S01E04 - Canada Week

The bakers should feel right at home as it's Canada week. For the signature challenge, the bakers will have two hours to make the classic Québécois savory pie, the tourtiere. They will need to have enough fat in the filling to make it rich to the taste and for it to hold together and not crumble. For the technical challenge, the judges are asking for sixteen maple leaf cookies from each baker to be made in one and three-quarter hours. The cookies must be consistent, the shortbread dough rolled out evenly, and have the right ratio of cookie to maple cream filling. The other challenge the bakers face is dealing with an ingredient most have never seen or heard of, namely maple butter, the amount used which could make or break their cream filling. And for the showstopper, the bakers must make six each of two different types of doughnuts in three hours. For yeast doughnuts, the judges will be looking for the signature white line encircling the doughnuts where the dough has not touched the hot oil. Filled doughnuts should have a good ratio of filling to dough. The bakers must also be wary of the oil temperature: too hot and the doughnuts will burn or be too dark without the dough being cooked through, too cold and the doughnuts will absorb too much oil and become a greasy mess.
