MasterChef Junior: When Jordi Cruz gets pissed off, he gets pissed off rightly

They say that the lion is not as fierce as they paint it, but with Jordi Cruz this saying is not valid. He is undoubtedly the toughest judge of all and does not pass even half. While his teammates, Samanta Vallejo Nájera and Pepe Rodríguez always show the most friendly face of the jury, Jordi Cruz is the one who plays the role of bad cop. Less in MasterChef Junior 7 .

Although only two programs of this new edition have been broadcast, the image that Jordi Cruz is showing is far from the one he usually shows . Affectionate, fun, friendly, playful, cuddly ... Nothing to do with that deadly and demanding Jordi Cruz that does not happen even half in the anonymous MasterChef editions and in MasterChef Celebrities .

But beware. Jordi Cruz is in sweet mode until the party is bitter , and last night Aitana made her bitter and returned the scene to Jordi Cruz that we all know. The difference is that this time you can not put a single but the Michelin five-star chef. Last night, Jordi Cruz got pissed off and pissed off with all the reason in the world.

That it is the children's edition and the culinary talent aspirants are children does not mean that you have to consent to everything or allow them everything. It seems fantastic to me, and so I think it should be, that the judges are not only there to help them out in the kitchen or to value their work, the judges are also there to teach them what to do and what not to do. And just like my dearest Albert last night they gave a talk in conditions about the importance of playing sports, I think it is just as wonderful that when any of the children crosses a red line they are also told and they are aware of the awareness that at that time It seems they lacked.

And that is what happened with Aitana. The 10-year-old girl took more than one lesson last night that I'm sure she won't forget anymore. It is not the same thing that your mother or your father gives you a rapapolvo, that you give it a five Michelin stars, in one of the programs of greater audience of the television and in front of all your companions. When things are done wrong, they are done badly and it doesn't matter if you are a child, an adult or an elder. There is always time to rectify. And it doesn't matter if you cry, and it doesn't matter if you apologize and it doesn't matter if you look the other way. If you do it wrong, you do it wrong, and it is best to catch it in time and rectify it, let it pass and make the ball bigger.

If something has been proposed this edition of MasterChef Celebrity is, first, that children enjoy, and, second, that none of the children who participate are separated or displaced by their peers. It has been proposed so much since the program that some errors have been corrected that in previous editions left quite embarrassing moments.

For example, it is now ejected based on the points you have added during the program. The one with the least points (rather, the ones with the least points because they fall three by three) will be the one who ends up being ejected. For example, in outdoor tests the choice of equipment is made by lot, so that no child will feel displaced. And, for example, those screams and tone outings that were heard in other editions, are not even aware.

In the first test of the program last night, Jordi Cruz, Pepe Rodríguez and Samanta Vallejo Nájera turned the MasterChef Junior kitchens into a fair with clowns, forzudos, acrobats and ... Mario Vaquerizo. The children had to prepare an ice cream or a sorbet, depending on the duck they caught in the piece, and they had to accompany it with a crepe filled with what they preferred. You can make a child happier! Fair, clowns, forzudos, duck fishing, crepes and ice cream ... I also want to participate in MasterChef Junior.

Each child would fish for a duck and under it would be the ingredient with which they would have to prepare either a sorbet if it was not an ingredient that had a greasy content, or an ice cream if the ingredient did carry it. For example, whoever touched a fruit would prepare a sorbet, while whoever touched chocolate or vanilla would prepare an ice cream. And there they got to work.

I love it when the judges explain how to make an ice cream and say so hot dogs "anyone can do it at home". I am going to tell you one thing, don't say that, that my little offspring listen to it and believe that our kitchen can become an ice cream shop with little effort. No, it is not easy to make an ice cream at home, at least an ice cream like the ones that MasterChef Junior aspirants had to do last night. A sorbet, yes, but an ice cream ... Please, a little mercy for parents that we have to face after the culinary magic of MasterChef Junior. Doesn't it happen to you that if you see MasterChef Junior with a child, the child becomes a super chef and it is believed that you can be his prick? Two programs have been aired and my daughter dreams of having her own jacket and turning the kitchen into ABAC itself.

- "Mom, how about dinner?"

- "Well, a French omelette."

-A French omelette? "

- "Yes. What else do you want?"

- "I want a French omelette with cream cheese and seaweed tile spherifications".

So are the conversations of children who see MasterChef Junior. True. Little word of the Infant Jesus.

The fact is that I hallucinate pickles with some of the aspirants of this edition. There are the cracks and then, the rest. You just have to see the elaborate and worked dishes of Lu, María or Leo. No wonder Lu has two consecutive captains for being the best in the first tests. Last night it was not only that he made a pear sorbet that left Samanta licking up to the chin, it is that individual crepes were curved where each one carried his special touch and that he presented in different colors leaving the ojiplática judges. The difference with the rest is abysmal.

While the others saved ice cream and sorbets as they could, Lu was tens of meters ahead. And that Bosco's vanilla ice cream or Lucas's chocolate ice cream, with the invaluable and won help of Jordi Cruz, were not far behind. However, the crepes was a separate chapter. The one that didn't look like an industrial-sized pancake was a hodgepodge of toppings that had nowhere to catch them. If the applicants of this edition are demonstrating something, they have a crazy desire to work. Well, all, all ... no.

The ice cream test was the first encounter between Jordi Cruz and Aitana. I promise that when I saw Jordi Cruz's face while Aitana justified her cooking and defended her work with a "well, it seems to me that it is fine", my shivers shook. He already said that he was restraining himself, but the wind cannot be stopped. The chef was very controlled, because he becomes an adult who answers as Aitana replied and the one who rides Jordi is morrocotuda.

But he was restrained because Aitana is only 10 years old and because in the end she is a girl and cannot and should not be crushed. However, it is true that Aitana's attitude while listening to the jury's assessment in which she was recriminated by the little work and effort her plate had, was a little left over. "I am measuring my words Aitana because I am starting to get mad at you, and I am not telling you as a joke. When you do not put effort, you know it and I do not want you to lose this opportunity because of lack of effort is to be here with us. And when you I say things you don't like, you say 'well, I do' ... There is very little work on this plate and you know it. And it breaks my heart to see you cry, but I want to avoid it. "

First touch of Jordi Cruz's attention. It would not be the last of the night. The second program was not an easy program for Aitana, but it was not easy because she did not want to make it easy. During the first test, his attitude was effectively the attitude of those who believe they are far above and the right and necessary effort was made. It is not only that he presented a dish in which the little work was seen, it is that just as he answered how he answered the judges, he also behaved like this with his companions during cooking.

Juan asked him for help and she not only told him incorrectly what he was asking but also when Juan asked for explanations, she quickly ventilated him with a "is that I am not to be aware of yours." It is that when it was the last minute of cooking he pushed Albert from the sink to put on her without even thinking if it was the right thing to behave like this. No wonder, therefore, that when he had to present the dish and the judges did not value it well, Aitana reacted as he reacted. And I am not surprised that Jordi Cruz, who having seen his attitude during the test and his way of answering, thought that the best thing he could do for her is to lower her feet to the ground again.

But then came the outdoor test. The MasterChef Junior team moved to the Rafa Nadal school in Manacor to make history: serving rations for the largest number of diners in the history of MasterChef Junior, and we are already going for the 7. 110 diners among school students, teachers , relatives of Nadal and friends. A challenge, which was not going to be easy for applicants. In fact, both Jordi Cruz and Pepe Rodríguez ended up putting on their jackets and getting into kitchens because if they don't get to do what they are invited, they stay with two candles.

The captaincy was divided between Lu and Lucas. Lu was the captain of the blue team formed by Aitana, Candela, María, Lucía and Bosco, while Lucas was the captain of the red team, formed by Albert, who returned to make his own, (I have no hands to applaud him), Vega , Leo, Dani and Daniela. The two teams would prepare two dishes each, all of them typical Mallorcan. Lu's team was in charge of cooking a red shrimp tartare with fried potatoes and seaweed tile, and a second, burballes with rabbit. Meanwhile, Lucas's team would have to prepare roasted stripe with Mallorcan tumbet and for dessert, in homage to the tennis player, tennis ball with biscuit ground and passion soup.

If Lu comes to know that the burballes with rabbit would cause Jordi Cruz to take one of the most monumental pisses that are remembered in the history of MasterChef Junior, I am convinced that he would not have let Lucas choose the dishes to cook. It is true that Lucas's menu was much more complicated than that of the blue team, but the thing about chopping rabbits was a disadvantage that lastrated Lu's team and, above all, lastrated Aitana, who was already marked by the previous test.

The Barcelona was responsible for cutting the rabbit and made a real kill. The little girl could not find a way to chop it well and was beating the knife like a headless chicken. While Albert took Bosco out of his boxes by stealing the occasional ingredient of the blue team, and Lu tried to calm the spirits, Aitana desperate with the rabbits took one of them and as the one who throws a clínex to the bin took a rabbit and threw it to the trash with "namaste" as parting.

At a bad moment, Jordi arrived to review the work of the blue team. The whole rabbit looked perfectly in the garbage can and Jordi Cruz was not going to let it pass. The chef approached Aitana and without telling him anything about the rabbit in the trash he tried to explain the importance of treating the product well. Jordi Cruz did not say a word higher than the other, he did not scold it, it did not last, but Aitana, who knew perfectly well that throwing an entire rabbit was not well, immediately began to cry. It is true that he tries to contain the tears, but Aitana's tactic is that of 'I do it and then I cry'.

Jordi Cruz took the rabbit from the garbage and while Aitana tried to excuse herself by saying that she was wrong to cut it, Jordi Cruz was very clear: "There is no excuse for this. This is throwing food. You know that MasterChef wastes waste on us He likes absolutely nothing and has consequences, out of respect for the little animal, out of respect that the world is not overrun with food and for many things, what you have done cannot be done, why do you know the only thing I can do now? "And Jordi Cruz threw the rabbit back in the trash while Aitana nodded and endured the crying. "For me, what you have done is a drama. Come and work."

There was not another word, not even when the judges had to value the work of the teams, but it is true that Aitana practically disappeared from the outdoor test. It was seen on some level than another of the test, but most of the time it was probably not in kitchens because it could not withstand the pressure of Jordi Cruz's anger, but especially because he knew he had done it wrong. They are children and they can be wrong, of course, but more than the fact of throwing away the food that is explained and surely they will not do it again, it was how they did it, as if it did not matter, as if it were a joke, as if it were a joke. game. I applaud even the ears of the rapa dust that Jordi Cruz gave him, because it is a lesson that not only Aitana has to learn but we have to learn all.

Lu, María and Lucas got rid of cooking in the last challenge as they were the three candidates with the most points, while the rest would have to face a relay test in pairs, after which Bosco, Candela and Lucía ended up being expelled. . What a rain we all took. The expelled ones, the companions and, yes, I am not ashamed to say it, I at home. Oh my Bosco! The youngest of all applicants said that he "loved" being in MasterChef Junior, because I loved that he was.

I feel so sorry when those dislikes are carried away. "The best have been friends," Candela said, and that's what you have to stay with. No, with whether you are the best or the one with the most points or the one who is the meat of reaching the final, but with what you really will have are friends and lessons well given and well learned. That Jordi as cool deserves a wave! UEEEEEE, another wave, UEEEEEEEE, and a tsunami ...
