Fruity Leche Flan

You know what they say, there’s always room for dessert – especially if it’s the classic staple leche flan! Satisfy sweet tooth cravings by combining traditional flavor and modern, fruity flair.

Ingredients:

6 egg yolks, beaten

1 can (410 mL) Jolly Cow condensed milk
1 can (354 mL) evaporated milk
  juice and zest of 1 dayap
1/2 cup sugar
water, for steaming
1 can Jolly Fruit Cocktail, drained 

Caramel
3 tbsp. Water
1 cup light brown sugar

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Caramel: In a saucepan, bring the water to a boil; reduce the heat to low before adding the sugar. Stir continuously for about 2 minutes or until the sugar caramelizes or turns amber. Immediately pour the caramelized sugar into prepared individual flan mold. Swirl the flan mold to evenly spread the caramel. Set the mold aside.
  2. In a bowl, combine evaporated milk, Jolly Cow condensed milk, sugar and dayap. Gently pass the beaten eggs through a strainer into the bowl. Stir to combine and mix thoroughly. Pour the mixture into the prepared flan mold containing the caramel.
  3. Cover the mold with aluminium foil, arrange into the steamer (water should already be boiling before placing the mold inside); steam for 30 minutes or until firm. Set aside to cool and then refrigerate for at least 2 hours. Top with Jolly Fruit Cocktail upon serving.

A Multi-Cultural Afternoon Tea Experience at Le Petit Soufflé

A charming escape nestled in two of Metro Manila’s busiest malls is Le Petit Soufflé, a French-Japanese inspired restaurant that puts a twist on comfort food classics. Drawing inspiration from the kitsch and class of French cafés in Japan, Le Petit Soufflé attempts to marry the best of both cuisines into a unique and memorable dining experience… one that customers are compelled to return to, time and again. In fact, their latest offering is a multi-cultural adaptation of Afternoon Tea, re-introducing this European pastime to the Manila scene.

Having recently launched the Workshop, a bespoke bakery concept within the Le Petit Soufflé branch in the Mega Fashion Hall, it comes as no surprise that a decadent set of pastries will soon be offered alongside a selection of carefully curated teas. Pastry chefs Miko Aspiras and Kristine Lotilla will be using their years of experience in the hotel industry to treat customers with a one-of-a-kind Afternoon Tea experience for only Php 795.

The Le Petit Soufflé French Afternoon Tea experience includes lavender lemon tea, orange and almond scones served with homemade clotted cream and orange jam, a camembert and apple tartine, cheese profiteroles, a croissant served with butter and jam, foie gras and raspberry L’opera, a salted caramel and Valrhona Guanaja cone, and fairy floss. 

The British Afternoon Tea experience includes earl grey and orange tea, macadamia and Valrhona dark chocolate scones served with homemade clotted cream and raspberry jam, a meat and pea pie, mushroom and cheese gougères, croissants with butter and jam, sticky date pudding, a strawberry truffle cone, and fairy floss.

The Japanese Afternoon Tea experience includes a matcha genmai cha, a matcha scone served with adzuki red bean paste and homemade clotted cream, furikake, chasyu and mayo tartine, a matcha and black sesame cheese puff, a croissant with butter and jam, a matcha l’opera, a red bean and cream cone, and fairy floss.

Le Petit Soufflé’s quaint twinkling lights and al fresco inspired interiors make the perfect setting for a relaxed afternoon delight. It would truly not be difficult for a customer to imagine oneself in an enchanted garden in Europe sipping on a warm cup of tea, while munching on the pastries that might as well have been flown in from France, England, or Japan.

Life hacks for Modern Homemakers

Modern homemakers face a big challenge in balancing work and making sure that their family gets the best care at home. Difficult as it may seem, taking care of the family while keeping a full-time job can be made easier with efficient and reliable help.

Samsung Digital Appliances provides super moms and dads with the perfect partners in life through its innovative products.

With the right tools and tricks, homemakers can prepare fresh and healthy meals, accomplish the week’s laundry, and spare enough time to bond with the kids. Samsung shares a list of ‘life hacks’ in the kitchen and laundry room to make daily tasks simple, enjoyable, and time-efficient with the help of the Samsung Twin Cooling Refrigerator and AddWash Washing Machine.

Life Hacks in the Kitchen:

  1. Monitor temperature. When storing food, try to customize the refrigerator’s temperature settings according to its contents. The Samsung Twin Cooling Refrigerator makes it easy to set the temperature to optimal conditions with a push of a button. 

Samsung’s innovative Twin Cooling Technology gives separate temperature controls for the fridge and freezer, bringing superior energy savings and capacity for wiser consumption with each compartment set to its optimal temperature.

  1. Store food properly. Make sure to store like items together, grouping vegetables, meats, and cooked perishables. Sometimes, homemakers find their fridge overflowing while the freezer is nearly empty. For these scenarios, the Samsung Twin Cooling Refrigerator offers the flexibility of converting the freezer to a fridge to store more groceries, or to turn off one compartment depending on the family’s storage needs.

The Samsung Twin Cooling Refrigerator’s Smart Conversion feature allows for five different conversion modes: regular mode, turning the entire freezer into a fridge, keeping only the freezer on, keeping only the fridge on, and turning the freezer compartment into a mini-fridge.

  1. Do not overfill the refrigerator. Cramming the refrigerator with food will limit air circulation, which can affect food freshness. Also practice a first-in, first-out approach so that the fridge is not filled with leftovers that may go stale.

A refrigerator is truly a must-have in every home so it has to be durable, energy-efficient, and an elegant addition to the modern kitchen. The Samsung Twin Cooling Refrigerator uses digital inverter technology, which ensures efficient energy consumption. Its digital inverter compressor also comes with a 10-year warranty on motor to make sure that the family’s “partner in freshness” will serve the household for many years to come. 

Life Hacks in the Laundry Room:

  1. Schedule laundry days.  Plan when to do the laundry. Organize all items to be washed so they are ready to go into the washing machine. For times that you forget to include items of clothing into the wash, the Samsung AddWash Washing Machine lets users add missed items during the wash cycle. Users can also put in hand-wash items during the rinsing process, saving precious time and energy that are better off spent with loved ones.
  1. Segregate clothes. Gather clothes of the similar material. Never lump delicate clothing with denim and other heavier fabrics. This will avoid damage of the clothing items.  It also helps to look at the washing machine’s unique features, which can turn the product into a partner in convenience.

Samsung washing machines use the Ecobubble™ Technology, which mixes air, water and detergent to create bubbles that penetrate clothes 40 times faster than plain soap and water. The result is cleaner clothes with less power consumption.

  1. Make sure there are enough items per wash cycle. Maximize time, energy, and resources by making sure you put in enough items for every wash. Samsung’s Add Wash machine can load up to 12 kilos of clothes and offers Samsung’s SuperSpeed feature, which completes a normal wash in less than an hour without compromising wash quality. In addition, the AddWash uses Samsung’s SpeedSpray technology, where detergent is rinsed off faster through sprays of water, and a Digital Inverter motor, which ensures superior energy efficiency and minimal noise.

With the game-changing technology of Samsung Digital Appliances, modern homemakers can have partners in life that will help them in daily household tasks, allowing more quality time for the family.
