Prospective contestants are being urged to "indulge the Italiano in Your Soul" with new recipes of their own creation. All recipes must use standard measurements and readily available ingredients, and no recipe may have been published before or won any prior prize or award.

Recipes will be judged on the basis of originality, ease of preparation, taste, clarity and completeness of instructions, and good use of Bertolli products.

Runner-up to the grand-prize winner will receive a one-week Italian dinner tour of the United States for two. Each of 10 second-prize winners will spend an evening at a favorite local Italian restaurant and receive a $250 shopping spree A $150 spree plus a full course of cooking school instruction will go to 10 winners of third prizes.

And then there are 3,000 additional awards of recipe binders and designer cooking aprons.

Entries will be screened by Responsive Marketing Communications, Inc., an independent judging organization. The top 22 recipes will then be kitchen-tested by an independent panel of judges under RMC supervision.
