A&S Competitions
• Competition One: Salt
Salt is the stuff of life, and every culture has required its use for not only for its culinary purposes, but also for medicinal, spiritual, and practical uses. This topic can include “salts” like natron, which had been used in Egyptian Mummification rituals. Salt has been so valuable that it has inspired common phrases, placenames, and has been used to describe entire peoples. What purposes, traditions, and stories can you share for this valuable commodity?
• Competition Two: Spices
In addition to being delicious, spices have been used in medicine, religious rituals, cosmetics, or perfume production for their purported health and spiritual benefits. In the culinary arts, a spice is any seed, fruit, root, bark, or other plant substance in a form primarily used for flavoring or coloring food. Spices are distinguished from herbs, which are the leaves, flowers, or stems of plants used for flavoring or as a garnish. Spices have always been seen as a luxury and an item of prestige that have inspired some of our longest held traditions. Perfect for a display or richly scented dish!
