It was semifinal night on MasterChef: Dynamic Duos as the Top 4 faced another iconic challenge but one that if they mastered would take them to the finale: \u201cKeeping Up With Gordon.\u201d<\/p>\n
But this season\u2019s \u201cKeeping Up With Gordon\u201d challenge had an added twist: It was also a Tag Team challenge, which made it more difficult as not only did each Duo attempt to make one of Gordon\u2019s Michelin star dishes at the same speed as he made it, but they also had to do it while taking turns cooking.<\/p>\n
On the menu was Gordon\u2019s Buckwheat Crusted Duck Breast with parsnip pur\u00e9e, sweet & sour endive, pickled daikon & cherries and port white sauce. One duo was eliminated and turned in its white aprons while the other three made it into the finale in the all-new “Keeping Up With Gordon – Tag Team Style!” episode. Check out our spoiler-free recap of everything that happened on MasterChef: Dynamic Duos tonight.<\/p>\n
