Contest Rules
Salón Gourmets and Fuentes are organising, for the second consecutive year, GourmeTapa by Fuentes, the championship of tapas made with bluefin tuna from this Murcian company. Pioneer in Europe in the farming and marketing of this tuna and a world leader in exports with more than 85% of its production destined for countries such as Spain, Portugal, Morocco, Malta, Italy and Tunisia.
12 participants will demonstrate what they are capable of doing with the quality of Fuentes tuna when preparing their tapas, either with the finest cuts of tuna or with less popular ones such as parpatana, carrillera, morrillo or osso buco.
Each participant will have 30 minutes to prepare 10 equal tapas whose main ingredient is bluefin tuna from Fuentes. The tapas must be quick to prepare, can be made at a bar and can be eaten in one or two mouthfuls. The jury, made up of professionals from the sector, will evaluate aspects such as flavour, originality, presentation and the commercial application of the tapa.
The winner will receive €2,000, the runner-up €1,000 and the rest of the participants a diploma, as well as a gift of Fuentes products.
