@@SortedFood I'm all in for a 'Kindergarten' themed mayhem challenge -- rather than cater for an adult palate, the chefs have to prepare appetising dishes for fussy children.
@@DipDip3008official colourblind person here with severe protan type colourblindness. Barry's plate of food looks mostly brown and a little bit red to me. The tuna is grey though
me thinking through this as I watch it. Tuna comes out: "Ok, thai curry style sauce around a nice seared tuna steak. Plenty of room for other ingredients that can fit in" Celery: "Sure, why not." Bread: "Cube it up, toss in some oil with some seasoning and get it in the oven to turn into croutons as a garnish" Peanut Butter: "Absolutely, panang curry uses peanut butter. hell yeah." Watermelon: "A little soy and a little vinegar brushed on, let to sit for a couple minutes and sprinkled with either a little tajin or a little sugar as a weird/refreshing side salad, the croutons can go in as a bizarre take on a panzanella?"
I'd have proabably made something similar to Spaff. But I'd have thrown the peanut butter into the tomato sauce. Then I'd have cut the watermelon into pieces and seared off the tuna. So in the end you have a sauce, tuna and the freshness of the watermelon. I feel like the watermelon got completely lost in his tomato sauce. The bread as croutons would've worked decently.
Watermelon substitutes nicely for cucumber in gazpacho andaluz, so although it may not have been a hero ingredient I'll give it credit for contributing to the dish.
@@etuanno I was so confused that he didn't put the peanut butter into the sauce. One of my favourite dishes is a stew with a tomato-peanut butter sauce
When Barry grabbed the spam and said "i saw recently..", i knew it will be a cloud eggs moment. That guy loves a new trend and won't budge 😂 We love him for that tho!
Tuna tartare with toasts for appetizer. Tuna Tataki over a shaved celery and green apple salad with a peanut (in place of sesame oil), fish sauce, chili, and lime dressing for main. Blend the watermelon and strain the juice out for a drink with vodka, lime and simple syrup. Throw it in a Tajin rimmed glass for good measure. Hindsight is 20/20 😆 I agree, Jamie definitely won this one.
Jamie knocked it out of the park for me! He was SO smart about how he approached it. Both dishes looked delish in the end but I feel like his plate looked more like a full meal/thought out dish, he takes the win for me! Rarely have I ever seen him this leavel headed and focused.
@@SortedFood I agree, Jamie was off to a great start, with good planning. He got thrown for a loop by the PB, but I think he did very well. Baz was just being quintessentially Baz: "It's RED!"
My vote goes to Jamie! Barry didn’t actually use the celery really. Both plates ended up looking interesting but I was impressed with how Jamie prepared and didn’t get bored!
Barry is a definition of a child trying to make a dish during this episode and it brilliant. Putting anything and everything Red in a dish just due to the colour🤣
tbh everything made kind of sense as a salad. Only exception was the spam, but that one never actually made sense. He really cornered himself by adding that very early to his dish.
@@achimsinn6189 Sorta agreed. It more the problem with the rules then with the dish and Barry. Since there a no food wastage rule with the exception of mess up, Barry couldn't not use the spam, he has to find a place for it even though it not apart of the 5 new ingredients. Either way, I think what mattered more to Barry was him having a fun time and going with the flow and learning from the experience.
@@achimsinn6189 The way he approached this they should have just given him some watercolours. He can have all the red he wants with that without wasting any food. :)
This format and the new alphabet format are my new favorites!!! Oh wait, also the pass it on and the streetfood and breakfast of the world format. Or maybe my favorite is the cooking recipes from old cookbooks, but also the podcasts…Tin can roulette is awesome also, I can’t decide ❤
This such an awesome show! I LOVE Mystery Mayhem! Watching the chefs take it on was intense. Watching the normals is really crazy! It’s fantastic! Barry’s use of the celery was almost cheating. Jamie kinda cheated with his use of the peanut butter. Jaime had to really think outside the box with the ingredients he had gone with. Barry got lucky with items that fit in the direction he had chosen. Jaime wins. I wish I could taste them both.
Frankly, just seeing the process I would guess Jamie's dish would win *but* I would want to try Barry's red salad ! That was a lot of fun. Love that new series.
I was the kid scraping the peanut butter out of the celery that adulterated it. Ever year, my mom asks if I remembered to put celery in the Thanksgiving dressing. I can say “Yes ma’am” with a clear conscience because I did add 1/4 teaspoon of the item in question.
My dad would make us "Martian Trees" with it. Smash up a chocolate bar, fill and coat the celery with peanut butter, roll it in chocolate pieces for the "bark." Great way to get us kids to eat raw veggies.
I reckon peanut butter in milk could've worked if he'd used equal parts of each, rather than a spoonful of peanut butter in a half pint of milk. I'm also now curious how he would've been graded had he drained the oil from the butter and used it to fry his tuna. Not being perfectly strained it probably would've burnt, but I want to know.
@@adamrobinson6951 maybe not equal part but yes a bit more of it, you do not want to have the peanut butter overpower the tuna. I would've put the peanut butter in the tomato sauce thing, so is the water melon for the flavor.
I'm going with Jamie on this one. I've actually mixed peanut butter with various milks and spices to make a creamy peanut sauce for noodles which reminded me of Jamie's dip for the tuna. He probably could have made a thicker sauce with it and been just fine and had that extra crunch along with the bread crumbs.
Peanut butter can be melted in the microwave and you can add soy sauce to it to make a peanut sauce. Even better if you make it spicy. Goes well with most Asian dishes.
Yes, I agree, Jamie! As a quilter I would have put the celery in Barry’s dish as the sparkle! Just a little would have worked. I’m not a fan of totally matching anything!
Jamie totally won this. Peanut butter in milk was genius even if it wasn't super noticeable. A few celery leaves does not make use of the ingredient at all. (He could have left it raw and given the salad a pop of color that would have been nice at least...)
10:00 Gotta say, Jamie's plating skills are getting better. That dish looks very appetising, even though, there was a bit of a cop out on the peanut butter.
Liking the new format. Nice seeing everyone's minds making order out of chaos. The wider your repertoire of dishes & how food works, the easier it is to make connections on how to put odd things together. I doubt the "normals" could have done this a few years ago.
This is a really interesting challenge especially this time because those ingredients if given together would have easily been turned into a beautiful dish, they all work together well, maybe the watermelon is a little bit of a curveball but there being no real curveball outside the time is kind of neat to see what they come up with. I like this series a lot
I definitely agree with Ben on this one! As good as Barry's dish looked, the two parts of his dish that were off were the spam (something he decided to add early on, which I definitely think was a mistake, as much as I love spam) and his lack of incorporating celery, the second ingredient that he had plenty of time to work in. I do like the idea of using the celery leaves for garnish, but he should've worked in more celery somewhere. On the flipside Jamie had a pretty solid plan and managed to adapt really well, and only stumbled on the peanut butter (something introduced super late that really didn't go with the rest of Jamie's ingredients, and something he doesn't really like in the first place). Outside of that I think his dish really came together well and of the two of them I'd love to try Jamie's over Barry's (though they both look amazing!)
Well, I know what I'd do if I had to work with all these things for some reason. Seared Tuna, with a side of Peanut Butter filled Celery, and cubed Watermelon as a dessert.
If I were them, here's what I would probably try to do: Tuna: Start a quick pickle to make Tuna Ceviche, cut Tuna into small cubes, add diced shallots, maybe some parsley for greens, olives just for the heck of it. Also prepare some bread to put the ceviche over Celery: Finely chop and add to Ceviche to add some crunch Bread: lucky me, already had bread ready. Would probably start toasting the bread Peanut Butter: well, probably redo the toast, but use a peanut butter as a thin spread and toast it under a pan. Or just add the peanut butter over the toasted toast Watermelon: Juice it and add to the ceviche mix
So an idea to add more gameplay to this format. Up it from 5 ingredients to 6 but add in 1 veto where a person can say "no thank you" to an ingredient. You still have to incorporate the same number of ingredients but you now have to ask yourself with every ingredient "okay that's not good, but is something worse coming down the line?". Also would let you get weirder with some of the ingredients. Oh you used your veto to not add mustard greens to your dish? Well guess who now needs to figure out how to get durian into their dish somehow.
Ebbers (nearly) always votes for Jamie. I'm voting for Barry. The spam - well, we will not think of that for too long, but the rest was very appetizing. Would the celery have been a good ingredient for the salad (apart from the colour)? I don't think so, so kudos for just using the leaves for garnish.
I reckon Jamie won. His dish looks a lot better, and although he cheated a little by barely using the peanut butter, Barry also cheated a little by barely using the celery, so that cancels out.
For pb and tomatoes, we have this creole thing called Rougail Dakatine from Reunion island, in many ways it's probably very similar in taste and influenced from Satay sauce, use to be one of my fav dip with bread as a kid.
Since you're asking: make kind of a fine crouton or crumble out of the bread. Use the tuna and celery for kind of a tartare, topped with the crumbles and a nice peanutsauce (peanutbutter, coconut milk, cilantro, cayenne, maybe a bit of honey and some salt). The watermelon would fit in nicely too. Either chop it finely and mix into the tartare or add as a fine dice on top with the crumbles and the peanut sauce.
I'm gonna play along. *1) Tuna.* I'm just gonna season and sear that up nice, because raw has less options. Meanwhile prep some garlic and onion, finely minced. Because you can't go wrong with garlic and onion. *2) Celery.* Mince that too, along with a carrot, throw it in some oil with the onion and garlic and I've got a nice sofrito going. *3) Bread.* Cool. Sandwich it is. Toast that bread, thinly slice the tuna for a nice tender bite. Throw some tomato paste into the sofrito and stick-blender it into some kind of spreadable sauce. *4) Peanut Butter.* Okay... What if the desert was a side? Sandwich with a side of peanut brittle "chips." I'm also going to rough chop some pistachios, throw those in both the brittle and the sandwich to bring the two together. Add a touch of cinnamon to the brittle and just a whisper of cinnamon to the sofrito, also for thematic consistency. *5) Watermelon.* Seriously? Watermelon? Fine. Smoothie it is. Watermelon, celery, and carrot smoothie, again with a whisper of cinnamon. How did I do?
There is something so very Barry about responding to the tuna by saying "ooo spam fries."
Reminds me a little of Barry and the cloud egg
There's also something very Jamie about it.
bin it!!! hahahahahaah
Barry never goes in the expected direction.
Classic Barry with "Whatever happens, I am making a cloud egg" approach comes back again
He had a plan and didn't want to navigate from that 😂
"Tuna? Ah yes spam fries obviously" was hitting some cloud egg levels of Barryness.
I like how Ebbers is coming down on Barry for not properly using celery when he used baking paper as an ingredient a few days ago xD
We can't argue with this comment 😆
And for the letter U at that
OMG! FRIENDLY?! IS THAT YOU?
At least Ebbers actually *used* the baking paper...
yeah but they give Ebbers so much shit all the time he deserves to give some back
At the end, I was a little confused as to why there wasn't Spam on Jamie's dish, and then I remembered Barry did that to himself. Jamie wins.
Same. I forgot the spam wasn't required!
Ben is incredible at commentating. He adds so much to the video even though he isn't cooking
Man, I see those ingredients and all I can imagine is "Kindergarten Charcuterie": tuna sandwich, celery stalks with peanut butter on it, and cubed watermelon. lol
That would be pretty tasty TBF.
Plus that would have used all the ingredients completely in the dish. Or peanut butter sandwich with tuna and celery salad or something on the side.

Surprised how well (relatively, he did shove the celery off to the side) Barry’s dish panned out given he committed so hard and so early
Jamie was literally running down the road to one of my favourite dishes to make, spicy tuna with a peanut satay
This is such a good way to become a better cook, on every level.
I ABSOULTELY love this concept and series!!! It's so much fun!
This is a difficult challenge for a Chef and definitely home cooks to not only think on the spot, but also pivot super quickly.

Peanut butter can be melted in the microwave and you can add soy sauce to it to make a peanut sauce. Even better if you make it spicy. Goes well with most Asian dishes.
Yes, I agree, Jamie! As a quilter I would have put the celery in Barry’s dish as the sparkle! Just a little would have worked. I’m not a fan of totally matching anything!

Love this new format, who gets to decide the ingredients? Is it random or thought out?
I'm afraid that Baz's Spam made Jamie the winner!! I love Spam but it didn't go with his dish. Jamie for the win.
Jamie's dish is very Italian. I didn't think of fish and red sauce as compatable, but Sicily proved me wrong.
Peanut and tomato is a delicious combo! African peanut-butter greens (moriwo) 😋 so good
barry just said "hmm, yes red" and ended up with a pile, jamie wins
