November 17, 2023 Charleston Daily 0 Lowcountry,

CHARLESTON, S.C.–In a culinary master class that will undoubtedly leave a lasting impact on the Charleston culinary scene, Chef Ty Kotz recently shared his expertise with the aspiring chefs, ages 8-14, of the Young Chefs® Academy (YCA) of Charleston. Chef Kotz, acclaimed for his role as the Executive Chef at Tom Colicchio’s Topping Rose House in Bridgehampton, New York, where he garnered accolades for his exceptional farm-to-table cuisine, conducted an exclusive session for the MasterChefs™ at YCA on Nov. 10.

During the event, the MasterChefs™ absorbed Chef Ty Kotz’s passion for culinary arts and commitment to excellence through hands-on demos, personal guidance, and interactive discussions while cooking their own interpretations of his recipe. They improved their cooking abilities and gained a deeper appreciation for the artistry and creativity that shape the culinary world from one of America’s top chefs.

Following an opportunity to serve as guest chef at the legendary James Beard House in NYC, Chef Kotz and his family relocated to Charleston, where he has passionately established relationships with local farmers, purveyors, and fishermen, emphasizing the importance of sourcing and growing local ingredients. Chef Kotz draws inspiration for his private events and home kitchen consulting from his three decades of experience and his commitment to utilizing locally sourced elements.

The black MasterChef™ Jackets awarded by the Young Chefs® Academy (YCA) of Charleston signify a significant accomplishment for Junior Chefs™. This distinction is earned by students who diligently followed the structured curriculum, successfully passed knowledge assessments, and attained the required patches on their white coats. The black jacket marks the prestigious recognition of being a YCA-certified MasterChef™, a coveted honor for those who have demonstrated exceptional dedication and culinary proficiency.
