May 2023 Challenge: SPRING
In the Northern hemisphere, we’re finally entering spring. In Europe, that means asparagus, peas, lamb, poussin, and so forth. But here at ChefTalk, we’ve got an international membership: what’s seasonal where you are might be a very different list, and indeed, some people are going into autumn.
NEVERTHELESS…
The theme for this month’s Challenge is Spring. Make one or more dishes or meals inspired by springtime. AND explain, however briefly, why your creation fits the theme. (For example, “a popular springtime delicacy here on Mars is giant space-frog legs, so here’s a dish of flash-fried legs with moon sauce.”)

(For example, “a popular springtime delicacy here on Mars is giant space-frog legs, so here’s a dish of flash-fried legs with moon sauce.”)
The rules, such as they are:
- You may post multiple entries.
- All entries must be cooked during the month of the challenge.
- If you use a documented recipe, please cite your source.
- Entries should include the name of your dish and a picture of the final product. Sharing personal recipes and pictures of the process are not mandatory but extremely helpful.
- The winner is chosen by the person who posted the challenge and is announced after the last day of submissions. The decision is final and falls entirely at the discretion of the challenger.
- Submitting an entry makes you eligible to win. If you do not wish to be considered for the win you may still participate in the challenge, but make your wishes known.
- The winner’s bounty includes praise, virtual high-fives, and the responsibility of posting the next month’s challenge. That entails choosing a theme, posting a Challenge thread that includes the guidelines, checking in on the submissions regularly during the month, and promptly choosing a winner at the end of the challenge.
