i am HORRIBLY BLOGGED DOWN IN END-OF-SUMMER DOLDRUMS, and terrifiedly dreading the end of summer vacation and the start of freshman year. so, i am challenging a fellow blogger and cooking enthusiast, Stephanie Higgins, to a cooking contest. i've done several cooking contests before, but most of them have been with my cousin Hana. it's been pretty brilliant. the rules are as follows:
1. each contestant must create 5 dishes (appetizers, soup, salad, main dish, dessert) from scratch and present them to the judges.
2. points are awarded for plating (how the dish looks) taste, and creativity.
3. a secret ingredient will be decided upon by both chefs, and both will use the same secret ingredient.
4. judging will be carried out by a neutral party.
UNWRITTEN RULES:
5. using store-bought fresh pasta is unfair.
6. using more than 2 sticks of butter constitues cheating. same with excessive use of bacon. winning over judges by virtue of grease is no fair.
7. also prohibited is the use of wine to inebriate the judges before they taste the contestants' entries.
8. following recipes to the letter for everything is kinda frowned upon and may result in glaring.
here's hoping that Stephanie will accept my challenge, and the resulting competition will provide material for further blogging! signing off now.
(cheesy salute)
You suck. When I read the first two unwritten rules I thought they would all be directed at me.
ReplyDeleteThank got you put down the 'no getting the judges drunk' rule.... and that I never have enough time in that 90 minuets to make recipes from a cook book.
From the box pasta is not unfair unless you make it after the 90 minuets.
Duude. My friendlings here want another cooking contest... So I may just have to post my own stuffu about food.
A random tip: Add recipes and pictures!!
alright. with your declaration of suckage, i now feel i must exact revenge, o crazy cousin. REVENGE! YARRRR! WALK THE PLANK!!
