The ultimate prize is a three-year chef programme (QCTO accredited) worth R200,000, which includes a full chef uniform, ingredients and a chef's knife set. There are also six regional bursaries for a one-year programme worth R90,000 each.
For the chance to live their culinary dream, entrants must create a “red” dish (sweet or savoury) using any red ingredient, take a good, clear photo of the dish and upload it onto their Instagram page and use the hashtag #CapsicumTalent and tag @capsicumcooking. To qualify for this competition, contestants will also have to enter their details at www.capsicumcooking.com where all the rules and regulations can also be found. Closing date for entries is 30 June 2019.
Following the judging, finalists will be chosen to participate in a cook-off in July at the Capsicum campus closest to them, where they will have to prepare their dish using their own ingredients. Campuses are in Boksburg, Cape Town, Durban, Johannesburg, Pretoria and Port Elizabeth.
The winners chosen at each campus will compete in a national cook-off, using ingredients from a mystery basket, which will be held at Capsicum's Rosebank campus in Johannesburg on Saturday, 31 August.
