Culinary arts students at Fife College have been given a masterclass on how to prepare the classic Italian dish risotto as part of preparations for a national competition.

The demonstration by Jason Morrison, managing director of Gallo UK, and chef Andrew Rogerson, from Essential Cuisine, was organised ahead of the Scottish heat of the Young Risotto Chef 2023..

The competition, which searches for young chefs with the ability to inject personality, passion and creativity into their own vibrant and exciting risotto dish, will be hosted at Fife College next January.

Ahead of the heat, students from several culinary arts courses at the college’s Kirkcaldy campus were given a presentation on the production of rice and the history of the Gallo brand.
