do you think culling works?

The deer manager and his staff stalk the deer and then shoot them.

I LOVE tom yum soup

I love a Tom Yum soup.

Excessive mushroom use - red card
