Ena was hoping for immunity, but ended up in a stress test: I don't agree with the judges' decision

This article reports on a recent episode of the Croatian version of the cooking competition show 'MasterChef'. Contestants were tasked with preparing American classics under time pressure, using a shared timer that added tactical complexity to the challenge. While contestants from both teams presented their dishes, judges specifically praised Monika and Juan for their creative interpretations. Monika secured immunity for the week by creating a deconstructed burger featuring cooked onions, minced meat, and a gorgonzola-cucumber emulsion. Conversely, Jakov, Ena, Dominik, and Andrea were sent to the stress test due to specific technical flaws such as dry meat, excessive cheese, foam issues, and a lack of creativity. Ena publicly expressed disagreement with the judges' feedback regarding her Philly cheesesteak, while Andrea voiced disappointment over being criticized for lacking creativity.

The new gastroduel at MasterChef was a problem, Mirjana made a big mistake

A new episode of the Croatian version of MasterChef featured a 'gastroduel' challenge focused on pairing food with wine. Contestants received training from sommelier Kristijan Harjac before being tasked with preparing three courses within 90 minutes. Team compositions were altered due to health issues and absences, leading to a dispute over which contestant would join the red team led by Mirjana. The blue team held a strategic advantage, allowing them to consult their mentor briefly during cooking. Mirjana faced significant difficulties after accidentally leaving some ingredients at the store and placing others in the wrong shopping basket, resulting in missing items for her team's dessert course.
