What’s in Your Ultimate Chopped Basket?
by FN Dish Editor in Shows, January 21st, 2013
Three rounds, three different baskets and 12 out-of-this-world ingredients. Whether it’s Chopped Champions, All-Stars or regular-season episodes, that’s a lot of combinations to come up with.
So we’re asking this question: What would be included in your ultimate Chopped basket? Not something you’d want to receive, but something you’d give to a fellow competitor. Would there be two proteins? All sweets? Would you include one or two ingredients they’ve probably never heard of? It can be argued that the simplest ingredients like eggs, chicken, pasta and rice are sometimes the hardest.
Tell us what you’d choose in the comments below.

I think there should be an allergen friendly show.
NO: cow dairy/products, nuts of any kind, eggs, wheat products, shellfish, fish, soy products – NONE OF IT. Have them use ingredients that do NOT have those listed. Nor any currently living organism – so piece of meat is fine.
Awesome idea! only downside is that humans can be allergic to anything. I'm allergic to Coffee, and I know someone allergic to peaches, Canteloupe, and Corn.
