Our Featured Event is Liberty High School’s participation in the Oregon ProStart Championships. On Monday, March 13th Liberty High School seniors Maxx Weber and Thalia Thomas, junior Jason Kruger, and teacher and coach Melissa Buechler traveled to Salem to compete in ProStart - the Oregon Hospitality Foundation’s event showcasing the industry’s future chefs and managers. The culinary challenge was to prepare a three-course gourmet meal with only two butane burners in under an hour. Their menu included an appetizer of Rockfish Ceviche with Fresh Tortilla Chips; a main dish of Chipotle Steelhead with Cilantro-Lime Couscous and Sautéed Chayote Squash; and a dessert of Mascarpone Mousse in a Dark Chocolate Shell, Toasted Chili Crunch & Cara Cara Oranges. Liberty’s was the smallest team of any group competing, and unfortunately did not place in the competition. However, two chef judges said the team’s dessert was their favorite, and one chef asked for their Steelhead marinade recipe. Learn more on our website.
