McCain Tribute to Good Taste entry call

Creativity, originality and imagination are what's called for. Dishes need to be appealing to the taste buds with plenty of imagination mixed in. Impressive colour variations and a memorable taste explosion would also go far to impress the judges - along with freshness, nutrition and convenience.

If you think you have what it takes to walk away with the grand prize then enter now and stand the chance of becoming the next McCain Tribute to Good Taste Champion. Go no holds barred and unleash your creativity by creating a unique two course vegetarian meal for six people, incorporating a minimum of two McCain products per dish.

Entries close 15 February 2010.

The McCain Tribute to Good Taste competition will this year be held at Hostex Cape which is taking place at the Cape Town International Convention Centre from 8 to 10 March 2010. Four finalists will be flown to Cape Town to compete for the grand prize of R7 000 plus a floating trophy and guaranteed publicity.

Last years winner was Sibusiso Sydney Nyandeni (23) of Vosloorus, whose winning menu featured a starter of spiced butternut soup with basil and candied orange, and a main of crushed minted cumin peas with braised vegetable ravioli and truffled frothed mushroom veloute
