United around a loaf

United around a loaf

To strengthen family relationships and encourage parents and kids to spend more time together, Mercedes-Benz Leasing (Thailand) organised an exclusive cooking workshop “The Cooking for Fun Workshop: Chigiri Bread” at ABC Cooking Studio at CentralWorld.

Managed by chef Sirasa Laoputthipong and culinary experts, it provided instruction on the proper baking of Chigiri Bread, an attractive Japanese-style loaf. 

“We’d like to thank our customers for their trust and support by holding this cooking class for parents and children. In addition to the sheer fun of baking, this class aims to enhance the creativity, self-development, and imagination of children,” said its general manager of marketing Pattarapol Techasamran.

Originating in Japan, Chigiri is a derivation of the term “Chicken and Chick”.

It is easy to bake so young children and adults can help each other at every step,” chef Sirasa added. “In addition, the bread is very tasty since it is stuffed with cheese and the main ingredients include bread flour, processed cheese, curry powder, turmeric, black sesame seeds, and ketchup. And decorating the bread is fun too.”

Parents and their children were asked to work as a team to knead the dough, mix, bake, and finally decorate the hen and her chicks on top of the bread. Children who joined the workshop also learned to focus when kneading the dough and to follow rules and precautions to avoid injuries when making and baking the bread. Finally, they could maximise their creativity by decorating eyes, beaks, and crests of both hens and chicks.

 “I was very pleased to join this special cooking class as it allowed every family member to spend valuable time together. My daughter not only learned how to bake bread but also to practise her focus, attention to detail, and patience,” said celebrity Benyiam Songwattana.
