Chef’s Home Cooking Secrets with Samsung Chef Collection

A naturally gifted artist can create masterpieces, despite using primitive tools. For the many who will never receive the accolades of a Michelin-starred chef, the expertly designed Samsung Chef Collection makes feeling like one a little bit easier.

Collaborating with chefs who are among the best in the world gave Samsung insights into practical ways to improve kitchen appliances. The result is the four-piece premium kitchen appliance set, which includes the four-door refrigerator with Precise Chef Cooling^TM, the Flex Duo^TM oven range, the over-the-counter microwave-hood and the WaterWall^TM dishwasher.

Chef Kostow believes the best dishes come from the freshest ingredients. The Chef Collection refrigerator has Precise Chef Cooling^TM for maximum freshness with minimal temperature fluctuation within the range of 0.9 degrees Fahrenheit (or 0.5 degrees Celsius). It includes two different sections that cool at different temperatures for the crispest produce and the juiciest meats, fish and poultry. Also included is a 3-in-1 chef pan that marinates, cooks and cleans.

The Recipe

Ingredients:

Steamed Omelet:

Start with eggs, whole milk and white soy sauce in a large bowl. Add milk powder. This will thicken the egg mix, giving a nice density to the steamed omelet. Whisk until all of the milk powder is dissolved. Using a pan lined with parchment paper, pour in the eggs. Put that pan inside a larger pan of simmering water. This will keep your omelet from cooking too fast or hard, allowing it to set like a light custard. Using your Chef Collection oven, bake for 20 min at 325F.

Beurre Monte with Roe Sauce:

A beurre monte is a French preparation of sauce made from melted butter. First, on your Chef Collection range top, reduce white wine and cream together, then add butter. Next add your trout roe, or caviar. Delicately fold everything together, being careful not to break the fish eggs. After finishing the sauce, use a pan to sauté the wild onions in oil.

Plating:

Slice the steamed omelet and add 4-5 slices per plate. Use a spoon to add beurre monte. Finally, garnish with wild onion.
