After the first part of the MasterChef 2023 grand finale that was broadcast on Sunday, this Monday the moment of truth came to find out who gets the trophy and the juicy prize of 10 million pesos (plus the added yield that provided the Mercado Pago platform).
Yesterday, with the prominent leadership of Wanda Nara, it was possible to see the process of preparing the three-step menu requested by the jury made up of Donato de Santis, Damián Betular and Germán Martitegui.
For starters, Estefanía chose shrimp served in endive leaves and for the main course white salmon marinated with lime to add mashed peas and avocado. For dessert a key lime pie.
Rudy, for his part, chose a “menu with Mexican overtones.” For starters, a cold avocado soup, for main course some chiles en nogada -a recipe from his great-grandmother- and finally some tartlets with dulce de leche, for dessert.
Wanda Nara in off invited to briefly review how the finalists arrived
In the voice of the host, the passage of Estefanía, the social communicator of MasterChef, was reviewed. Next, Rodolfo was introduced, the Mexican who combines the typical flavors of his land. “Here is the specialist in royalty!” he exclaimed.
The moment of truth: the jury tests the entry
Each of you prepared three dishes. I invite you to come up with the three-step menu entry. Estefi presented his shrimp in endive leaves. Martitegui nodded smiling. Betular, he withdrew without grimacing and Donato tried with gestures of satisfaction. “Thank you so much. They flattered me on the dish, goal accomplished”, exclaimed Estef.
Meanwhile, Rudy went with his cold avocado soup. The jury was also satisfied with the result and gave gestures of approval. “You did everything that I would not have done, you surprised me,” criticized Martitegui. “But it went very well, it amazes me,” he closed to the joy of the Mexican.
After the return of the entrance, they looked for the main course
Wanda Nara indicated that they look for the main course. “It is a recipe that I have a lot of respect for, it is familiar and I dedicate a lot of time to it,” explained Rudy. Estefanía highlighted that she worked simply and that it did not take her long to do it.
After the historical explanation of the participant, the jury proceeded to prove it. With more tension than in the previous step, de Santis took the floor and highlighted the performance. Martitegui, acid as always, reproached him for not doing “anything” of what they asked. “The result is a very good dish with a very personal flavor,” indicated Germán. “I would have liked more spiciness but it is very good. Perfect second step”, highlighted Betular.
The turn of the return of Estefanía
After presenting again his main course. Martitegui tried and quickly withdrew. Betular made no gestures and Donato relaxed with expressions of gratitude for the taste.
Martitegui highlighted the puree that accompanied the salmon. “Congratulations, this main course is very consistent with what you did before,” said the toughest jury in the competition. Betular highlighted all the preparation and the conjugation of ingredients. “I agree that there is consistency,” he said.
Meanwhile, Donato de Santis highlighted the choice of Estef and invited his colleagues to mark that it is “another good dish of the night”.
The last step: the dessert
“Now the time has come for the dish that will define which of you is the winner!” Nara called. “I’m going to die in mine,” Rudy said. Estefanía was optimistic and highlighted the planning that she did to try to win the prize.
“May the best guys win,” the driver wished.
Key lime pie is Estefania’s dessert. Betular and de Santis mentioned the tension of the moment. Martitegui tried without expressions on her face. “Detailed and with precision, I like this dessert because it is very acid, good work”, was the return of the renowned pastry chef. De Santis asked for a little more crispy dough and Germán celebrated the preparation.
Rudy’s Featured Dessert
Rudy defended his tartlets with dulce de leche -or caramel, as he mentions-. The three jurors devoured the preparation with a single bite. “If I had to ask my pastry chef to ‘make me something explosive and sensual,’ I would ask for this,” joked the Italian-born chef. Martitegui, in a humorous tone, defined that it is a genius. “You have to have a lot of courage to leave this like this, it turned out very well for you,” he added. Betular was criticized for the banana used. “It is the closing of a well thought out menu”, he closed.
The closing of the finalists, excited
The two friends and great rivals hugged and Wanda Nara invited them to return to their positions in the kitchen. “Jurors to choose!” Nara invited.
The jury’s deliberation
“I have a favorite,” warned Martitegui. For his part, de Santis indicated that of the 6 dishes tested there is one that moves the scales. “Do we have a winner or a winner?” Betular asked and all three nodded.
Relatives and former finalites entered the kitchen
Excited, they received the blessing of the jury and beyond the nervousness, both were moved to tears. They changed places with the jury and went up on the chefs’ stage. “It is an honor and a pride to be here,” said Estef.
The jury’s decision
“The big winner or big winner of this edition of MasterChef Argentina It’s…” he left Santis on hold to go on to the traditional pause before the end.
The winner is… Rudy!
After the suspense in the break, the jury announced that Rudy is the winner of MasterChef 2023. “Thank you Argentina, my ex-colleagues, Teresa my mother, I want to thank everyone who is here”, said Rodolfo Vera Calderón before going on to raise his trophy, to the effusive applause and subsequent hug from the entire studio.
