“Worst Cooks in America” is a reality competition series aired on the Food Network. It features a group of 12 to 16 participants who lack culinary expertise, guiding them through an intensive eight-week cooking boot camp. The goal is to win a $25,000 cash prize. Throughout the show, the contestants are taught essential cooking skills such as baking, knife handling, temperature control, seasoning, and food preparation. In the final test, they must prepare a three-course meal of restaurant quality to impress a panel of three food critics.
