Fifteen minutes after ten in the evening a new delivery MasterChef Celebritywhere nerves prevailed because it was an elimination gala. “When this program ends, a new participant will leave us,” he said. Wanda Naraat the beginning of the show. And with that he greeted the black aprons of the week: Agustín “Cachete” Sierra, Susana Roccasalvo, Momi Giardina, Andy Chango, Leandro “Chino” Leunis, Claudio “Turco” Husaín And The Joaqui.
At all stations, participants came across a mysterious box whose contents were a real question mark. After taking a few chances, everyone finally came across the bluefin tuna, “or also known as the king of the sea”.as he said Donato De Santis. “This court defines permanence in MasterChef” then added Damian Betularwhile German Martitegui He encouraged them to look for challenges and not come up with easy ideas.
The participants trusted their creativity, although they had some doubts about how to manipulate and make the most of the bluefin tuna to create a dish that would surprise the specialists. After sixty minutes of preparation, Wanda made her dreaded exclamation and signaled the cooks to finish their dishes with a shout of “hands up.”
On the return, Roccasalvo was chosen first. She brought a fried tuna with onions and mushrooms, about which Donato said: “Very tasty, very good taste. The portion is plenty, it’s a fortune to buy all this, but the sauce is very little.” Betular, for his part, agreed that the dish was “very expensive” and explained: “The taste of the tuna is very tasty.”
El Turco chose a seared tuna with mango sauce, and Betular emphasized: “The greens of the dish are like a gazpacho, I would have used it as a base, without yogurt and without radish.” For his part, Martitegui was categorical, noting: “It’s very frustrating to give them advice on a dish because I feel like they’re blocked and don’t listen to the end. The grilled sesame would have contributed a lot and probably the sauce alone would have changed everything.” Faced with this return, the Turk was upset because he believed he had not known how to use the advice of the specialists.
Andy Chango made a tuna tartare with zucchini carpaccio, and Germán emphasized: “It’s quite difficult to describe the texture you achieved. It’s like slime because the raw meat with this type of mayonnaise creates a gelatinous situation in the mouth, which is not pleasant.” At the same time, Donato reflected, “Neutralizing that flavor of the tuna with the smoothness of the sauce neutralizes it a lot. But I liked the idea of the carpaccio, even though it was perhaps intertwined with the avocado, and half of that tuna could have gone somewhere that could be improved.” More succinctly, Betular said that the dish they tried could easily have been Eva foam.
Tataki with crispy rice noodle yogurt was the route Cachete chose, and Martitegui cheered: “Today Cachete has reached MasterChef. This dish is a before and after.” When he brought his concoction, “Chino” Leunis showed a tartare with dill oil and an avocado garnish, and Betular remarked, “It’s missing.” “If you had created a liquid that combined everything, it would have helped a lot more,” while Germán concluded that “it lacked flavor.”
Momi brought a tartare with teriyaki sauce, but it did not convince the specialists, and Martitegui emphasized: “There are similar flavors that could have been good, but no. There are some quite coarse pieces that do not make the meal pleasant. That’s surprising.” Next, La Joaqui prepared a tuna roll with mango salad and Donato congratulated her: “The presentation was very delicate.” Betular also enthusiastically emphasized: “I think you had fun today and it shows. Congratulations.” For his part, Germán agreed with the praise, concluding: “I can eat that in a restaurant.”
Before the time of return, Maxi López came forward and made a special announcement. “My time is up. I have to travel,” said the athlete and he said: “I have to accompany Daniela in Europe. But I will come back.” To applause, the chefs presented Maxi with a very special gift, a small apron with the name “Lando” for his baby.
At the end of the deliberation period, the jury was ready to announce their decision. And after much suspense, the specialists announced that Momi was the one who was eliminated. As she left, she said: “I want to thank you. I had a lot of fun, I went in very scared. And you pushed me. I went with a pot of friends. I have nothing left to be thankful for, I was very happy.”
