''No Kitchen Required'' is a cooking show produced by BBC America that first aired in 2012. The show centres on three professional chefs who immerse themselves in a different culture each episode and then attempt to cook meals in the style of that culture with produce acquired by traditional means and with no commercial kitchen. ==Format== Hosted by Dr Shini Somara (previously the host of ''The Health Show''), each episode focuses on a different "traditional" or "tribal" culture.〔(''No Kitchen Required'' ) by Jay Tavare (Huffington Post, 4 April 2012)〕 The three participating chefs are introduced to tribal or cultural elders who provide an overview of their culture and cuisine. The chefs are then treated to a traditional meal to allow them to gain an understanding of the local cuisine. A ballot is then drawn to determine which "core ingredient" each chef will be required to use. The following day, with the assistance of a tribal or traditional advisor, each chef is required to acquire their core ingredient. During the 10 episodes of Season 1, core ingredients included hunted wild boar, hand-caught rock lobster and trap-caught river eel. Though the chefs are given instructions and guidance, they are expected to catch and kill animals themselves using traditional methods. The core ingredients are then supplemented with produce from local farmers, barter markets and gathered food. The chefs then return to "camp" where they cook a three-course meal which is supposed to blend their own cooking style with traditional techniques and flavours from that culture. Each chef is allowed to bring a chef's knife and a single additional (non-traditional) ingredient. They prepare food with basic utensils at a covered bench and cook over an open fire. Their food is then served to a panel of 4 judges from that tribe or culture. Judges are given three colours tokens (each colour corresponds to a particular chef) and are asked by the host to cast a single vote for the chef they believes best represented their traditional cuisine. In each instance, a tribal leader is chosen who holds a casting vote in the event of a tie. The winner is announced and the winning chef is brought before the traditional elders to be "honoured by the tribe". The winning chef then thanks the judges and presents the tribe with gifts. Gifts during Season 1 included sporting equipment, fishing gear and children's games. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「No Kitchen Required」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
