• Masterchef Arnau, the MasterChef 9 winner who fooled everyone

  • Television The expulsion of Ofelia leaves Jordi Cruz disarmed

Nothing tastes better than victory. Especially at Masterchef, where the best dishes make the winner the chef of the year.

Arnau Paris did not appear as the winning horse, he was even close to the finish line

; however, he broke records and took the jacket first thing in the evening. "I like to go against the established," explains the winner of the ninth edition of the culinary program broadcast by TVE. A competition that cost him his ponytail and has led him to say goodbye to the taps; but in which he ended up fond of Ophelia's intensity.

It seems that in the end the

blacklist

worked.

It is a set of things, but it is certainly part of the victory. Nobody expected him to be proclaimed the winner, however he has broken records. How did you feel? Very good. I like that of not appearing in the pools and being the trigger. I like to go against the norm. He has been a fairly tight contestant, it seems that he has been met at the end. Was it difficult for you to open up or was it part of the character? It is part of me. And in the end I open up to people I trust and appreciate. Arnau is Arnau with his, and they have become mine as I have gained confidence. Was there a strategy part or is it pure spontaneity? I'm very spontaneous, despite the

blacklist

and there is no strategy to reach the final and win. I try to be natural and that becomes my strategy, it is the way things work when I am myself. For example, the dedication to my parents on the subject of cancer is something that I did not do until I felt it was time. I could have said it in the third program, but until I have believed that the dish was up to the task or the situation deserved it, I have not wanted to name it. Was victory expected or was it also a surprise for you? It was a surprise, I thought I was going to leave in each elimination test. What's more, at the beginning of the program, I would talk to my family and tell them not to send me a lot of clothes, because I thought it would not last long. And look at the end ... Until the last moment, I was not aware of it.Didn't he consider himself with enough potential? The truth is that no, I went game by game, pit by pit. When you get older and more dishes come out, you look good, but there are 16 other people who go up at the same rate. You do not have to be an excess and believe that you can with everyone, there are very good people and you have to be minute by minute. With which partner would you have liked to play the final? First with Toni, who is a rival and a friend, a guy with a passion for cooking. Later with María Tomelloso, she is also a friend and I would have loved that Castilla la Mancha-Catalonia battle. It would have been nice, but with Meri it was a great duel. He was very inspired by his land in the last menu, what does Catalonia mean for you? More than in Catalonia, I focused on my gastronomic memory. They are dishes that I have eaten at home all my life and I love being able to put them together.I thought of that kitchen that I grew up with, that of the town and the grandmothers, to give it my modern touch.

What does Masterchef9 mean to you? For me it is a real life change. The trigger for what I've always wanted to do, but never found a reason. I always thought about changing my life: dedicating myself to gastronomy, to the farmhouse project. But it was something he put off for various reasons, there were always reasons not to. Masterchef has put the moment and the reason on the table. Are you going to abandon the taps? The taps are permanently parked. The sale freaks me out, I believe that all life is sale and we dedicate ourselves to it at all hours; but I'm going to focus on gastronomy. I'm going to do what I'm passionate about a job. What are the plans for the future? At present, I am already full. I do gastronomic days in the farmhouse, we are producers of oil and wine, I love to bring people.I am making tasting menus where I intend to convey that love for the product. It has been working since June and we are doing very well. Has there been a moment of the contest that has been too uphill for you? In the fifth program, when I almost went home and at the end Maria left. For me it was a turning point, I was sunk, the psychological and physical burden of the program had taken its toll on me. At that moment I felt without courage but I decided to lift it with claws and push. In the end it helped me to be the winner of this ninth edition. And the best moment, besides the victory? The cake tasting, because I discovered a passion. If I like cooking, I have found that baking even more. What do you intend to do with the prize money? First of all, a celebration with my people, because I am who I am thanks to them.Then I would like to carry out projects of connection with nature. Trying to return to the origin of things, to the animal essence of connecting with everything that surrounds us. I feel like we live very disconnected. Was it a drama to cut your ponytail? It cost me but I wanted to. At the moment of cutting it, after two years letting it grow, I was aware that I did not need any amulet, I had already woken up. I felt that my attitude, my inner struggle and my warrior was enough. In the end, did you become fond of Ofelia? Yes (emphatically). I always say it, she is a very intense girl but she takes a lot of affection. We had our pluses and minuses, but in the end one has to know and understand others. In the end, speaking with knowledge, maturity and good words, we all understand each other.Trying to return to the origin of things, to the animal essence of connecting with everything that surrounds us.
