In a way, Summer had to admit, she sort of enjoyed how at least half the class (well, two specific students consistently) seemed to be challenging her with these challenges as much as she was challenging them, so there was an odd balance of excitement and dread that accompanied today's class, knowing full well that was waiting for her and the students in those baskets.
"Alright, guys," she started, "welcome to yet another class where I'm sure one of you," or two of you, anyway, "will give me at least one moment that causes me to regret every life decision I've ever made that brought me to this point. But, to get us there, of course, we'll be cooking with three more mystery ingredients, and I am really interested to see what you come up with. But a few things: first off, the blenders are back, but there is an express ban on any smoothies, milkshakes, or soups this week. Too easy. The idea is to challenge yourself, you guys! Secondly? At least one element of your dish must be cooked in some way. And finally, thirdly, I would like you all to focus on presentation this week, got it? I've sort of given up on some of you managing to get anywhere up there on the taste factor, but the least you can do is make it look pretty, right?
"Right." She nodded. "So, unless there are any questions, man your stations and get ready to open your baskets."
