My First Baking Workshop

I'm getting jittery!! LOL.

I'm participating in the Malaysian Food Festival  (no no, the the blogging event that I'm organizing).
It's a food ingredient exhibition that has food companies promoting their products. One of the participating companies is QBB Ghee. I was approached by Chef Ryan Khang to be part of the team. It's a great honour!

What I'll be doing is, I'll be conducting a cookie baking workshop using QBB ghee.
My first public demonstration.
I've done demos before, but that was with my students back in school, it's not the same, LOL. Just 20 girls surrounding me.... this is going to be like.... with microphones attached and a chef's uniform too!

It's a big step for me to be doing this. I never thought that blogging could land me in this someday. what started off as a record of my culinary journey has led me to this far.





Information of my workshop:
Date: 19th Jan 2013
Time: 2-4pm
Venue: Hall 2,
         Mid Valley Exhibition Center
           (Top floor, entrance via Center Court next to Nike Shop)
Cost:  Free admission

I'll be demonstrating a few cookies; Matcha snake cookies, peanut rolls, and barazek.
Recipe leaflets will be provided and there will be sampling sessions.
I'll try to make it into an interactive demo session. It's boring to sit there and just seeeeeeeeeee. And I'll be using a few languages (Malay, English and Cantonese) and no worries about asking questions. I'll try my best to answer you.

But if you have the time, you also can visit the exhibition on other days, as there are other chefs conducting workshops each day. I believe that Chef Ryan Khang is no stranger to many. If you frequent Jaya Grocer@ Empire, surely you would've seen his demos and if you have flipped through My Nourishment magazine, you defintely have seen him there. A new magazine under him will be launching soon, and this is the website.

Gina Tan is the owner of the baking ingredient shop Baker's One in Puchong and Kepong. I heard she is very good in making pastries, especially Chinese pastries.


So, come to Mid Valley on these dates and you won't leave empty handed :)
