In the #WildAlaskaContest, Chef’s Roll has partnered with Trident Seafoods to provide 60 US-based chefs with samples of the the most abundant certified-sustainable wild fish in the world: Wild Alaska Pollock, and challenge them to create an innovative dish showcasing their favorite techniques and flavors. Wild Alaska Pollock is a cousin to cod with a similar flavor, texture and appearance. It has a lower carbon footprint than beef, chicken, pork and most other land based proteins and is naturally low in saturated fat and cholesterol. It is a natural source of Omega-3 Fatty acids and high in Vitamin B 12.
Anyone interested in competing is invited to register below. We are especially encouraging high-volume chefs to apply – but all registrants will be considered! A select number of chefs will be shipped product to use. When you’ve made your dish, you can submit it online via a private link. After this, judges will select a winner based on creativity, technique, and appeal.
Winners have been announced! See who won here.
