It's the penultimate Junior MasterChef, | 0:00:02 | 0:00:05 | |
and at the end of today, four cooks will become three. | 0:00:05 | 0:00:09 | |
Phoebe, Mya, Amelie | 0:00:09 | 0:00:12 | |
and Barney are four of the best young cooks in the country. | 0:00:12 | 0:00:16 | |
And they're about to battle it out to see who will make it | 0:00:17 | 0:00:21 | |
through to tomorrow's final. | 0:00:21 | 0:00:22 | |
Inside I feel very nervous, cos it's elimination day, | 0:00:24 | 0:00:29 | |
but I think I can get through. | 0:00:29 | 0:00:31 | |
If I got a place in the final it would be really cool. | 0:00:33 | 0:00:36 | |
I just need to try my hardest. | 0:00:36 | 0:00:38 | |
I'm really excited about today, but a little bit nervous as well. | 0:00:40 | 0:00:43 | |
I don't think there's any room for error today. | 0:00:43 | 0:00:47 | |
I think I can get to the final three | 0:00:47 | 0:00:49 | |
of Junior MasterChef, | 0:00:49 | 0:00:50 | |
because my dish today is a really good one. | 0:00:50 | 0:00:53 | |
Junior MasterChef 2014, this is where it gets exciting. | 0:00:56 | 0:01:00 | |
I'm absolutely loving this competition. | 0:01:00 | 0:01:03 | |
First, they'll be given a masterclass | 0:01:05 | 0:01:07 | |
in the art of chocolate making. | 0:01:07 | 0:01:09 | |
I'm going to stay here forever. | 0:01:09 | 0:01:10 | |
Before returning to the Junior MasterChef kitchen and cooking | 0:01:10 | 0:01:13 | |
their best dessert for three of the harshest food critics in Britain. | 0:01:13 | 0:01:17 | |
You know, we're judging this and just telling it like it is. | 0:01:17 | 0:01:21 | |
At the end, one of them will be going home. | 0:01:22 | 0:01:25 | |
It's early morning in London's Soho, and the four semifinalists are about | 0:01:35 | 0:01:39 | |
to get the world's tastiest masterclass. | 0:01:39 | 0:01:42 | |
Ladies. | 0:01:51 | 0:01:53 | |
-Hi, guys. -Hi. -How are you doing? -Hi. -Good. -Good. | 0:01:53 | 0:01:57 | |
My name's Paul A. Young, I'm a master chocolatier, | 0:01:57 | 0:02:00 | |
and today I'm going to show you how to make chocolates. | 0:02:00 | 0:02:04 | |
-Feeling creative? ALL: -Yes. | 0:02:04 | 0:02:05 | |
Follow me down to the chocolate kitchen and we'll get going. | 0:02:05 | 0:02:07 | |
Ah, I'm dribbling. | 0:02:07 | 0:02:09 | |
Today, the contestants will have to design their own chocolate bars, | 0:02:13 | 0:02:17 | |
but first, master chocolatier Paul will show them how it's done. | 0:02:17 | 0:02:21 | |
Ooh. | 0:02:22 | 0:02:23 | |
Take a palette knife, we're going to spread it out across the bench | 0:02:27 | 0:02:31 | |
like you're icing a cake, so it's spread, backwards and forwards. | 0:02:31 | 0:02:35 | |
Paul starts by controlling the temperature of the chocolate, | 0:02:35 | 0:02:38 | |
by cooling it and mixing at the same time. | 0:02:38 | 0:02:42 | |
This is called tempering, | 0:02:42 | 0:02:44 | |
and will give the chocolate a glossy sheen and perfect texture. | 0:02:44 | 0:02:48 | |
-Are you ready to go? -Yeah. | 0:02:48 | 0:02:50 | |
-Are you ready to get messy? -Yeah! | 0:02:50 | 0:02:53 | |
Weeee! | 0:02:53 | 0:02:54 | |
First, they have to temper their own chocolate. | 0:02:56 | 0:02:59 | |
You scrape in. | 0:03:00 | 0:03:02 | |
It's so cool. | 0:03:02 | 0:03:04 | |
Who's the cleanest and who's the messiest? | 0:03:04 | 0:03:07 | |
Then they need to select the ingredients to flavour | 0:03:07 | 0:03:10 | |
the chocolate with. | 0:03:10 | 0:03:11 | |
-Mmm. -So this one's crystallised mint. -Ah. | 0:03:11 | 0:03:14 | |
This one's freeze-dried raspberry. | 0:03:14 | 0:03:17 | |
I'm looking forward to these. | 0:03:17 | 0:03:18 | |
I'm doing coffee and cocoa. | 0:03:18 | 0:03:22 | |
Dried raspberry and some white chocolate. | 0:03:22 | 0:03:25 | |
I'm going to be doing red peppercorn with popcorn. | 0:03:25 | 0:03:28 | |
Oh, that's so nice. It smells really peppery. | 0:03:28 | 0:03:32 | |
Wow, that's going to be nice and spicy. | 0:03:32 | 0:03:34 | |
A cumin topping. Put some coffee beans inside. | 0:03:34 | 0:03:39 | |
Next, they layer the flavours into their moulds. | 0:03:40 | 0:03:44 | |
And cover them in the chocolate. | 0:03:44 | 0:03:46 | |
That's what I mean, that looks really good. | 0:03:46 | 0:03:48 | |
I love milk chocolate, can't live without it. | 0:03:48 | 0:03:52 | |
We've got some future master chocolatiers here, I think. | 0:03:52 | 0:03:55 | |
-My mum really wants me to be a chocolatier. -Does she? -Yeah. -Right. | 0:03:55 | 0:03:58 | |
We can sort that out. | 0:04:00 | 0:04:01 | |
The secret is to bang the mould, to take the air bubbles out | 0:04:02 | 0:04:06 | |
and to mix the ingredients in. | 0:04:06 | 0:04:08 | |
Looking good, guys. | 0:04:08 | 0:04:09 | |
Finally, it's the yummy toppings. | 0:04:09 | 0:04:12 | |
I'm loving this, I'm going to stay here forever. | 0:04:15 | 0:04:18 | |
Mmm, that's good. | 0:04:18 | 0:04:19 | |
After 15 minutes cooling in the fridge, it's the moment of truth. | 0:04:22 | 0:04:26 | |
Ta-dah! | 0:04:26 | 0:04:27 | |
Tasting time. | 0:04:27 | 0:04:29 | |
I just love that beautiful crunch. | 0:04:29 | 0:04:30 | |
-I do, I agree. -In the seeds. | 0:04:30 | 0:04:32 | |
I like the kind of corniness from the popcorn, | 0:04:32 | 0:04:35 | |
and you get a hint of mint. | 0:04:35 | 0:04:37 | |
-I got quite a big bit of chilli then. -Sorry. | 0:04:37 | 0:04:40 | |
It's amazing, I really, | 0:04:40 | 0:04:41 | |
really like how you mix the white chocolate with the milk chocolate. | 0:04:41 | 0:04:45 | |
-It smells really nice. -Mmm. | 0:04:45 | 0:04:48 | |
-Mmm, have you enjoyed it? ALL: -Yeah! | 0:04:48 | 0:04:51 | |
Enjoy your bars, and I hope to see you again soon, | 0:04:51 | 0:04:53 | |
making fantastic chocolates. | 0:04:53 | 0:04:55 | |
Thank you very much. | 0:04:55 | 0:04:56 | |
-You're very welcome. Take care, bye. -Thank you. -Take care. -Bye. | 0:04:56 | 0:05:00 | |
That's the first time I've ever made my chocolate bars, | 0:05:05 | 0:05:07 | |
and I was really happy with how they looked. | 0:05:07 | 0:05:10 | |
I learned how to make chocolate with weird ingredients in it, | 0:05:10 | 0:05:14 | |
and you think it's disgusting, but it's actually really good. | 0:05:14 | 0:05:17 | |
I've never eaten so much chocolate in my life. | 0:05:17 | 0:05:21 | |
I'm really keen to stay till the end of the competition now, | 0:05:21 | 0:05:23 | |
because I've done so well to get this far. | 0:05:23 | 0:05:26 | |
Our four are on their way back from their chocolate masterclass, | 0:05:29 | 0:05:33 | |
and now it gets really tough | 0:05:33 | 0:05:34 | |
because they're going to have to make their ultimate dessert. | 0:05:34 | 0:05:37 | |
Not just for you and I, but for restaurant critics. | 0:05:37 | 0:05:40 | |
Who is going to make the final three? | 0:05:40 | 0:05:42 | |
Who is going to fall at the last hurdle? | 0:05:42 | 0:05:44 | |
This is going to be their toughest challenge yet. | 0:05:44 | 0:05:47 | |
Welcome back, guys. | 0:06:02 | 0:06:04 | |
Things now are going to get very tough, | 0:06:04 | 0:06:06 | |
because you are cooking for a place in the final. | 0:06:06 | 0:06:10 | |
Today, you are cooking not just for Donal and I, | 0:06:13 | 0:06:16 | |
you are cooking for restaurant critics. | 0:06:16 | 0:06:18 | |
Tracey MacLeod, Charles Campion and Will Sitwell. | 0:06:18 | 0:06:23 | |
Chefs shake and quiver when they walk into their restaurants. | 0:06:25 | 0:06:29 | |
Don't let 'em scare you. | 0:06:32 | 0:06:34 | |
One hour, your greatest dessert ever. | 0:06:35 | 0:06:39 | |
Ladies and gentlemen, let's cook. | 0:06:40 | 0:06:42 | |
Remember, if you try this at home, | 0:06:44 | 0:06:46 | |
make sure you have a responsible adult with you. | 0:06:46 | 0:06:49 | |
I have seen the critics before on TV, and they judge you really hard, | 0:07:02 | 0:07:06 | |
so I need to make sure that everything I do is perfect. | 0:07:06 | 0:07:10 | |
It will be a bit scary, | 0:07:10 | 0:07:12 | |
but it's good to get feedback from really high up people. | 0:07:12 | 0:07:16 | |
Phoebe, the toughest challenge yet, | 0:07:22 | 0:07:23 | |
cooking for that place in the all-important final. | 0:07:23 | 0:07:26 | |
How do you feel? | 0:07:26 | 0:07:27 | |
I'm feeling quite excited, but a bit nervous. | 0:07:27 | 0:07:29 | |
What are you going to cook for the critics? | 0:07:29 | 0:07:31 | |
Mini ginger sponge layers with a stem ginger cream, | 0:07:31 | 0:07:35 | |
with spiced, poached pears. | 0:07:35 | 0:07:38 | |
Ooh. | 0:07:38 | 0:07:39 | |
Phoebe, you come at every challenge with a great big, smile on your face. | 0:07:39 | 0:07:42 | |
Do you think you can win this competition? | 0:07:42 | 0:07:44 | |
I've got as good a chance as anyone else does. | 0:07:44 | 0:07:46 | |
The last time you cooked a dessert for us, | 0:07:46 | 0:07:49 | |
-it didn't really work, did it? -This time it will. | 0:07:49 | 0:07:51 | |
It'll be fine. | 0:07:53 | 0:07:54 | |
Stay focused. Good on you. | 0:07:54 | 0:07:57 | |
This is here. There's nowhere to hide with Phoebe's dessert. | 0:08:02 | 0:08:05 | |
The sponge has to be perfect, the cream's got to be perfect, | 0:08:05 | 0:08:07 | |
the pears have got to be perfect. | 0:08:07 | 0:08:08 | |
If those pears aren't poached all the way through, we've got a hard pear | 0:08:08 | 0:08:11 | |
and a soft bit of sponge, it's hard to get right. | 0:08:11 | 0:08:14 | |
If she can bring all those beautiful layers together of this | 0:08:14 | 0:08:17 | |
wonderful dish, I think we are in for a treat with Phoebe's dessert. | 0:08:17 | 0:08:21 | |
Wow. | 0:08:24 | 0:08:26 | |
I'm best at desserts, cos I grew up in baking. | 0:08:26 | 0:08:30 | |
Desserts is definitely my expertise. | 0:08:30 | 0:08:32 | |
-G'day, Mya. -Hi. -How you doing? -Good. | 0:08:39 | 0:08:43 | |
Tell us what you're going to make. | 0:08:43 | 0:08:45 | |
I'm making raspberry and rose petal shortcakes. | 0:08:45 | 0:08:48 | |
Raspberry and rose petal shortcakes. Very simple flavours, done right. | 0:08:48 | 0:08:53 | |
Well, my main thing is, keep it simple but make it delicious. | 0:08:53 | 0:08:58 | |
It should be enough to impress the critics and get me through | 0:08:58 | 0:09:01 | |
to the final three. | 0:09:01 | 0:09:03 | |
Mya talks about simplicity with clean, crisp flavours, | 0:09:06 | 0:09:10 | |
and that's exactly what she's got to deliver | 0:09:10 | 0:09:12 | |
because there are not a lot of ingredients on Mya's bench. | 0:09:12 | 0:09:15 | |
She's stripped it right back and it could be a bit of a risk | 0:09:15 | 0:09:18 | |
because she has left herself wide open. | 0:09:18 | 0:09:20 | |
She needs to make sure that every aspect of this dessert is | 0:09:20 | 0:09:24 | |
absolute perfection. | 0:09:24 | 0:09:26 | |
It's quite nerve-racking, cooking for restaurant critics, | 0:09:32 | 0:09:37 | |
but it's also really exciting, cos if it passes the test, | 0:09:37 | 0:09:41 | |
then it means that I'm a really good cook. | 0:09:41 | 0:09:44 | |
Amelie, how are you feeling? | 0:09:51 | 0:09:53 | |
I'm feeling really confident because | 0:09:53 | 0:09:55 | |
this dish is going to go really well. | 0:09:55 | 0:09:57 | |
And tell us what this dish is. | 0:09:57 | 0:09:59 | |
I'm making a rhubarb and custard brulee, | 0:09:59 | 0:10:03 | |
because it highlights my Anglo-French roots. | 0:10:03 | 0:10:08 | |
Amelie, creme brulee is one of the toughest things to perfect | 0:10:08 | 0:10:12 | |
because it's such a classic, but what can go wrong? | 0:10:12 | 0:10:15 | |
The only thing that can go wrong is the custard | 0:10:15 | 0:10:18 | |
because, if you add the egg too quickly or you have the | 0:10:18 | 0:10:21 | |
hob on too high, then it turns into scrambled eggs. | 0:10:21 | 0:10:25 | |
We don't want any scrambled eggs. | 0:10:25 | 0:10:27 | |
No scrambled eggs, thank you very much. | 0:10:27 | 0:10:28 | |
Amelie, how important would it be to make the final three? | 0:10:28 | 0:10:32 | |
It would be really important | 0:10:32 | 0:10:33 | |
and it would be like, "Yay, I'm a good cook!" | 0:10:33 | 0:10:36 | |
Will you do exactly that when you celebrate? | 0:10:36 | 0:10:38 | |
Yay, I'm a good cook! | 0:10:38 | 0:10:40 | |
Well, you've a lot to do in a short amount of time, | 0:10:40 | 0:10:43 | |
so you have to stay focused, and the best of luck. | 0:10:43 | 0:10:45 | |
Thank you. | 0:10:45 | 0:10:46 | |
Amelie is promising us rhubarb and custard brulee, | 0:10:51 | 0:10:54 | |
but getting a creme brulee right is difficult, | 0:10:54 | 0:10:56 | |
cos that custard can curdle very, very easily. | 0:10:56 | 0:10:59 | |
I've got to admit, I am really excited about Amelie's dessert, | 0:10:59 | 0:11:02 | |
rhubarb and custard, and it's a brilliant riff, | 0:11:02 | 0:11:05 | |
using creme brulee to bring it together. | 0:11:05 | 0:11:07 | |
If she can bring this dessert to the table, | 0:11:07 | 0:11:09 | |
and have it perfectly executed, I think we are | 0:11:09 | 0:11:12 | |
going to have a really good competition on our hands. | 0:11:12 | 0:11:15 | |
My game plan today is to impress the judges, | 0:11:24 | 0:11:27 | |
impress the restaurant critics, and hopefully get through to the | 0:11:27 | 0:11:30 | |
three finalists of Junior MasterChef. | 0:11:30 | 0:11:32 | |
Barney. What sort of brave thing are you making today, Barney? | 0:11:37 | 0:11:40 | |
I'm making a raspberry and almond souffle. | 0:11:40 | 0:11:44 | |
-You look surprised. -I am. | 0:11:46 | 0:11:48 | |
With a raspberry and almond fruit salad, with a raspberry | 0:11:48 | 0:11:54 | |
and almond smoothie and a vanilla Chantilly cream. | 0:11:54 | 0:11:59 | |
-Are your souffles in the oven already? -Yes. | 0:11:59 | 0:12:02 | |
-And how long will they take to cook? -25 minutes. | 0:12:02 | 0:12:04 | |
-Will they not fall before you serve them? -Hopefully not. | 0:12:04 | 0:12:09 | |
How many times have you made this before, Barney? | 0:12:09 | 0:12:11 | |
Five times, never failed. | 0:12:11 | 0:12:13 | |
Wow. That is serious confidence right there. | 0:12:13 | 0:12:15 | |
Barney, good luck, mate | 0:12:15 | 0:12:17 | |
A souffle is a lightly baked pudding, made with egg whites. | 0:12:20 | 0:12:24 | |
It's a tricky dessert to perfect, and can collapse very easily. | 0:12:24 | 0:12:28 | |
Wow, there's a lot going on that plate. | 0:12:28 | 0:12:31 | |
I think it could all work together, | 0:12:31 | 0:12:33 | |
but it really relies upon one thing working, and that is that souffle. | 0:12:33 | 0:12:37 | |
I think the dessert Barney has chosen to make for us | 0:12:37 | 0:12:39 | |
today is really a big risk. | 0:12:39 | 0:12:42 | |
I don't know that he needs all those extra elements. | 0:12:42 | 0:12:45 | |
I think if he perfects the souffle, that's all he needs, | 0:12:45 | 0:12:48 | |
but maybe I'll be surprised, maybe those extra elements will bring | 0:12:48 | 0:12:51 | |
something special that will wow both me, and the critics. | 0:12:51 | 0:12:53 | |
The critics are coming. | 0:13:01 | 0:13:04 | |
The very people who tell restaurant chefs | 0:13:04 | 0:13:07 | |
if their food is any good or not. | 0:13:07 | 0:13:09 | |
It's a great challenge, MasterChef. | 0:13:10 | 0:13:13 | |
Being able to take it on at such a young age is really, | 0:13:13 | 0:13:18 | |
really difficult. | 0:13:18 | 0:13:19 | |
Well, as restaurant critics, | 0:13:19 | 0:13:20 | |
I suppose we're always looking for fresh talent. | 0:13:20 | 0:13:23 | |
It doesn't get any fresher than the contestants on Junior MasterChef. | 0:13:23 | 0:13:26 | |
It's an amazing achievement to be here. | 0:13:28 | 0:13:30 | |
You know, we're judging this as we judge all food - honestly, | 0:13:30 | 0:13:34 | |
thoughtfully, and just telling it like it is. | 0:13:34 | 0:13:37 | |
Nice. | 0:13:47 | 0:13:48 | |
So Phoebe's doing layered ginger sponge and spiced, poached | 0:13:57 | 0:14:01 | |
pears with ginger cream, which is actually quite sophisticated. | 0:14:01 | 0:14:03 | |
I like the way that she's done something a bit adventurous. | 0:14:03 | 0:14:06 | |
There's a bit of baking in there, poaching of the pears, | 0:14:06 | 0:14:09 | |
there's a little bit of technique in there, | 0:14:09 | 0:14:11 | |
so it'll be good to see how well she does with this. | 0:14:11 | 0:14:13 | |
What else has to go on the plate? | 0:14:18 | 0:14:20 | |
Just this quenelle of cream | 0:14:20 | 0:14:21 | |
and then I'm going to put a little bit of stem ginger. | 0:14:21 | 0:14:25 | |
Come on then, let's go. | 0:14:25 | 0:14:26 | |
Time to face the critics. | 0:14:28 | 0:14:29 | |
Thanks, Phoebe. | 0:14:41 | 0:14:43 | |
Today, I've made for you ginger sponge layered with a ginger stem, | 0:14:43 | 0:14:48 | |
cream and spiced, poached pears. | 0:14:48 | 0:14:50 | |
-Thank you. -Thank you very much. -Thank you. | 0:14:50 | 0:14:52 | |
It's a lovely golden colour, it looks, to me, well baked, | 0:14:56 | 0:14:59 | |
and I like the way she's layered it up. | 0:14:59 | 0:15:00 | |
I really like this. You've got the texture of the sponge, | 0:15:10 | 0:15:13 | |
the texture of the pear, and the pear isn't overcooked, | 0:15:13 | 0:15:15 | |
there's a bit of crunch in it. | 0:15:15 | 0:15:17 | |
Then you've got that wonderful softness of the cream. | 0:15:17 | 0:15:19 | |
It's a sweet little piece of heaven. I love it. | 0:15:19 | 0:15:23 | |
Phoebe has managed to integrate the elements of the dish really nicely. | 0:15:23 | 0:15:27 | |
Love the glace ginger, I think it's very nice indeed. | 0:15:27 | 0:15:32 | |
I shall have some more. | 0:15:32 | 0:15:33 | |
It's not walloping us with that ginger flavour. | 0:15:33 | 0:15:35 | |
It's very subtle and it works terribly well with the pears. | 0:15:35 | 0:15:39 | |
I think she's done really well. | 0:15:39 | 0:15:41 | |
Mmm, wow. That is a really good dish. | 0:15:42 | 0:15:47 | |
Mmm hmm. It looks good, it tastes good. | 0:15:47 | 0:15:49 | |
They're the boxes you need to tick. | 0:15:49 | 0:15:52 | |
Oh... It was quite scary walking in the room and seeing the three | 0:15:52 | 0:15:57 | |
critics because I was just like, "Oh, don't drop the plate." | 0:15:57 | 0:16:00 | |
I'm feeling really happy and excited cos I think it went really well. | 0:16:01 | 0:16:06 | |
Do you know how to use a glove puppet? Look, 'Hello.' | 0:16:10 | 0:16:14 | |
-Oh. -OK. | 0:16:14 | 0:16:15 | |
OK, never done this but... | 0:16:18 | 0:16:19 | |
Tastes OK. | 0:16:21 | 0:16:23 | |
Mya is doing a raspberry and rose petal shortcake. | 0:16:23 | 0:16:27 | |
Which could be very nice, if it's not too dry. | 0:16:31 | 0:16:33 | |
Three minutes. | 0:16:33 | 0:16:35 | |
Looking good, smells great. | 0:16:36 | 0:16:37 | |
Mmm-mmm. Beautiful. | 0:16:37 | 0:16:40 | |
It's like you've done this before, Mya. | 0:16:40 | 0:16:43 | |
Ah, this is where the roses go. | 0:16:43 | 0:16:45 | |
-Are you happy to go? -Yeah. | 0:16:48 | 0:16:49 | |
To the critics you go. | 0:16:49 | 0:16:51 | |
-Good luck, Mya. -Good luck. | 0:16:51 | 0:16:52 | |
Thank you. | 0:16:52 | 0:16:53 | |
Thank you. | 0:16:58 | 0:17:00 | |
You've got raspberry and rose petal shortcakes. | 0:17:00 | 0:17:04 | |
So have you flavoured your shortcakes with rose petal? | 0:17:04 | 0:17:07 | |
I've flavoured the cream with rose petals. | 0:17:07 | 0:17:09 | |
The shortcakes are flavoured with vanilla. | 0:17:09 | 0:17:12 | |
Looks lovely, thank you. | 0:17:12 | 0:17:13 | |
Well, I think that looks very nice. | 0:17:19 | 0:17:21 | |
Two shortbread biscuits, held apart by a few raspberries. | 0:17:21 | 0:17:25 | |
I look forward to it. | 0:17:25 | 0:17:27 | |
I hope that she hasn't overdone it on the rose water, | 0:17:27 | 0:17:29 | |
cos what she's shown us here looks quite simple. | 0:17:29 | 0:17:31 | |
Well, it's a very nice shortbread biscuit, not too sweet, | 0:17:38 | 0:17:43 | |
good texture, vanilla after tones, | 0:17:43 | 0:17:45 | |
I would be very proud to have made a biscuit like that. | 0:17:45 | 0:17:48 | |
There is a problem in that the cream does taste too much of rose water, | 0:17:48 | 0:17:52 | |
which is a shame. | 0:17:52 | 0:17:54 | |
And I actually like the taste of rose water, so this cream is not | 0:17:54 | 0:17:58 | |
too floral for me, but it is a bit of a love it or hate it ingredient. | 0:17:58 | 0:18:03 | |
Punchy little number, this one, isn't it? | 0:18:09 | 0:18:12 | |
There is a whacking amount of rose water. | 0:18:12 | 0:18:15 | |
I'm really impressed with this, and I love the presentation, | 0:18:15 | 0:18:17 | |
but for me, there is too much rose water in that cream. | 0:18:17 | 0:18:20 | |
I'm feeling really excited, a little bit nervous | 0:18:24 | 0:18:26 | |
but really happy that it's done. | 0:18:26 | 0:18:28 | |
Amelie, you've got ten minutes | 0:18:31 | 0:18:33 | |
I'm on schedule then. | 0:18:33 | 0:18:34 | |
At least, I think I am. | 0:18:36 | 0:18:39 | |
Amelie is cooking for us rhubarb and custard brulee with ginger biscuits. | 0:18:39 | 0:18:45 | |
I must confess there is a magic word there, custard. | 0:18:45 | 0:18:49 | |
I really like the sound of this. | 0:18:49 | 0:18:51 | |
It's a challenging dish to cook. | 0:18:51 | 0:18:53 | |
If she does it, I'll be very impressed. | 0:18:53 | 0:18:55 | |
BEEPING | 0:18:55 | 0:18:56 | |
Finishing touches, Amelie. | 0:19:07 | 0:19:08 | |
You ready to face the critics? | 0:19:08 | 0:19:10 | |
Yep, and I've finished them as well. | 0:19:10 | 0:19:12 | |
Good luck. Off you go. | 0:19:12 | 0:19:14 | |
Thank you. | 0:19:19 | 0:19:20 | |
Thank you very much. | 0:19:20 | 0:19:22 | |
Today I've made a rhubarb and custard brulee with ginger biscuits. | 0:19:22 | 0:19:28 | |
I made this dish because of my Anglo-French roots. | 0:19:28 | 0:19:32 | |
I thought creme brulee and rhubarb, rhubarb from Yorkshire | 0:19:32 | 0:19:36 | |
and creme brulee from France. | 0:19:36 | 0:19:38 | |
Thank you very much. | 0:19:38 | 0:19:40 | |
Thank you. | 0:19:40 | 0:19:41 | |
The creme brulee looks spot on, good bit of blowtorching there. | 0:19:44 | 0:19:47 | |
It's nice to see a proper crisp top. | 0:19:47 | 0:19:51 | |
It's a really good creme brulee. | 0:19:59 | 0:20:02 | |
Creamy, nice texture, nice bit of sharpness from the rhubarb. | 0:20:02 | 0:20:07 | |
It's a really good thing. | 0:20:07 | 0:20:09 | |
That custard is absolutely gorgeous. | 0:20:09 | 0:20:13 | |
That is as delicious | 0:20:13 | 0:20:14 | |
and as perfect a creme brulee as you might wish to have. | 0:20:14 | 0:20:17 | |
I think that worked really, really well. | 0:20:17 | 0:20:19 | |
She should be very proud of herself. | 0:20:19 | 0:20:21 | |
Amelie's ideas here are absolutely right. | 0:20:26 | 0:20:29 | |
Rich, sweet custard, that crunchy top of sugar which was | 0:20:29 | 0:20:32 | |
perfectly done, with rhubarb sitting underneath. | 0:20:32 | 0:20:35 | |
But the issue here was the rhubarb could be cooked a little bit more. | 0:20:35 | 0:20:38 | |
As a creme brulee goes, this isn't half bad. | 0:20:38 | 0:20:40 | |
You've got that wonderful crunchy topping. | 0:20:40 | 0:20:42 | |
I'm really impressed with that, | 0:20:42 | 0:20:44 | |
because not many people get it right. | 0:20:44 | 0:20:46 | |
All in all, a pretty strong attempt at a creme brulee. | 0:20:46 | 0:20:49 | |
Ah, it's really nerve-racking cooking for three MasterChef critics | 0:20:51 | 0:20:56 | |
because they know a lot about food, | 0:20:56 | 0:21:00 | |
and you've got to make sure that your dishes are perfect. | 0:21:00 | 0:21:03 | |
I'm really happy because that was the best creme brulee I've | 0:21:04 | 0:21:07 | |
ever made. | 0:21:07 | 0:21:08 | |
Barney, you've got nine minutes left. | 0:21:12 | 0:21:14 | |
Feel OK? | 0:21:15 | 0:21:16 | |
Well, Barney's given us raspberry and almond pudding, | 0:21:18 | 0:21:21 | |
with toasted almond and raspberry salad, | 0:21:21 | 0:21:23 | |
vanilla Chantilly cream, and an almond and raspberry smoothie. | 0:21:23 | 0:21:28 | |
Do you need to whisk it harder? | 0:21:28 | 0:21:31 | |
If Barney manages to get through his long work list, I think | 0:21:31 | 0:21:36 | |
it could be very good indeed. | 0:21:36 | 0:21:38 | |
Barney, you have one minute left. Final touches now, please. | 0:21:38 | 0:21:43 | |
-You done? -Yep. | 0:21:43 | 0:21:44 | |
Good man. Put a smile on your face. | 0:21:44 | 0:21:46 | |
Thank you. | 0:21:53 | 0:21:55 | |
I've cooked you today a raspberry and almond souffle pudding, a fruit | 0:21:55 | 0:22:00 | |
salad with a raspberry smoothie and a vanilla Chantilly cream. | 0:22:00 | 0:22:06 | |
You've got a thing about raspberries and almonds, I guess. | 0:22:06 | 0:22:09 | |
-Yeah. -Yeah. -Thank you. | 0:22:09 | 0:22:12 | |
The souffle looks a little bit raggedy, | 0:22:16 | 0:22:19 | |
but frankly, it's all on the flavour. | 0:22:19 | 0:22:22 | |
-The smoothie, a thing of beauty, even matches my loom band. -Cheers. | 0:22:22 | 0:22:26 | |
The souffle is a kind of souffled sponge. | 0:22:37 | 0:22:41 | |
It hasn't done ten out of ten, but it's done eight out of ten. | 0:22:41 | 0:22:46 | |
This is better than some of the things we've been | 0:22:46 | 0:22:48 | |
given in the grown-up versions of MasterChef. | 0:22:48 | 0:22:52 | |
Apart from its appearance, it's really tasty. | 0:22:52 | 0:22:55 | |
I think, you know, even though we thought raspberry and almond, | 0:22:55 | 0:22:58 | |
raspberry and almond, could be a bit repetitive, | 0:22:58 | 0:23:00 | |
he's found different ways of bringing those flavours together, | 0:23:00 | 0:23:03 | |
and it's a lovely, original, delicious plateful. | 0:23:03 | 0:23:06 | |
I don't think the souffle's as good as it could be, | 0:23:11 | 0:23:14 | |
but Barney's put in a huge amount of work. | 0:23:14 | 0:23:16 | |
You're right, serious effort has gone in here, and I think | 0:23:16 | 0:23:19 | |
he really wanted to show us the skill that he has in the kitchen. | 0:23:19 | 0:23:22 | |
I'm feeling very disappointed. | 0:23:26 | 0:23:27 | |
The souffles didn't come out very well. | 0:23:30 | 0:23:33 | |
I think this is the toughest challenge that I've had | 0:23:35 | 0:23:38 | |
so far in Junior MasterChef. | 0:23:38 | 0:23:40 | |
Great day, four brilliant cooks. | 0:23:54 | 0:23:56 | |
I've got to say, really brilliant cooks. | 0:23:56 | 0:23:58 | |
I'm really impressed with how they performed. | 0:23:58 | 0:24:01 | |
I thought Phoebe's dessert was almost faultless. | 0:24:01 | 0:24:04 | |
All together, really, really impressive dessert from Phoebe. | 0:24:05 | 0:24:09 | |
I'd eat the whole lot. | 0:24:09 | 0:24:10 | |
I'm very proud of what I've done today, | 0:24:12 | 0:24:14 | |
cos I tried my hardest, so that's all I can do. | 0:24:14 | 0:24:18 | |
Mya presented us with a very pretty dish. | 0:24:18 | 0:24:21 | |
Presentation wise, Mya is absolutely flawless. | 0:24:21 | 0:24:24 | |
However, what was quite overpowering for me | 0:24:24 | 0:24:26 | |
was the rose water in the cream. | 0:24:26 | 0:24:28 | |
I liked the dessert. | 0:24:28 | 0:24:30 | |
Saying that, that cream was over-whipped by a touch, | 0:24:30 | 0:24:33 | |
and the rose water was very, very powerful. | 0:24:33 | 0:24:36 | |
I think it's really important that I impress with that dish, but | 0:24:36 | 0:24:39 | |
obviously I've got really, really far, but hopefully it goes well. | 0:24:39 | 0:24:44 | |
Serious creativity from Amelie at her bench today. | 0:24:47 | 0:24:51 | |
Rhubarb and custard is a wonderful, wonderful thing. | 0:24:51 | 0:24:53 | |
I admire Amelie's adventure. | 0:24:53 | 0:24:55 | |
I like that she's taking a classic and playing with it. | 0:24:55 | 0:24:58 | |
I think I've done enough to get | 0:24:58 | 0:25:00 | |
myself into the Junior MasterChef finals, but we'll just have to see. | 0:25:00 | 0:25:04 | |
Barney today flew the flag of bravery. | 0:25:06 | 0:25:09 | |
The star of the show, that souffle, I think he brought it | 0:25:09 | 0:25:12 | |
out of the oven too early, but the rest of it, I really liked. | 0:25:12 | 0:25:15 | |
You look at what Barney achieved in that small amount of time, | 0:25:15 | 0:25:19 | |
and it is really impressive. | 0:25:19 | 0:25:21 | |
If I went home today, I would feel proud but a little bit disappointed. | 0:25:21 | 0:25:27 | |
This is going to be a very hard decision to make. | 0:25:28 | 0:25:31 | |
Guys, incredible work today. | 0:25:44 | 0:25:47 | |
I think both myself and John are really, | 0:25:47 | 0:25:49 | |
really proud of what you've done, | 0:25:49 | 0:25:51 | |
and you've showed us some incredible skills, some impressive enthusiasm | 0:25:51 | 0:25:56 | |
and passion for cooking, and that's exactly what we're looking for. | 0:25:56 | 0:25:59 | |
Our critics were blown away with what you did today. | 0:25:59 | 0:26:03 | |
However, we've made a decision. | 0:26:03 | 0:26:05 | |
The person who is leaving us today is... | 0:26:12 | 0:26:16 | |
Mya. | 0:26:22 | 0:26:23 | |
I think you did really well. | 0:26:25 | 0:26:26 | |
-Well done. Thank you so much. -Very much indeed. -Well done | 0:26:26 | 0:26:29 | |
APPLAUSE | 0:26:29 | 0:26:30 | |
I've had a lot of fun and I don't think it could have been better. | 0:26:33 | 0:26:37 | |
I'm really, really, really proud of myself, | 0:26:39 | 0:26:42 | |
and I'm not going to stop cooking. | 0:26:42 | 0:26:44 | |
Our final three. | 0:26:44 | 0:26:46 | |
Well done. You cook again. | 0:26:47 | 0:26:50 | |
Just think, one of you three is going to be our champion. | 0:26:50 | 0:26:54 | |
We'll see you guys in the final. | 0:26:54 | 0:26:56 | |
I'm feeling really happy right now. | 0:26:58 | 0:27:00 | |
I'm going to do a lot of celebrating tonight. | 0:27:01 | 0:27:03 | |
It's fantastic, | 0:27:06 | 0:27:07 | |
and now I'm one of the final three of Junior MasterChef. | 0:27:07 | 0:27:10 | |
Usain. | 0:27:10 | 0:27:12 | |
I'm still the last boy, hopefully all the boys out there | 0:27:12 | 0:27:15 | |
will say, "Go on, boy, keep going." | 0:27:15 | 0:27:18 | |
It feels really cool to be in the finals. | 0:27:19 | 0:27:22 | |
I really didn't expect it, so I'm really happy with myself. | 0:27:22 | 0:27:26 | |
I'm not really too sure how I'll celebrate. | 0:27:26 | 0:27:29 | |
I'll just go home and watch TV! | 0:27:29 | 0:27:35 | |
I think he's crying with happiness | 0:27:35 | 0:27:38 | |
I want a group hug. | 0:27:38 | 0:27:40 | |
Next, it's the final day of the competition. | 0:27:46 | 0:27:50 | |
It's delicious. | 0:27:50 | 0:27:51 | |
Our Junior MasterChef champion 2014 is... | 0:27:51 | 0:27:57 |
