The notorious balut is making a special appearance in “Junior MasterChef Pinoy Edition” this Sunday (Nov 27) as the kiddie cooks’ main ingredient in their Invention Test.

Check out how the skilled kids will add twist to the popular Filipino street food with their original and unique creations.

After tomorrow’s (Nov 26) elimination where one kiddie cook will bid goodbye to the culinary competition, the remaining eleven kids will be divided into two groups and clash in a “boxing match” to recreate a surf and turf dish, a main course that combines meat and seafood. The two competing teams will be mentored by guest chefs Carlo Miguel and Hasset Go, two of the youngest and most talented chefs in the country today.

Find out who among the Super 12 kiddie cooks will be the first to be eliminated in the search for the very first Pinoy Junior MasterChef.
