Alton's Maniacal Baskets: Part 4
Episode 7 · 2021-07-13
- Reality
Episode overview
Alton Brown returns with baskets designed to break spirits. The Appetizer round pairs head-on shrimp with canned haggis and blueberry waffles—a sugary, offal-filled trap. Things turn "maniacal" in the Entrée as chefs battle fermented banana peels and the salty funk of shiokara to save their wild boar. The Dessert finale is a texture war: savory pork floss meets medicinal wormwood liqueur and pizza cookie cake.
