Artists have used cloth, plaster, stone and other mediums to produce art, and on Thursday pizza dough will be added to the list.
The Student Activities Board in partnership with UK Dining Services will host the second Wildcat Cook-off of the semester Thursday at 7 p.m. in Blazer Cafe with a “Pizza Pizzazz†theme. Four contestants will have 40 minutes to produce a creative and tasteful pizza that wows a three-judge panel of UK Dining Service chefs.
Aubrey Collier, an economics senior and SAB director of cultural arts, said the pizzas would be judged on creativity, appearance and taste, and the winner will receive $200 in cookware.
SAB will provide all cookware and ingredients for the contestants, then the contestants will have 10 minutes of prep time and 30 minutes to cook and serve their pizzas. Judges will then only get 15 minutes to chose a winner.
Collier said the first cook-off had a “Dorm Domination†theme and students were tasked with creating a meal with at least one ingredient found in a normal dorm room.
“Most of the students used macaroni,†Collier said. “They created a gourmet macaroni and cheese.â€
Another student made a version of puppy chow from cereal.
Collier said students may get a taste of the creations after the judges and encourages people to come to Blazer Cafe and taste some art.
The “Pizza Pizzazz†Wildcat Cook-Off competiton starts at 7 p.m. on Thursday in Blazer Dining Hall. The event is free and open to the public.
