as per request for toffee, and feeling like I needed to redeem myself for the brownie incident (I realize I can't expect everything to be perfect the first time). I decided to brown the butter a bit before adding the rest of the ingredients in attempt to give the toffee a bit of a deeper flavor since I often find toffee to be lacking flavor if not accompanied by chocolate. According to my official taster (alex), it was a successful venture!
I'm finding myself lusting over more kitchen appliances than say, shoes. The other day while roaming Williams Sonoma, I found a copper kitchen aid. It was beautiful, fully equipped with a height adjuster. Needless to say, I love it. I don't however, love the price tag ($400)! Or pretty much anything by le cruset...I'm really excited to get into a professional kitchen and discover a whole new set of fun gadgets to play with. flame torch? agreed.Things on my immediate to try list: Sourdough and a truffle plate.
Part of me wants to stop reading, looking at and drooling over your adventures, the other part of me is dying to see what the next adventure looks like! In case you don't realize, it is unintentionally unfriendly torture not to be able to taste any of these creations!! Alex is so lucky! :-)
ReplyDeleteHi Jessica, Michael here!! I just came home from work to find the zenith of candy lusciousness!! Thank you so much for the yummy toffee, SO professionally wrapped. The salt was the perfect complement to the sweetness and the texture so smooth and NOT grainy. A home-run, in my opinion. And the card was lovely too!
