May 2024 · 3 minute read

After a week off, FOX aired a new episode of Season 12 of MasterChef on Wednesday, July 14, 2022.

All-Stars from past seasons are competing in the current season for a $250,000 cash prize and the MasterChef trophy.

Gordon Ramsay told the contestants in the most recent episode that they had to make a vegan dish. Even though Fred Chang, Shelly Flash, and Samantha Daily worked hard to make a dish, they were in the bottom three.

Samantha was the fourth finalist in Season 9. In the end, the judges decided to get rid of her. Fans are sad and disappointed that she was eliminated.

Samantha made “Stuffed Potato Cake with Mushroom Filling and Vegan Sour Cream” in Episode 7. Gordon said the dish was “so simple,” and Aaron Sanchez said it tasted like something from “the frozen section of the grocery store.”

Fans were sad when Samantha left Season 12 of MasterChef. Here are some of the things they said:

Samantha Daily’s first time on MasterChef was in Season 9, when she came in fourth. She was 20 years old at the time, making her the second-youngest contestant that season.

After being kicked off the show in Season 9, Samantha told a local newspaper about her experience. She said:

“I was so close to making it to the season finale that it was heartbreaking not to make it.”
According to her LinkedIn profile, Samantha went to the International Culinary Center to learn how to cook. There, she also learned how to bake. She has been a pastry cook for a long time and is now the Front of House Lead at Hot Off The Presses in the Des Moines Metropolitan Area.

When she first went on MasterChef, the woman, who is now 24 years old, was a senior at the University of Kentucky. She has kept in touch with Gordon Ramsay over the years to get advice.

In Season 12, out of a total of 40 alumni, she was chosen as one of the Top 20.
