I won the world porridge making championship at the Golden Spurtle contest, and I couldn’t be happier! My Sticky Toffee Pudding recipe was co-winner of the speciality award!
Just a super quick post to let you know the news! I shared the Specialty Award with Chris Young, who made a savory porridge dish!

During the world porridge making championship competition and judging.
With Golden Spurtle winner, Izhar Khan! He was elated to win, too!

There’s a rather long story as to why I competed in the World Porridge Making Championship or Golden Spurtle Competition in the first place, and the things that transpired to bring me to Carrbridge. Let’s just say that it seems karma did her job on this day and I couldn’t be more pleased!
Maybe one day I’ll tell the whole story. It’s a good one.
If you’re ever in Scotland in early October, you may want to head up to Carrbridge to watch the competition at the village hall. It’s truly quite exciting! Don’t miss the bridge in the village, if you go!
