#Raw Caster Sugar | Explore Tumblr posts and blogs

Soooo, I had an idea about the love potion maybe??? Like, it seems super OP and I figured that maybe it wasn't ACTUALLY a "fix-all-solution". Just hear me out for a second pls...

What if the love potion actually heightens someone's positive feelings for someone else? Since love is CLEARLY the strongest emotion, at least in your AU, it's considered a love potion because of that.

BUT there are warnings against using said love potion on a Darling that HATES their yandere because it heightens THOSE emotions instead or a depressed Darling because that could lead to them throwing a toaster into their own damn bath or smth.

And so, they try to plant the "seed of love" by being nice and shit before finally using the potion. Ofc, at least half the school will probably make the mistake, mostly first years, before curing us.

You inspired me.

But I did adjust your idea a little.

Let's say there are a variety of love potions, but many of them don't last forever. Say they last a week at most, and yanderes have to constantly force these potions down their throats.

All except one. An elixir of love that lasts till death, one that can never be broken or undone. But it can be beaten.

Not by hating the caster, but by being completely indifferent. Because there's a fine line between love and hate, but indifference is stronger than the two.

I had to write an imagine for this.

Imagine....

Sweetness.

Sickening, pungent sweetness that feels like it's rubbing sugar right into your brain. It smells like honey mixed with raw sugar, and topped with enough sweet syrup to cause diabetes.

That's what a love potion smells like.

Horrible stomach-churning sweetness.

Professor Crewel had given you a facemask to protect yourself from the cauldron of sweetness that he was teaching you to make. He'd be using what he's instructing you to make as an example for a class you weren't allowed to sit in on.

"Ugh..."

"Bear with it pup. The suffocating smell means you're making it right." Crewel drops two long swan feathers into the bright pink brew. "Now mix."

You comply, watching the colour lighten. You'd been attending these extra classes for a while now. And by seven, were they a god-send. Professor Crewel had been more than willing to break the law to teach you about the stuff you had been forbidden from learning in his tutoring sessions. Platonic yanderes were also a god-send. Professor Crewel, teaching you everything about protecting yourself from your schoolmates.

But from what he told you, why were you making this? "But why do I have to make this in the first place. You told me darlings can't cast love spells."

"That's correct, pup. I believe I also told you why?"

"Because darlings can't feel love strong enough to produce un-dying love?"

"Correct again, pup." Ruffling your hair as his magic levitates a vial of something into the boiling vat. "As to why I'm teaching to make this, is because those mutts outside, " He scowls as he mentions the seemingly endless number of yanderes chasing after you, "will use this against you to keep you to themselves forever."

You gulp nervously, "Professor, what kind of love potion is this."

"A permanent one."

"B-But I thought-" That it was impossible. Love potions don't last forever because the love of the caster will eventually fade. They only tend to last a week at best, and usually have to be taken frequently to keep the darling in love with the yandere. That was what Crewel had taught you.

"Most love potions don't last forever. But this is the Elixir of Eternity. The most powerful love potion to ever been created." You take a uneasy step back, your stomach churning in worry. "So what the difference between regular love potions and the elixir?" You ask as you tighten your grip on the mixing paddle.

He ladles out some of the bubbling potion into a crystal glass, the pink liquid shimmers and glitters in the crystal, and holds it out to you. "It would be best to just show you. Take a deep breath, pup. What does it smell like?"

You lean forward and take a deep breath. The sweetness burns your nose. "Ugh. Sugar, just sugar. Like just smelling that is going to give me cavities."

Crewel chuckles, "The sweetness is in all love potions, pup. All potions meant to mimic love all have to be as sweet as possible, just like love it fakes. Now pup, drink it."

"What." You say, completely dumbstruck. "Um, why should I drink it? I'll fall in love with you, won't I?" You really hope that you haven't made a terrible mistake agreeing to be tutored by Crewel, because if you misunderstood his attention and affection for parental affection when it was actually romantic then you need to run.

"Don't worry pup. It's incomplete, nothing will happen to you. I wouldn't have taught you about this if I planned on tricking you." He places the glass in your hand, and pushes it toward you. "Now drink."

Your hands tremble as you place the glass against you lips. He's watching so maybe you can't pretend that you actually drank it. "I'm waiting, pup."

You take the tiniest sip possible from the glass and the sweetness burns against your tongue. You wince, it's vile. It's like being force fed a 15 pound bag of powdered sugar. You swallow roughly and then choke, as you force the glass down on a nearby table and cough.

"Oh, that was awful...." Crewel hands you a handkerchief, which you spit into.

"How do you feel?"

"Like someone tore off my tongue and dipped it in molten sugar!" You yell.

"Anything else?"

"No..." Wait. "No. You feel fine otherwise. "But, why didn't I-"

"I told you nothing would happen to you, pup." He reassures you, taking that horribly sweet liquid away from you. "As for why it didn't do anything, that is today's lesson."

"So what went wrong, why didn't that work?"

"Love potions can be very strong tools, but to you, as you know, they are your greatest enemy. However, they are not without the Elixir is not without its flaws. As the only permanent love potion, it needs help to last as long as it does. It needs the darling to feel any love for the caster."

"So the potion won't work if I hate them?"

"Not exactly. To the Elixir, indifference is their biggest weakness." Crewel explains ," It needs a strong emotion to feed of off, and love, platonic or romantic, is a strong feeling, that the potion will use to produce more strong emotions."

"Is there any other way to cure it?" You aren't completely indifferent to your classmates. Ace and Deuce may have started invading more of your boundaries after the tart incident, Jack might have gotten very possessive during the full moon and sure you thought everyone else was being a little more invasive lately but you still cared about them, at least a little.

"That's your problem pup. There isn't." You feel an ice cold chill engulf you. Even when you're so close to the flames the potions simmering on, you feel like Crewel just dropped you into ice.

The first years were learning this tomorrow and the second and third years already had. There was no cure, you're screwed.

"T-Then how can I...?" You trail off, now trembling.

Crewel takes the paddle from you, "Pup, breathe." He embraces you with one arm and you can feel the strands of his coat tickle your face. "Remember the very last thing I want to do is endanger you. And while I am bound by law to teach it this to those filthy mongrels, I would never leave you in harms way."

You sniffle, burying your face deeper into his coat. He's not lying, he's told you about the love spell antidotes he has in reserve for you."So can you make me immune to it or something?"

"The only way to protect you from the elixir is up to you pup."

"W-What?"

"Remember, the spell feeds off strong emotions, what beats love and hate?" You can't come up with an answer. In this world, those two are forces to be reckoned with.

"Pup, it's indifference. You must feel nothing for them, as you should considering those strays wish to rut against you till the end of time, but you must not care about them in any way, as a lover, as a friend or as an acquaintance. No matter what they do you cannot show any sign that you care."

"But what if I do care about them, even a little?" You try to reason. You don't think that you would be completely unfazed if they lived or died, they still did nice things when they weren't completely obsessed with you, though that wasn't as common now.

"Then pup, you'll be forced to love them with all your heart. Whether you like it or not."

mods are asleep post cinnamon roll recipe:

3/4 cup of warm milk (think like. bathwater temp)

packet of instant yeast

1 tsp of sugar

mix those bad boys together and let sit for a bit until the yeast foams up (i like to use a big measuring jug, saves me from washing another bowl)

1/2 cup sugar (i like to use brown or raw sugar but caster sugar works)

2 tbsp melted butter

1 whole egg (warm it up to room temp, i put it in a mug of room temp water to speed up that process)

chuck those bad boys into the yeast/milk mixture and mix again

in a separate bowl add:

2 1/2 cups of plain flour

1/2 tsp salt (change it around depending on the salt ur using)

and add the wet mixture to the flour and mix until it forms a dough, and then you gotta knead it until the dough starts to be smooth and "windowpane" (so like. 10 mins?)

cover it with cling wrap and let it rise for an hour, then roll it out into a rectangle thats about a centimetre thick.

coat with softened butter (leaving a lil gap at the top or bottom which youre gonna use to help keep the roll stuck together) and coat with:

1/2 tbsp cinnamon

1/2 tsp ginger (it adds some nice heat to it, but its not necessary)

1 tsp vanilla extract

1 cup brown or demerara sugar

roll over the dough with the mix on top to make sure the sugar doesnt go flying as soon as you start rolling, and slowly but tightly roll up the dough, using that lil gap of uncoated dough to seal the roll

slice into 10-ish pieces depending on how long the roll is (i use a relatively sharp knife and a sawing motion to cut through without crushing the rolls)

chuck in a dish lined with baking paper or oil and let them rest with cling wrap on top for another hour or so (when they've risen they should be touching eachother slightly, so dont put them too close or too far.....)

brush some melted butter over top of the risen rolls and bake for 15-20-ish minutes at 180c and theyre done!!!! add icing or whatever (i just do a simple icing with icing sugar, butter and a bit of milk but cream cheese is good too, just hard to make lol) and enjoy teehee

#this is a kind of altered version of ysac's recipe so if my instructions suck theres a video with essentially the exact same recipe #but this literally fucking rules these cinnamon rolls r the best ive ever had and theyre obscenely easy to make #words

Baking cookies for my love! , I stir and mix~❣️

———————————————————————@

Pairing: (❤️💜) Jan Peteh x Nace Jordan (🐈‍⬛💞🐕), (💖💙) Bojan Cvjetićanin x Jure Maček/implied (🎤💕🥁), (🧡🖤) Kris Guštin x Damon Baker/mentioned (👑💗📸)

Warnings: (‼️) minor depictions of a character throwing up off-screen (Bojan fr eats raw cookie dough like the chaotic puppy he is) , RPF! don’t like, don’t read. Just a whole lotta fluff N gay pinning from here on out :3 (❕)

Word count: (👾🗒️) 1.3k/roughly (📝😭)

Tags: (🎁🐱) tooth-rotting fluff/baking as a love language/pinning/very, very gay pinning/author can’t tag to save their life/flour fights/Bojan’s only purpose here is to look pretty and be a lil shit /just two kitties and one puppy being chaotic and in love/Igor being his dad’s no.1 wingman/the inherent eroticism of making bear-shaped cookies for ur crush as a birthday gift/obligatory heart to heart while ur other best friend is throwing up raw cookie dough in the toilet (🍪🧸)

Summery: (🧈💘) Nace’s birthday is only a week away and Jan still hasn’t been able to find a good enough gift for the older bassist that he *just* so happens to have a not so small (read: big fat) crush on, and with the other 3 getting increasingly more sick of both boy’s *obvious* homoerotic pinning, 2 of them decide to help him out a little (🤮😽)~

~ @ * , • > . 🎁 . < • , * @ ~

• > * . + , ^ ~🐱 ~ ^ , + . * < •

{5 hours prior}

“Why don’t you try baking him some gluten-free cookies or something ”? , Jure suggested — it’d been atlest three hours since band practice ended for the day. But with a certain turtle owning, Pokémon loving, big brown eyed brunette bassists birthday coming up a week from now, one of their guitarists may have had an internal crisis over what to get him which leads the four boys to their current situation. Brainstorming ideas back and forth till something finally clicks. Just like how they’ve always done when it comes to their music…

Except working on a new song or playing around with different beats and cord progressions is currently the last thing on their minds right now. Instead having to help out their permanently tired, cat-like main guitarist who oh so coincidentally had sorta gained a “teeny tiny baby (read: incredibly giant ass ) crush ” on the soon-to-be birthday boy.

“Jure, ur a genius “! , the guitarist in question quipped. Signature smirk tugging at his lips then whipping out his phone and googling the best gluten-free cookie recipes. As the youngest of the three let out a sigh of relief then muttered a quiet “finally ” while jumping off their rehearsal spaces infamously worn-out couch and gently taking his guitar of it’s stand. Their frontman following suit. ”maybe if Janči can get his shit together with Nace by next week, you could finally score a date with Damon ”~ , “yeah yeah, shut up Bojći ”. He shot back playfully, only a slight pink tint dancing across his cheeks from the other’s teasey comment.

{present time}

Plopping a stick of softened butter into one of the many bowls layed out on the counter as another set of hands belonging to their shortest bandmate passed the caster and light brown sugar to Jan for mixing into a large bowl as he began stirring all the dry ingredients together while the older of the two started cracking an egg then stirring it thoroughly till it’d had combined with the butter/sugar mixture. Handing over another set of ingredients and sift to his boyfriend, Bojan attempted dipping his finger into the flour bag then booping Jure’s nose. Electing a giggle out of the taller drummer who retaliated by butterfly kissing Bojan’s nose till a white, powdery mark appeared as the younger flashed his iconic smile from the sudden movement.

One flour fight and change of jeans later, Jan went back to mixing the batter until they were left with a soft, slightly sticky dough for shaping. Hoping they had enough leftover to make bear ears to decorate their confection with, only turning around when they all heard a faint sound of a meow and Bojan cooing over the fluffy creature while simultaneously keeping his little paws from getting prints all over the counter and adorable little head into the butter tub.

While Jure was spooning the dough onto a baking tray and helping Jan mould them into their desired shape, the blonde’s lover sneakily curled his fingers around the rim of the mixing bowl and stole a few bites of the (raw mind you) batter. Sure, he may of eaten more than the recommended amount. BUT it’s not like it’s HIS fault cookie dough is one of the greatest foods ever invented. Only pulling away when their guitarist turned around to check on Igor and give the cat some pets, chin scratches and letting him sniff his dough coated fingers. Until Jure noticed the bowl’s rim was suddenly clean and the only person closest enough to stick a hand in it other than him was Bojan.

“Bojan, did you just eat raw cookie dough straight from the bowl “?-

“No”….

“Bojćiiiii ”.

“If raw dough isn’t ment to be eaten, they why does it taste so good “!

“I swear if you get sick again, Kris is gonna have to lock you in the apartment so you’ll actually rest for once “-

And as if his friend had been gifted the power to speak anything he merely desired into reality right then and there, Bojan’s face contorted into a grimace and darted to the toilet. After both boys let out equally disgruntled twin sighs, they began placing the batter filled baking trays into the oven and cleaning everything up. (And maybe playing a round or two of rock, paper, scissors to see who’s on dish duty), while Jan kept a watchful eye on the cookies so they wouldn’t burn to bear-shaped crisps. Igor strutting over and sitting next to the dark-brunette guitarist, curiously gazing at the sweet treat rising from the sheer heat his dad’s oven provided.

“What if he doesn’t like them at all “? — the second youngest bandmate spoke all of a sudden. Tone sounding a hybrid between unsure and questioning. Drying the last of the spoon’s and abandoning it on the rack, Jure appeared next to him and crouched down infront of the oven as Igor started pawing at the blonde’s shoes. Staring Jan dead in the eyes while he deadpanned “were talking about the same man who made turtle shaped gingerbread cookies with mini Christmas hats and ugly sweaters on. Why wouldn’t he like them “?!

He asked with a look of “ I knew you weren’t always the most aware, but Jesus fucking Christ “.

Shuffling around to face the other boy, Jure placed both hands on Jan’s shoulder’s with a fond sigh and said matter of factly “have you seen the way Nace looks at you when we’re playing infront of a crowd? Like you literally hung every single star in the sky single-handedly just for him to look up at every night before he goes to bed, or how he smiles when you smile back him, even if it’s only for a couple of minutes ”.

“he’s just doing that to be polite Muca! And knowing him, he’d probably take the cookies and say thank you then flash that stupidly perfect dimpled smile he has then throw them in bin as soon as he get’s inside or he’ll think their stupid but won’t say anything cuz he’s too nice and sweet for his own good or, or “-

“Or he could like them sooo much, he invites you over the next day to say thanks and then kisses you and say’s he loves you like we all know he wants to ”! , a familiar voice chimed in from the bathroom out of the blue. The same voice then resuming the gagging noises and grotesque sounds it’s been making for over an hour now. It’s owners lover rolling his eyes fondly then scrambling to pour a glass of water and hurry upstairs to help their frontman. So much for being the one who’s severely allergic to any sort of health and safety.

The sudden ping of the oven made a beeline straight to Jan’s ear’s, pulling him out of his trance as the Slovene fitted a pair of oven gloves on and gently pulled the tray of cookies out from the machine onto the counter closest to it. Leaving them to cool for a couple of minutes before sticking the pre-made bear ears on and throwing on some finishing touches, finally transporting each one into a box they (read: Jure and Bojan) decorated from head to toe in rainbow confetti, turtle stickers, Pokémon drawings, violet candles and a big purple ribbon neatly wrapped around the box’s lid.

“You think he’ll like them, Igor “? — He whispered to his furry friend who was currently lazing around underneath one of the stools, only getting a slow blink and yawn in return.

“Thought so “…<3

Baghrir, Moroccan spongy pancake

Ingredients :

For about fifteen small pancakes with a thousand 12 cm holes (4.7 in)

The number of baghrir depends on the pan used.

300 g (10.6 oz )very fine or fine semolina (not couscous semolina)

125 g (4.4 oz )flour

630 ml (21.3 oz) warm water

a pinch of salt

1 level teaspoon fresh or dried baker's yeast

1 teaspoon caster sugar

2 baking powder of 7 g each or one of 11 g

Instructions :

Dilute the baker's yeast with a little water taken from 630ml (21.3 oz).

Pour the remaining water into a mixer and add the diluted yeast.

If using dry yeast, add it after the flour.

Add the semolina, salt, sugar and flour.

Blend well until bubbles form and you obtain a smooth batter.

Add the baking powder and give a final stir.

Strain through a fine sieve to remove any lumps if present.

Wait no longer than 10 to 20 min to start cooking.

You can bake them immediately after you have finished preparing the dough.

Heat your frying pan and pour in a small ladleful of paste.

The paster should just cover the surface of the frying pan (a thin layer)

Don't use too much batter or the baghrirs will be too thick.

I use a small 14 cm (5.5 in)frying pan.

These pancakes can only be cooked on one side.

When all the holes have formed and there's no more raw batter on top, your Moroccan spongy pancake is ready.

Put them on a towel or paper-towel to cool.

keep cooking your thousand-hole pancakes.

After every 3 pancakes, cool the pan under running water and continue cooking.

Even if it´s not necessary, it increases your chances of success. Baghrir is rather capricious, like macaroons but With this recipe, you won't fail.

The worst recipe for Kimchi I've ever seen.

So I'm a food nerd, if the love of Anthropology of food isn't self-evident enough in the 50 page doc on the history of food and food Anthropology based on Subsistence. lol

And I'm a super food nerd when it comes to kimchi. I've tried almost all the varieties of vegetables one can kimchi and learned their mush points. And this, by far is one of the worst recipes of kimchi I've ever, ever read. And being a food nerd, I'll break it down for you.

Don't worry, it's not made by a Korean--it's made by someone white, but I am Korean. And before someone chases me down, "You're an adoptee" I grew up in Korea for the first 5 years and have been tracking down Eomma's kimchi recipe after I semi-remembered the flavor. TT Covid stopped me from going overseas to test it out.

I know when you think of kimchi, you most likely think of the spicy cabbage variety, but I'll inform you that I've made a lot of types of kimchi. I made the Dae Jang Geum Kimchi after a lot of research and digging around. I made kimchi in plastic that never turned out well. I've taken out ingredients and put them back in. I've made kimchi out of different vegetables, and I famously got cited by my own city for making Eomma's kimchi, which BTW, has raw clams and mussels in it.

I've made monk Kimchi too, and gave those tips off to Maangchi.

I'm like kimchi geek over here. I can tell you all different facets of kimchi. Maybe because I tend to hyper focus on things, and I definitely hyperfocused on kimchi.

So I definitely can say the above is not kimchi.

Let's define Kimchi:

Kimchi is an aerobic lacto-fermetation process that is usually balanced with a protein in order to preserve mainly vegetables/vegetation, but sometimes seafood or other seafood matter.

Why is this not a kimchi?

1 Chinese cabbage

3 garlic cloves, crushed

2.5cm/1in piece ginger, grated

2 tbsp fish sauce (optional)

2 tbsp sriracha chilli sauce or chilli paste (see below)

1 tbsp golden caster sugar

3 tbsp rice vinegar

8 radishes, coarsely grated

2 carrots, cut into matchsticks or coarsely grated

4 spring onions, finely shredded

Chinese cabbage is not the same as napa. Chinese cabbage is longer than napa. Does it look similar, yes. Have I attempted to make kimchi out of it yes. Did it have the same properties? No.

But forgive the white person for not knowing that. Chinese cabbage has more water content than your average large head of Napa.

3 Garlic cloves is laughable. It won't preserve for a year like kimchi is supposed to.

1 thumb of ginger? No. No. No. That's not enough.

The fish sauce is not optional. You need that to even out the lactobacilli. If you're not going to use fish sauce, then up the protein content with barley. I really do swear after messing up kimchi on purpose the fish sauce does have a FUNCTION not just a taste.

BTW, more than fish sauce goes into kimchi, though. Usually depending on the region you might get shrimp paste, mussels, clams, crab, octopus, squid, oysters. These pretty much ceviche in the liquid over time.

My favorite is Eomma's recipe with katuggi. ^^;; But I suppose that would anger both my parents. Hers I'm fairly sure had mussels, clams and maybe crab? And yellow corvina fish sauce.

Anyway... Sriracha is made up of red jalapenos, which do not belong in kimchi. Kochu is special. BTW, this already has sugar in it. Kochu is designed to stain on purpose. See the slurry portion below.

golden caster sugar isn't something that came about until industrialization.

rice vinegar is a totally different process of fermentation than kimchi. It won't render the same results.

European radishes don't belong in kimchi. Have I tried it? Yes. Did I regret it? 100%. TT There isn't really a substitute for Mu. Daikon is a distant second. European radishes are when you're dying in a desert and there is a gun to your head to make the kimchi with them and you have no other choice. Get this: Koreans who moved to Brazil, rather cut out the radish component completely, use European cabbages than use European radish. It's just nasty to bite into as a kimchi. Mu has less water content and is far denser than your average daikon and definitely over European radish. I'd choose watermelon radish over European radishes. (Have I made that into kimchi? Yes.)

Carrots do sometimes go into kimchi, but I don't think that's why it's there. This is more a Jeolla thing though.

You're not supposed to shred green onion for any dish I know... and I'm thinking of things like pajeon and green onion soup. Where is the slurry? ALL Korean Kimchi has a slurry, if it has sweet rice flour, whole wheat flour or Barley flour. It has to have a slurry. The slurry has a function. It's there to make sure the ingredients distribute evenly.

Lactobacilli aren't going to act in ONE day. This brings the health benefits of kimchi.

The food science:

Since the majority of Korean fermentation lives on the wild side and likes things like air and sun, often the "weird" ingredients in kimchi that foreigners hate are there to MAKE SURE YOU DON'T DIE when you eat it. Stop trying to cut it out without understanding its function.

Got it? Now stop doing this crap and actually understand the food science of things like the anti-bacterial properties of garlic. How lacto fermentation is good for you, so you don't leave it out for only one day.

Koreans boast their heads off about the health benefits of kimchi as passed down from our ancestors for thousands of years. Why mess with a good thing without understanding why our ancestors made it that way?

✓ Chocolate baking

Eating chocolate is pure joy, cooking with it a delight, even smelling it bewitching, but buying it shakes my faith in human nature.

The best chocolate is wonderful, but most is not worth buying and most People buy terrible stuff.

Good quality plain or dark chocolate will taste smooth not greasy, bitter not raw, intense not oversweet, with a long finish, not a cloying aftertaste.

But how do you know good quality?

Price is not a reliable guide - in fact supermarkets’ Own brands are usually excellent and are a good bargain when buying in bulk for cooking.

✓ The quality and taste of chocolate is détermined by the quantity and quality of the Cocoa solids- the dry solids plus the added Cocoa butter- used in its production.

The quantity of solids, at least, IS indicated on the packet.

Couverture chocolate, used for fillings and icings, usually has around 55 per cent Cocoa solids, bitter chocolate around 65 per cent, and Super amer or extra bitter, best for puddings, fine cakes and eating, is just over 70 per cent.

Some chocolates labelled’ for cooking ‘ Can contain as little as 30 per cent Cocoa solids: the rest is sugar, fats and flavourings.

✓ The raw material for Chocolate is the Cocoa bean, found in the large yellow-green fruits of the Theobroma cacao tree which grows only within 20 degrees north or south of the equator.

Each tree yields enough beans to make around 2,5 kg of chocolate each year.

The best chocolate is made From a blend of beans- each type has its Own individual character and colour ranging From pale coffee through to dark mahogany Brown.

Store chocolate well away From other foods in an airtight container in a cool,dry place, because it Can easily be tainted by other Flavours.

✓ Avoid storing chocolate below 13°C, or in the fridge, as beads of moisture will form when you bring it to room temperature.

Don’t store in a hot kitchen(30°C or above) or it will développant a White bloom as the Cocoa butter Comes to the surface.

The bloom does not affect its taste however- it Can still used for cooking.

Chocolate begins melting at 30°C(that’s why it melts in the mouth) and Burns AT 110°C.

Melt it slowly and gradually as it easily becomes overheated and scorched, and turns into an unusable solid mass.

Chop it into evenly sized pieces so it melts at thé same rate.

✓ Place in a shallow, heatproof bowl set over a pan of streaming hot, not boiling, water.

The water must not touch the base of the bowl, and no drop of water or Steam should touch the chocolate or it will seize up.

Stir frequently, and remove from the heat as soon as it melts.

Chocolate Cakes:

Almond Chocolate Kugelhopf :

400 g strong white bread flour

½ teaspoon sea salt

15 g fresh yeast

60 g golden caster sugar

200 ml skimmed milk, lukewarm

3 medium eggs, beaten

100 g unsalted butter, softened

50 g slivered or flaked almonds

60 g plain chocolate, roughly chopped

Nut Coating :

25 g unsalted butter, very soft

50 g slivered or flaked almonds

icing sugar, for dusting

one 23 cm Kugelhopf mould

Makes 1 large Cake

To use easy-blend dried yeast, mix one 7g sachet with 140 g of the flour. Mix in the sugar and milk and let rise for 30 minutes.

Make a well in the remaining flour, add the salt, add the yeast liquid and eggs and proceed with the recipe.

✓ To make the nut coating, thickly butter the inside of the Kugelhopf mould with the very soft butter, then press the almonds all around. Chill while preparing thé dough.

To make thé dough, mix the flour and salt in a large mixing bowl, then make a well in the centre.

Crumble thé yeast into a small bowl, then cream to a smooth liquid with the sugar and milk. Pour into the well, and work in enough flour to make a thick batter.

Cover with a damp tea towel, and leave at normal room temperature for 30 minutes.

The batter should look bubbly.

Add the eggs to the yeast liquid, stir until combined, then gradually beat in the flour to make a soft and very sticky dough.

Beat the dough in the bowl with your hand or with the dough hook in an electric mixer for about 5 minutes or until it becomes firmer, smooth, very elastic and shiny.

Work in the soft butter until thoroughly incorporated, then the almonds and chocolate.

When evenly mixed, carefully spoon the soft dough into the prepared mould(it should be half full).

Cover the mould with a damp tea towel and let rise at normal room temperature until the dough has almost doubled in size and has risen to about 2.5 cm below the rim of the mould-about 1 hour.

Bake in a preheated oven at 200°C(400°F) Gas 6 for about 45 minutes, or until the Cake is golden brown and a skewer inserted into the dough midway between the outer edge and inner tube comes out clean.

Leave to cool for 1 minute, then carefully unmould on to a wire rack and let cool completely.

Serve dusted with icing sugar.

Store in an airtight container and eat with 3 days or freeze for up to 1 month.

It can also be lightly toasted under a grill.

Variations:

Marbled Kugelhopf

Replace 50g of the strong white bread flour with 50 g sieved cocoa powder and 25 g sugar.

Replace the 60 g plain chocolate with a similar quantity of white chocolate, roughly chopped. Proceed as in the main recipe.
