In conjunction with the 90th anniversary of BOH Plantations Sdn Bhd (BOH), the tea experts partnered with brand advocate, Dato’ Fazley Yaakob to introduce a new way to enjoy tea. By creating three simple dishes, namely the Ile Flottante, Herba Ratus Seafood Pasta with Sirih Purut infused cream, Teh Tarik Mug Cake with white chocolate and Jasmine Green Tea cream, BOH continues to reach Malaysians through local flavours that are close to the heart with an extra Ummph!
During the cooking demonstration held at SukaSucre Event Hall, BOH and the celebrity MasterChef shared their insights behind incorporating tea in everyday cooking. The invited guests also got a chance to experience preparing the main dish during a guided cooking lesson by Dato’ Fazley.
Kick starting the culinary experience, the entrée was introduced with the BOH Hibiscus Zest. This variant was used to poach the meringue to create the Ile Flottante giving it a smooth texture and combination of fruity, flowery, and minty flavours.
The next course where the invitees also had a chance to attempt was an Italian dish with a local twist. Using BOH’s Malay Herb range to create the pasta not only reflects time-honoured Malay tradition and culture but essentiates the treasured trove of remedies for healing, cleansing, nourishment, and vitality. The use of Herba Ratus gives the pasta a savoury and earthy tasting note that awakens, while the Sirih Purut elevates the creamy base with a zesty and peppery kick. If you are interested in the recipe, we have it here just for you!
For dessert, BOH’s 2 in 1 Instant Tea Mix was used to create the perfectly creamy and smooth Teh Tarik Mug Cake topped with white chocolate and sweet-scented Jasmine Green Tea cream. This recipe for the mug cake can also be used using BOH’s Potbag Tea.
With the introduction of these three dishes in the menu, BOH hopes to instil a desire in Malaysians to explore different ways of using BOH products in their everyday cooking and continue to unite them through their favourite food and drinks by BOH.
