Che Spiotta is one of the final six contestants on season seven of "Masterchef Junior." 

"I got into cooking when I was really young, like three or four. Mainly because I'm gluten free. There's a lot of foods I couldn't eat," Che said.

The Boiceville native had his first audition for the show back in November 2017.

"And then we got called back and we went for more and more and more interviews and tryouts, until they finally said we were going out to L.A. to be in the show," Che said.

The whole season was filmed last year but only started airing in March. 

"I think I've just gotten a lot more experience being in the kitchen and being with that stress. It really changed the way I cook forever, it's made me such a better cook," Che said.

Che says one of the most challenging parts is presenting to the judges every week.

"You don't know what they're going to think and sometimes they keep a completely straight face. Then they talk and you find out, but those seconds are so scary because you don't know what to think," Che said.

The Spiotta family has viewing parties every week, with friends and family supporting their star chef.

"We have two televisions so we put the show on and there's like a kids room, and then there's where all the adults hang out, and as long as he's on the show we have the party the next Tuesday," said Elizabethanne Spiotta, Che's mom.

Win or lose, this chef says he'll always be in the kitchen.

"My future is definitely going to have something to do with food and I think it's given me such a kickstart into the culinary world to be on the show and to go this far — which is really awesome."

Che can not give away any spoilers just yet, but if you're interested in seeing if he makes it to the top four, you can tune in on Tuesday on Fox at 8 p.m.
