Battle (Superbowl) Chips

A great showing at Iron Chef XX*, hosted by Sam and Guille (with guest judge Jeanne), with Superbowl Sunday struggling to compete with the attention paid to the deliciousness laid out.

There were too many amazing dishes to go into detail about all of them but the Honorable Mentions were:

Best Use of Chip:

Steve's Shrimp Chips, took a week to make and were excellently produced.

Best Presentation: 

Both Jason's Field of Chipped Dreams (blue corn chips for the Ravens and golden chips for the 49ers) and

Brian's Mexican Chip Casserole nailed the spirit of the event.

Most Creative: 

Both John and Caitlin's Frito Pie Consomme (which tasted disturbingly like Frito Pie) and 

Carmin and Will's That's Nacho Dessert! were totally innovative uses of the secret ingredient and totally impressed the judges.

But the overall win went to the newcomer's Rodrigo and Sarah (and Matteo) for their exceptionally balanced Camarones a la Diabla! Congratulations to the New Tucson Iron Chef (of the month ...).

* I actually I have no idea how many Iron Chef Battles we have had, but XX is a nice round Roman numeral.
