Once again I find myself back here. This morning I made DL's Buttercrunch Toffee as an inclusion to be put into vanilla ice cream. p.200, The Perfect Scoop. And once again (and again and again) I forgot to put in the soda and the vanilla at the end of the cooking process.
I had them RIGHT beside the burner. I have not one, but two, blue stick'ems on the adjacent page with notes in LARGE PRINTING: DO NOT FORGET THE SODA & VANILLA. and once again...well, you know. (It doesn't ruin the outcome...but it doesn't help it either.)
So I have come up with yet another aide memoire. I have cut out a section of Staples white mailing labels, leaving on the protective backing, written on each label: Soda & Vanilla, and intend to stick a label on my backing sheet each time I make the toffee. The labels will be kept in the DL book. ...could use a larger label and darker printing.
