The past episode of kid cooking competition "MasterChef Junior" featured a bowl of whipped cream being poured over the head of caustic chef Gordon Ramsay--and he didn't even get mad.
The episode's whipped cream challenge obviouly ended on a fun note. The main challenge was then to make beef wellington, which is not an easy feat for an adult, let alone a child.
The episode started off with the contestants with the best burgers from last week participating in a whip-off to whip a bowl of cream to stiff peaks, by hand. The winner got the advantage in the elimination challenge.
Each contestant had to hold the bowl of cream over a chef's head to see if it stayed put or dripped all over their heads. Alexander finishes first, and his whipped cream is whipped properly, meaning it stays put in the bowl. But after he is declared the winner, he decides to dump the bowl on Graham Elliot's head anyway. But none of the chefs get angry, and the show devolves into a food fight for a few minutes, with notoriously cantakerous Gordon Ramsay even getting in on the fun.
Once everyone settles down, the next challenge is revealed: they will be working in pairs to recreate Gordon's famous Beef Wellington and sides. Half of the kids worked while their partners barked instructions at them.
Alexander gets upset about Troy not putting the mustard on correctly when he removes the steak, but the rest are working quickly and efficiently--until the switch. Then the frenetic kids start to shout back and forth at each other.
Once time is up, Troy and Alexander go first and get high marks for their dish. Yet Sarah and Dara are up next, and their delicious dish surpasses the boys'.
Now for the bad: Jack and Kaylen's meat is overcooked, and Jewels and Roen's dish is too salty. Because it was a team challenge, both Jewels and Roen are sent home, even though Jewels was the one responsible for over-salting the meat.
On the next episode, the kids will create delicious dishes uses ingredients that kids have traditionally found to be flat out yucky.
The synopsis reads: "In the next mystery box challenge, the junior home cooks must create a dish using 'food kids hate,' including liver, sardines and blue cheese. The winner of the challenge earns a sweet advantage in the next round. Later, in the elimination round, the kids have 90 minutes to create an impressive layer cake with at least three layers. Find out which desserts impressed the judges."
The next episode airs at 8 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 18 on Fox.
