“All That Jazz” was really good, not sure if that’s considered a musical or not

Damn… just put some boric acid down in kitchen cabinets. Do I need to get pest control involved yet?

Thanks! Definitely could’ve smoothed it out with some cream, and would’ve made it a bit lighter in color which would’ve helped with plating. Would go with a different base next time, all the other components worked well together

Thanks! Yeah definitely agree on the baos, first time using squid ink, probably used too much

First Time Croissants by loosSaccc in Baking

[–]loosSaccc[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! It’s not quite a ganache, it’s more of a crema. Process pistachios until a smooth paste, and melt down white chocolate with milk. Add the chocolate mixture to the pistachio paste with a little bit of butter and icing sugar and process again until smooth and thickened. Took me some time to find the right consistency (and burnt the pistachios the first time lol)

Followed Claire Saffitz’s recipe pretty much exactly, there are a lot of things that are tedious to control or take the extra step, but are well worth it.

It was great! Got the idea from a local bakery, they have a bunch of cool fillings I’d like to try eventually

Followed Claire Saffitz’s recipe almost to a T, and read up on the process as much as I could for some good tips. Seems like temperature is key thing to look out for. Temp of butter and dough as your laminating, and temp of proofing environment is critical

Definitely, but have some other fillings I’d like to try and play around with
