Paskong Pinoy is a whirlwind of tradition and get-togethers, which can be a good deal of challenge even for the most dedicated hosts. The quest to curate the perfect holiday experience, from a sumptuous feast to a sparkling home, can often leave them feeling overwhelmed. So this year, the key is to achieve convenience and efficiency for a seamless celebration.
Beko, from the no. 1 large home appliance company from Europe, understands the dilemma of Filipino homes, especially at the most wonderful and busiest time of the year. To help homemakers survive the holiday hosting season, here are some simple hacks to try out:
The Dilemma: “I want to buy ahead, but how can I retain the freshness of my ingredients?”
You bought the freshest cut of meat and produce ahead, only to find it losing its quality right just when you need it. Holidays are often pictured with a wide array of tasty dishes, but how do you keep your ingredients in their best state possible?
The Solution: Maximize freshness right from your fridge
Treat your ingredients like they are the most precious investments. With Beko’s RDNT401E50VZHFSGB 13.2 cu. Ft. refrigerator, you’re not just keeping food, you are preserving its freshness for as long as possible.
The HarvestFresh feature mimics the natural 24-hour sun-cycle right inside the crisper, working overtime to preserve vitamins for longer, while the NutriFreeze soft freezing technology keeps the meat at the ideal temperature of -3°C without breaking the cell structure inside the food, making defrosting or thawing a yesterday’s scenario. Plus, its ProSmart Inverter compressor gives powerful, quiet, and cost-efficient cooling performance.
The Dilemma: “There’s a lot of food to prepare – is there a way to make it faster?”
The star of the show is your homemade bibingka or signature holiday roast, but there are a lot of other side dishes and meals that need to be made from the noche buena menu. Juggling multiple dishes means your kitchen tools need to be as efficient as possible to prevent the holiday highlights from becoming a dreaded holiday stress.
The Solution: Get a cooking range that allows you to multitask
Elevate your cooking game like a pro with the Beko FSM63320TXDL freestanding Cooker. It has different zones that let you cook several meals and even bake desserts at once. Its oven has a SteamAid feature that injects steam into the oven cavity, ensuring your pastries come out with a beautiful crust on the outside and perfectly soft on the inside. On the hob, its high-efficiency gas burners cook food more quickly and use less gas than standard burners. Keep the kitchen hazards at bay, as this range also has a Gas Safety feature that automatically shuts off the supply if a flame goes out.
The Dilemma: “Holidays are fun, but the mountain load of laundry stresses me out!”
Festive times call for festive outfits, but the constant stream of OOTDs may cause the laundry to pile up. With the amount of time needed to attend to guests and the household chores, spending hours doing laundry may be the last thing a host wants to do amid the holidays.
The Solution: A laundry companion that gives powerful cleaning
Reclaim your time with the Beko WCV10746M 10kg washer. It features a SteamCure technology that gets rid of stains before the wash cycle, softening dirt and reducing wrinkles so you can say goodbye to endless ironing. The StainExpert Programme is also designed to easily clean out different types of stains, even the tough ones, such as coffee, wine, and chocolate.
Need a quick outfit change? The Xpress Super Short 14 Min Programme is perfect for those on the go and can clean up to 2 kg of laundry fresh in a flash.
The Dilemma: “I feel tired after hosting parties, but I still need to deal with dishwashing.”
You’ve made the perfect meal, but the aftermath of a kitchen sink piled high with pots and pans can be daunting. While the labor of love is always appreciated, there is no harm in looking for an option to make the chores more convenient, especially for the busy host.
The Solution: Spotless clean in a flash
Let your meals be the life of the party, and let the Beko BDFN26523XQ dishwasher handle the rest. With 15-place settings, this machine brings efficient and hygienic cleaning. The Fast+ feature speeds up the washing cycle by up to three times with optimum performance, while the Easy Fold Plate Support allows for better use of the dishwasher space, accommodating even the large pans for faster cleaning time and more energy spent to recover or cherish more moments with the family.
