 Last night we had a lesson in patisserie from Carle Douglas from Douglas Delights. We had a patisserie lesson before from Rob in the first course, but there is a big difference… Rob is passionate about cooking and everything else except patisserie I would say, while Carle is a master in making desserts and beautiful...

Simone, ths is fabulous. Like a DB challenge, but much much more involved!(he he…yes, I remember the marchmallows). How fun to be able to learn from the master, and live! Love the way it all came together! WOW!! [Reply]

This is a gorgeous thing! The custard and profiteroles look just incredible. Must have been a great class. [Reply]

Well done! IT looks delicious. I hope you don’t get picked to be the daring bakers host – otherwise you might ask us to recreate this! Scary! And I like how you term it “dough for the bottom” – I say – don’t even bother finding out the real name. It is cute as is! [Reply]  Simone (junglefrog) Reply: @ Trissa… mmm, now that I think about it; dough for the bottom… is a bit weird right? [Reply]

I made choux pastry for the first time a few days ago and I found it not so complicated after all! I feel like trying this one. Beatiful pics, as ever. [Reply]

I grew up watching my mom make choux pastry for a dessert she made all the time. I’ve tried it once or twice. Unfortunately, mine never turn out as well as my moms. I’m so envious of your cooking classes. I’m hoping to take some in a couple of years with my hubby. Sounds like fun, fun, fun!!! [Reply]

This looks like a real treat. I love choux pastry and cream. And you are right, it is great practice for all sorts of baking techniques! [Reply]

That looks absolutely amazing. Isn’t it great to get past those cooking bumps in the road too? [Reply]

Pretty soon I will be to embarrassed to post my creations, you are becoming such a professional. Wow, this is a master’s class…… [Reply]

Wonderful Simone! Love the pastry and cream! You’re becoming quite the “expert”. [Reply]

Very glad you had enjoyed your class so much. This is like a very complicated time-consuming cake, but looking at your photo I would say it was worth it. I have made once for a friend’s birthday and are thinking about doing it one more time. Thanks for sharing, [Reply]

These classes are so great! Your cake looks beautiful and so delicious for all that work! [Reply]

Wow, you have amazing food blog! very nice cake either. I would love to take a baking course too! [Reply]

Oh Simone, how stunning is that? Funny enough, I just came across a St Honore in a French pastry cookbook and wondered if I had the courage and patience to make one. And you did it! It looks marvelous and you should take a bow! [Reply] 
Valérie - November 6, 2009 - 20:51
Wow! Now there’s a real challenge! This is really impressive, Simone! [Reply]

That is fabulous and I would not try to do that alone. I would need the class. [Reply] 
Hannah - November 12, 2009 - 03:42
Such gorgeous creations! I sure wish I could attend a class like this… Amazing work! [Reply]

Hallo, [Reply] Simone (junglefrog) Reply: Het is moeilijk om precies aan te geven wat de boter doet zonder dat je ziet maar door het inkloppen van de boter wordt het een zalig geheel. Zonder de boter zou het simpelweg niet compleet zijn. Ik vond de hoeveelheid suiker niet overdreven veel alhoewel de totale taart natuurlijk wel heel erg zoet is.. [Reply]

 It’s ofcourse a little less impressive in terms of the ingredients that we used for the patisserie lesson. A pile of fish or meat looks quite different then a lot of stuff in various bags and boxes…:) Since the ingredients for any cake or dessert need to be followed much more closely then for instance...

Simone the monster looks really impressive! I think that three things probably went wrong with your cake: 1) you had too much batter and needed a bigger cake tin 2) the batter was too runny 3) the oven was the wrong temperature 4) all of the above! BTW thank you so much for the eating-out-tips. I will be checking them out soon! [Reply] 
Simone (junglefrog) - April 6, 2009 - 10:01
You’re probably right on all of the issue Jo…:) I am planning to make the same cake again at home. The oven was at 190 °C, but the caketin was probably too small for the amount of batter indeed. I don’t think it was too runny, at least not if I compare to my regular cakes. [Reply]

Nice monkfish (aka sea devil) have you ever cooked or eaten monkfish? This reminds me of a nice dish I cooked a few years ago. I have to go check our local fish store for some monk fish now! [Reply] |
