So apparently I'm a perfectionist when it comes to cooking and drawing! It has to come out right and perfectly the first time I make it.
I fell in love with the cheesecake from the Bagels&Beans, which is a lemon cheesecake with 'bastogne' biscuits for the bottom. *_* I found the recipe on the B&B website, so decided I should make it for an upcoming picknick. However, I hadn't enough time, which resulted in a fluid warm cheesecake. It tasted good though!
Yesterday, again with not enough time, I wanted to try out a tiramisu for the first time. After one hour in the fridge, it was still fluid. What is wrong with me?! I keep making fluid deserts that aren't supposed to be fluid! So I had to put the tiramisu in the fridge for about 24hrs. Now, it's not that fluid anymore, but it tastes like whipped cream. JUST whipped cream. That's not how it's supposed to taste! Argh..
So yeah, I'm angry that things don't work the first time, but maybe it's a little lesson for me to learn, besides not trying to be perfect: take your damned time! If you have 2 hours, and the pie will take 2 hours, it can still run late! Take your time to bake something nice, and good-tasting. You may need to extend baking times, or fridge times... you might even have forgotten to buy an ingredient.
Most things aren't perfect and especially not the first time, and that's ok. :) The first time I made tiramisu it was very fluid as well (it tasted ok though, coffee~).
BeantwoordenVerwijderenYeeah! I just got feedback from some people, and they liked it :D! It really tasted like tiramisu they said :).
BeantwoordenVerwijderenI wonder how I can make it less fluid. Maybe I whipped the egg white too little..
