MasterChef 2023 episode 10: It’s the fourth week of heats, and the judges are mixing it up once again. They have a set of challenges the contestants must complete in order to progress in the competition. Nine home cooks arrive with both their dreams and ingredients ready for their first test, the Audition Round. This year’s auditionees come from all over the UK – cooking a range of dishes that not only aim to challenge the palettes of the judges, but to make their tastebuds dance.
Cooking their Family Favourite dish and making it MasterChef-worthy, the hopefuls must show John and Gregg who they are as a cook and how good they could become. John and Gregg don’t witness them cook in the MasterChef kitchen. Instead, they taste each dish in the Tasting Room. Just like diners in a restaurant, they judge each contestant’s food solely on the plate that is put in front of them.
After tasting all nine plates, John and Gregg pick their three favourite dishes, giving those cooks a well-earned MasterChef apron and immunity from cooking in the next round. However, for the remaining six contestants, the competition is not over. Faced with an invention test, they must pull out all the stops to cook a dish – sweet or savoury – good enough to get them into the competition, and this time, John and Gregg are in the kitchen witnessing their every move. The pressure is intense, and the stakes are high, as at the end, only four cooks can join the three already fast-tracked in the next round of challenges. For two, their MasterChef dream is over.
MasterChef 2023 episode 10 – A High-Stakes Audition Round for Aspiring Home Cooks
The fourth week of heats has arrived, and the judges are shaking things up once again on MasterChef 2023. This time, they have a set of challenges that the contestants must complete in order to progress further in the competition. Here’s what went down in the latest episode.
Audition Round: Nine Home Cooks Show Their Skills
Nine hopeful home cooks from all corners of the UK arrived with both their dreams and ingredients in tow for their first test, the Audition Round. Their task? To cook their Family Favourite dish and transform it into a MasterChef-worthy creation that would challenge the palates of the judges and make their taste buds dance. The contestants aimed to showcase their cooking skills and demonstrate how they could evolve as chefs.
The contestants didn’t get to cook in the MasterChef kitchen. Instead, they presented their dishes to judges John and Gregg in the Tasting Room. The judges judged each contestant’s food solely based on the plate that was presented in front of them, just like diners in a restaurant.
After tasting all nine plates, John and Gregg picked their three favourite dishes, awarding those cooks a coveted MasterChef apron and immunity from cooking in the next round. For the remaining six contestants, the competition was not over yet.
Invention Test: Six Contestants Battle It Out
The remaining six contestants were faced with an intense Invention Test, where they had to create a dish – sweet or savoury – that would wow the judges and earn them a spot in the competition. This time, John and Gregg were present in the kitchen to witness their every move, adding to the pressure and raising the stakes.
At the end of the Invention Test, only four cooks could join the three already fast-tracked into the next round of challenges. For two contestants, their MasterChef dreams came to an end.
The Bottom Line
In MasterChef 2023 Episode 10, aspiring home cooks faced a high-stakes Audition Round and Invention Test to progress in the competition. Only the best dishes impressed the judges, and the pressure was intense. Tune in next week to see which contestants make it to the next round.
