The Food Network is looking for home cooks for a new competition show.
“If you are a Food Network fanatic and a truly skilled home cook who prepares elevated dishes completely from scratch, this is your chance! Maybe you abandoned your dreams of culinary school to take care of your family. Maybe you have racked up a collection of state fair blue ribbons, taken home the trophy at a cooking competition or earned local celebrity for your food. Whatever your story, we’d love to hear it!”
The show is for amateur cooks only.
