Peranakan High Tea Workshop at Jewel Changi

I recently attended the Peranakan High Tea Workshop at ABC Cooking Studio in Jewel Changi Airport in celebration of Singapore National Day, and it was an amazing experience. The workshop lasted about three hours, and I learned so much about Peranakan cuisine, one of Singaporean local favourites. First, we made Chicken Satay with Peanut Sauce. The chicken was marinated in a mix of spices, and we grilled it to perfection. The peanut sauce was creamy and delicious, a perfect match for the satay. Next, we prepared Kuih Dadar, which are pandan crêpes filled with sweet coconut. The bright green color of the crêpes was beautiful, and the filling was rich and flavorful. We also made Angku Kuih, a traditional Peranakan dessert. These are chewy rice cakes with a sweet mung bean filling. Shaping them in the special moulds was a fun and unique experience. One of the highlights was the Salted Egg Scone. This was a twist on the classic scone, with salted egg and curry leaves adding a savory touch. It was a delightful surprise and tasted amazing. Finally, we made Cendol, a refreshing dessert with pandan jelly, red beans, and gula Melaka syrup. It was the perfect way to end the workshop. The instructor was friendly and helpful, guiding us through each step. The studio was well-equipped, and the atmosphere was welcoming. Overall, it was a fantastic experience, and I highly recommend it to anyone interested in learning about Peranakan cuisine. #nationalday
