THE SIMPLE RECIPE IS THE BEST

I just represented the restaurant in a cooking competition. The competition was organized by the culinary school and most of the contestants were former students in the culinary school and now already chefs in their chosen fields. We were around 20 contestants and it was trimmed down to 10 for the finals.

We were required to submit our own recipe to the committee, the food that we were going to prepare and then the cooking started. Most of my rival chefs were preparing European dishes and they were using the European style of cooking. But Prefer the simple one but has a tested outcome. I have been cooking the recipe in my restaurant only and only for those special customers in my restaurant.

Were given around 30 minutes to cook the dish that we submitted. Most of my rival chefs were cooking dishes that require more than 30 minutes to cook and that was the problem for their selected dish. My dish was only 20 minutes to prepare and the result was an immediate impact to the tasting audience judges.

I bagged home the major prize for the competition and I was told that I have to come back next year to defend my crown. I just so happy to get the award. Cooking is really my passion and from cooking, I was able to get what I want and was also able to establish my own business out of the cooking skills that I acquired from the culinary school. The culinary school congratulated me for winning the award. I guess the culinary school really molded my skills in cooking to be the nest chef around the metro. For information, I cooked bacon delight in the cooking competition. This recipe, I already written in my own recipe book that will be soon in the stores by next year.
