Spice Up Your Kitchen with Chefology & McCormick@ The Cooking House Bangsar
Thank you for the invitation from The Cooking House Bangsar, McCormick & Chefology, I’ve attended the private blogger Meet and Greet cum cooking workshop a couple of days ago at The Cooking House Bangsar. We were introduced to the newest addition to Oasis Swiss Sdn Bhd’s Chefology range of cookware, the Chefology Nature series, comprising a collection of five cookware items designed for comfort and convenience of cooking in the kitchen
The latest Chefology Nature series
Designed with an ergonomic structure, the cookware is made of die-cast aliminium with a six-layer coating and ensure a safer cooking experience. This new series of cookware boasts a highly durable marble ceramic coating features:
- Durable, scratch-resistant marble ceramic non-stick coating.
- Ergonomic stainless steel long handle for solid grip.
- Even heat distribution with minimal heat loss.
Chefology Nature cookware works on all stoves, including gas, electric, ceramic and induction cooktops, not to mention being dishwasher safe.
McCormick herbs and spices also being showcased in the session. Among all these products, the McCormick Sea Salt and Black Pepper Grinder which feature an adjustable grinder with three different grind setting: fine, medium and coarse. One can adjust the the coarseness of the salt and pepper with justΒ simple movement of the dial. McCormick products are distributed in Malaysia by GBA Corporation Sdn Bhd.
Harvested from the the French Mediterranean Sea, the McCormick Sea Salt tends to be coarser with a higher concentration of minerals.Β
Another products from McCormick that being featured in the workshop was the McCormick Grill Mates BBQ Sauce series. They are not only great as marinade to provide robust flavours to the meat, but also excellent as a sauce, dipping and glaze. This range of BBQ Sause is available in three mouth-watering flavours: Vintage Smokehouse (smoky hickory layered with spices like chili pepper and paprika), Brown Sugar (sweet with brown sugar, onion, cinnamon and cloves) and Chili and Pepper (A blend of onion, tomato, chili pepper, capsicum and cloves)
Opening speeches by representatives of Chefology and McCormick.
The cooking workshop was conducted by Chef Collin Edward Lim of The Cooking House.
The session was started with briefing and demonstration by Chef Collin Edward Lim. He demonstrated the process of cooking 3 dishes which included Braised Short Ribs, Cheesy Black Pepper Chicken Salad and Basil Crepes with Caramelized Banana.

It was indeed a fun cooking workshop session as Chef Collin not only have a good sense of humour but also an affable person that shared a lot of useful tips for cooking with us.
That was also a cook off session where we are teamed into a group of three and prepared the dishes of Cheesy Black Pepper Chicken Salad and Basil Crepes with Caramelized Banana. My team mates that day were Aunty Lilly and Kelly.
OMG, so serious my face >_<
Here’s our creations that day, although we didn’t win the competition but we’ve tried our best to prepare the food with surprising and creativity elements. It was a fun experience to work with these two ladies.

First of all, I’m all for Chefology…in fact, that was the pan I used in my recent One Pan Breakfast. I tried it for the first time after getting it at a very good promo price…and loved it. Now I’d love to get another one…or a ‘free one’ like you? Kikiki! π
Second of all, I cook with McCormick spices all the time…how I wish I can get each and every spice…haha…but they’re too expensive to stock and I end up not being able to use them up before expiry! π I didn’t know that there’s a black peppercorn grinder version…must look out for that instead of just buying the black peppercorns.
Kris, the Chefology pan I used during the workshop really make me fall in love with it, although I already have similar non-stick pans at home π There is always ‘not enough pan’ situation for aunty like me, haha!
I’m using McCormick the black pepper grinder all these while and definitely love it for its air-tight feature which keep the spice fresh.
I heard from the representative of Chefology that there will be a contest which will be held at Aeon supermarket, try to look out for that and maybe you can win some pan or pot home! Good Luck!
I don’t know about those pans but I do use their herbs and spices. I have quite a selection at home.
Merryn, I have a few at home too π
OMG how can you not win?! All the professionals are in your team wor!
Ken, OMG why I cannot lose, there is always mountain higher out there mah >_<
