Head to Head Cook-Off: A School Fundraiser

[Yvonne]

For some time at my shows, I have been pushing the idea of a Cook-Off as a school fundraiser where maybe the Head Teacher could go up against the Deputy Head. Finally someone has taken me up on this for February. I am going to borrow some products from my director and get both "volunteers" to cook the same recipe, with the same products at the same time.

I thought I would sort of talk them through the products and the recipe as we go along - do you think this would work?

Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks

Yvonne

That sounds like a fun idea.

I would have them make something simple - like a Taco Ring. You could talk about all the products while they are doing the construction.

Are they going to be judged on how well it turns out??

Yes I thought I would get them to do one of the rings as that can be hilarious to watch if you haven't done it before.

I thought I would get the audience to judge the winner and offer a bottle of wine!

The Florentine Garden Ring is great also.

If you don't mind ice cream in the winter, what about the ice cream sandwich torte?

As I want both participants to do the same recipe at the same time, I need to think what tools are being used as I will need two of everything. Chopping board aren't a problem as they don't need to both have the same size, and I have two batter bowls, but I will have to borrow extra stuff.

What do you need for the Ice Cream Torte - I don't think I have come across that one?
