welcome to the first ever as seen on GT
cook-off Szechuan peppercorn
extravaganza today we have three gold
thread members and they will be cooking

peppercorn inspired dishes the rules are
simple cooking 45 minutes use Szechuan
peppercorns and have their dish
previously eaten by human beand
and survived animals do not count so if
everyone agrees with the terms and
conditions click on the box and the
Szechuan peppercorn cook-off
extravaganza shall begin let's go
introducing the team first we have
Clarissa the resident food snob way whom
you may have seen in such videos as wild
hunt for mushrooms in search of a
face-kini and the Tsing Tao beer
festival next we have Victoria I can't
cook more than three dishes hope our
fearless executive producer who you may
have seen presenting our livestream
shows and of course Costco comes to
China lastly and possibly out of all our
contestants today he has the lowest
perceived score on the cooking knowledge
scale Henley my cookin never killed
nobody yet qu you might have spotted him
in our East Coast series or seen him
display his amazing eating abilities to
identify mysterious meats in our
goldthread show taste tests
let's speak to each of our contestants
and see what they can tell us about
their hopes their dreams and what goes
into their dishes the resident food what
snob I think Victoria coined that phrase
the resident because Victoria has a
competitive side why do you think you
know people who knows me knows I'm a big
fan of cooking always been a chef you
know I always want to be a chef my best
Christina I've ever made that I'm very
proud of our instant noodles feels like
it's like really hard but it's actually
pretty easy
Wow I really only cook three dishes and
so I'm very well-rehearsed I think my
dish is the medium effort it just sounds
fancy and looks fancy because there's a
lot of chili oil in it hi-hi as a foe I
don't know what are they cooking but
we're gonna see my dish I think it is
medium to low effort but high on pace
