What is the cooking challenge about?

Host 0:00

This is Dude Perfect. You might know them from their world famous trick shots that have gotten billions of views online. But today, they're stepping into my world. Welcome to the kitchen. Today, the five of you will be competing in the toughest cooking challenge I have ever done. The challenge will be to keep up with me, and the way it works is simple.

What dish is being prepared in the challenge?

Host 0:14

I'm going to cook a creamy tomato pasta dish, and each of you will need to follow along to make the exact same thing. But there's no timer. I'm the clock. When I finish, you'll have just 60 more seconds to complete your dish, and it better look just like mine. Please put on your aprons. Yes, sir, chef. I'm looking forward to this, really, just to learn how to make pasta. I would be more nervous, but my competition is really only Garrett.

Who feels nervous about the cooking challenge?

Host 0:33

Not going to lie, I'm a little terrified. I struggle with mac and cheese at home. I don't think it's completely unfair to say that I've never cooked. Are we ready? Yes, chef! First up, fresh pasta. Fresh pasta. All right, I got to keep my eyes on them. Take your bowl down in the center of your cutting board. Grab your other bowl that has the eggs in it. Press into the flour and make a nice hole. Make a volcano. It's called a well. We're making a little well to put our eggs inside. Yes, chef. Then we need to crack in three eggs. One.

What techniques are used to make fresh pasta?

Host 0:58

He's rolling, dude. Two. What do you do with the edge? Try to crack with one hand if you can. That's the throw move. No! He missed his volcano! I'm outside the volcano. My volcano broke. Keep up. I'm not slowing down for anybody. Oh, this is going to be a horrible day. By the way, just so you know, the audience is going to judge this. So to anybody watching this video, once you finish, you're going to comment down below who you think won and why. I'm here for it. Now, grab the fork and start whisking up those eggs inside the well. Do not break the well. Don't break the well. Pretend the flour is a bowl and you're making scrambled eggs. Do not let the eggs spill outside of the well. This is not good. Oh, boy. Cory's behind already. You can say that. Once your eggs are whisked, start to pull in the flour from the inside of that well. Keep your workstation clean. Don't get flour everywhere. Yes, chef. Yes, chef.

Host 1:38

No problem, chef. Yo, look at Cory's thing. Oh, my god. Seriously, Cory, you need to hurry up. I think I'm in the lead here. Once that's thick enough, go ahead and grab what's called your bench scraper and start using that to mix in everything. Really combine all the flour with the egg. Cory's looks like scrambled eggs. I will be a great control group to see if you can still get at the same place from a different direction.

How do contestants handle mistakes during cooking?

Host 1:56

This is how you make fresh pasta traditionally. I'm going to do this three nights a week. I messed up. My bowl broke. I'm probably going to get fourth. I think I could beat Cory, but I'm behind. I feel pretty good, a little bit overly floury right now. Trying to get some of this yolk to mix its way through. I feel good, a little bit uneven on the mixture, but I'm working that problem right now. I think we're in a good place. You know, I feel really good. I am basing that off of looking at Corey, so that's really not a great standard, but I am keeping up. So my volcano was not deep enough, and everything else has gone downhill from there. I am trying to recover right now. The chef is disappointed in me, I can tell, but he's not nearly as disappointed in me as I am in myself.

Host 2:31

I don't know if any of them are going to finish. I'm not sure yet. Once your mixture starts to look like sort of floury scrambled eggs, go ahead and bring in your hands. You can wear gloves if you want. I'm just going to get right in there with my hands and start pushing it all together. Same, chef. Under your workstation, you should have a little bit more flour in a bowl. Yes, thank goodness. Flour your hands. Keep everything clean. I don't want to mess on anybody's station. And just start working your dough. This is called kneading. I need a lot of things right now. Use the heel of your hand to push down on the pasta dough each time, and your other hand will lift it back up onto itself, get in a nice rhythm, and start working your dough. Oh, I'm working it. Work, work, work.
