I am proud to say that I have recently placed in a
prestigious cooking competition.
My challenge was to satisfy 20 judges (19 members of the public who showed up to the event and 2 people who ate every single sandwich) in 45 minutes with a tasty grilled cheese sandwich consisting of 60 percent cheese and whatever else I could come up with.
I made a fresh mozzarella, hearts of palm and wood oven roasted tomato sandwich on homemade ciabatta, lubricated with a basil garlic butter.
I placed second in my category. I think I was up against 20 other sandwiches. Details on facebook and livejournal.
I anticipate an invitation to Top Chef any day now.
