The Top 17 remaining home cooks compete in a high-pressure mystery box challenge, inspired by special guest Alessandra Ambrosio, for a shot at immunity. One contestant will be eliminated. Then, they face another elimination challenge in which they must replicate the dish du jour in just sixty minutes or they will risk being sent packing. Gordon demonstrates how to prepare the dish du jour - tarte tartin - a perfect French dessert accompanied with a silky cr�me anglaise sauce. One contestant's journey will come to an end and the rest will remain in the running to become the next MASTERCHEF in the "Hot & Spicy / Gordon Takes on a Tarte" two-hour episode of MASTERCHEF airing Wednesday, July 1 (8:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX.
