I totaly agree with you dan about why most american cookbook authors don't think of translating US measurements to Uk, ahuge country= ahuge market.
I love american cookbooks because of the heavy text (a lot of details and information) and that makes the book valiable. The cup & spoon measurement are truely easy for the home baker if you lazy to use a scale. But thats makes me nervers when doubling recipes, because many proffetional bakers advised me using the grams measurment in doubling recipes.
I wish the japanese pastry masters translate there art in to english one day!

NO, its not on the cover of dessert circus at home. It's on the other one. And yes it look like as you discribed chefette. at LeNotre resturant they call it vermicelli with creme brulee and it's very famous here in kuwait and made a huge success that the chefs cant take it off the menu from many years.
I would like to get my hand on the recipe to impress my family.

Like a couple people have mentioned, black sesame seed products are very popular in Japan and have been for quite some time now.
I recently picked up this black sesame cream puff, with a black sesame custard inside as well (the gray stuff in the bottom right).
What about the taste?

Beautiful ALTAF. It looks delicious. Were there chopped dates in the dough or date paste?
No there was no chopped dates, but it had a sweet taste. I think it was dates water.
i should ask more when i see the bakers next time

I know about the site (cake chef), and the translation is not clear enough. i'm very impreesed with the japanese work, they are creative people especialy when they started to use foreign recipes with there local ingredients (example: tiramisu with green tea or green tea cheesecake with black sesame seeds).
I think i should study japanese.

Hello,
Cupcakes have always been kids and grown ups favourite. I would like to know how to get the perfect high look of them, like the ones sold at bakeries . Do they add more baking powder ?or do they fill the cupcake case almost to the top? do they use a special soon?
What atre the tricks??
-
Boiling point of alcohol - 78.8 C
Boiling point of water - 100 C
cooking above 78.8 will eveporate the tiny quantity of alcohol needed to add a vanilla flavour very quickly indeed.
That said, the Quran prohibits drunkenness/intoxication, not consumption
Interesting point, but you have to read THIS to understand why muslims cannot use alcohol.
I have a knowledge that cream of tartar is made from an agent left in wine barrels, then it is chemically trasformed into powder. But the finished product does not containe alcohol. Correct me if i'm wronge.?

If the cupcakes with the dutch-process cocoa were more dense than you want, I'd increase the baking powder by maybe 25%.
The cupcake recipecalls for 1/2 teaspoon baking soda and 1/4 baking powder. Do you mean i should increase the baking powder to 3/4 teaspoon? and in that case do i need to change the amount of baking soda?
Thanks in advance.
Wow. Those cupcakes look great. Let us how they turn out with more baking powder. Would you pass along the recipe? What kind of icing is that? Mmm good.Thanks
. You can fine the recipe at BOSTON, the name of the recipe is high hat cupcakes. You might need to register, they have a lot of desserts recipes.
