Cooking demo by Ms Theresa Wong from Panasonic for the Singapore Blog Awards 2015.


On 20th June 2015, I attended the cooking demo by Ms Theresa Wong from Panasonic for the Singapore Blog Awards 2015 as jointly organized with omy. Although this year is my second year in attending this cooking demo, I learnt new things. For example, I learnt that the cake mode function of the bread maker could be used to aid in making kaya. Kaya being my favourite comfort food can now be easily done without having me to stand most of the time to keep on stirring the kaya. Besides that, having a powerful hand blender is also important cos it helps to make the kaya smooth.

Here're  some pictures of the process of making kaya using the cake mode of the bread maker



We had a volunteer, Elaine learning how to make kaya as her son loves Kaya.
She did the mixing with the guidance from Theresa.






While when using the cake mode,the stirring of the Kaya is still needed once in a while.It is best to use the plastic spatula to do the stirring.So that you do not scrape off the metal stuff in the baking tin.

Yes, no longer one will need to go out to buy kaya with perservatives if one owns the bread maker.

Next, we looked at learning how to cook the herbal emperor chicken by using the steam function of the microwave oven.



To me, a microwave oven would only consist of the microwave functions. However, this model NN-CS894 consist of the functions like steaming using pure steam, microwave, grilling, defrosting of food and many more.

Key feature of the turbo steam function


One thing that Theresa mentioned that the microwave oven could do pure steam mode instead of using the microwave style of steam mode. All you need to do is to put some water in the tray to enable this pure steam mode to be able to function. Please do not use the recycled water from the tray to use it to cook the food. There will be a notification when the water level is too low and will not be able to steam. So one must top up the water level to allow the steaming function to function again.

The herbal emperor chicken was tender and succulent when eating it. Sorry no pictures can be shown cos the time when i got to taste the chicken it was almost on the finishing end. I hardly could believe that it was cooked by microwave cos since young I never had any meals which was cooked via microwave.


 Most importantly is that having this microwave oven not only allow us to have healthy cooking.It also allow us to do cooking without much hassle, no more dirty kitchen after cooking and the cleaning of this oven is easy.
