Here ya go, dweez.  :)


How was it?
I'm curious too!

Very good. I'm having a hard time wrapping them because they're soft and sticky. Next time I think I'll cook it a little longer so they won't be as soft. And I'll use a bigger pan to let them set so they won't be as thick.

Overall, I'm happy with my experience.

We need a cooking thread... Anyone want to start one?

I've been think of that for sometime, considering I cook every night of the week.

Probably better to have a Food & Drink board where we could have a few threads like that.  Budget bartender would already be suited and maybe others?

I'll get it sorted out tomorrow.
Don't put off until tomorrow, what you can put off until the day after.

There is an exception to every rule, apart from this one.

Sometimes is due to the amount of moisture but another factor is the temperature at the moment of cutting. It's a similar thing with nougat. If it's too hot it's sticky. If it's too cold it gets brittle. It's been so long I don't make that I can't give you any actual advice.  :(
It sure looks yummy!!  ;D

Nursing 2 cuts on my hand that I acquired while working today.

True. I put it in the refrigerator to make it more firm for cutting and I found that the firmness was exactly how I want it next time I make it.

Thank you. It is.  :)
