This year, consumers will also get their opportunity to decide who is best by voting in a Reader Award poll.
All the Taste Awards winners will be announced at a dinner at York Guildhall at the climax to the York festival which runs at various venues in the city from September 18th - 27th September .
The awards are open to food producers from anywhere within the county who sell their foods commercially. There is no entry fee.
There are six judged categories:
- Growers
- Butchers and Meat
- Pies
- Dairy
- Handmade (jams, pickles, chocolates, etc)
- Local Brew
How to enter... Full details, rules and an online entry form are available here.
The judges' decision will be final – and this year one of the judges can be you.
Help us choose the best food that comes out of Yorkshire by taking part in the Reader Award tastings to be held at the York Guildhall on Saturday 19th September - 11am to 3pm.
You will be invited to taste from a shortlist of products that will have been drawn up by the Taste Yorkshire judges headed by Michael Hjort, the director of the York Food Festival. Michael is an independent chef restaurateur of Melton's and Melton's Too in York.
