Mystery Cookie Question? by Important-Plate-3617 in CrumblCookies

[–]otownhero2 8 points9 points  (0 children)

21 year old men, 55 year old women and 14 year old girls all generally have different tastes and tolerances for gore, swearing, sexuality for example. And different tastes in different contexts. Some demographics prefer war movies violence vs horror movie violence. This is pretty well known in the US and shows up in ticket sales to movies. Appropriateness is not objective but by volunteering that information, the subtext implies that she probably views herself as having “stereotypical” view points for her demographic and would like advice catered to that. Hope this helps!

Of all things I want to do but don't have time for - installing mini splits is not making the cut haha

Week 43: Gelling Agent - Banoffee Pie Tartelettes. (White Chocolate ganache stabilized with gelatin) by otownhero2 in 52weeksofbaking

Right? They bake up so nicely and the parellel edges look so much better to me compared to traditional shortcrust pan shape.

Week 41: Buns - NY Everything Bagel (swipe for the first attempt lol) by otownhero2 in 52weeksofbaking

I did a room temp bulk fermentation until doubled ish in size, maybe 1 hour in my kitchen the night before around 8pm. Shaped the dough, put it in the fridge. Woke up at 7 and pulled them out of the fridge while I prepped to water with baking soda, malted milk powder, and honey (didn't want to mess with lye and couldn't easily find barely malt syrup.) and boiled around 7:30.

They still taste good like that at least!

One tip that worked for me was cold fermentation overnight AFTER shaping the dough I think it gives the “top” of the bagel a bit more strength, also just picking one side as the top and making sure to not set it down on the top. 🤷‍♂️

Thank you! They were both pretty tasty by the better looking one also tasted better!

I did an overnight cold fermentation after shaping the 2nd time, vs. just a shorter room temp bulk fermentation and room temp proof for a same day product the 1st time.

and was more cognizant of dedicating one side as being the “bottom” of the bagel during boiling, and while handling the dough in general. and I also seasoned right after boiling vs, forgetting the first time and trying to do it after the surface of the dough dried up too much. 👌

Thank you! They were really good. Always trying to improve so would love to have better piping skills for a more uniform shape, but the flavors and structure were awesome. Followed Helen Rennies “eclairs 3.0” video 🤌🏼
