Move over, Top Chef.

A chef at the Austin Hy-Vee, Kristine Merten, has won top honors in the national Mad About Crave Brothers Mascarpone Recipe Contest.

The presentation features layers of salt-roasted beet medallions and a filling of Mascarpone mixture with scallions, salt and pepper. It’s topped with a drizzle of red wine and balsamic reduction, then sprinkled with candied walnuts. The appetizer is finished by a garnish of micro greens atop the medallion tower.

Merten wins a $300 prize and an Apple iPad.
