Idle Hands Are The Devil's Bakery
Cuisine & Wine Asia|July - August 2020
One of the biggest things to come out of this lockdown is the amount of time people have to devote to things they’ve always wanted to do, which has included baking. In march 2020, a recent survey showed that the second highest selling product sold so far happened to be bread making machines, showing the interest of people deciding to bake fresh bread and desserts in their own home. We asked three people to show us the sweet desserts they are making at home and why.

Ninja Pastry Babat!

Basque burnt cheesecakes are a popular trend on social media. It’s baked at a high temperature to get a burnt exterior and a creamy centre, which makes the flavours complementary to each other. Chef Sasaki Sarifi, run by two enterprising women, has created the Basque burnt cheesecake to perfection with their signature Milo flavour. “[Chef Sarifi] came about after we felt everyone needed comfort the way we do in the form of food, especially with the Covid-19 outbreak being stressful on everyone,” explains Ms Skye Yaw, one of the founders of the company, in an email interview. Her partner, Chef Sarifi, worked with Ms Yaw to scour, develop and conceptualise the different flavours popular in the market today. “We were planning to do a few for friends and family and they spread the word because they enjoyed it and wanted to show some support.”

“[These cheesecakes] are the brainchild of much research and development,” she explains, “We realised that there were many Basque burnt cheesecakes out there but none with our signature crust base or a flavour like Milo that caters to the local sweet tooth.” One of the great marketing factors about this company is the fact that the company caters to a halal audience as well. “Since we do not use pork or alcohol in our products, this was a simple decision to make,” continues Ms Yaw.

Scrambling After Eggs

Eggs are a huge part of our lives, and a large part of our lives with regards to cooking. At the same time, we tend to forget the importance of them, so ubiquitous in our lives that they then get ignored. We ask dessert creators, and chocolatiers to examine their relationship with eggs, and what would happen if eggs should, god forbid, fall out of our lives.

A Portrait Of The Chef As A Young Woman

To get a sense of Chef Aeron Choo’s work ethic as well as personality, we first have to tell the story of meeting her for the first time in her restaurant, Kappou Japanese Sushi Tapas Bar at Fortune Center. She’s working with her kitchen team, scrutinising the ingredients she has prepared, making sure that the slices of tuna she has made is up to scratch, prepping and discarding elements that she is dissatisfied with that don’t work with the dishes. Then, she pulls out a 1.7kg spiny lobster, fresh from the tank, and very much alive. When the lobster is clearly flailing from being yanked out of the tank it had been swimming in, she takes time to stroke, pet the lobster and whisper sweet nothings to calm the creature down.
