The second episode of Tiny Kitchen Cook Off features two celebrity guests: Jennifer Tilly and Devon Sawa. The petite kitchen set is adorned with seasonal decorations, and the hosts introduce the guests with a brief summary of their careers and a playful game of miniature putt-putt golf.
The challenge for today's episode is to make tiny pumpkin pies. The guests are given a miniature kitchen set and all the ingredients and cooking tools they need to complete the task. Jennifer and Devon work together to create their pumpkin pie filling, with Jennifer taking the lead as she is an accomplished baker. They start with pureed pumpkin, which they add to cream, spices, and sugar. Devon jokes around and accidentally adds too much cinnamon, but Jennifer graciously accepts the mistake and adds more cream to balance the flavor.
The crust of the pumpkin pies is the most challenging part since it requires precision and patience. The crust must be rolled out very thinly and then cut into small circles. Devon takes on the task of making the crust, and he soon realizes how tedious it is. The dough keeps sticking to the rolling pin and the countertop, but he persists. Jennifer helps shape the dough circles into the miniature pie dishes, and they discuss how important it is to keep the dough chilled while working with it.
Once the pie crusts are in place, the guests fill them with the pumpkin mixture and bake them in a miniature oven. Jennifer and Devon keep the conversation light and playful as they wait for the pies to cook. Jennifer shares some of her favorite baking tips, like using ice-cold butter when making pie crust and adding a tablespoon of vinegar to the crust to keep it flaky.
Once the pies are done, the hosts bring out the judges to taste and score them. The judges are impressed with the flavor and texture of both pies. They compliment Jennifer and Devon on working well together and creating a delicious dessert.
As the judges deliberate and decide the winner, Jennifer and Devon clean up their tiny kitchen set and chat about their experience on the show. They express how much fun they had and how impressed they were with the set and the production value of the show.
In the end, the judges reveal the winner of the challenge, and Jennifer and Devon embrace as they celebrate their hard work together. The episode concludes with the promise of more exciting challenges and celebrity guests to come in future episodes of Tiny Kitchen Cook Off.
