Hello everyone!

 

 I'm happy to be here among such talented artists.  My name is Miriam and I'm a home baker/wannabe pastry chef.  My style is very adventurous. I like to tackle recipes that force me to learn new techniques just to challenge myself.  I don't always get it on the first try but trial and error is how we all learn.  I hope to pick up tips from everyone here.

 

Hope to hear from you!

Welcome, Miriam. It's always good to hear from my (long ago) home town.

 

I'm curious -- have you thought about a formal course of study toward your goal of becoming a pastry chef? I'm sure NYC has some excellent programs. We're extremely fortunate here in GR that our community college's culinary program has an incredible professor for that part of the curriculum, Gilles Renusson. Here's his dessert list for this semester at the program's restaurant.

Gene Weingarten, writing in the Washington Post about online news stories and the accompanying readers' comments: "I basically like 'comments,' though they can seem a little jarring: spit-flecked rants that are appended to a product that at least tries for a measure of objectivity and dignity. It's as though when you order a sirloin steak, it comes with a side of maggots."
