re: Would anyone like to see the FDB Chopped Challenge return?

We might get more participation if we had more generic ingredients, like "beef" or "hot pepper".
That would give people more flexibility to use their creativity. Or maybe we can give a list of 5 or 6 ingredients and have the contestants use 4 of them.
I think sometimes people stay out of the competition because of that one weird ingredient that they don't know how to use. Keep in mind that unlike chopped, we have to feed what we make to our family, when we're done.

Very good idea imo

Good point. Participation is the biggest thing. I think the previous challenges were a bit too ambitious.

that one weird ingredient
Near the end, there were 3 weird ingredients, and one common one. Not a huge deal, but it started to get out of hand.
I would try again in an every-other month sort of deal. I had fun, and learned stuff when I entered.
When it started, the first basket was almost seasonal. October was pumpkin, marmalade, pork, and sriracha with the latter being the "twist" ingredient. I would like to see something similar this time. Maybe Alligator if we are playing Florida, or turkey during November. Uncommon herbs and spices should be introduced. If the basket items are Captn Crunch cereal and durian, I'm going to sit out.
Better yet, make people pledge to playing before the basket is revealed, keep a running ranking list for participants, and have the most consistent player win in the end.

I was guilty a couple times of bowing out because I didn't want to incorporate one of the ingredients.
