Using up extra whipped cream




Jelly Roll is something that I have been thinking of making for a while. I have  a rickety cookie sheet which formed  a cake, thick on one side and thin on another. But the cake itself is way thinner. It also had huge pockets of  gas filled up. Reminds me of the cake mass where the assistant reverses the ratio of baking soda and flour. But once cooled and wrapped in towel (I used the paper towel, which seemed to work fine), the cake was dandy .
I did end up doing the assistnat's blooper with putting 1 cup butter instead of 1/2 cup butter while making cream puffs. if not for this exercise I wouldnt realise my error.
In the jelly roll, I used
Kissan jam and whipped cream. 
We always pass by the costco frozen aisle, look at the cream puffs. But that jumbo box is one too many cream puffs.
Its not everyday that we make cream puffs, so I made some eclairs too to go with the whipped cream filling.
You dont find the whipped cream in the picture as it needs to be had when eaten.

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
