I was invited to the Bosch Master Gourmet Launch on Saturday where I got the first hand experiential viewing of the new Bosch MaxxiMUM Kitchen Machine and the new Bosch MaxoMixx Hand Blender.
These cool kitchen gadgets will be available at all leading departmental and electrical stores from 1 April 2014 onwards.
During this media session, we got to see hands on action of 5 recipes by Chef Stephan Zoisi from My Private Chef. It was super cool watching Chef Stephan make bacon ice cream with dry ice, felt like a MasterChef episode! The food were all very yummy too!
We then formed small groups and got to create our own Bombe Alaska dessert - this was super fun! Below is my creation! :)

I personally was super thrilled by the bacon ice-cream making process. The smoothie recipe is also a keeper - healthy and yummy. The pasta was so delicious too!
1. Smoothie (6 portions) Recipe

Banana 2 pc
Pineapple 1no
Blueberries 500g
Yogurt 500g
Crushed ice as preferred

Cut the fruits like banana and pineapple into smaller pieces. Place all the ingredients into the MaxxiMUM Blender attachment and blend until the crushed ice is incorporated.
2. Bacon Ice Cream Recipe (8 portions)
*made with dry ice
Ingredients
Milk 600ml
Streaky bacon 200g
Sugar 100g
Eggs 8
Cream 450ml
Method
1. Roast bacon in a pan till crips. Remove and drain on kitchen towel.
2. Preheat milk and cream, add the bacon and infuse for at least 2 to 3 hours (best overnight)
3. Whisk sugar and egg yolk until creamy, add in the bacon infused milk mixture. Sieve to remove the bacon bits.
4. Put the mixture back on the stove and cooked (while stirring constantly) until it reaches a custard stage. Let it cool and transfer into fridge.
5. Transfer into the mixing bowl and add dry ice while whisking the mixture. Stop when it reaches the ice cream texture.
6. Serve or store in fridge. At the event, the bacon ice cream was served with cheese souffle! yum!
The other yummy food that Chef Stephen introduced included Pasta Bolognese (with homemade pasta!), Cheese Souffle and Bombe Alaska.
We made the strawberry sauce using fresh strawberries and icing sugar. Whipped up our meringue and each of us got to plate and torch our own dessert! So fun!!
This was my creation and plating! Hehe, what do you think??
