We at The Chefs Arena are building Giant Culinary Democracy - For, Of and By the Young! This will comprise recipes that have been created and shared by the CADets in the age group of 12 -18 years from all over the world. These CADets will be contesting for their place in the Virtual Grand Finale of the ‘Cook a Dream - Local to Global Cooking Challenge'. The theme for the year 2020 is ‘The Millet Odyssey'. The CADets will be contributing recipes made with a variety of millets for any of these categories: Superb SaladsScrumptious SnacksMouthwatering Main CourseDelectable DessertsLively Local DelightsWith the challenge getting tougher as the CADets move ahead, they will be working with GI Tagged produce and addressing major nutritional deficiencies.But why millets?Through this challenge we are trying to revive the ancient grains like jowar, bajra, ragi, rajgira, buckwheat, sama etc. We are trying to make millets a part of the daily diet. This will be possible only if these humble grains are glorified and made palatable with innovative recipes. Millets are gluten free and have a high nutritive value; the reason why the food industry is looking up to millets as a healthy option to be included in breakfast mixes and cereals, cookies and biscuits, noodles, pasta, breads and baked products, flours, batters, frozen products, etc. All those who care for the planet will be happy to know that millet cultivation consumes much less water as compared to other staples. As we fuel aspirations, the CADets will embark on a journey into the culinary world by participating in a series of specially curated workshops on Knowledge, Skills and Attitude, as they move from one round of the challenge to another.Come participate in the Challenge. Cook and win great prizes!
