Iron Chef — The Breakaway Spin!

May 14th, 2008 Posted in Cooking ideas

Well some very intriguing news came in the form of a phone call from the executive producer of Iron Chef America, who asked if I’d be interested in being a judge for the upcoming season. And the answer was, “Yes!” We tape in NYC in late June — more updates as developments unfold, but for now, woohoo!

    Smart producer — you’ll be a welcome addition of wit, culinary knowledge and, let’s face the truth here, good looks.

    Congratulations! And Casey is right that you’ll add some spice to the judging panel. Jeffrey Steingarten is going to look even more, well, Steingarten-ish.

    Outstanding! Make sure that you point out that the dishes need more global flavor, and that they are not seasoned with authority. Unless they are. Sprinkle in some conversational Japanese.
