Please join us in wishing a big congratulations to Executive Chef Brian Mizner of Hook & Ladder Manufacturing Co. for his creation, Roasted Crimson Pear & Smoked Bacon Risotto, winning the $2,000 grand prize!
During August, the Farm-to-Fork Restaurant Pear Recipe Contest resulted in some of the best pear recipes we’ve tasted, created by incredibly talented local chefs in the Sacramento region. From pear cocktails, to appetizers, entrees, and desserts, these farm-to-fork restaurants truly know how to make California-grown pears shine!
Thank you to all who participated, we couldn’t have asked for a better group of restaurants and chefs to work with in this Farm-to-Fork effort!
Keep an eye out for these recipes – we will be adding them to the recipe page of calpear.com in the near future!
