Ep 7. Hoofin' It!

In this episode of Chopped, the chefs are in for a unique and challenging cooking experience as they are tasked with creating dishes using animal hooves. That's right, it's hoofin' it in the Chopped kitchen!

As always, the chefs begin with the appetizer round, where they have just 20 minutes to transform the hooves into a delicious dish. One chef decides to go the traditional route and create a Vietnamese-style pho with pork feet, while another opts to use the cow hoof to make a hearty chili. The judges are impressed with the creativity and resourcefulness of the chefs, but not all the dishes hit the mark.

Next up is the entree round, where the remaining chefs must use the hooves to make a main course dish. One chef decides to create a lamb shank dish using the animal's feet, while another chooses to make a spicy curry with chicken feet. The chefs are feeling the pressure as time ticks down and they struggle to make the most of the unusual ingredient.

Finally, the chefs move on to the dessert round, where they must use the hooves to create a sweet dish. One chef decides to make a gelatin-based dessert with beef hooves, while another attempts to make a candied pork foot. The judges are skeptical of some of these choices, but can the chefs pull it off and impress them with their creativity?

Throughout the episode, tensions run high as the chefs are pushed out of their comfort zone with this challenging ingredient. As always, there are ups and downs as some dishes succeed while others fail, but all of the chefs bring their A game to create dishes that are both delicious and innovative.

Hoofin' It! is an episode that will keep you on the edge of your seat as the chefs work to create dishes that are out of the ordinary.
