LEARNING TO COOK AT HIRSCH'S

Due to popular demand, Hirsch’s Centurion recently hosted their first Domestic Cooking course, with 23 ladies in attendance.

 

Said Hirsch’s Joanne Brunette “With the kind assistance of our Suppliers Snappy Chef and Zwilling, the course was a huge success.  Copies of the recipes were given to all participants, who could follow the different steps.” 

The different recipes that were demonstrated were:

Egg Muffins

Basic Tuna Tart

Chicken Stroganoff

Curry for Beginners

Banana Pancakes

 

The Domestics were able to sample all of the dishes, and if the ‘oohs and aahs’ and the empty plates afterwards was anything to go by, the food was enjoyed by all! 

 

Certificates of completion were presented to all Attendees. 

Hirsch’s plan to repeat this course on a monthly basis.  Contact joanne@hirschs.co.za for more information.

MAKING ONE-HANDED COOKING A REALITY!

BRAUN’S MULTIQUICK 7 HANDBLENDER...

 

Available from all Hirsch branches (stock code 47872) The Braun Multiquick 7 hand blender (MQ735) brings amazing new technology to the science of hand blenders – Smart Speed. The more you squeeze the more power you get. Yep! One squeeze, all speeds!

 

This means that you can literally prepare meals with one hand behind your back. By gently pressing the extra-large speed button on the regulator, the blender goes faster or slower.

 

What’s more, the Multiquick 7 comes with the kind of extras that make food preparation a piece of cake. There’s the PowerBell blender with ultra-hard stainless steel blades and unique bell-shaped blending shaft – easily attachable with a single click – that gives a finer, more even, perfect blend. There’s a BPA-free plastic beaker with both ml and fl oz measurements.  And there’s also a whisk and chopper.

Hirsch's Centurion hosts the Defy Junior Super Chef Competition

WIERDA PARK CENTURION PUPIL WINS HIRSCH, DEFY JUNIOR SUPER CHEF COMPETITION

 

Lidene Lubbe (8), a pupil at Wierdapark Laerskool was the winner of the 1st Gauteng leg of the popular Hirsch and Defy Junior Super Chef competition that was held in the Hirsch Centurion recently.  Lidene won a Defy hand Blender together with a Defy hamper and Cookery Book, and will go on to compete in the Regional Finals of the competition that is being held at the Hirsch’s Fourways Branch on July 11.

 

Ten contestants, ranging in age from 8 to 13, battled it out on the showroom floor. They had to show off their cooking skills, using a mystery bag of products and cooking on a Snappy Chef induction plate and Defy Microwave Air oven to impress judges:  Chefs Paul Lotter and Trudie Jansen van Vuuren, Lourine Wannenburg (semi-finalist in the Kokkedoor and Koekedoor reality cooking show on KykNet), and Magda Mitton, Hirsch’s HR Manager.

 

Speaking on behalf of the judges, Trudie Jansen van Vuuren said that she was extremely impressed by the way the little chef’s handled themselves in this particular environment where they had to cook in front of an audience. “Their menus were planned and well thought out and the food was absolutely delicious.” She said.

 

Lourine’s parents, Tania and Herman Lubbe and her entire support group including her sister Elandri, were overwhelmed with excitement. “This competition ran so smoothly and professionally, and it was made so special for the children – we were so impressed.  You definitely exceeded our expectations. Everybody was a winner!” Said Tania.

 

Second place was a tie and went to 13 year old Ian van Nieuwenhuizen and 8 year old Lihle Cristovao.
