To enter the competition, contestants must create a dish — sweet or savoury — using a red capsicum pepper or any other red ingredient; take a good, clear photo of the finished dish and upload it onto their Instagram page, tagging @Capsicumcooking and using the hashtag #CapsicumTalent.
Entrants must be 17 years of age or older. The competition closes at midnight on Monday, November 30. The names of the 10 finalists from each region will be announced on December 9. Those finalists will then be invited to participate in a cook-off on January 20, 2021, at the Capsicum campus closest to them, where they will have to prepare the dish they entered, using their own ingredients.
The winner from each campus will then compete in a cook-off to be held at Capsicum's Rosebank campus for the final cook-off on Saturday, February 6, 2021, where they will have to create the ultimate dish using ingredients from a mystery basket. Travel to Gauteng will be sponsored for those living outside the province.
Capsicum Culinary Studio's academic head Candice Adams said: “This is an amazing opportunity for six individuals who are passionate about cooking and want to study further to realise their dreams of a career in the hospitality industry at one of South Africa's best culinary schools.”
