MasterChef Live Top 10 picks

This year’s MasterChef Live event promises to be an even bigger cooking extravaganza. Here are our top 10 picks for the event!

1. Melbourne’s most awarded chef Jacques Reymond is appearing in the De Dietrich cookery section – join him to learn how to do your very own crispy-skinned spatchcock with avocado and quinoa; just the thing for all your summer entertaining.
2. One for Heston Blumenthal fans – dabble in a little molecular gastronomy with Redspoon www.redspooncompany.com, provider of amazing molecularly gastronomic tools, hydrocolloids, presentation pieces, books and a whole lot more.
3. One for the brave at heart – take up the Creativity Challenge with master Patissier Vincent Gadan – take the first step towards becoming a pastry chef yourself by creating your own gourmet cake under pressure – and you get to take it home.
4. Join the HOW TO sessions, and sit around a communal table with 20 others as sushi maestro Shaun Presland of Sake Restaurant explains how to slice exquisite sashimi and blow-torch tuna tataki, on stage.
5. Love Vietnamese food, and Luke Nguyen’s TV adventures? Let Luke take you through the stages of how to pick a great fish sauce in the HOW TO sesssions .
6. Another HOW TO session – watch Matt Kemp of Montpellier Public House as he takes an entire pig’s head (yes, an entire pig’s head) and prepares it for a feast. Talk about nose to tail.
7. Fusion king Dan Hong teaches you to create prawn toast with yuzu mayonnaise at home – you’re going to love this one.
8. Firey Chef Miguel Maestre will be taking on a Mystery Box Challenge and creating his famous Churros, better known as melt-in-your-mouth Spanish Donuts!
9. Who doesn’t love a cupcake? Pick up gorgeous designer partyware from Paper Eskimo, play with their pretty-as plates, cups, banners, balloons and the divine, must have hand-made cupcake cases in person. It’s party time gone chic.
10. Check out Lirah’s range of beautiful Australian vinegars – learn how a simple vinegar can make such a difference to the simplest salad. And don’t miss their acclaimed verjus – how to add the magic of exquisite freshness of unfermented grape juice to your cooking.
