For the first time, MasterChef alumni and newcomers share the kitchen and, right off the bat, serve the judges' menus to 100 guests. The pressure mounts with a tower of French pastries that has to impress without collapsing before judging.

The premiere is behind them, and the cooks return with greater confidence. They face challenges ranging from chipa gnocchi prepared with a soufflé technique to reinventing the classic everyday meal in a test that determines who stays in the competition.

In the first Mystery Box challenge, the cooks find chicken heads and must figure out how to turn the ingredient into fine dining. The competition also leaves room for heartfelt memories, expressed through dishes that must be paired with wines.

MasterChef gets into the Portuguese spirit with a celebration. Split into teams, the professionals must serve 30 guests. The culinary journey continues through Italy, with colorful stuffed pasta dishes that could secure their place in the competition.
