Popovers



Tired from the day, I wanted to make a bread quickly. I picked Breads and Sweetrolls cookbook for this purpose. Its a thin book but it is all business. This is the firstbook where I saw a simplified sketch of a picture of different kind of breads, with only outline and numbers within, followed by a legend.
I didnt believe the popover recipe that it requires only eggs, flour, milk and salt.
I heard of them from a lady who works at the apartment office. Few minutes into the oven, they rose. The recipe called for 400F for 50 min. I was skeptical about it. The inside seems not so well done.

since this is a harmless set of things to work with, I can experiment with muffin pans and starting with a higher temperature and reducing it over the next half to see if the inside cooks well.
Fun experiment with no guilt involved.

And meringue making is merry. Flour is used in making the custard.  all purpose flour plays the corn starch  role of thickening the custard. I used  Parle G  instead of vanilla wafers.
