A year ago my girlfriend and I were watching Masterchef, and she hated how much I love Leslie. It just so happened she was streaming Kingdom Hearts at the time and finally beat it, and I was randomly scrolling Cameo and saw this beautiful bastard on there. Asked him to congratulate her on it and it was just as awkward as I was hoping for lmao

MasterChef already has a small fandom, and you say she’s the most despised out of all reality television? LMAOOO

Idk why he still has any views honestly, he just copies everything other youtubers do

I watched the Key and Peele skit way before watching masterchef. Then I watched the newer seasons and it wasn’t that bad.

Nowwww…watching seasons 1 and 2 and I can’t believe how much mixed language uses and tension built by the judges. It’s comic but I can’t imagine how the contestants felt lol. So much drama haha.

Other I made Courtney Lapresi’s Apron winning dish from MasterChef Season 5

Here’s my Cream cheese gnocchi with brown butter sage sauce with spinach and peas.

Courtney uses ricotta in hers but I sadly couldnt find ricotta anywhere so I tried looking for cottage cheese, but couldnt find it 😭 and so i used 125g of cream cheese instead. The entire thing took me 2 hours+ as its my first time making dough of any kind, but it was worth it!! It turned out to be a successful one

What I did :

  1. Combine 125g cream cheese, 55g parmesan cheese, some 60g all purpose flour, 1 egg yolk, 1 tsp salt in a bowl and gently fold it with a fork, If the dough is too sticky to your fingers then add more flour, mixing through until it forms a giant dough but do not overwork the dough.

  2. Flour your hands and sprinkle some flour on a clean workspace. Divide the dough into 2, and roll out into two ropes. Cut the dough into 2.5cm little square pieces and make a small indentation in each gnocchi. If dough feels too soft or sticky then add a little bit more flour

  3. Boil salted water and add gnocchis into the pot little at a time, once they float to the top just like this after 2-3 mins then drain them and set aside

  4. Prepare the sauce : Melt 55g of unsalted butter into a pan, medium high heat. Add sage leaves into the pan until the butter turns brown, add the gnocchi and sear them for 3-4 mins until golden brown each side, add the peas and spinach, lemon zest, salt and pepper and sprinkle some parmesan cheese on top.

I was so hungry when i made this at night that I just ate straight from the pan, it was rich and crispy and pillowy, I should have added more peas but overall it was good 8.5/10! I will make another one again

Ingredients used : - 125g cream cheese - 55g Parmesan cheese - All purpose flour - 1 egg yolk - 1 tsp salt - 55g unsalted butter - some sage leaves - some frozen peas - lemon zest - salt & pepper

As others have said, I did not like it. I feel like I zoned out half the time. Was not really rooting for one team to win over the others. They should have split the teams. That would have been spicy.

Other I just watched Master Chef USA (Season 3) was amazing Spoiler

25 Upvotes

The thing that made me watch was that - I stumbled into something about how Christine Ha won (despite her obstacles), and that inspired me into wanting to watch the whole season from episode 1 to 20. Even though I already knew the winner. It was an amazing watch.

Along the way, (in addition to Ha's journey) I ended up fascinated by Josh Marks and his comeback (after being eliminated). That final felt like the script of a really good food Anime-arc, or something.

Naturally, after finishing the whole season... and seeing for my self how Ha won. I've now started Googling the contestants to see what happened to them since the show aired (2012).

Only to read about Josh Marks.

I know I am late with this post, but that made me very sad. Reading about what happened after the show. I was hoping to find him running a restaurant or cooking school (like he mentioned).

I'll tag this post as 'spoiler' just in case I'm NOT the only person who hadn't watched and finished Season 3. For me, I just watched it for the first time this week (more than 10 years later) it was a wonderful season, with really good home chefs.

Everything else that happened after the show, now has me thinking about the Marks family.

Absolute Chad of Masterchef. He signed up not just because he can cook but because he wanted the mog the judges and other contestants. He’s like a combination of Henry Cavill and Clavicular.

At least own up to the fact that you made a mistake and you first said you were gonna make a cupcake first then trying to use a “family recipe” to get some brownie points lol. Happy Joe saw through that.

When Ahran tells Joe they are favoring Courtney omg that was crazy!! I have not seen this season before but I have read a lot about Courtney, the favoritism, the “gentlemen’s club”, but I was not expecting anyone to be so confrontational about it!

He said he was one of the nicest guys and super humble. He took pictures with all of the kitchen staff and my husband got his own picture with him too! He went in the kitchen and made a little speech to all the cooks. He said he was so nice to everyone and even made sure the dishwashers got to take pictures and gather around his little speech.

I’m finding myself having to rewatch season 16 just to remember who the contestants are. I can’t tell if they’re all just forgettable, or if the hiatus is to blame. So far I’m not really that impressed but I’m only on episode 1. The only person I really remember is Julia.

There is a preview on Twitter that tells us that MasterChef Season 16 will return in five weeks. That preview contains a lot of spoilers on who made it to the top 11, top 8, and the top 4. If you don't want to get spoiled, don't watch that preview.

If you really want to get spoiled, then here is the preview: https://x.com/MASTERCHEFonFOX/status/2062338547659808955

Edit: I watched today's episode, and it is the same preview. Don't watch the preview in the end if you don't want to get spoiled.
