MyGov in collaboration with the Institute of Hotel Management Catering & Nutrition, Pusa, New Delhi is organizing a Yuva Pratibha Culinary Talent Hunt 2023. The last date for submission of entries is June 30, 2023.
To reflect on India’s rich culinary heritage and understand the value and significance of what it can offer to the world in terms of taste, health, traditional knowledge, ingredients, and recipes, MyGov in collaboration with IHM, Pusa is organizing ‘YUVA PRATIBHA – Culinary Talent Hunt’.
With an aim to create awareness and increase the production and consumption of millet, the year 2023 has been declared by the United Nations as the ‘International Year of the Millets’, following a proposal by India, which wants to position itself as a global hub for millet.
Millets have been an integral part of our diet for centuries. In addition to a plethora of health benefits, millets are also good for the environment with low water & input requirements. Millets are an excellent source of dietary fiber, vitamins, and minerals, making them a healthy addition to any diet. With the increasing demand for healthy and sustainable food options, incorporating millets into culinary creations is a great way to promote their benefits and awareness.
To mark this occasion, they are organizing a cooking competition based on Millet under Yuva Pratibha. The objective of this competition is to promote the use of millet as a staple food with good taste and look beyond millet as being healthy and sustainable.
Culinary Talent Hunt is a great initiative for citizens across India to display their culinary talent and skills and gain national recognition. If you aspire to be New India’s emerging chef, then participate in the ‘YUVA Pratibha – Culinary Talent Hunt’ and show your culinary skills.
The purpose of this is to bring out the lost recipes and promote the culinary talents of young and aspiring chefs and home cooks. The fusion of millets in this competition provides a unique opportunity for participants to showcase their creativity and innovation in cooking with healthy and sustainable ingredients, promoting awareness about their versatility.
All entries must be submitted on the MyGov portal. Entries submitted through any other mode will not be considered for evaluation.
