Together with three fellow food bloggers Az, Melo, & Arpee, we guested in a cooking show entitled “Secrets of the Masters.” It was an honor to be one of the food tasters for the dishes prepared personally by Chef Sau Del Rosario.
Briefly, Chef Sau Del Rosario is one of the country’s young top chef who first came into light when he was with M Cafe back in 2004. He now has his own Thai restaurant in Angeles called “Kingdom“.
He prepared 4 dishes namely
- Century Tuna Thai Fish Cakes
- French Brie Cake with Candied Fruits and Nuts
- Roasted Duck with Creamy Orange Sauce
- Mixed Berry Trifle with Mascarpone Cheeze
However, we were only able to stay for the first two since we have another errand to attend to.
Nonetheless, the experience was something else as we sampled the Century Tuna Thai Fish Cakes fresh from the chef’s kitchen. The tuna was chunkier as expected from a premium red label century tuna (the one used by Chef Sau).
The French Brie Cake with candied fruits and nuts was a real eye candy and fitting for the holiday season.
There was no cooking involved. Chef Sau simply placed the fruits and nuts at the bottom followed by the French Brie filling the whole container. he finally turned it upside down, removed the tin and taraan…the Feench Cake with candied fruits and nuts. 🙂 I loved how the French cheese was slightly sweet and not eccentric.
Above is a collection of short clips from the show.
So please do watch out for the airing of this show on December 20, 2009 at QTV 11, Sunday, 7:30pm. Secrets of the Masters air at this time every week. See us savor Chef Sau Del Rosario‘s Century Tuna Thai Fish Cakes and the French Brie Cake. 🙂
