France/Opening of registrations for the 2021 Foie Gras Challenge: “Foie gras is festive!”

Are you between 16 and 25 years old? 
Are you a student/apprentice cook in France?
Do you like cooking foie gras?

Try to win up to €2000 by participating in the Foie Gras Challenge!

This competition, organised each year by the CIFOG (Comité Interprofessionnel des Palmipèdes à Foie Gras), brings together young culinary talents around foie gras, confit or magret.

“Foie gras is festive”!

This year, the theme is based on the celebration: “Le Foie Gras est une fête!” (“Foie Gras is festive!”) and invites the candidates to put this tasty dish at the centre of the plate, as they would like to taste it when restaurants will reopen. Their recipe will have to sublimate foie gras, raw and/or semi-cooked, and convince the jury by its originality and subtle presentation.

Registration by 30 June

Candidates are invited to register before 30 June 2021 to the ADOCOM-RP agency (anais@adocom.fr). They must then submit a recipe by 20 September 2021. The six selected candidates will take part in the Foie Gras Challenge by presenting their dish to a jury in Paris.

Good luck!
