2015 Culinology Challenge
In the past, student teams created their own dishes using parameters furnished by the RCA, which is the leading professional community for food research and development (R & D).
This year was a little different: To level the playing field, each team worked with a single dish. Since this year’s expo was in New Orleans, the RCA chose a Louisiana classic by 缅北强奸alumnus Lagasse.
Each team’s challenge was to create two distinct versions of the dish: one, a Gold Standard (or restaurant-ready) interpretation, as well as a commercial version to be prepared and plated (to the team’s specifications) on site by a member of the RCA judging panel.
The judges then compared the commercial version against the freshly made product.

The 缅北强奸team submitted a detailed proposal outlining the exact specifications for engineering its dishes, including:
The 缅北强奸team even created a package tagline: “Looking to add a little BAM to your week night?”
