    Sorry for the delayed response. I called Landies and spoke to the owner, explained who we were and how we would appreciate a tour....they were happy to do it, and I agree, it was a great tour!

    You could ask him if he knows people in the chocolate industry, how they got started, etc and try and suggest eG as an amazing source of information and knowledge base. (The eG workshop is an amazing place to learn and teach). kind of the “lead a horse to water but can’t make them drink” approach. and as you leave the booth, you say to the person with you, loud enough, but not to loud....wow, they really suck at tempering....don’t they!

    I am from the Iron Range in Minnesota, (As Smithy mentioned) and Potica was always a holiday staple. Any chance (fingers crossed) you would share your recipe???

    Shortbread

    RobertM replied to a topic in Pastry & Baking

    I just made a batch of shortbread from a recipe given to me by an English friend, almost your formula but with Semolina in lieu of the ground rice. Best shortbread I’ve ever had.....hands down.

    Always add additional storage, regardless of how much you think you need. Add extra power to your place. Do not install power based on equipment you have, but on equipment you would like to have Really think about your working process, plan it out, and then really evaluate your plan always think about growth, new equipment, new molds, storage of product.

    Would love a copy of the poppyseed cake formula, we make one at Christmas...it would be fun to compare (and you already helped tweak our formula)....

    A small foam brush from a art supply/hobby store. Trimmed to the size of the cavities in your mold.....the ones I use have a handle on them, no Dremel needed. I just spin the brush in the mold/cavity by hand. Quick, easy and painless

    We have some AMAZING sponsors to our little group, and to each of them we hold deep gratitude. We truly could not do what we do without their continued support! After dinner, we held our drawing for the things that our sponsors sent to us.....

    Saturday evening we had our dinner at The Chocolate Pig.... Chicken Fried Brussels Sprouts with a Buttermilk sauce... these (in my not so humble opinion) were the “hit” of the meal.... proclaimed by another eG attendee as “f......ing delicious”.....and everyone agreed (and I don’t like Brussels Sprouts)

    Saturday and Sunday at the Community College.... some worked alone, some worked in pairs, or groups, and everyone gave of their time and expertise. We shared ideas, we shared techniques, we talked about concepts and we tested new ideas.....
