Guess the Spices to Cook Fried Chicken With | Top Chef: Kentucky

The chefs had to cook fried chicken using their own spice blends; however, in order to obtain their spices, the contestants first had to correctly identify them through a blindfolded taste test. The winner received US$5,000. Beginning with this challenge, immunity from elimination was no longer available as a reward. The guest judge for the challenge was chef Art Smith.

[@superhotnutjob]

what happened?

[@anairenemartinez165]

The show is totally new to me, I heard it from someone. So, I am ignorant of the premise. Are all already chefs, working Chefs? What the winner gets? It has something to do with Gordon and Masterchef?

[@nataliemscrzysxycoolharris]

Honestly I do not know what many spices taste like by themselves. I take all purpose flour and eyeball measure what seasonings I add. I take a whisk then stir to combine then I dip the tip of a clean finger in the flour to taste it.
