LOUISVILLE, Ky. High school cooking teams from around the country are competing in April to serve up food that will literally get sent out of this world, with a partnership between Sullivan University in Louisville and NASA bringing everything together.
Sullivan s College of Hospitality Studies Culinary Arts Program is teaming with NASA s HUNCH program to judge the competition that will select a recipe from a high school cooking team to be served to the astronauts aboard the International Space Station.
This month, Sullivan chefs will make the recipes created by the top 10 high school teams in the U.S. that are competing for college scholarships in The NASA Hunch Culinary Challenge, which requires knowledge of space physiology, food science and processing food for the microgravity environment.
