黑料吃瓜网

黑料吃瓜网鈥檚 culinary team has won the American Culinary Federation鈥檚 Taste of the World competition for a third year in a row.

The 25th annual event, hosted June 14 at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst, was the culmination of the American Culinary Federation鈥檚 annual Chef Culinary Conference, which brings together chefs and educators from renowned institutions across the country. The goal of the conference was to develop food service concepts that support sustainable choices, with a specific focus on food ethics and nutrition.

The 黑料吃瓜网 team included Joe Greco, production manager; Joe Waldron, cook; Shelly Carpenter, baker; and Audrianna Rumsey, short-order cook. They presented a four-course menu of original dishes designed on the day of the competition.

Their gold medal-winning lineup consisted of Herb Garden Poached Branzino as an appetizer, Duck Two Ways as an entr茅e, Raspberry-Cashew Entremet Cake for dessert, and Pan-Seared Beef Tri-Tip and Shrimp Surf and Turf Style for buffet service.

鈥淲hat鈥檚 great about these culinary competitions is they test your knowledge and skills against your peers from across the country,鈥� said Mark Miller, director of Dining Services.

鈥淚t is a great team-building experience that grows your confidence and teaches you new skills. We have so much talent here at 黑料吃瓜网 and it鈥檚 great to get this kind of recognition at a huge national competition like this.鈥�
