In our "In the Kitchen" segments, we challenge cooks of all walks of life to create a dish using the ingredients we give them. We unveil which ingredients they use at the top of the show and they have to create a dish by the time we get to their segment.
Wednesday's "In the Kitchen" contestant is the season 4 winner of Master Chef Jr. - 11-year-old Addison Osta Smith from River Forest, Ill. She came back to WCL to show us she still has great cooking chops.
We set out Alessi products that must be used, one protein and some kitchen staples - then Addison worked her magic!
Our Friends at Alessi sent Addison and a lucky member of our studio audience home with a gift basket of goodies.
