The 'Cook & Chef Talent Awards' returns once again this year to the kitchens of Aula Culinaria
The Cook & Chef Institute Foundation promotes the talent of future chefs and, this time, has organised awards to motivate the students of Aula Culinaria del Vallés, one of the Foundation's ambassador schools. Through the competition, the students experiment with different dynamics to those they encounter in their day-to-day lives, thus contributing to their training. The event coincided with the end of the culinary school's academic year, making it a fun farewell for the students. The school's kitchens, equipped with Bergner kitchenware, were the chosen venue for the event.
Aula Culinaria del Vallés is a centre directed by Lola G. Oliver. This centre has grown and established itself to become a reference school for experienced chefs and cooking enthusiasts who are looking to enter the culinary world in a more professional way. To this end, Aula Culinaria bases its training on a methodology of theoretical and practical sessions, in which the aim is for students to enjoy themselves and obtain the necessary knowledge to prepare anything from a simple dish to the execution of recipes with more technical cooking or pastry preparations.

In this third edition of the competition we were able to enjoy magnificent dishes prepared by students with, of course, a great future in the culinary world. With the entire kitchen equipped with Bergner kitchenware and with the participation of four prestigious jurors (Jordi Luque, Oswaldo Brito Guzmán, Toni Sánchez Castillo and Pau Gener Barbany) the talent of the students did not take long to appear.
The winning dish was a marinated mackerel coca by Judit Serrano. A dish that really surprised the judges with its stupendous combination of flavours and the perfect preparation of the coca.
Judit, on winning, as well as being awarded the Cook & Chef Talent Award trophy, was presented with an extensive collection of Bergner kitchenware so that she can continue to create, enjoy cooking and surprise with her dishes.
In short, the Cook & Chef Institute supports culinary education by fostering connections between students and linking them even more to the world of gastronomy. The competition, held in a relaxed atmosphere, is also a reward for the work done during the course, another excuse to show off the knowledge they have acquired during the year.
