Having conquered the first challenge, Soma heads off to the second venue. There, he encounters someone unexpected. The second challenge begins, and the theme is to “Cook Something Worth Over $100, with Items Sold in the Convenient Store”! Soma is confident with the theme, however, every dish he presents are rejected by the judge! What could be the reason?
Salting the vegetables draws 
out most of the moisture
يسحب تمليح الخضروات 
معظم الرّطوبة منها
Wenn man mit Salz
die Feuchtigkeit rauszieht,
Le sel retire l’humidité et permet
au vinaigre doux de s’infiltrer.
Togliendo l'umidità con il sale,
Ao colocar sal e retirar a água,
Посыпав солью и удалив влагу,
придаём овощам подслащённый вкус.
