Fourth of July cooking -- first break
Jul. 4th, 2011 09:47 amSo, the pink peppercorn meringues are finished -- they came out unexpectedly huge, and I will probably give many of them away.
The orange vanilla caramel cremes are finished, but I think I went past caramel into 'butterscotch hard candy', so the bottoms have a crust like a creme brulee. Ooops.
The strawberry-hibiscius ice cream is in the freezer setting up, and it tastedfabulous.
The white bean dip is half done -- the spices, oil and lemon juice are the only thing that needs to be added. The chard for the falefel is cooling now, after being blanched.
The meat is thawed, so after the parade, I'll get that started.
