The Taste Cooks!

Are you ready for some fast cooking action? Chefs will go head-to-head in a mystery ingredient cook-off!

Chefs will be given 3 mystery ingredients, a small pantry of basic cooking staples and 20 minutes to make their dish. 

Hosted by Rachel Belle, the host of Your Last Meal, a James Beard Award finalist for best podcast, host of the Emmy-nominated Cascade PBS TV show The Nosh with Rachel Belle and author of the cookbook Open Sesame.

Rachel will count down and emcee the cook-off, engaging chefs and the audience during this fast-paced and exciting event. Each chef will present their final entree to a judging panel selected from the audience, who, after tasting the dish, will determine the winner. 

All competitions will be done on a fully-equipped stage including pots, pans, stove top, blenders and other appliances. Chefs are welcome to bring their own knives and any specialty pans but no special ingredients.
