Day 18. The busy schedule has finally got me and now I am coming down with something. The throat is itchy, the nose is blocked, and my eyes are watery, been suffering hay fever for the last few days and I can’t taste and smell anything. Urgh! My world is definitely upside down, inside out [...]
Day 17. Ain’t no mountain high enough. Good to be back in Sydney! Peter and I have just finished a 4-day cooking show in Perth at Coles supermarket and we had an absolute ball! At times it felt like we were still on Masterchef, fighting over prepping benches and stealing each other ingredients, but most [...]
Day 16. The black beauty. I always wanted to make a black jelly since the beginning of this Royal Selangor 30-day ‘Get your jelly on’ Challenge and trying to think of what I can use to make one. I tried glass jelly powder which didn’t work out that well, it was muddy and lack of [...]
Day 15. I’ve finally made the half way mark. Funny thing is I am actually quite enjoying this whole Royal Selangor 30-day ‘Get your jelly on’ Challenge and seeing all the “crazy ideas” I have in my head slowly come to life! For this next dessert, I called it Mandarin PC, it is half mandarin [...]
Day 14. Hello Perth! I am actually currently in Perth, cooking at COLES in Park Centre until Sunday. It has been a hit yesterday, Peter and I cooked up a storm, a total of 10 dishes to feed everyone who came to see us! Not to mention the Coca-cola chicken, you have to come to [...]
Day 13. Whoever watched MasterChef Australia season 3 would have seen me making my very first Bombe Alaska during the pressure test. I obviously enjoyed the challenge a little too much and started deviating from the original Bombe Alaska that we were shown before the challenge. I actually didn’t even think that it could be [...]
Day 12. Easy Peasy, Berry Fizzy. Have to keep reminding myself, take picture first before blasting the jelly off into the air! This particular is so soft that the tip snapped off right after I finished filming the boombox test, and I didn’t even get a chance to take a proper shot of the jelly! [...]
Day 11. Rainbow Pride. Can you believe it, I’ve made 1/3 of all the 30 jellies and still surviving? GO ME! This Royal Selangor 30-day ‘Get your jelly on’ Challenge has definitely tested my patience, endurance and perseverance. But hey, anything for a good cause, especially raising awareness about breast cancer. So ladies, have you [...]
Day 10. Life has been hectic. While juggling between jellies the Royal Selangor 30-day ‘Get your jelly on’ challenge, I also spent the whole weekend cooking up a storm at MasterChef Live and Malaysia Festival. I had a fantastic time meeting so many people who came up to say hi and still a little surreal [...]
Day 9. I scream, you scream, we scream for POP ROCKS ICE CREAM! I’ve been experimenting a lot using pop rocks lately, trying to find ways how to incorporate them into different type of desserts, hot and cold. Pop rocks in dessert is nothing new really, Adriano Zumbo uses it, Heston Blumenthal uses it; but [...]
Day 8. Thank you for all the birthday wishes! Despite I actually spent my birthday working at MasterChef Live event, I had a great time and got to meet a lot of MasterChef fans. This weekend will be busy for me, as I will be at MasterChef Live again today, and then tomorrow I will [...]
Day 7. Guess who’s birthday it is today? Most people I’ve shown the Royal Selangor Nick Munro jelly mould to will immediately associated with Madonna. (I wonder why?) And when I asked The Pom for jelly ideas, he had a play with them and naturally cupped them on his chest. ~*palmed face*~ Besides, this 30-day [...]
Day 6. Before Adriano Zumbo, there is Pierre Herme. For those who loves macaron would have heard of this name, he is known to many as “the Picasso of Pastry”. Pierre is most famous for his macarons, and perhaps his most famous is the Ispahan, made with rose, lychee, and raspberry. I’ve made these ispahan [...]
Day 5. Aussie! Aussie! Aussie! This jelly I am going with the national colours of Australia, the classic green and gold combo. Also, the summer is slowly approaching, so I intend to make something more refreshing, lemony. And Aussies love summer and surfing, when I saw this lopsided jelly turned out of the mould, it [...]
