Discover here Alan Orreal's dream for the past seven years for Disney Shangai

THE DREAM OF ALAN ORREAL FROM DISNEY SHANGHAI & WORLDCHEFS

Alan Orreal's growing dream for the past seven
years to create a complete scholastic and practical training program in a
working operational kitchen environment that delivers measurable accountable
outcomes and delivers a globally recognized certification. Opening a resort of
this size in mainland China was always going to come with its own special set
of challenges not the least of which was going to be the standard of Culinary
training available. We recognized early on that we were going to need help so
we turned to WorldChefs and asked them how we can develop our training program
further to meet global standards and to be able to award our cast a globally
recognized certification? Needless to say WorldChefs were there to review our
programs and offered us practical advice on how we could improve our program
even further.

The Culinary is the Heart of the House at Shanghai
Disney Resort. With over 1003 cast members strong receiving food, managing the
massive inventory and logistics, preparing and producing meals for over 13
million guests annually, one can glean from this staggering statistic alone
that training is extremely important. 


Alan Orreal-Liang is the Culinary Director for the
entire white coat brigade at Shanghai Disney Resort and we spoke to him
concerning training for his Cooks and asked him about the partnership with
WorldChefs and the Global Culinary Certification program.


This partnership between Shanghai
Disney Resort and WorldChefs is a first in mainland China for any company and
will enable our Culinary cast for the first time to be awarded a Globally
Recognized Certification that will open doors for them throughout their
careers. It’s terribly humbling to have reached this point and to realize the
importance of what we have achieved together and what it will mean for all the
cooks to come through these kitchens for all the years to come. I am very
grateful to Worldchefs for their invaluable advice and vision, our incredible
talented team of Chefs who helped me drive this program forward and for
delivering it, our Disney partners who support us daily, my admin team for the
hundreds of hours of planning and work and the Disney leadership for allowing
us to Dream!


Walt Disney said,” All
our dreams can come true, if we have the courage to pursue them.” 
It is in this spirit that Shanghai Disney Resort has
set forth the foundation for our Culinary Training program. It is our vision
that our cast members will receive world class training opportunities to
prepare them well for a work environment that relentlessly pursues excellence
and innovation. Continuous sustained drive for creativity in menu creation
requires that our cast have solid foundational culinary skillsets and more to
deliver the highest quality dishes and products to our guests every day. With
this front of mind our extensive full time programs that are both classroom and
hands on delivered curriculum to levels within the Culinary from Interns,
Kitchen Assistants, Commis levels and up to Chef De Partie levels


“Global Certification is important
not just for our company it’s important for us all as I believe we must all
work to stem the tide of declining culinary skillsets worldwide if we are to
have a sustainable industry and maintain cross-cultural culinary standards.”

Alan Orreal-Liang


‘Worldchefs are delighted to be
working with Shanghai Disney on our global culinary certification. We are
particularly grateful to Chef Alan Orreal and his team for their vision and
commitment to developing this unique partnership. Commis Chef and Chef de
Partie trainees at the Shanghai Disney resort will now receive international recognition
from Worldchefs, through our global culinary certification, for the continuous
professional development opportunties which are offered as part of the Disney culinary
programme. We have been impressed by the quality of the training delivered at
the resort and hope that many companies around the world will follow the
example set by Disney for the development of new talent the industry
desperately needs. We are very excited about this special relationship which
marks a key milestone in shaping the future of the culinary profession.’

Dilmah's MJF Centre's Empower Culinary Hospitality & Inspirational School Attains Worldchefs Certification

Dilmah’s Empower Culinary Hospitality and Inspirational School’s
culinary course was recognized and certified by Worldchefs in January 2017. An
initiative by Dilmah’s Merrill J. Fernando Charitable Foundation (MJFCF), its
mission was born from its founder’s belief that the organization has a part to
play in giving back to the underprivileged and less fortunate in the
community. 

 

The school aims to empower disadvantaged youths with valuable,
lifelong skills in hospitality and the culinary arts, and provide them with the
opportunity to seek employment in the related industry on a local and
international level. The school features a state of the art Culinary Training
Unit that contains the latest cooking technology and culinary equipment,
designed to give its students a holistic training course. The school’s
curriculum spans a period of three and a half months and involves giving
students basic and advanced kitchen courses that cover a range of topics, from
culinary theory, knife skills, health and nutrition to the business aspects of
running a restaurant.

 

The lessons are facilitated by MJFCF’s own training instructions and
WACS certified chefs from around the world, and the school frequently plays
host to global culinary experts and celebrity chefs.

 

Being the only culinary institution in Sri Lanka to receive the Worldchefs
certification, Dilmah’s Empower Culinary Hospitality and Inspirational School
is now a globally recognised culinary institute that provides excellence in
education.

 

 

 

About Dilmah

Merrill J. Fernando dedicated his life to tea when in the 1950s,
he saw the concentration of ownership in the tea industry in the hands of a few
large corporations. This was leading to the commoditisation of tea. He decided
that in the interest of tea drinkers around the world, and the crop that his
country produced with so much care and artistry, he would fight this process of
commoditisation.

It took him nearly four decades and in 1988 he launched his own
brand – Dilmah. Dilmah was the first producer owned tea brand, and offered tea
‘picked, perfected and packed’ at origin. Unlike the multi-origin blends that
monopolised supermarket shelves, Dilmah brought tea that is freshly packed at
source and therefore rich in flavour and natural goodness.

Dilmah is unique; a brand that is founded on a passionate
commitment to quality and authenticity in tea, it is also a part of a
philosophy that goes beyond commerce in seeing business as a matter of human
service. This is what makes Dilmah the first ethically produced tea. In 2005,
Merrill and his sons Dilhan and Malik, pledged to follow the principles
dictated by the 12 Principles of Dilmah in every aspect of their business and
in the conduct of their workers, staff and management.

Today is International Women's Day!

Let us share our magic with
you today by celebrating together the International Women’s Day!

Jessi, Worldchefs Brand Ambassador, decided to share with you a great recipe
of Julia Child – the famous woman who brought French cuisine to USA!

 

Story: International Women’s Day is celebrated on
March 8 every year and commemorates the movement for women's rights. It celebrates
ordinary women who have played an extraordinary role in the history and
emphasizes the impact they have on changing how today’s World looks like.

 

Recipe (serves 4) – Julia’s Favorite Roast Chicken

Preparation:  2h 15 min

Ingredients:

  • 2 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1/3 cup finely diced carrots
  • 1/3 cup finely diced onion
  • 1/3 cup finely diced celery
  • 1 teaspoon thyme, savory or mixed herbs, or 2 fresh
    thyme or savory sprigs
  • One 3 1/2- to 4-pound chicken
  • Salt
  • Freshly ground pepper
  • Parsley stems
  • Celery leaves
  • Six 1/8-inch-thick lemon slices
  • 1/2 cup sliced onion
  • 1/2 cup sliced carrots
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Method:

Step
1 – 
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Melt 1
tablespoon of the butter in a skillet. Add the diced carrots, onion and celery
and cook over moderate heat until softened. Stir in the herbs.


Step
2 – 
Wash the chicken rapidly inside and out
with hot water and pat thoroughly dry. For easier carving, cut out and discard
the wishbone. Pull the neck skin up over the breast and secure it to the back
with a toothpick. Salt and pepper the cavity and spoon in the cooked
vegetables, a handful of parsley stems and celery leaves and the lemon slices.
Massage the chicken all over with 1 tablespoon of the butter, then truss it.
Alternatively, tie the ends of the drumsticks together and tuck the wings under
the body.


Step
3 – 
Choose a flameproof roasting pan that is
about 1 inch larger than the chicken. Salt the chicken all over and set it
breast up on a rack in the pan. (Thoroughly wash all surfaces and utensils that
have been in contact with the raw chicken.)


Step
4 – 
Roast the chicken in the oven for about 1
hour and 15 minutes, as follows: 
At 15 minutes Brush the chicken with the
remaining 1/2 tablespoon of butter. Scatter the sliced onion and carrot all
around. Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees. 
At 45 minutes Brush the lemon juice over
the chicken. If necessary, add 1/2 cup of water to the vegetables to prevent
burning. 
At 60 minutes Baste with the pan juices.
Test for doneness: The drumsticks should move easily in their sockets; their
flesh should feel somewhat soft. If not, continue roasting, basting and testing
every 7 to 8 minutes, until an instant-read thermometer registers 165 degrees.


Step
5 – 
Spear the chicken through the shoulders;
lift to drain; if the last of the juices run clear yellow, the chicken is done.
Let rest on a carving board for 15 minutes; discard the string.


Step
6 – 
Spoon all
but 1 tablespoon of fat from the juices in the pan. Add the stock and boil
until lightly syrupy, 5 minutes. Strain; you will have just enough to bathe
each serving with a fragrant spoonful.

Worldchefs Welcomes HUG On Board As Global Partner

Worldchefs
Welcomes HUG On Board As Global Partner

 

 DATE @ “d MMMM yyyy” 9 March 2018 – Worldchefs is pleased to announce a new partnership with Switzerland-based
food service giant, HUG, who will be recognized as a Global Partner of
Worldchefs, with exclusivity in the “prêt-à-garner” market.

 

Since 1877, Swiss family-owned HUG has lived by these values –
sincere, entrepreneurial and conscientious. The company was founded by Josef
Hug-Meyer, who created the
recipe for the iconic Swiss bread –
Zwieback and since then, the company has been
managed by generations after. Through hard work and dedication, they have added
other biscuits and brands to form a major conglomerate  that is synonymous with quality products in
the food industry.

 

“We’re excited to have HUG on-board as a global partner for
Worldchefs. For years, they have created quality products  and this reputation means  this is naturally a trusted brand for chefs
to work with,” said Thomas Gugler, Worldchefs President.

 

“HUG
have been a valuable partner to Worldchefs over the past years and we are
particularly proud to continue our close collaboration in the future.” Said
Ragnar FRIDRIKSSON, Managing Director

 

 

About HUG

The company history of HUG started over 140
years ago in a bakery in Lucerne. Josef Hug-Meyer laid the foundation stone for
success in 1877, with the discovery of the zwieback or rusk. Since then
countless other biscuits such as Läckerli, Willisauer-Ringli, DAR-VIDA
Crackers, biscuits for restaurants and hospitality, frozen snacks and Bricelets
have been added, partly by company take-overs. The takeover of Wernli AG from
Trimbach in 2008 enabled optimum expansion of the range to include biscuits
containing chocolate. Choco Petit Beurre, Japonais and Jura Wafers were
invented at Wernli.

HUG AG is a Swiss family company through and
through: with its three locations Malters, Willisau and Trimbach it is at home
in the heart of Switzerland and is now managed in the fourth generation by
Andreas and Werner Hug.

The recipe for the quality and good taste of
our products is in the hands of the people who work with them. True to our
motto:

Sincere, entrepreneurial and conscientious.
