The MasterChef Celebrity (Telefe) gala delivered one of the season's most intense moments. The main character was Claudio "Turco" Husaín, whose actions caused discomfort among the judges and his own teammates.
The night's challenge consisted of preparing a homemade pâté with red fruit compote, pickled onions, green salad, and olive oil and yogurt breadsticks. However, what was supposed to be a technical test ended up becoming a drama filled with jabs and reproaches.
Turco Husaín at the center of criticism
During the 60 minutes of cooking, Husaín gave false instructions about the recipe's quantities, something his teammates quickly noticed. "The competition starts today with Turco," Evangelina Anderson said, setting the tone for what was to come.
When presenting his dish, the former footballer surprised Damián Betular, who praised the result: "It's a caress to the palate." The chef highlighted that straining the pâté gave it a "glorious" touch.
The detail Turco didn't share that sparked controversy
The conflict erupted when Marixa Balli presented her dish. Betular pointed out that she hadn't strained it, a key step to improve the texture. At that moment, everything came to light: Turco hadn't shared that detail with anyone.
