Parmigiano Reggiano Chef 2014 CrossCooKing Recipe Contest

Fire up the grill, grab your pasta pot, tie your apron on!  The Consorzio Parmigiano-Reggiano is sponsoring its second

international recipe challenge to discover how you like to use the "King of Cheese".

This year, Parmigiano Reggiano Chef 2014 is themed CrossCooKing, which is a 

celebration of the modern style of cooking that integrates ingredients and cooking 

methods from different culinary cultures to bring a new twist to traditional recipes. 

The goal of the recipe challenge is to highlight the versatility of Parmigiano 

Reggiano cheese by showing how it can be integrated into recipes from the 

culinary culture of cities, regions and countries around the world. 

Submit your recipe which reinterprets a typical dish from your own culinary 

culture using Parmigiano Reggiano – the Only Parmesan – to the CrossCooKing 

app. You will also be able to submit photos of your finished dish, a recipe 

description or history, and the country of inspiration for the recipe. 

A panel of chefs will judge and select 30 recipes from around the world to be 

published in the first Parmigiano Reggiano CrossCooKing recipe book. There will 

be a special surprise prize for the most interesting interpretation integrating the 

King of Cheese in a preparation from a different culinary culture. 

The contest will be on the Parmigiano Reggiano home page from now through July 18, 2014.
