On the 6th of Sempember ended the sixth official Cascina San Cassiano contest: "Trasgressioni d'estate: birra, sushi e cappuccino" (Summer transgressions: beer, sushi and cappuccino).
Once again, the organization decided to test the skills of bloggers affiliated with the brand, but not only.
In fact, the competition was open to everybody, so all new bloggers who participated to the competition have becomed partners of Cascina San Cassiano.
The name chosen by the organization for this new challenge had multiple meanings, starting from its title: "Trasgressioni d'estate" (Summer transgressions).
Although the terminology may recall that concept, the contest had nothing to do with eroticism.
The concept of "transgression" was in fact referring to the choice of the main themes of the competition, namely the three foods/drinks that made the subtitle: beer, sushi and cappuccino.
Why this choice? First, because the three subjects, vulgarly speaking, do not have anything in common.
Sushi is typically associated with white wine, according to the most renowned chefs national and international, and cappuccino is a typical morning drink, even if someone, especially among the Germanic peoples, like to drink it after a meal.
The transgression was then to associate these three subjects, which were the themes of the contest.
Each participant has worked for one or more of the three areas, offering a recipe accompained by photographs and/or video, and possibly a PLUS.
Finally we can pronunce the typical sentence "And the winner is..." or better "And the winners are...", infact Cascina San Cassiano has given prizes to the first three in the final ranking.
Once again the results have been declared by one of the judges of the competition.
Ladies and gentlemen, we are proud to present Paolo, home brewer, beerblogger and food/beer pairings expert who has pronunced the results live from Gallo Wine Gallery, the official showroom of the brand Cascina San Cassiano.
