The Next Top (Kosher) Chef
Within the cozy yet well-equipped walls of Brooklyn’s famous kosher culinary school, The Center for Kosher Culinary Arts (CKCA), a sizzling competition is in the works and may be destined to change culinary history. Similar to Top Chef, chefs from around Brooklyn will be put to the test in search of the next great kosher chef. Perhaps a visionary kosher chef will be born.
CKCA, on Coney Island Avenue, is currently the only kosher institution in America. Over the past two years it has enabled over 140 prospective chefs to complete their professional courses.
Attending CKCA is one of the only plausible ways for a non- Jewish chef to learn the art of kosher cuisine that will enable them to perform knowledgeably in a kosher restaurant.
Highly motivated, hard-working, amateur cooks who are committed to building a career in the kosher food industry are invited to enter the competiton. Applicants must be from the United States and must be 18 years of age or older.
They will undergo a scrupulous elimination process based on a personal written entry and a supplement video presentation. Ten semi-finalists will be chosen to advance to the next round. There will then be an interview process in which each applicant’s potential will be evaluated.
Ultimately, only three chefs will supersede their opponents and move on to the real competition that will be held at CKCA.
The competitors will all undergo not only culinary challenges but a written examination as well. The finalist who achieves the highest scores will become “The Next Great Kosher Chef.”
The judging panel will be comprised of several senior chef instructors. Chef Avram Wiseman, formerly the executive sous chef at the United Nations and chef instructor at the Art Institute of New York, will be appearing at the judging panel.
The winner of this challenge will be awarded a full scholarship to the Winter 2011 professional training program in culinary arts and the grandiose title of “The Next Great Kosher Chef.”
