Local chef Eric Teo came up with these simple dishes using S-Pure antibiotic-free chicken
The coronavirus cases and clusters continue to rise, so the best thing we can do for ourselves and our family is to stay home as much as possible. How do you keep the pandemic anxiety at bay? Aside from tucking into delicious foods for takeaway and delivery, you can also keep yourself busy by cooking up a storm in the kitchen. And if there is anything we learned after binge-watching renowned Italian chef Massimo Bottura's cooking classes on Masterclass, it is to always be obsessed with ingredients.
When it comes to chicken, fresh is always the best. That said, it's recommended to buy chickens raised without antibiotics and growth hormones but rather a healthy feed packed with probiotics to ensure the meat is in its purest and tastiest form.
