Introduction : Note by Note Cooking
Note by Note Cooking is the culinary technique using compounds, in order to build food.
The cook has to decide for the shapes, consistencies, tastes, odours, trigeminal sensations (pungencies, freshnesses…), temperatures, colours…
Of course, it deals with questions of nutrition, toxicity, and is part of the large « Note by Note Project » for sustainable development, important for feeding the humankind in 2050, when the population of the Earth will perhaps reach 10 billion people. This project is an important contribution to the fight agains spoilage, while sparing water, energy, foodstuffs, and taking care of the environment.
The goal of this 6th contest : crispiness, crackling
For this new contest, we invite the competitors (in three categories : chefs, students, amateurs) to create dishes with crispiness, crunchiness, crackling…
The proposed dishes will be appreciated according to their proximity to « pure note by note cooking ». Also the originality of the use of such compounds will be evaluated.
Each proposed dish will have to be :
1. described in a .doc file by a recipe (Roman 12) giving
1. the ingredients, including quantities
2. the process
2. shown by photographs.
The candidates will have to accept that their recipes and pictures can be used (with their name) by the organizers and the partners of the contest (see authorization of use in the bottom of this document).
Evaluation :
