Just saw a trail for Sleb Masterchef - it's back on the 18th August, at 9pm, with Giorgio Locatelli joining Grace Dent. Chuffians assemble!

Was that really a radish or was it daikon? It was a huge cube if it was an ordinary radish and she thought it was bland 🤔

I thought daikon

They must've thought the contestants would make absolute pillocks of themselves if they couldn't see the red ketchup

Well Joe did that anyway so!!!

LaMarschallin · 25/08/2026 21:34

"Strawberry? What??"
Yup, that craaaaaazy rare fruit...🙄

@viques yes I’m sure there are kebabs and kebabs, but how do you know what’s good and what’s rubbish?

why don’t they give them all the same food to taste.Some have textures which help with identity.

That must have been a very indifferent strawberry.

I thought mouli because of the size

Agree how was that a regular radish. Mind you...yer man said the strawberry was bland amd watery and nowt like a strawberry so.....

lettingthedaysgoby · 25/08/2026 21:35

Some of these (the strawberry, 'radish' & the mango) seem quite unripe, so will have little flavour

Oh sorry! Not sure why I am quoting bungobungobungo!

Eyeroll.

In which case <pedant alert> they should have called it daikon! Most people in the UK think radishes are the small round red things you grow for their extremely peppery flavour!

I'm one of them. You couldn't mistake a regular radish

No idea!😀

@viquesyou can quote me any time you like! 😀

TomTit was "always good at copying/" Bet the teachers all loved him

Same with me.

bungobungobungo · 25/08/2026 21:41

No egg in drawer this time thankfully.

Halsall · 25/08/2026 21:41

There’s no more Mr Nice Guy when Giorgio does his master class, is there?

At least none of the eggs has ended up in the drawer this week.

(ETA - snap with bungo!)

Poor drawer probably feels left out!!

It had its fifteen minutes of fame.

Sunbird24 · 25/08/2026 21:47

I can’t be doing with making pasta either when I can buy it

TheDogsMother · 25/08/2026 21:49

Life is too short to be making pasta. I honestly think some of the quality dried ones are better.

Fransgran · 25/08/2026 21:49

Poor Eric. If he doesn't know a whisk from a ladle, why did he sign up? Giorgio really shouted at him

Halsall · 25/08/2026 21:50

Elevated - it must be written into their contracts!

I very much dislike people claiming to give something more than 100% so maybe I should join @Halsall in Pedants' Corner
