My family loves eating with rice. We feel like something is missing or the meal is incomplete without having rice with it. I guess it is part of our culture where rice is always a staple on the table during every meal. And you can do a lot of variations on how to cook or prepare dishes with rice. You can make a paella, a Spanish dish usually garnished with vegetables and meat or seafood, or garlic fried rice, which is usually served during breakfast, or even baked rice meals where you can cover the rice with a dish then baked it usually with cheese on top. Yummy!
Recently, we have stumbled at this particular website featuring cooking competition entitled the Great American Seafood Cook Off. Here 15 prestigious chef from all over US battled it out to be crowned as the King of American Seafood with seafood as their main ingredients of course. It also features the top 5 dishes that were created during the said cook off. Among the five of them, our favorite dish was the creation of Chef John Currence who was hailed from Mississippi. The dish name is Mississippi Redfish Courtboullion with Seafood Dirty Rice. One of obvious reasons for our choice is that rice is one of the ingredients for this menu. Another thing is the chef used a lot of ingredients specially fresh seafoods but only in small portions so that the the taste won't be overwhelming. And as I read through the article, I found out that this is also the winning dish of the event. I guess we have the same palate as the judges hehehe
I guess one of the reasons why that recipe won is because of it features Mississippi's very own Redfish. Since the chef also came from the same place, he brought a distinctive taste that can only be found locally. It's uniqueness became it's major advantage over the other opponents and it probably helped by leaving an impression to the judges. That is why one should try to utilize their own local products specifically on seafoods since it's easier to buy, always available and most importantly, you canbuy more for a cheaper price since you get it directly from the sources.
Also, right now you can visit the website at www.GreatAmericanSeafoodCookOff.com where you can also view the other dishes as well as their recipes. You can actually try out the dishes as the procedures are quite easy to follow. Just try to substitute some of the ingredients which may not be available in your area. You can even win a trip prize package to New Orleans. All you need to do is to participate in the voting contest currently being held in the website. So vote for your favorite dish now!
