IT’S TIME TO HAVE YOUR SAY IN OUR GOLDEN TOMATO COOK COMPETITION 2023

VOTE NOW FOR YOUR FAVOURITE MENU

Voting closes at 23.59 on October 12th!

After the success of the competition last year, we are back and looking for our UK Golden Tomato Cook 2023. To enter, we asked consumers to create a 3-course menu (starter, main, and bonus dish of their choice), using 3 different Mutti products from the essentials range in each course, making the Mutti product the hero of each recipe.

After receiving a fantastic number of amazing entries, we have whittled them down to the best 5 and now we need your help to find our Golden Tomato Cook 2023 finalists – all you need to do is vote for your favourite menu by clicking on the heart icon below by 23.59 on October 12th.

The 3 with the highest votes will go through to the live final where they’ll take part in a cook-off at Sauce by The Langham, London. Their menus will be judged by our panel of expert judges – Ben Tish, Gabriella Margiotta, Nigel Barden, and Carlo Casoni – based on the criteria:

Making the Mutti Essentials product the hero of the dish
Originality
Presentation (hero’ing the tomatoes)
Overall menu appeal
Taste

The menu with the highest score at the live final will then be crowned our Mutti Golden Tomato Cook 2023 winner and will win a once in a lifetime trip to Parma, Italy – the home of Mutti, in the Italian Food Valley PLUS an exclusive mentoring experience with chef Ben Tish.
