"A Seoul-style set meal": Culinary Class Wars' Seoul Mother reveals the dish she prepared during the first elimination challenge

Culinary Class Wars Season 2 Episode 2 featured Black Spoons participating in the first elimination challenge.

While they worked on their dishes, White Spoons watched them from the gallery. Two of the cheftestants who caught everyone's attention in the beginning were Seoul Mother and Dweji-Gomtang in NY.

While Seoul Mother worked on her signature Seoul-style set meal, Dweji-Gomtang in NY prepared his unique dish, Dweji-Gomtang.

In her private confession, Culinary Class Wars' Seoul Mother shared more about her dish:

"An elegant meal you might make when hosting guests or to celebrate special occasions. A Seoul-style set meal. The key to neobiani is to thoroughly pound the meat. Incredibly tender. You need to use a lot of pear juice. And cook it in the frying pan just right."

After Kim Do-yun's elimination from the first elimination challenge, White Spoons watched fellow Black Spoons prepare their dishes. They saw one of the participants "pounding something" from the gallery.

"She's the owner of "Superpan," which serves Seoul-style food. People talk about Superpan a lot," one of the White Spoons noted.

They were talking about Seoul Mother. A fellow chef asked whether she was the one who taught cooking to celebrities. In her private confession, Culinary Class Wars' Seoul Mother shared details about her work and culinary background.

"I've been pretty well-known as a cooking instructor for wealthy families for over 20 years. I was lucky enough to write a book about my work."

A White Spoon shared that they remembered Seoul Mother’s book from years ago. They discussed how she was "great" and "just incredible."

Some other White Spoons noticed Dweji-Gomtang in NY making Gomtang. The Culinary Class Wars' chef shared more about his special dish:

"It's made with just pork meat. That's it.....When the lid starts jiggling, I turn the heat off and let it rest. That will extract delicious broth."

In his private confession, Dweji-Gomtang in NY noted that many individuals wondered how he was able to get such a flavor from pork. Culinary Class Wars' chef presented his dish, Dweji Gomtang to the judges.

In the meantime, Seoul Mother shared more about her dish. She stated that Seoul-style set meal was made while hosting guests or to celebrate special occasions.

Some White Chefs noted Seoul Mother working on her dish. They wondered what her dish was. Fellow participants noted how her ingredients weren't "that fancy." But they were "very simple." Soon, she got her Seoul-style set meal dish ready for the judges.

"After eating this...it's changed my dialect. I feel like I'm from Seoul now. You've survived," One of the judges, Paik Jong-won, shared.

Culinary Class Wars judge noted that it all worked "just so perfectly" together. Seoul Mother was the second participant to move forward in the competition.

"In truth, Seoul cuisine is actually the legacy of the royal court. So simple and light and clean. She captured that well," confessed the judge.

The next dish up for tasting was Dweji Gomtang. The chef requested the judge to taste the broth first. He did that. After that, he tasted the rice with broth.

Paik Jong-won noted that when he tasted the broth first, it tasted different. Later, with rice, the taste was not the same. Dweji-Gomtang in NY was the next chef to get qualified further in the competition.
