Masterchef Canada Season 3 Episode 10 Out of This World

In the tenth episode of the third season of Masterchef Canada, titled "Out of This World," the remaining home cooks are faced with challenges that take them above and beyond what they've previously experienced. The episode kicks off with the first test, where contestants must create a dish that represents their vision of life on another planet.

The judges, Michael Bonacini, Alvin Leung, and Claudio Aprile, are intrigued by the vast array of dishes presented, from light and airy creations to decadent, rich dishes. Some contestants take inspiration from their favorite science fiction literature and movies, while others draw from their own imaginations. This challenge proves to be especially difficult, with many contestants struggling to create a dish that meets the judges' expectations.

Next, the contestants must meet a very special guest, Commander Chris Hadfield. A former astronaut and commander of the International Space Station, Hadfield is the first Canadian to walk in space. He presents the cooks with their next challenge: preparing a dish suitable for astronauts on a deep space mission.

Contestants must create a dish that meets specific nutrition requirements, can withstand zero gravity, and is able to be eaten with a spoon. The cooks are given a limited selection of ingredients, upping the difficulty of the challenge. The contestants are allowed to taste Hadfield's own space cuisine and ask him questions before the challenge begins.

During the cook, some contestants struggle with the limitations of the ingredients and the unique requirements of astronaut food. However, others are able to create dishes that surprise and delight the judges. The tasting ends with a clear winner and a bottom group that must face elimination in the final challenge.

In the last challenge of the episode, the contestants must recreate a dish from one of Canada's top chefs, John Horne. The contestants must choose between two identical dishes, with one being created by Horne himself and the other made by fellow home cooks. This challenge pushes the contestants to bring their A game to the kitchen, with the pressure of recreating a culinary masterpiece.

The results are mixed, with some contestants successfully recreating the dish to the judges' satisfaction, while others fall short. The bottom two contestants are revealed in a nail-biting moment, and one home cook is ultimately sent home.

The episode ends with a teaser for the following week, promising even more excitement and challenges to come. Overall, "Out of This World" proved to be a memorable and unique episode of Masterchef Canada, pushing the contestants to new heights (literally!) and showcasing the creativity and ingenuity of Canada's top home cooks.
