Cono Sur Signs Up Top Chefs For Sustainable Cooking Competition

by Andrew on November 9, 2010 in On The Web with No comments

Cono Sur is highlighting its status as one of the world’s most sustainable wineries this autumn with the launch of the Cono Sur Green Cooks Search, an online competition to find the UK’s most environmentally-friendly home cook.

The competition aims to highlight the affinity between Cono Sur and sustainable cooking by rewarding “green cooks”, a term coined by Cono Sur to describe those who produce food that not only matches Cono Sur wines in terms of taste, but also its sustainability ethos, by using home-grown, organic or ethically sourced ingredients.

The Chilean company has signed up top chefs known for their eco-cooking credentials to be on the Green Cooks Search judging panel, including Michelin-starred chef Paul Merrett of The Victoria in West London, Jamie Grainger-Smith, co-founder of London’s first eco-restaurant Acorn House and current director of restaurant consultancy Think, Eat, Drink, and the Soil Association’s Organic Food Awards chairman Barny Houghton, who is also an award-winning chef and founder of the Bordeaux Quay restaurant and cookery school in Bristol.

The competition, which should go live today at www.conosurgreencooks.com, will run for six weeks, with entrants invited to upload recipes, photos and videos of their green cooking exploits. Each of the chef partners will be providing their own sustainable recipes, which will be posted on the website from 8th November, with a step-by-step photo guide for those wanting to try out the chefs’ exclusive recipes at home. The recipes will be matched to wines from the Carbon Neutral® Cono Sur range.

A case of Cono Sur wine and a grow-your-own vegetables kit from the Seed Pantry will be given to the best entry of the week and at the end of the competition, an overall winner will be chosen by the judging panel, winning a weekend break for two at The Victoria, including a delicious, seasonal meal cooked by Paul Merrett and paired with Cono Sur wines. The grand prize winner will be announced on the website on 22nd December 2010.

Hell’s Kitchen meets Ready Steady Cook this Autumn

by Andrew on September 20, 2010 in Tasting Events/Shows with No comments

To celebrate 10 years in business and raise money for Trinity Hospice, Twelve Restaurant & Lounge Bar near Blackpool, Lancs, is searching for its very own amateur chefs to go head-to-head in a professional environment.

They are looking for two chefs to compete against one another and serve more than 70 diners with a live video kitchen link-up and a judging panel of local experts.

To compete, candidates must submit two dishes – a starter and a main course - and the best entries will be chosen based on the composition of the dishes, seasonality, style and use of local produce.
Twelve have joined up with BBC Radio Lancashire to supply each candidate’s Commis Chefs – presenter Sally Naden, and the producer of the Ted Robbins Show, Alison Brown; in addition each candidate will also be assigned two chefs from Twelve.

The candidates will compete under the banners of Twelve’s signature dessert dishes – the Tangerine Dream Vs the Banana Butty.

Diners will have their say on who is the best team with a ‘Ready Steady Cook!’ style of voting – orange tangerines or yellow bananas!

Husband and wife team Caroline Upton and Paul Moss who own Twelve Restaurant & Lounge Bar and Twelve Event Management said the competition was a great opportunity for anyone with a real passion for food and cooking.

“We all watch the television shows where individuals compete in a professional kitchen to the high standards of a renowned restaurant with famous and talented chefs – but what is it actually like?
”We are offering two brave candidates the chance to put their talents to the test and see if they have what it takes to compete in a professional environment.
“But first, we want people to send us their submissions. The dishes can be any style of cooking, whether vegetarian or meat, inspired by home-cooking or food from around the world. Above all, they must be creative and stylish using seasonal and local ingredients! “explained Caroline.

The deadline for submissions (starter and main course) is October 1st 2010, and candidates must be available for the event which will be held on Wednesday 27th October. Entries can be submitted by post to Twelve Restaurant & Lounge Bar or by email [email protected]. For more information call 01253 821212.

by Andrew on July 20, 2010 in On The Web, Online Retailers with 1 Comment

The lucky winner and a friend will be flown to Dublin and put up at a luxurious hotel for two nights. They will be wined and dined each night and treated to an exclusive private tour of the legendary Cooley distillery. At the end of the tour they will even receive a personalised bottle of Tyrconnell malt whiskey as well as a bottle of the newly released Kilbeggan Distillery Reserve to take home.

There is no limit to the number of entries per person, with one free entry being given out with every single full-sized (70cl) bottle of Cooley Whiskey bought from www.masterofmalt.com. Don’t hang around though, because there are only 250 chances to enter.

The limited number of entries (just 250) means that anyone who enters will have an unusually high chance of winning and, unlike most competitions, even if more people enter, that chance doesn’t reduce. Because of this, the draw is likely to be fully subscribed long before the closing date.

Master of Malt are an award-winning Online Retailer and Independent Bottler of Whisky and other fine spirits. The Cooley whiskey competition forms part of Master of Malt’s 25th birthday celebrations and it will feature an exclusive private tour of Ireland’s only independent, Irish-owned whiskey distillery. The tour will culminate in a whiskey tasting and the winner will even receive a very special personalised bottle of Tyrconnell whiskey and a bottle of the newly released Kilbeggan whiskey – two malts which are held in high esteem amongst Irish whiskey connoisseurs.

The Cooley whiskey distillery has become well-known for its production of a number of Ireland’s most critically-acclaimed whiskeys; malts from the Tyrconnell range regularly score upwards of 94 points in the Jim Murray Whisky Bible (Jim describes whiskeys in this bracket as being “Superstar whiskies that give us all reason to live”!) In 2010, the Cooley distillery was even declared “Distillery of the Year” by Malt Advocate’s John Hansell who commented on the quality and variety of whiskeys made at the distillery, “In an era where hundreds of small distilleries are starting up across the globe, Cooley can be an inspiration to them all”.

To enter the Cooley competition, all participants must do is buy any full-sized (70cl) bottle of Cooley whiskey from Master of Malt before 6pm the 1st of August 2010 arrives or the 250 chances to win run out. The lucky winner will be named on of before the 7th August 2010.
