Overview


Welcome to Ferrous Chef: Instructables! Featured ingredient: Watermelon. Challenge ingredient: Chervil.
Share any recipe that makes use of watermelon to compete. Your dish may be a salad, main course, or dessert. Watermelon must be the star of the show, not a garnish or an afterthought. The grand prize is a Vitamix 1300 TurboBlend 4500. The challenge ingredient is chervil. It’s a delicate flavor we won’t get to taste, so you’ll need to describe how it impacts the taste of your dish to get full credit for its incorporation.
We’ll be weighting presentation heavily, but the most important element is the featured ingredient and the challenge ingredient.
Let the battle begin!
