1
00:00:00,540 --> 00:00:01,640
I'm Bobby Flay.
2
00:00:01,920 --> 00:00:04,150
Each week, one brave chef will try to
3
00:00:04,160 --> 00:00:05,640
take me down in my house.
4
00:00:05,720 --> 00:00:06,600
This is my show.
5
00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:07,380
Today it is.
6
00:00:07,440 --> 00:00:08,220
Tomorrow, who knows?
7
00:00:08,540 --> 00:00:09,700
Oh, trash talking.
8
00:00:09,980 --> 00:00:11,950
This culinary battle is gonna shake down
9
00:00:11,960 --> 00:00:12,760
in two rounds.
10
00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:15,070
Round one, to get to me, two contenders
11
00:00:15,080 --> 00:00:16,930
have to go through each other using an
12
00:00:16,940 --> 00:00:18,480
ingredient of my choice.
13
00:00:18,660 --> 00:00:19,680
It's do or die, Bobby.
14
00:00:19,860 --> 00:00:21,910
Two people that know me well will decide
15
00:00:21,920 --> 00:00:23,600
who's got the skills to beat me.
16
00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:26,350
Peter! Round two, I go head-to-head with
17
00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:27,320
the winning contender.
18
00:00:27,460 --> 00:00:29,690
Let's go! It's their turn to surprise me
19
00:00:29,700 --> 00:00:31,180
with their signature dish.
20
00:00:31,340 --> 00:00:33,720
What? Don't try this at home.
21
00:00:33,780 --> 00:00:35,280
I know you did it, Bobby!
22
00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:37,930
Bottom line... You're gonna run it in
23
00:00:37,940 --> 00:00:40,260
two! Everyone's out to beat me.
24
00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:46,120
You all ready for a good time?
25
00:00:46,540 --> 00:00:50,950
Go! Here to tease, distract, and throw me
26
00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:53,330
off, it's Food Network's DeMaris Phillips
27
00:00:53,340 --> 00:00:55,060
and Christian Petroni.
28
00:00:55,100 --> 00:00:56,960
Five, six, seven, eight.
29
00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:06,180
What is that move?
30
00:01:06,460 --> 00:01:07,980
We're still workshopping it?
31
00:01:08,320 --> 00:01:10,150
In my defense, I didn't get the
32
00:01:10,160 --> 00:01:11,580
choreography till this morning.
33
00:01:14,220 --> 00:01:17,650
So Christian and I were thinking that we
34
00:01:17,660 --> 00:01:19,660
might do a little Bobby rebrand.
35
00:01:20,020 --> 00:01:21,410
Really? We're gonna start with like
36
00:01:21,420 --> 00:01:23,760
nicknames. What about Babo?
37
00:01:24,260 --> 00:01:25,010
No, that's what you...
38
00:01:25,020 --> 00:01:25,590
What's up, Babo?
39
00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:26,390
That's what you call me.
40
00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:27,260
Okay, okay, okay, okay.
41
00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:27,870
How about Rob?
42
00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:29,360
No. Okay, okay.
43
00:01:29,460 --> 00:01:31,160
What about Flayah?
44
00:01:32,380 --> 00:01:34,000
Like Flayr, but with Flay?
45
00:01:34,500 --> 00:01:36,140
He's a Flayah!
46
00:01:36,860 --> 00:01:39,100
It works! I'm always gonna be Bobby.
47
00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:39,910
We'll see.
48
00:01:41,380 --> 00:01:43,350
You've got some very stiff competition
49
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:45,040
tonight. So don't get flazy.
50
00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:48,120
That got me.
51
00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:48,910
That was good.
52
00:01:50,060 --> 00:01:52,490
Our first contender is a proud Native
53
00:01:52,500 --> 00:01:54,510
American chef. And she's ready to put
54
00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:56,310
Indigenous cuisine on the map.
55
00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:59,700
From Los Angeles, California, chef Piat,
56
00:01:59,740 --> 00:02:00,320
the Spain.
57
00:02:08,070 --> 00:02:10,590
Our next contender has mastered Korean
58
00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:13,260
cuisine under your friend, Esther Choi.
59
00:02:13,460 --> 00:02:16,630
Legend. Legend. Tonight she's ready to
60
00:02:16,640 --> 00:02:18,750
step out of her mentor's shadow and take
61
00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:19,980
you down herself.
62
00:02:20,220 --> 00:02:23,520
From New York City, chef Gil-Gi Chung.
63
00:02:28,760 --> 00:02:30,580
You're going down, Bobby.
64
00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:36,500
Piat, Gil-Gi, how are you guys doing?
65
00:02:36,760 --> 00:02:38,600
Yeah. Great. Nice to see you.
66
00:02:38,820 --> 00:02:39,720
Here's the way it's gonna work.
67
00:02:40,020 --> 00:02:41,420
I'm gonna put 20 minutes on the clock.
68
00:02:41,760 --> 00:02:43,250
I'm gonna give you an ingredient of my
69
00:02:43,260 --> 00:02:45,390
choice. And you must make that ingredient
70
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:46,500
the star of your dish.
71
00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:48,400
And that ingredient is...
72
00:02:50,100 --> 00:02:51,560
Rainbow Trout. All right.
73
00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:54,630
That's a great ingredient.
74
00:02:54,640 --> 00:02:57,700
I actually don't work with trout at all.
75
00:02:58,020 --> 00:03:00,590
I'm a prairie native, so we actually use
76
00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:02,340
a lot of bison, venison.
77
00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:04,940
All right, guys, 20 minutes on the clock.
78
00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:07,440
Don't pout over the rainbow trout.
79
00:03:15,100 --> 00:03:17,200
Rainbow trout. What would you do here?
80
00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:19,260
You know, my favorite is smoked trout.
81
00:03:19,420 --> 00:03:21,660
It's so thin, it would cook very quickly.
82
00:03:21,780 --> 00:03:23,570
And the texture is so flaky and tender.
83
00:03:23,580 --> 00:03:25,630
I love the way she's prior roasting the
84
00:03:25,640 --> 00:03:26,380
corn and the peppers.
85
00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:28,630
With that being said, why don't I head in
86
00:03:28,640 --> 00:03:33,440
there? Chef! Hello.
87
00:03:33,660 --> 00:03:34,210
How you doing?
88
00:03:34,260 --> 00:03:35,480
I'm good. How are you?
89
00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:36,860
It's already smelling good over here.
90
00:03:36,940 --> 00:03:37,780
You're roasting some peppers.
91
00:03:38,100 --> 00:03:39,970
Piat is using ingredients that I'm used
92
00:03:39,980 --> 00:03:41,550
to using. There's a lot of Southwest
93
00:03:41,560 --> 00:03:44,350
America there. My strategy is to bring
94
00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:46,070
both of my cultural heritage, Native
95
00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:48,210
American and Mexican American, and fusing
96
00:03:48,220 --> 00:03:51,030
them together. So I'm gonna do a pescado
97
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:53,310
serrendiado. It's made with a bunch of
98
00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:55,320
chiles. It has a nice little punch to it.
99
00:03:55,580 --> 00:03:57,130
The arbol is going to give it that nice
100
00:03:57,140 --> 00:03:58,260
spice that you need.
101
00:03:58,360 --> 00:03:59,910
And the guajillo and ancho are going to
102
00:03:59,920 --> 00:04:01,660
give it that really nice smokiness.
103
00:04:01,880 --> 00:04:03,520
We cook with our hands around here.
104
00:04:05,140 --> 00:04:06,770
I'm a member of the Prairie Bend
105
00:04:06,780 --> 00:04:08,340
Pottawana Mi Nation tribe.
106
00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:10,630
My goal is to always highlight my culture
107
00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:11,680
first and foremost.
108
00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:14,650
After I graduated culinary school, I
109
00:04:14,660 --> 00:04:16,120
started my private chef business.
110
00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:19,030
I worked my way up to being named the top
111
00:04:19,040 --> 00:04:21,050
25 private chefs in Los Angeles by
112
00:04:21,060 --> 00:04:23,750
Entrepreneur Magazine. Tonight, I'm here
113
00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:26,030
to represent Indigenous and Mexican
114
00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:27,800
American female chefs.
115
00:04:28,220 --> 00:04:30,490
Bobby, buckle up buttercup, because I'm
116
00:04:30,500 --> 00:04:31,740
on my way to beat your butt.
117
00:04:33,140 --> 00:04:34,310
Hello, young lady.
118
00:04:34,320 --> 00:04:37,470
Hello. LG is Esther Choi's chef-de
119
00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:39,490
-cuisine. Esther's already competed in
120
00:04:39,500 --> 00:04:41,730
this arena a few times, so now she's
121
00:04:41,740 --> 00:04:42,820
sending in her disciples.
122
00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:46,090
They're very strong women and amazing
123
00:04:46,100 --> 00:04:46,860
chefs. Yeah.
124
00:04:48,120 --> 00:04:51,290
After I worked in Korea, I moved to the
125
00:04:51,300 --> 00:04:53,850
States and worked as executive chef with
126
00:04:53,860 --> 00:04:55,810
Esther Choi, and then I became culinary
127
00:04:55,820 --> 00:04:57,020
director of her team.
128
00:04:57,640 --> 00:04:59,700
I'm always a behind-the-scenes chef.
129
00:04:59,880 --> 00:05:03,010
I never got to show who really I am, not
130
00:05:03,020 --> 00:05:04,610
as a team, so...
131
00:05:04,620 --> 00:05:06,530
Meeting Chef Bobby is going to be a big
132
00:05:06,540 --> 00:05:09,410
turning point for me, so...
133
00:05:09,420 --> 00:05:11,820
Yay! What are you working on?
134
00:05:12,020 --> 00:05:15,450
I'm making crispy skin trout with soy
135
00:05:15,460 --> 00:05:16,750
gochujang braised potatoes.
136
00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:18,300
With a kimchi gramolata.
137
00:05:18,940 --> 00:05:21,070
I am infusing all the flavor in the
138
00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:23,390
potato because I don't want to overpower
139
00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:25,020
the fish with any other ingredients.
140
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:28,030
So I'm making my soy braised liquid with
141
00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:31,170
scallion, onion, ginger, gochujang, brown
142
00:05:31,180 --> 00:05:32,600
sugar, and mirin.
143
00:05:32,740 --> 00:05:33,650
And then I'm going to serve it with
144
00:05:33,660 --> 00:05:36,220
kimchi gramolata. It's chopped kimchi,
145
00:05:36,620 --> 00:05:38,120
parsley, lemon zest.
146
00:05:38,440 --> 00:05:40,170
I'm going to bring crunch and acidity for
147
00:05:40,180 --> 00:05:41,650
my plate. Bobby, you're going to make Bob
148
00:05:41,660 --> 00:05:43,320
cry? He hasn't seen me that side yet.
149
00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:45,430
I know you got this.
150
00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:47,640
We got 13 minutes left.
151
00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:51,550
I take a look at my chilies, and I see
152
00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:53,000
that they are all very soft.
153
00:05:53,320 --> 00:05:55,590
I'm adding some fresh garlic and charred
154
00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:58,210
onion. What I need is a nice, spreadable
155
00:05:58,220 --> 00:06:00,390
chile paste. I just need four good
156
00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:03,630
pieces. I want to be very weary of all of
157
00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:05,770
those little pin bones, so I slice them
158
00:06:05,780 --> 00:06:08,560
off as cleanly as I possibly can.
159
00:06:09,580 --> 00:06:11,720
Ilji has out her little tweezers.
160
00:06:12,060 --> 00:06:13,840
I need to see what's going on in there,
161
00:06:13,900 --> 00:06:15,600
gentlemen. 10 minutes left.
162
00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:21,200
Wow, I see with those little pin bones,
163
00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:22,680
that's the scariest part.
164
00:06:22,840 --> 00:06:24,700
And probably the most time-consuming.
165
00:06:24,820 --> 00:06:26,310
I don't want to give you guys any pin
166
00:06:26,320 --> 00:06:28,420
bones. How do you feel about Piet?
167
00:06:28,700 --> 00:06:30,100
I've never heard about her before.
168
00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:33,840
You finna find out today, sweet horse.
169
00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:35,140
All right.
170
00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:38,720
Piet, how's it going over here?
171
00:06:38,740 --> 00:06:41,710
It's good. In here, you have dried
172
00:06:41,720 --> 00:06:43,160
chilies. I have a little bit of acid,
173
00:06:43,280 --> 00:06:44,780
honey, salt, garlic.
174
00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:47,820
Oh. This is lovely.
175
00:06:48,260 --> 00:06:50,020
And this just caramelizes right on there.
176
00:06:50,100 --> 00:06:52,360
Yep. And how are you feeling about Ilji?
177
00:06:52,600 --> 00:06:54,650
She's got some big names behind her, and
178
00:06:54,660 --> 00:06:55,990
I'm really happy that she's here, but
179
00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:57,520
I'll be even happier when I beat her.
180
00:06:57,620 --> 00:07:02,280
Oh! Just under five minutes.
181
00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:06,830
I'm pan-searing the trout skin side down
182
00:07:06,840 --> 00:07:09,720
to make the skin perfectly crispy.
183
00:07:10,360 --> 00:07:13,280
I really enjoy cooking over open fire.
184
00:07:13,660 --> 00:07:15,740
It just adds a nice smokiness.
185
00:07:16,180 --> 00:07:19,470
40 seconds. My bell pepper and my corn
186
00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:20,400
are nice and cold.
187
00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:22,050
I can get them cut up and into my
188
00:07:22,060 --> 00:07:23,040
hydrocrust salad.
189
00:07:24,080 --> 00:07:26,870
I put down soy gochujang braised potato
190
00:07:26,880 --> 00:07:28,820
first, then put the trout.
191
00:07:30,020 --> 00:07:32,740
Ten, nine, eight.
192
00:07:33,140 --> 00:07:34,540
I top with kimchi granola.
193
00:07:35,100 --> 00:07:36,330
Five, six, seven, eight.
194
00:07:36,340 --> 00:07:39,780
Four, three, two, one.
195
00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:42,960
Whoo! Good job.
196
00:07:44,340 --> 00:07:46,040
Good job. There you go, chef.
197
00:07:46,980 --> 00:07:48,220
That was fun.
198
00:07:48,740 --> 00:07:51,550
I am so excited for them to try this
199
00:07:51,560 --> 00:07:54,220
dish, but also feeling a little nervous.
200
00:07:55,200 --> 00:07:58,350
It looks so sloppy, but I know flavor is
201
00:07:58,360 --> 00:08:03,160
there. Chef
202
00:08:07,360 --> 00:08:08,640
Ilji, what did you make?
203
00:08:09,140 --> 00:08:11,850
I made crispy skin trout soy and
204
00:08:11,860 --> 00:08:13,770
gochujang braised potato and kimchi
205
00:08:13,780 --> 00:08:17,540
granola. There's a ton of flavor here,
206
00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:20,490
and you manage to get a gorgeous shatter
207
00:08:20,500 --> 00:08:21,300
on the skin.
208
00:08:21,780 --> 00:08:24,190
And the kimchi granola is very nicely
209
00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:26,690
done, but the dish itself is reading
210
00:08:26,700 --> 00:08:29,730
pretty sweet. It really needs some salt
211
00:08:29,740 --> 00:08:30,460
to balance it.
212
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:33,750
Overall flavors, you want to keep going
213
00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:37,430
back in and spearing a piece of fish with
214
00:08:37,440 --> 00:08:39,770
some of that kimchi granola and into a
215
00:08:39,780 --> 00:08:41,420
potato. It makes for a great bite.
216
00:08:42,060 --> 00:08:43,080
Piat, what did you make?
217
00:08:43,440 --> 00:08:46,310
I made a pescado zirandeado with a
218
00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:48,630
hydrochrysalad with some charred peppers
219
00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:49,640
and corn.
220
00:08:50,940 --> 00:08:52,220
Piat, this dish is lovely.
221
00:08:52,740 --> 00:08:55,800
The sauce on there, that cooked on rub,
222
00:08:56,100 --> 00:08:57,730
it's the right sauce to kind of elevate
223
00:08:57,740 --> 00:08:59,580
that real earthy flavor of trout.
224
00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:02,150
And carrying that grill and char flavor
225
00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:04,700
sort of all the way through, very smart.
226
00:09:05,080 --> 00:09:06,220
I have a couple of pin bones.
227
00:09:06,780 --> 00:09:08,290
It's 20 minutes, and there's a whole
228
00:09:08,300 --> 00:09:09,120
fish. It's hard.
229
00:09:10,060 --> 00:09:12,310
Christian and I have a tough decision on
230
00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:13,580
our hands if you'll give us a moment.
231
00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:16,390
Although there are a few pin bones that
232
00:09:16,400 --> 00:09:18,030
are still stuck in the place, I'm really
233
00:09:18,040 --> 00:09:20,430
feeling confident because they like the
234
00:09:20,440 --> 00:09:21,560
rainbow trout that I made.
235
00:09:22,020 --> 00:09:24,760
The chef moving forward tonight is...
236
00:09:27,940 --> 00:09:28,900
Chef Ilji.
237
00:09:30,300 --> 00:09:34,630
Ilji. No! I was looking forward to
238
00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:37,340
beating Bobby. Beat him!
239
00:09:37,780 --> 00:09:40,160
I'm happy for Ilji.
240
00:09:40,460 --> 00:09:42,720
I hope that she beats him.
241
00:09:43,300 --> 00:09:45,470
Ilji, in 20 minutes, you were able to
242
00:09:45,480 --> 00:09:49,250
deliver a plate of food that feels like
243
00:09:49,260 --> 00:09:50,440
you spent hours on it.
244
00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:52,850
The layers of flavor are what are going
245
00:09:52,860 --> 00:09:54,360
to be required to be, you know,
246
00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:56,380
Robby-o.
247
00:10:04,360 --> 00:10:05,820
Congratulations on round one.
248
00:10:05,980 --> 00:10:07,530
Thank you. How do you feel about standing
249
00:10:07,540 --> 00:10:09,980
here now? Esther gave a message.
250
00:10:10,380 --> 00:10:11,770
Good luck because you're going to need
251
00:10:11,780 --> 00:10:12,560
it. Really?
252
00:10:14,140 --> 00:10:15,950
All right, so what are we cooking
253
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:17,660
tonight? What is your signature dish?
254
00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:20,040
So my signature dish is...
255
00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:24,680
Kimbab. Kimbab.
256
00:10:25,980 --> 00:10:27,990
Bobby's going to have a hard time with
257
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:30,710
that one. Ilji, Bobby has no idea what
258
00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:32,470
he's doing. He's never been challenged to
259
00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:33,320
this dish before.
260
00:10:33,580 --> 00:10:35,040
It's like you already lost.
261
00:10:35,900 --> 00:10:37,240
No, I have that feeling.
262
00:10:37,980 --> 00:10:40,640
45 minutes on the clock, time starts now.
263
00:10:49,500 --> 00:10:52,310
A lot of times people call kimbab Korean
264
00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:54,930
sushi. It is a roll and the ingredients
265
00:10:54,940 --> 00:10:57,550
on the inside are usually cooked or
266
00:10:57,560 --> 00:10:59,830
preserved instead of raw, like you see in
267
00:10:59,840 --> 00:11:01,240
like a sushi roll.
268
00:11:01,560 --> 00:11:03,850
The rice is usually a little denser than
269
00:11:03,860 --> 00:11:06,430
typical sushi and sesame oil in it, so
270
00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:08,330
it's got a little bit of fatiness to it.
271
00:11:08,340 --> 00:11:11,030
Really great. Ilji, why'd you choose this
272
00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:13,820
dish? It brings me my childhood, my mom,
273
00:11:13,980 --> 00:11:15,120
made for breakfast a lot.
274
00:11:15,620 --> 00:11:17,810
I've eaten kimbap since I was a baby, so
275
00:11:17,820 --> 00:11:20,720
I've eaten probably 100,000 rolls.
276
00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:23,090
I'm going to serve three different
277
00:11:23,100 --> 00:11:25,970
kimbaps today. Bulgogi kimbap, spicy pork
278
00:11:25,980 --> 00:11:27,190
and egg on egg roll.
279
00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:30,210
Eating Chef Bobby means achieving another
280
00:11:30,220 --> 00:11:32,770
level of life and career, so I'm just
281
00:11:32,780 --> 00:11:35,940
excited. I suspect that Bobby is going to
282
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:38,720
accidentally make it too fancy.
283
00:11:39,900 --> 00:11:41,620
I've never done this dish before.
284
00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:42,490
It's not something I've ever eaten
285
00:11:42,500 --> 00:11:43,780
before. I've heard about it.
286
00:11:44,020 --> 00:11:46,470
Bobby's already pulled out wagyu filet
287
00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:47,520
mignon over here.
288
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:48,470
It's like, what are you doing to carry
289
00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:49,440
our coming out next?
290
00:11:49,780 --> 00:11:51,200
I'm making two flavors.
291
00:11:51,500 --> 00:11:53,620
The first is bulgogi, which is beef,
292
00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:55,470
asparagus and shiitake mushrooms.
293
00:11:55,480 --> 00:11:57,480
And then I'm making one with crab,
294
00:11:57,680 --> 00:11:59,900
avocado, kimchi and salmon caviar.
295
00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:03,150
So the beef tenderloin has a marinade of
296
00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:06,110
sake and soy and sesame oil, honey and
297
00:12:06,120 --> 00:12:08,600
goji jam. All right, guys, 35 minutes.
298
00:12:11,100 --> 00:12:13,490
LG, LG. Hello, hello.
299
00:12:13,500 --> 00:12:15,530
So excited. What are the different ones
300
00:12:15,540 --> 00:12:18,290
you're doing? Bulgogi stuffed one, spicy
301
00:12:18,300 --> 00:12:20,080
pork and egg kimbap.
302
00:12:20,340 --> 00:12:22,040
The one just classic with the ham.
303
00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:25,730
Beautiful. After I sliced my bulgogi, I
304
00:12:25,740 --> 00:12:28,000
put in a bulgogi marinade, soy sauce,
305
00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:31,020
sugar, sesame oil, garlic, mirin.
306
00:12:31,580 --> 00:12:33,970
I'm also slicing pork tenderloin so it
307
00:12:33,980 --> 00:12:36,620
can start marinating in garlic, sugar,
308
00:12:37,100 --> 00:12:39,240
mirin, and also goji jam.
309
00:12:39,420 --> 00:12:41,100
So it has a little kick to it.
310
00:12:41,180 --> 00:12:42,360
All right, chef, keep going.
311
00:12:43,540 --> 00:12:45,000
Little bulgogi? Yeah.
312
00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:47,890
So are you doing one and having different
313
00:12:47,900 --> 00:12:49,630
aspects into it, or are you gonna do
314
00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:51,010
multiple bulgogi? I'm gonna try, I'm
315
00:12:51,020 --> 00:12:52,000
gonna try to do two.
316
00:12:52,300 --> 00:12:53,290
What else going on?
317
00:12:53,300 --> 00:12:53,980
Everything good with you?
318
00:12:54,360 --> 00:12:55,530
When we hanging out, we don't hang out no
319
00:12:55,540 --> 00:12:57,800
more. I keep calling you.
320
00:12:58,080 --> 00:12:58,730
Can you finish it?
321
00:12:58,740 --> 00:12:59,540
Did you change your number?
322
00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:01,300
Oh. Oh.
323
00:13:03,420 --> 00:13:04,860
Okay, I dropped an egg.
324
00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:05,560
It's gonna be fine.
325
00:13:05,820 --> 00:13:07,400
You see how nervous I make this guy?
326
00:13:08,720 --> 00:13:09,560
Get out of here.
327
00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:11,390
All right, guys, make some noise if you
328
00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:13,000
want LG to take this today.
329
00:13:14,280 --> 00:13:19,080
CHEERING If you want Bobby to take it,
330
00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:19,920
make some noise.
331
00:13:21,860 --> 00:13:22,460
CIRCLE BELL RINGING
332
00:13:23,560 --> 00:13:25,300
Oh my God, that's embarrassing.
333
00:13:26,740 --> 00:13:28,000
All right, Bob.
334
00:13:28,120 --> 00:13:29,160
I love you either way, babe.
335
00:13:30,940 --> 00:13:35,540
CHEERING You have 20 minutes to go.
336
00:13:36,380 --> 00:13:41,180
CHEERING No, LG's
337
00:13:41,500 --> 00:13:43,330
sort of put it up like the greatest hits
338
00:13:43,340 --> 00:13:43,910
of Kimbops, you know?
339
00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:46,370
Yeah, exactly. Bobby's Kimbops sort of
340
00:13:46,380 --> 00:13:48,790
reminds me of like a kimbap that you
341
00:13:48,800 --> 00:13:51,310
would get at like a country club in
342
00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:53,140
Greenwich, Connecticut. Palais mignon,
343
00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:54,790
mushrooms asparagus, like...
344
00:13:54,800 --> 00:13:56,940
He does feel a little French-inspired.
345
00:13:57,280 --> 00:13:58,750
Hey, Yoji, what's that white liquid in
346
00:13:58,760 --> 00:14:01,070
those containers? Oh, I blended garlic
347
00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:02,910
with mirin. Are you making a dipping
348
00:14:02,920 --> 00:14:05,490
sauce? Yes. So I'm starting my dipping
349
00:14:05,500 --> 00:14:08,580
sauces. Spicy gochujang sauce for pork,
350
00:14:08,940 --> 00:14:12,230
mustard vinaigrette for egg kimbap, and
351
00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:14,660
gochujang mayo for bulgogi kimbap.
352
00:14:14,780 --> 00:14:16,800
And then it's time to cook my proteins.
353
00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:19,100
Ilji, ilji, ilji.
354
00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:21,280
I'm dying to see what's happening.
355
00:14:21,560 --> 00:14:22,860
Your rice, is it okay if I try this?
356
00:14:22,900 --> 00:14:23,450
Yes, of course.
357
00:14:24,280 --> 00:14:25,980
Mmm. It's delicious.
358
00:14:26,420 --> 00:14:28,970
So all of your food is cooked pretty
359
00:14:28,980 --> 00:14:30,500
much. You're ready to roll.
360
00:14:30,660 --> 00:14:33,670
Yes. First, I laid down my nori and a
361
00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:34,420
little bit of rice.
362
00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:36,700
I love to have my rice really thin.
363
00:14:36,840 --> 00:14:39,300
So all other stuffing can shine.
364
00:14:39,760 --> 00:14:41,940
I'm going to add pickled daikon,
365
00:14:42,100 --> 00:14:45,170
cucumber, eggs, and carrots for base of
366
00:14:45,180 --> 00:14:46,310
every single kimbap.
367
00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:48,710
And I'm sealing the kimbap with the water
368
00:14:48,720 --> 00:14:50,620
so two nori stick together.
369
00:14:54,060 --> 00:14:55,990
So I'm making a dipping sauce that has
370
00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:59,260
gochujang, sesame oil, soy sauce, honey,
371
00:14:59,580 --> 00:15:01,290
toasted sesame seeds, and some Dijon
372
00:15:01,300 --> 00:15:03,260
mustard. Well, how's it going over here,
373
00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:07,920
Bobby? Okay, good talking.
374
00:15:08,840 --> 00:15:10,750
You can always tell when Bobby's in,
375
00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:13,490
like, a little bit of trouble because he
376
00:15:13,500 --> 00:15:14,410
will not talk.
377
00:15:14,420 --> 00:15:16,030
Even when I'm like, Bobby, what are we
378
00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:17,300
doing? Do you want to be friends?
379
00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:18,650
How's your... How...
380
00:15:18,660 --> 00:15:21,140
I need to get the rolls rolled.
381
00:15:21,580 --> 00:15:23,270
There's the beef, the shiitake, and the
382
00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:25,300
asparagus. Okay, I'll be Bobby right now.
383
00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:27,840
Okay, guys, I don't want to look bad,
384
00:15:27,900 --> 00:15:29,390
especially because Damaris and Patronia
385
00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:30,890
are here. They're, like, so cool, and I
386
00:15:30,900 --> 00:15:32,260
just really want to be friends with them.
387
00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:35,740
Oh! Also, Ilji's a sick chef.
388
00:15:36,120 --> 00:15:37,780
Damaris is definitely being distracting,
389
00:15:37,880 --> 00:15:39,250
but I'm not actually paying attention to
390
00:15:39,260 --> 00:15:39,980
her because I can't.
391
00:15:40,100 --> 00:15:40,870
It's all here.
392
00:15:40,880 --> 00:15:41,680
You can do this.
393
00:15:42,140 --> 00:15:43,060
Beach and tool.
394
00:15:43,560 --> 00:15:45,440
No, a little bit more pressure.
395
00:15:45,580 --> 00:15:47,380
A little pr- Show it who's boss, Bobby.
396
00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:49,360
Show it who's boss.
397
00:15:49,580 --> 00:15:51,050
When I haven't done a dish like this
398
00:15:51,060 --> 00:15:52,990
before, especially when it takes a
399
00:15:53,000 --> 00:15:54,770
technique like rolling, I get very
400
00:15:54,780 --> 00:15:55,600
nervous about that.
401
00:15:55,720 --> 00:15:57,190
A little bit squirting out, but that's to
402
00:15:57,200 --> 00:16:00,170
be expected. While you work on the...
403
00:16:00,180 --> 00:16:01,660
Oh. Poor Bobby.
404
00:16:02,340 --> 00:16:04,450
I just... I'm going to let you do you
405
00:16:04,460 --> 00:16:06,290
over there. I'm going to talk to the
406
00:16:06,300 --> 00:16:08,470
crowd. We're coming up with Bobby's new
407
00:16:08,480 --> 00:16:10,250
nickname. We're going to vote, okay?
408
00:16:10,260 --> 00:16:12,960
Do we, like, Burt or Birdie?
409
00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:16,600
Neither. Nobody like that.
410
00:16:16,620 --> 00:16:18,700
Okay. Let me hear it for Bobbinator.
411
00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:22,860
Let me hear it for BabaCon!
412
00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:29,110
Uh, it's like we got to just kind of keep
413
00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:30,040
working on it.
414
00:16:30,120 --> 00:16:31,080
16 minutes!
415
00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:35,650
How's Bobby's Philly Cheesecake Kimbap
416
00:16:35,660 --> 00:16:37,890
coming along? Um, you know, Bobby's
417
00:16:37,900 --> 00:16:39,340
having a little bit of trouble rolling.
418
00:16:40,220 --> 00:16:43,690
There's a naturalness to Il G's rolling
419
00:16:43,700 --> 00:16:46,170
-ever Kimbap. I did the internship for
420
00:16:46,180 --> 00:16:48,890
three months. Every single weekend, I was
421
00:16:48,900 --> 00:16:50,540
rolling hundreds of Kimbaps.
422
00:16:50,660 --> 00:16:51,840
So I know how to do it.
423
00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:54,150
I can sort of feel for Bob right now,
424
00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:57,090
right? If the act of rolling is not
425
00:16:57,100 --> 00:16:59,750
something that you're doing normally, if
426
00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:02,520
ever, it can be intimidating, right?
427
00:17:02,580 --> 00:17:04,080
Like, it's... And it's so important.
428
00:17:04,340 --> 00:17:05,800
For under 10 minutes.
429
00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:09,290
I feel like, as I'm doing it, I don't
430
00:17:09,300 --> 00:17:10,400
really think I'm getting better.
431
00:17:10,800 --> 00:17:12,150
I mean, I'm completely outside of my
432
00:17:12,160 --> 00:17:14,860
comfort zone. So Il G is not using a mat,
433
00:17:15,020 --> 00:17:17,010
and I feel like outside of the fact that
434
00:17:17,020 --> 00:17:18,540
she's probably made a million of these,
435
00:17:18,980 --> 00:17:21,290
that it's actually easier to roll without
436
00:17:21,300 --> 00:17:22,910
having that sort of bamboo mat.
437
00:17:22,920 --> 00:17:23,600
That's what I think.
438
00:17:23,660 --> 00:17:24,820
I've never used a mat.
439
00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:26,360
I think Bobby's feeling the pressure.
440
00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:28,580
Bobby is in the weeds right now.
441
00:17:28,980 --> 00:17:30,630
If I don't get these rolled, there's no
442
00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:35,100
dish. Eight minutes!
443
00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:38,350
Bobby is having a lot of struggle with
444
00:17:38,360 --> 00:17:40,360
the rolling. The rolling part is hard.
445
00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:41,880
I think I'm over stuffing the rolls.
446
00:17:42,220 --> 00:17:43,730
Looks like it's gonna be a disaster, but
447
00:17:43,740 --> 00:17:44,880
I get it to close.
448
00:17:45,660 --> 00:17:47,490
For the crab, I have some cucumber, I
449
00:17:47,500 --> 00:17:49,010
have some avocado, I put a little egg in
450
00:17:49,020 --> 00:17:49,760
there, some kimchi.
451
00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:52,040
You see that, right?
452
00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:53,540
Now she's just flexing.
453
00:17:53,880 --> 00:17:55,780
100%. Just under five minutes.
454
00:17:56,700 --> 00:17:59,110
So I'm going to play first my bulgogi
455
00:17:59,120 --> 00:18:01,830
kimbap next to my bulgogi mayo, and then
456
00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:05,320
my spicy pork, and then the egg kimbap.
457
00:18:05,580 --> 00:18:07,720
There's a minute and 25 seconds left.
458
00:18:08,860 --> 00:18:10,520
So I'm going to slice up the rolls.
459
00:18:10,780 --> 00:18:12,750
I take one of each one, put it on a
460
00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:15,030
plate. I put some salmon caviar on top of
461
00:18:15,040 --> 00:18:16,910
the crab one, green onions with the
462
00:18:16,920 --> 00:18:18,720
sesame seeds on top of the beef one.
463
00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:22,190
Ten, nine, eight, seven.
464
00:18:22,820 --> 00:18:24,090
My dipping sauce next to it.
465
00:18:24,100 --> 00:18:28,380
Five, four, three, two, one.
466
00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:33,860
Awesome. Look at that, man.
467
00:18:34,360 --> 00:18:37,090
Beautiful. I'm just happy that I got them
468
00:18:37,100 --> 00:18:39,460
done. Like, to me, that's my victory.
469
00:18:41,880 --> 00:18:44,070
Bobby Ilge, we'd like to introduce you to
470
00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:46,730
the judges. First up, James Beard Award
471
00:18:46,740 --> 00:18:49,410
winner and the chef owner of Sly Fox, Den
472
00:18:49,420 --> 00:18:51,740
2, Sherry Pocknett.
473
00:18:51,980 --> 00:18:54,690
Chef owner of Nguyen Restaurants, Jay
474
00:18:54,700 --> 00:18:58,270
Lee. James Beard nominated chef and cook
475
00:18:58,280 --> 00:18:58,530
owner of Nguyen restaurant, cookbook
476
00:18:58,540 --> 00:19:00,100
author Adrian Cheetham.
477
00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:03,390
Judges, please start with the first
478
00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:04,480
kimbap in front of you.
479
00:19:10,380 --> 00:19:12,950
The bulgogi roll, the beef was really
480
00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:17,090
tender and you get that nice contrast of
481
00:19:17,100 --> 00:19:18,940
flavors and textures in both of them.
482
00:19:19,220 --> 00:19:21,010
I love the dipping sauce, the gochujang
483
00:19:21,020 --> 00:19:22,710
in there, but the rice was under
484
00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:25,150
seasoned. The sauce was a little on the
485
00:19:25,160 --> 00:19:27,150
spicy side, but it was delicious.
486
00:19:27,160 --> 00:19:29,180
Would like to have another one.
487
00:19:29,740 --> 00:19:30,820
Please, switch your plates.
488
00:19:36,740 --> 00:19:40,440
I really love the flavors of each one.
489
00:19:40,740 --> 00:19:42,660
The rice is cooked perfectly.
490
00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:44,460
It's just past al dente.
491
00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:45,760
I love it.
492
00:19:45,860 --> 00:19:47,700
They're very homey, traditional feel.
493
00:19:47,980 --> 00:19:49,580
I think of my upbringing, my childhood.
494
00:19:50,040 --> 00:19:52,170
However, the beef had its own seasoning
495
00:19:52,180 --> 00:19:53,520
that really stood out.
496
00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:55,230
The pork had its own seasoning that
497
00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:55,790
really stood out.
498
00:19:55,800 --> 00:19:57,570
The egg as well should have had its own
499
00:19:57,580 --> 00:19:59,410
seasoning that made the egg kimbap stand
500
00:19:59,420 --> 00:20:03,020
out. All of these sauces were delicious.
501
00:20:03,420 --> 00:20:05,670
The rice was perfectly cooked and the
502
00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:07,440
sauce matched very well with it.
503
00:20:08,080 --> 00:20:09,640
Judges, cast your votes.
504
00:20:11,980 --> 00:20:14,310
Chef Bobby's dish was also really good
505
00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:16,730
and they wanted some more, some little
506
00:20:16,740 --> 00:20:18,700
nervous. Good luck, chef.
507
00:20:19,820 --> 00:20:21,880
And the winner is...
508
00:20:24,540 --> 00:20:25,760
Chef Ilji!
509
00:20:28,100 --> 00:20:31,260
My proudest culinary moment is today.
510
00:20:31,480 --> 00:20:34,070
I broke out of the show and you'll see me
511
00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:34,840
more often.
512
00:20:35,880 --> 00:20:37,180
The technique is...
