Ingram85 Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Meath, I need advice on getting perfectly crumbly and hard shortbread as the way I'm doing it leaves it hard-ish on the outside with an ever so slightly flaky/chewy centre. Its annoying me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meath_Villan Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 you could have too much butter or sugar .. You could work the dough more than it should be do you just use butter,sugar,flour ....or do you add a bit of corn flour.. Is your oven calibrated ?....it happens to me at home the oven in work when it says 180 the whole oven is 180 but the oven at home could be 160 or 170 when set at 180 and the middle of the oven could be the coldest part etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leemond2008 Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 A question for the 'professional cheffy people' of the forum What is your all time favorite food? Do you ever just get home and cook yourself something extremely simple like cheese on toast, or have frozen meals? I am sure that I read someone like Gordon Ramsey states that there favorite food is a simple bacon sandwich and that when they get home the last thing they want to do is mess about in their kitchen at home cooking more food.

Meath_Villan Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 (edited) I was out and about yesterday and had a butternut squash & coconut soup. I shall be looking for recipes and making my own.

Roast all the veg with honey season after blending and add coconut milk at the end Edited November 4, 2013 by Meath_Villan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ingram85 Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 That sounds bloody lovely. As an uninspired pescetarian soups are a saviour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meath_Villan Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 Do the same with the pumpkin roast with a bit of honey I would also add a few sw3et potatos to it (roast them in the oven in their own skin) like a baked spud peel of the skin when cooked add to soup and blend ......if you plan way ahead dry out the pumpkin seeds and use as a crunchy garnish for the soup or if your making soda bread just chop them up and throw it in the mix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
