Not a Winner, But At Least Recognized…

So the winners of the Mushroom Soup competition were announced today.  My recipe for French Mushroom Soup with Roasted Garlic Croutons did win.  I won’t lie and say it didn’t matter, I was actually devastated.  I really think it is one of the best things I have ever made and it’s hard to know that your best isn’t always good enough.

I thought for sure that I would have at least made the Editor’s Pick which is like an Honorable Mention.  At first glance I didn’t see it there either.  I was now furious.  In my head I was thinking, “what does Food 52 want?”  I know my competition is stiff.  Most of the people submitting recipes are professional chefs…one of which was a contestant in Season 3 of The Next Food Network Star.  But, I thought even this dish could compete with the big guns…

Once I cooled my head, I looked once more at the Editor’s Pick list and lo and behold there was my dish and my name.  I glanced over it so fast the first time, that I missed it.

Click here to see my name…it’s under jonewman.

I feel much better about the whole thing right now.  At least I know that I am on their radar.

Maybe they will like my Fig Creme Brulee that I will submit for this weeks competition.  You never know…
