Good news for home cooks out there! As an aspiring or recreational chef stuck at home, you can recreate fine-dining in the kitchen as renowned chefs Sau Del Rosario and Rob Pengson partner with Ajinomoto Philippines Corporation (APC) to share restaurant-style cooking through online recipe videos. The initiative is part of APC’s “How to Cook by COOKMUNITY®” campaign, featuring new and easy-to-follow tutorial videos weekly. Chef Sau and Chef Rob are among the first culinary masters to be featured in the video series.

“Ajinomoto teamed up with prominent local chefs to share mouth-watering but easy to make delicacies. With our Ajinomoto products making meals even more flavorful, this will leave everyone’s meals unforgettable and crave-worthy.” shares Roann Co, Ajinomoto Philippines Corporation Group (APC Group) General Manager of Marketing and Public Relations.
Behind these appetizing innovations are two of the country's esteemed chefs. Chef Rob is the founder and owner of Aleanza Institute of Arts. He has grabbed multiple prestigious awards in the culinary scene. Meanwhile, Chef Sau, a native of culinary capital Pampanga who now runs Café Fleur, is a passionate cook bringing in the Filipino-International cuisine concept which drew inspiration from his cooking ventures overseas.
Here are four delicious restaurant style but easy-to-cook recipes that home cooks and kitchen newbies can learn:

Eggplant Katsudon

With Chef Rob’s exploration in the kitchen, he introduces the Eggplant Katsudon, which is a good source of antioxidants that aid in keeping our immune system healthy. Instead of using pork, Chef Rob used eggplant that is seasoned with AJI-GINISA® Flavor Seasoning Mix to bring out its gisa taste and aroma. This dish is paired with a sauce that is made with vegetable broth, onion, sugar, and SARSAYA® Liquid Seasoning instead of soy sauce. To know how to whip this dish, click here to watch this tutorial video of Chef Rob.

Scallion & Shrimp Chow Mein

For Chef Rob’s second recipe, he developed Shrimp & Scallion Chow Mein, a protein-rich noodle dish packed with the flavors of shrimp--perfect for seafood lovers. It might look complicated with its variety of ingredients, but this recipe only has seven ingredients that can be easily bought in the supermarket. With three easy steps, parboil, sauté and season, using AJI-NO-MOTO® Umami Seasoning and SARSAYA® Oyster Sauce. This combination will surely enrich the flavor of this dish, balancing its sweet and salty taste while enhancing the natural flavors of the dish. Garnished with scallions or chopped onions, the stir-fried noodle is a perfect comfort food for everyone. Click here to learn how to cook this dish with Chef Rob.

Asian Style Chicken BBQ

Craving for a grilled and smoky dish? Try Chef Sau’s Asian-Style BBQ Chicken. With tender chicken thighs marinated with the SARSAYA® Oyster Sauce plus a wide variety of spices, this will truly awaken one’s taste buds for its aroma, as it gives a great balance of the sweet-salty-umami taste. Chef Sau’s recommendation is to baste the chicken at the latter half of cooking to avoid the marinade from burning.

Prawn Rebosado

Chef Sau’s second cuisine is the Prawn Rebosado, a Spanish-inspired Filipino dish which literally means ‘battered prawns.’ Although usually partnered with a sweet & sour sauce, the AJI-NO-MOTO® Umami Seasoning completes and enhances its spices, and goes extraordinary with Filipino’s ultimate staple, white rice. Prawns are actually rich in selenium which is an effective antioxidant to maintain healthy cells, and has high levels of nutrients good for the body.

“Amid these challenging times, we’d like to continue providing recipe ideas to inspire Filipinos in their kitchen exploration. With Chef Rob’s and Chef Sau’s recipes online, hope it will stir up and satisfy their appetites without the need to dine outside to please their cravings,” Co added.

GCash, the country's leading mobile wallet app, is working toward building a cashless ecosystem for the business process outsourcing (BPO) sector, considered the biggest private employer in the country, by introducing a suite of products and services to fit the needs of BPO companies and employees. The company has partnered with several top BPO companies which are now using GCash’s digital finance solutions, while promoting financial literacy among thousands of BPO employees.

In a webinar organized by GCash called, "GShift: Advancing Digital Financial Solutions for BPOs,” Martha Sazon, GCash president and chief executive officer, said, “Our purpose is to 'Make Filipinos' Everyday Lives Better.' To accomplish this, we provide safe and seamless solutions to various companies like BPOs, while striving to help even more BPOs through a cashless ecosystem and financial literacy.”

BPO companies, like Ibex Philippines Global, are reaping the benefits of their partnership with GCash. According to Potski Alvarez, Ibex Global Philippines' country manager, "One of the things that I was very happy with was how we were able to pay incentives, spiffs, and rewards to our employees in real time. Instead of having to go through payroll and wait 15 days, you get your money within the day, and that has been one of the more practical digital solutions of our partnership with GCash."

During the webinar, Kim Pineda, GCash assistant vice president and head of BPO enterprise, presented the suite of digital financial solutions and programs to support the BPOs' drive for digital innovation and achieve GCash's vision for financial inclusion for all Filipinos.

For disbursements, the GCash PowerPay+ allows the company to disburse incentives, allowances, reimbursements, cash advances, and salaries in real time, and with easy access through the app, anytime, anywhere. To further encourage a cashless ecosystem in the office, merchants within the BPO company can accept payments from employees using the app's QR code through GCash's Cashless Cafeteria Program for BPOs.

GCash also continues to champion financial literacy as it empowers BPO employees to take control of their money through the app's other services. Aside from the everyday transactions and payments such as buying load, paying bills, and sending money, BPO employees and other consumers can shop on GLife or grow their money through the app's financial services such as GSave, GInvest, GInsure, and GCredit.

During the virtual roundtable discussion, Rowena Belmonte, Teleperformance's administrative services manager, noted that partnering with GCash has not only kept her and her colleagues safe, but it has also allowed her to take advantage of the app's many useful features. "For me, personally, I don't have to go to the bank or payment centers and line up to pay for my utilities and other bills. I have also recently enjoyed GInvest and GSave, and of course, GCash's online shopping features!"

Likewise, for Dan Lester Guevarra, Concentrix Philippines' senior project manager, aside from using GCash for online shopping, he has also started investing through the app: "I've also recently discovered GInvest, which I really enjoy. I've invested some money there and I've gotten some profit out of it -- definitely better than just putting it in the bank and incur interests."

Joining GCash during the webinar were partners from the BPO industry including Ibex Global Philippines' country manager Potski Alvarez, Ibex Global Philippines' senior vice president for Business Development Eric Kaufman, and Concentrix Philippines' vice president for People Solutions, Hazel Bañas. GCash VP and Enterprise Head Luigi Reyes also graced the event.
