The winners and laureates of the "Master of Russian Regional Cuisine" contest were named at the RUSSIA EXPO
The first-ever awarding ceremony of the "Master of Russian Regional Cuisine" contest was held at the RUSSIA EXPO. The names of 5 winners and 3 laureates from 7 regions of our country were announced in the lecture hall of the Russian Society "Knowledge" in Pavilion No. 34 "Cosmonautics and Aviation".
The project "Master of Regional Cuisine" was invented and realized by chef Vladimir Oleynikov with the support of Rosmolodezh.Grants. The competition was attended by students of food industry colleges aged 16-18 years old. Its main idea is to improve the professional skills of young specialists and attract their attention to the subtleties of different national dishes of Russia.
"In my opinion, the competition has two very important tasks that help young and novice chefs. Firstly, it is important that it is dedicated to the national cuisine - this builds up the interest in our traditions among the young people that is needed today. Secondly, any such event, in addition to teaching them how to behave in a competitive environment, introduces them to the professional community and gives them an opportunity to feel a part of it," said project manager Vladimir Oleynikov.
Within the framework of the "Master of Regional Cuisine" project, students made movies about a national dish, the recipe of which they want to revive. The works were evaluated by an expert commission, which included 12 professionals: chefs and other representatives of the sphere. The award ceremony was attended by chef, TV presenter and blogger Vasily Yemelianenko, chief of Vasilchuki Restaurant Group holding Alexander Volkov-Medvedev and others.
