Menu for Hope 6: Top Chef/Iron Chef

Top Chef/Iron Chef
Are you or someone you know addicted to Top Chef and Iron Chef America? If so, this prize package is just for you:

Season your way to good taste with Diamond Crystal® kosher, coarse and fine sea salt and put to use that iconic salt cellar you've seen Alton Brown using on Good Eats. Use a $25 CHEFS gift certificate to purchase anything else you might need, then cook like the chefs with signed copies of Michael Symon's Live to Cook and Top Chef: The Quickfire Cookbook (signed by chefs Jen Biesty, Jamie Lauren and Ryan Scott ). You'll also get a copy of Good Eats: The Early Years, Top Chef: The Cookbook and Top Chef Quickfire Challenge Game to keep you busy until next season.

WHY IS SALT SO IMPORTANT?
Perhaps you've noticed a lack of salt or too much salt is often a crucial element in the judging of chefs on Top Chef and Iron Chef America. Chefs like Alton Brown and Michael Symon know that to bring out the true flavor of food, you have to know how to use that simple, but key ingredient – salt. Endorsed by the American Culinary Federation, Diamond Crystal® kosher salt is a favorite of professional and home chefs alike. Its distinct pyramid- and multifaceted-shaped crystals allow for controlled seasoning, provide excellent skickability and give food a natural burst of flavor. Diamond Crystal® sea salt is an all-natural sea salt from the shores of the Pacific available in coarse and fine varieties.

To learn more about cooking with salt, visit Salt 101, an interactive experience where Alton Brown shares culinary wisdom and practical tips.
Note: Alton Brown uses his fingers to pinch the salt, not the spoon that comes with the salt server. You should do the same.
