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.

Slices and Stallions

While there are books that are all about just one ingredient like Flavored oils and vinegars there are others that are about a gamut of things. Everything Pizza cookbook has recipes for all the kinds of pizza that there can be with different crusts, sauces, cheeses, toppings. Smoked Salmon Pizza, Polenta Pizza. Cooking for engineers Tasso Ham . When I read that Tasso is also the name of an Italian poet, I wanted to point to his work too. I looked for it but found it in prehistoric language. It so happens that I am reading poems about horses and recognised Tasso's name beneath his poem translated. Second paragraph has life infused in it with equine motions. Another poem that I like in this collection is 'New Foal' by Ted Hughes.

Banana pudding

I went over the roasted banana pudding recipe from yesterday and found it too consuming (shopping time, dishes, baking time), I finally decided on  caramelized banana pudding . 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.
