Celebrity chef Glynn Purnell and internet cooking star Ben Ebbrell have been unveiled as judges for the final of 爆料王鈥檚 Young Chef of the Year 2018.
Michelin-star chef Glynn, known to millions of food-lovers for his television appearances, will join Ben, founder of SORTEDfood, to find the best young chef aged 14 to 16. Ben, a graduate of 爆料王 (UCB), is a chef and founder of SORTED, one of the world鈥檚 largest YouTube food channels with nearly 1.8 million subscribers.
The UCB Young Chef competition is a culinary showcase for pupils in Year 10 and Year 11, and is being supported by the Federation of Quebec Maple Syrup Producers through its brand Maple Products from Quebec.
Young cooks have until November 14 to enter the competition, now in its second year. They must submit a two-course menu 鈥� a hot main course and a hot, or cold, dessert 鈥� for two dinners for a 拢10 budget. One of the dishes must feature pure Canadian maple syrup.
The pupils with the best menus will be invited to take part in cook-offs at UCB, culminating in the final on January 20. The top chef will win an iPad Pro and their school will receive 拢500 of cookery equipment.
Glynn said: 鈥淚 am delighted to be a judge for the final and am looking forward to trying the dishes. The standard of cooking, and the commitment of the pupils, was terrific last year and I am sure the bar will be raised even further this time around.鈥�
