Emotion took over the set of MasterChef Celebrity during Monday's broadcast as contestants were challenged to prepare a dish that would take them back to their past. The first to break down in tears was Wanda Nara, who nostalgically remembered a dessert her grandmother used to make but could never replicate. 'It was an apple tart that I make, but it never comes out like hers... I can't talk about it,' she said before bursting into tears. 'I'm always trying, but I never find that flavor again.' Her grandson, who sometimes arrived late, couldn't always manage to eat it. 'I'm left with the anguish of not having learned it,' she explained, overcome with emotion. Faced with the host's visible distress, the three chef judges—Donato de Santis, Damián Betular, and Germán Martitegui—approached her to hug and comfort her. Without losing her sense of humor, she fired back at the baker: 'Yours doesn't turn out either either.' How the night of MasterChef Celebrity went All participants in white aprons presented dishes that reminded them of their childhood and past emotional moments, generating emotion both from them and the judges. Ultimately, the judges made the unexpected decision not to send any of them to the elimination gala, instead inviting all of them up to the balcony. The standout dishes of the night were from Cachete Sierra, who received the gold medal, while Turco Husain received the silver.
