Fun Food Discovery: The Knorr Kitchenhood Clinic

Kitchen Wonders with Knorr

Knorr Kitchenhood Clinic at Uniliver


September 1, 2014 at Uniliver in U.N. Avenue, is where I discovered exceptional dishes made with love through Knorr products. I was very lucky to have been part of this fun cooking event at the Knorr kitchen where I get to meet new friends and be with star chefs Sari Jorge and of course Knorr's very own Dianne Dela Cruz.

Chef Dianne dela Cruz giving out practical cooking tips and graciously answers every questions.

Chef Sari Jorge in action demonstrating the proper way of making pesto base pasta sauce for our Penne dish. I never thought this could be so easy with Knorr around.


I am a certified foodie that loves to cook and regularly prepare dishes for my family on a daily basis. Everyday is a Knorr day for us since no dish is complete without any Knorr product. You can even check my pantry I have a stash of Knorr products like the Knorr Sinigang sa Gabi Mix, Knorr Cubes, Knorr Seasoning and Knorr Soup. 


Knorr Winning Dish: Spicy Chicken in Coconut Milk with a Twist


Spicy Chicken in Coconut Milk which we cooked with a new twist.

This dish was truly experimental since the traditional way of preparing coconut milk based dishes involve adding in some spices. But we did the extra-ordinary thing by adding our "top secret" ingredient which gave it a nice tangy flavor and add some kick into this lovely local dish.

Our team saw the positive response from our judges in the Knorr Kitchenhood Clinic cook-off challenge, as they taste our original concoction. Judges took not one but a few more bites of our Knorr ginataang manok dish and instantly saw some smiles from them. That's when our team realized that we did the right thing. Whew!! 

Our original take on Pesto Penne Seafood Pasta made even better with Knorr chicken cubes.
I never made pesto before but chef Sari did a great job of demonstrating to us a practical way of creating this Italian staple sauce. I love pesto but always have it on handy by buying commercially prepared pesto sauce or dip in a jar which is quite expensive. I only get to taste pesto pastas in restaurants and never have any idea on how to make it at home. Now, I am a pro- thanks to Knorr!

Fun time at the Knorr Kitchenhood prepared buffet table for us participants. All yummy dishes!

A proud holder of my Knorr Kitchenhood Clinic certificate which is more rewarding than the dishes we get to try here. Truly happy to take part in this culinary event.

It was a busy and fun day that I will never forget. Knorr truly made my life easier by making my dishes even more better without any effort. Thanks Knorr and Uniliver Philippines. Looking forward to the next Knorr event soon!

Transforming Lives: The Impact of SM Group's KSK Program on Filipino Farmers

  Farming futures Jayson and Juanito proudly showcase a selection of produce at the SM City Clark’s Weekend Market. While modern agricultural techniques boost yields for some, there remains a number of Filipino farmers who struggle to keep pace. These experienced hands find themselves falling behind in a market demanding higher production, clinging to familiar yet often inefficient methods passed down through generations. One farmer from Pampanga, Jayson Garcia, sought to disrupt this prevailing narrative in his family. He knew that he had to chart a new course forward for his farm and innovate to remain competitive within the rapidly evolving landscape of modern agriculture. “Noon, mahirap ang magtanim,” he recalled their life before joining SM Foundation’s Kabalikat sa Kabuhayan. “Para bang tsambahan, basta pag itinanim mo ‘yan, hintayin mo na lang mamunga. Mas mahirap pa lalo kapag nagkaroon ng kalamidad,” he added.  SM Foundation’s training program focused on high-value crop cultiv

A 15-Minute Tropical City in Pasay

  All within 15 minutes: Urban planning concept city to rise in Pasay For the modern urban dweller, 15 minutes is a lot of time.  A lot of productive things can be done – a high-intensity, interval training (HITT) workout or run a 1.5-kilometer route, clearing your emails, meditating, catching up on the news, or preparing a quick smoothie – all within 15 minutes.  But for the Metro Manila commuter, 15 minutes is barely enough to get from point A to point B. During rush hour, it is most likely that within this time, you still haven’t moved an inch.   Ever heard of the 15-minute city? It’s a modern urban planning concept that puts people and the planet first. The term was coined by Paris-based urbanist and Sorbonne University professor Carlos Moreno wherein he said that the ideal neighborhood or city is built in such a way where work, food, housing, education and cultural activities can be easily accessed within 15 minutes, whether by foot or by using a bike.  An artist’s render of a 15-

Venue Infrastructure Challenges Concert Experience in the Philippines

Countries with better, bigger, and more competitive concert venues have reaped economic benefits, especially with the massive and significant influence of popular international acts like pop superstar Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour and Coldplay’s World Tour in consumer behavior and spending.  Driving tens of thousands of ‘Swifties’ and concert enthusiasts, the success of these concerts was an economic stimulus for countries worldwide, including Southeast Asian countries such as Singapore and Japan.  Filipino fans alike had to spend big and travel miles to watch the exclusive performance of superstar Swift in Singapore’s National Stadium while others went to Japan’s Tokyo Dome and Sydney’s Accor Stadium in Australia. The massive concert gigs boosted the respective country’s economies, benefitting entertainment, hospitality, retail, and transport industries significantly. While Singapore’s strategy for a Southeast Asia exclusive Swift performance piqued interest and likewise piqued its neighbo
