Two months ago I was asked by my friend  Velia if I would like to enter the Risate e Risotti  cooking competition for food bloggers .  The idea of the competition was to create a dish using rice as the main ingredient and to send in a photo of your creation.

The event is sponsored by  Pila Vecia  Ferron , a rice company from Verona in northern Italy and the town of Orvieto ,  amongst others.…. and has been running for five years in Orvieto. Well, I thought, there’s no harm in giving it ago. After searching through my blog ,I found a little finger food I hadn’t made for a while. Squid ink risotto with gelatin parsley , topped with cod cooked in milk .

So , I sent in my idea with the photo of course and waited. Time passed by and nothing happened . After a while I completely forgot about the event , until last Thursday when I got an e-mail telling me I had made it through to the finals.

I couldn’t believe it . My first cooking competition and I was a finalist ! I was so pleased. Anyway, the results were announced on Sunday and much to my delight I came second. The winner was Lorella Fabris a very good food blogger from Venice , who I had the pleasure to meet yesterday.

It just goes to show, as my father always says ,”nothing ventured ,nothing gained “.

Ciao
