Santa sliding on a triangle of a cake





Carol Deacon

The book has many pictures with creative ideas both simple and complex. A simple pipe cleaner become the antlers on a candy cane. The complex ones are pared o simple ones in subsequent pictures. This act of breaking down a whole decoration into its parts is sure to get your creative juices flowing to mold the fondant in a way to customise and please whoever you want to decorate the cake for. The Chinese Dragon cake, summer Holiday Flowers cake (with its 3/4 standing cake), a hot dog, Thanksgiving Turkey Cake (with a story of a turkey crushing the cake built onto the cake).
Edible paper. I enjoyed it as a kid. some papercutting to make a snowflake. wow.
Its a magical world that the author Carol Deacon presents to us. Whats even better is we can make it ours.

Egg Malai Masala

  Egg Malai Masala  Its fun when things turn out as they should. I pureed the onions and then cooked them well. I added the milk for the egg Malai Masala and made chicken curry with other half of the onion base. I used kasoori methi in both. Many times I have felt the onions grainy, but this time I got it right. Patience.

Cuban Bread

So you should already know the sweet and breadrolls book if you have already read of the popovers. I have planned on making bread for a long time. A detour of popovers and finally I'm aqui. From the same book, I tried this Cuban bread and enjoyed making the slits in the bread. Like a surgeon. I still have to get the proofing right. The actual recipe reading takes place in real time. I was reading about the bread on the web and when I came across the lines about how it is different from a French bread in that it is left to rise after shaping the loaf, I was worried that my Cuban bread would lose its nationality. Turns out that I hadnt progressed that far into the recipe. The Best American travel writing 2008 Khubz al arabi
