Father's Day Recipes:
ACF Culinary National Team USA boasts three certified master chefs (CMC), of which there are only 61 in the country, and has already become a top contender on the world culinary stage. The team placed fifth overall and won two gold medals at the EXPOGAST 2006 Culinary World Cup international culinary competition in Luxembourg, November 18-22, 2006. ACF Culinary National Team USA will compete at the Internationale Kochkunst Ausstellung (IKA) International Culinary Art Competition, more commonly known as the "culinary Olympics," in Erfurt, Germany in October. The team's history at IKA is long and distinguished. When Americans began competing as an official team in 1956, they were clearly the underdogs. However, American cookery soon established itself as world-class cuisine. The 1960 team captured the first world championship honor for the United States, and ACF Culinary Team USA repeated the distinction in 1980, 1984 and 1988 by taking the prestigious hot-food competition all three times and establishing a new world record for the most consecutive gold-medal wins. The team's most recent IKA win came in 2004, when the team took home the gold medal in hot-food cooking, reestablishing ACF Culinary National Team USA as the leader in international cooking. ACF Culinary National Team USA members are: Edward Leonard, CMC, American Academy of Chefs (AAC), ACF Culinary Team USA manager and executive chef, Westchester Country Club, Rye, N.Y; Richard Rosendale, certified executive chef (CEC), ACF Culinary Team USA captain and executive chef/owner, Rosendales, Columbus, Ohio; Joachim Buchner, CMC, executive chef, Chevy Chase Club, Chevy Chase, Md.; Jamie Keating, certified chef de cuisine (CCC), chef/owner, Gourmet Events and the RiverMill Event Center, Columbus, Ga.; Melissa K. Root, pastry chef, Payard Pâtisserie & Bistro, Las Vegas, N.V.; and Daniel Scannell, CMC, executive chef, Carnegie Abbey Club, Portsmouth, R.I.
