I Miss Baking! So Many Recipes

baking recipes
So glad that I do not have to work this weekend and finally discover some 'me-time'! Attended my first baking workshop for 2009 - CNY Special: Old & New Favourites by Guest Pastry Chef Daniel Tay, CEO Bakerzin, at Shermay's Cooking School.

The 5 demo recipes are:
  • Kaya

  • Pineapple Tarts

  • Zesty Lemon Pound Cake (from Daniel Tay's recipe e-book 'just desserts') - Good friend WH loves this and i baked it for him final 12 months based on the recipe. I think he'll be glad that this time I learnt it from the master himself.

  • Cream Cheese Cupcakes

  • Pistachio Cranberry Cookies



Ingredients for house-made kaya are fairly easy and simple to arrange. I like the richness and fragrance of the coconut milk with contact of pandan juice. LOL. The texture of residence-made kaya is slightly rough, and appears humble but wholesome. The catch is stirring the kaya Continuously for forty five mins to an hour over low induction heat or gradual cooker, otherwise the kaya burns very simply. Smells heavenly, I believe I can get a high on sniffing this one.

The pineapple tarts I made last 12 months have been taken from Chef Chris Tan's recipe ebook "Shiok!". But I'm definitely eager to learn new strategies and recipes. I believe those that tried the tarts preferred them.

Chef Daniel Tay uses industrial pineapple filling which I discover a tad too sweet and minced for my liking. I guess I still want the house-made pineapple filling, which took 2hrs to cook, tedious course of unfortunately.

But I really like his pastry! Probably I may mix the methods of both recipes. The tart literally melts in the mouth and fairly light in style.

Pistachio & Dried Cranberry Cookies. Love the crunch and would not style too candy. This cookie has bits of inexperienced and purple, apt for Chinese New Year and very straightforward to make.

Everybody lurves Cream Cheese Cake and this one's better with Oreo biscuits as base (and fold in if want to) and cream cheese mousse :d~~~

Best served chilled, and let the creamy cake melt in the mouth. I believe including some zesty preserved strawberry or berry is a pleasant twist.

The zesty lemon pound cake with cream cheese glaze is nice! Contrary to ordinary pound cakes, this one is gentle and not too dense. Chef Daniel Tay used to promote this in his Bakerzin cafes however not anymore. The lemony style shouldn't be too heavy on the palate either. Gonna bake this for WH one among today. Our take-house box of goodies - cream cheese cupcake, lemon pound cake, pistachio & cranberry cookies and freshly made kaya (not in image).

I miss baking! So many recipes, which one shall I start with? Really in a dilemma whether or not to relaxation or bake...
