Obsession
There were a few little caramels left over from yesterday's Turtle Cake.
They were fucking, FUCKING good.
I have a new obsession.
I could put caramel on EVERYTHING, including my doorknobs, in the bottom of all my glasses, inside all christmas cards, like little mints on the pillows here at the clinic, instead of toilet paper (hmm maybe not that one), wrapped around marshmallows, nuts, kholrabi, curds.
Caramel. I would like to replace my blood with caramel. It has natural clotting agents. It is a great source of energy. It even sounds nicer than blood. caramel. blood. caramel. blood.
Caramel wins, hands down.

ReplyDeleteI am more than happy to point you in the direction of dear RLB. She is a goddess!
About your question...I am lazy at heart and hate math, so I would make the whole filling and just use the extra to pour over my french vanilla ice cream while I waited for the tart to cook. Or I'd make a little free formed tartlette to eat right out of the oven with said ice cream.
You COULD ask RLB herself, have you checked out her blog yet? Anyone can submit their question about baking. I've a link to her site, so's you can get there right now.
How's that foccacia? I also have her pie and pastry bible, but not the bread one. She is writing a new cake book with a picture for EVERY cake. The love for her just continues!
My cookies. I made a mention about them in the next post. They came out kind of okay. Great shortbready texture, but not a whole lot of flavor. Oh well. I'll still eat them. Thanks for asking.
