MasterChef revisits an old classic in tonight’s episode, as the semi-finalists are tasked with perfecting their biscuit bases – a decade after the release of the Top 40 Hit, Buttery Biscuit Bass.
In a brand new clip, Greg Wallace references the mash-up track by Swede Mason, hoping to inspire the six semi-finalists.
“We love the base base biscuit base, we love the buttery biscuit base,” he jokes, before adding: “Off you go.”
Clips from the song are then interwoven with footage of the semi-finalists apparently attempting to mix their own buttery biscuit bases.
“We’re not just looking for a buttery biscuit base, they can go in any direction they like,” Wallace tells the camera.
“Their culinary imagination can go wild,” his co-host John Torode adds.
“It can be buttery, toasty, nutty, crunchy,” Wallace continues.
However, it’s not all fun and games in the kitchen. “There’s a lot riding on this – a place in finals week,” Torode concludes.

The remaining contestants have been whittled down from the original MasterChef 2022 line-up, which consisted of 45 amateur cooks who had been split into five groups of nine hopefuls.
The show’s semi-finals will conclude tonight at 8pm before the final week of episodes begins.
MasterChef continues this week on BBC One and will be available to watch on BBC iPlayer.
