Back in its second season, and also with a brand new, two hour format, The Taste is open to everyone -- from home cooks to professional chefs -- in an effort to find some of America's most naturally gifted cooks. 16 culinary hopefuls will ultimately win the chance to show off their skills in The Taste kitchen where one blind spoonful of food can determine whether a competitor stays or goes home.

The Auditions
In the two-hour season premiere, the heat is on when contestants put their best culinary foot forward and create their best dish for Anthony, Nigella, Ludo and new mentor Marcus Samuelsson to taste. At the end of the night, 16 will be given a place on one of the mentors' teams. One single spoonful will decide whether or not they make it past the audition phase and on to the competition.
