![]() ![]() But I’ve made all of the components several times. And like I have made Baked Alaska one other time in my life. GE: Like they said it is one of the hardest desserts to make, so why would anybody be practicing that?ĮH: “Exactly. And no I’ve not yet had the balls to remake it and then try to figure out what that was. So that’s not an accurate scientific explanation for what happened, but I am still mystified. It was not… you know, I feel like the way that they portrayed it last night was along the lines of if you add goat cheese to ice cream it has a higher propensity to melt. It was a whole thing, right? So structurally it was not sound. So like I knew that I didn’t cut enough off the top of the cake. And I was like, I know that I made these errors along the way which ultimately led to my cake falling over and my elimination. Because after the fact I look back on what happened in season nine. And so I was actually discussing this last night with my boyfriend and I was like, you know, I think this elimination is different than my season nine elimination. I do not know and I have had months to replay this over and over again, and think like what went wrong. GE: So, I hate to ask but can you tell me what happened with your Baked Alaska?ĮH: “You know, this is actually the funniest thing. I mean, it wasn’t more difficult than season nine, but it was a challenge for sure.” So I think that was probably the most difficult part was just the preparation aspect. I learned a few new things so that I had something to kind of pull out of my sleeve. So when when I got the call and they were like, ‘Would you be interested in doing this?’ I had to kind of say oh, I need to brush up on on some more advanced skills. Am I cooking MasterChef quality dishes every night at home for dinner? No. So like, do I think about food all the time? Yes. I knew that that was not what I wanted to do. Like I worked in restaurants for 10 years. I came from 10 years in the service industry. That was probably the most challenging part is that I was one of the only people that didn’t leave MasterChef their first season and go on to pursue a career in cooking or food or restaurants. GE: What was the hardest part of coming back?ĮH: “I think the hardest part for me was getting back into the swing of thinking about food all the time. So those were definitely spent, you know at home on my couch, with dogs and a bottle of wine.” I had to deal with those emotions because in season nine, I wasn’t at the bottom until I got eliminated. I think this season was a little different for me because I was in the bottom a few times. When I’m watching it sometimes I’m as surprised as the viewers are where I’m like, ‘Oh, I don’t remember that happening.’ So it’s kind of a nerve wracking experience, but ultimately, it’s very good. I don’t remember some of the things that happen. And I’m like, ‘Well, I don’t know what they’re gonna show.’ Yeah, I know ultimately what happens, but I don’t know what they’re going to show you. I think it’s funny because people are a little confused about why I’m nervous when I’m watching it. Just because we’ve all been through it before, you know, so like, I think it was less nerve wracking. GE: So what’s it been like for you to see your journey as you progressed in the season?ĮH: “I think it was a little bit different, especially this time around. GE: I have to ask, have you been watching the season back as it’s played? I mean, I was at the point literally where I was planning my finale menu because, once you get to the top five, you’re thinking like, ‘Okay, I’m so close.’ Like I need to start thinking about what I would maybe make if I was in the finale.” Guilty Eats: Congratulations on all you did this season on MasterChef.Įmily Hallock: “I made it further than than last time around so that was pretty much my goal going into it.”ĮH: “I know. 1” episode of MASTERCHEF airing Wednesday, Sep.
