It’s been a little while since I’ve done an update on what’s been happening with me and Olive and Ruby so I think it's time for a little update. I have so many plans, hopes and dreams and not a lot of patience so I've set up little milestones to achieve to help me realize that I am moving forward.
I make bread every week. We haven't bought bread in a very long time, so I was super excited to do this class to pick up some tips and techniques which hopefully can help improve my bread making skills.
A funny thing happened in class today. I discovered that know how to make Choux pastry, but I didn’t know it was Choux pastry. When chef started to demo the recipe I quickly realized that the base of this infamous Choux pastry was the same base that we Trini’s use for an hor d'oeuver called "Puffs". Don’t ask me why we call it that but we just do.
I like anything au gratin. I mean really put your hand up if you agree that cheese makes everything better. I like this recipe because you’ve got all the flavour without the guilt of the fat and calories.
Oops! I was so busy eating these I didn't have time to take any pictures and I gave away most of them before I realized that I hadn't taken any pics of them. I was lucky enough to find one picture that I managed to take just as I was giving the last batch away.
I make every single recipe that I post on this site, but I’m wondering if I’m amongst the few that do. Over the last couple of months, I’ve tried several recipes posted by a couple of bloggers, and sometimes the recipes, and pictures of the output don’t match. So it got me wondering how many bloggers actually make the recipes that they post?
