Friday Question: Tabasco

I scored these little 59ml bottles of Tabasco for free.  Never been a fan but now that I'm baking with vinegar, I thought I'd give them another go.

Which brings me to today's Friday Question: Who likes Tabasco?  What do you put it on?  Have you baked with it?  For me, I'm going with a spicy muffin or scone.  See how that goes.

Who Wants Cupcakes?

A new batch of Carrot Cupcakes are in the oven, the maple frosting is ready, and my dishes are done.  Now I'm just waiting for Frankenberry to get home with the pizza.

It's date night.

I just heard my first timer go off.  Gotta check the oven.  I'm back.  Just a bit more should do the trick.  The kitchen smells great, and the carrot cupcakes have homemade carrot juice.

Since I'm energized from the bake, I might as well go scrub the crappers and do laundry.  Even though I really want to do another bake.  But the crappers are a callin', so they win.

You boogerbutts have a great day and to those who asked in my last post, no, the dogs don't get the mistake bakes.  We eat them.  Eating is the best way to learn about food.  Not by cooking, but by eating.

Catch ya later and boogie boogie.

Baker's Report: Traybakes

The Apple Crumble Cake I made, didn't quite work.  There wasn't enough apple taste, and my test batch was too small.  So I switched pans and called it a traybake.  Needs a second draft but I'm headed in the right direction.  Plus, I came up with an idea for something else.

Sometimes, it's the mistakes that teach me the most.  Each day I think, what if I try it this way?  Would this ingredient work?  When I would ask Mamam (grandma), she's always said in her thick Hungarian accent, "Vee try.  If no good.  Vee try again."

She was a lot of fun to bake with.  Always up for a challenge, and to me, that's the fun of baking.

Meanwhile, no pictures today.  But if you're interested in baking your own traybake, click BBC GoodFood.  Where you'll find lots of fun treats.  Even better, it's all in metric, as all good bakes should be. 

Thanks for reading and boogie boogie.

Apple Crumble Cake is in THE OVEN ....

Now I wait.  Though I should be doing cleanup but I needed to sit down for a minute anyway, so I might as well write a quick post.  Only five minutes in the oven and already the kitchen smells like cinnamon and apples.

No idea if this bake will work or not.  I've never done this before but either way, I figure I'll learn something.

Meanwhile, check out my interactive True or False (one post back).  For me, it was true.

So what's in your oven?  Anyone else baking on this fine Saturday afternoon?  For us it's an Apple Crumble Cake and after that, wholemeal rolls to go with tonight's burgers on the grill.  I love that grill.  So much flippin' fun.

PS: Tim discovered Amazon Prime now has music, so it's been fun listening as I work in the lab.  That's all from me, you Boogersbutts have a great weekend and boogie boogie.

PS:  It's 4:04 and I didn't even plan it.  I rule.
