Greetings lovely people of the world of Steemit!
Friday is here and as usual it's time for me to kick off another round of Steemit Iron Chef! Can you believe it...we are already midway through the first Act of the contest...time is really flying my friends!!!
Yes my dear foodies, I am here today to reveal the product that all the contestants of Steemit Iron Chef are eagerly waiting to discover for the 8th Round of Act 1!
But before that, let me thank everyone who entered in the 7th round which ended with 18 entries received, this is the number I last counted...If more entries come up before I complete my judging, for sure I will take them into consideration!
I've already started the judging process and the results should be out earlier this time - Stay tuned for that!
After the vegetable theme of the 7th round, this time our contestants will have a very famous fruit to work on...GRAPES!!!
I am so excited to discover how they will elevate this fruit in their dish!!!
GRAPES
Are our contestants going to make a dessert with them or surprise me with a starter or make an amazing main course with them!??? Hmmm let's wait and see!
Before anyone asks, let me clarify and confirm that you may use any varieties of grapes you wish to...Red, blue, white, rose, table grapes or wine ones, dried or fresh...the lists is soooo long...use any one you wish and which is available in your region! Hmmm surprise us and make either a starter, or a main course or a dessert based with grapes!
