Making a pavlova for the 1st time. I'm trying to be patient, waiting for stiff peaks in my egg whites but its taking forever. Photo is what the inside of my mixer looks like while whipping egg whites, sugar, cornstarch, and vanilla bean paste. On my #Ankarsrum mixer the center spins fast. Movement shows in the photo.
Reminder for the Pizza Friday peeps:
Make your dough tonight. Let it rise on the counter (in a covered bowl, don't be a heathen) for 2 hours, then chuck it in the fridge until about 3-4 hours before you're going to make it on Friday. The flavor will develop beautifully.
Here's a quick video of my dough getting beaten up in the #Ankarsrum mixer. #food #pizza

Coming full circle with this weekend's baking- for dessert tonight, instead of going to the store for more lemons, I defrosted 6 chocolate cupcakes & frosted them with brown butter frosting I whipped up in the #Ankarsrum mixer. Treasures from the freezer for the win! (Weird how I couldn't serve my MIL a broken cake but will serve her 6 week old defrosted cupcakes. 🤷🏻♀️) Photo is 4 chocolate cupcakes with rosettes piped in brown butter frosting. They're on a white plate.
Today's #ankarsrum challenge:
Making butter 🧈
Whole Foods donated 20-25 half gallons of heavy whipping cream to the food bank. About 15 were left at the end of my shift Tuesday. We were going to throw them out because it takes up space. I snagged one.
Back to the butter. 4 cups into the Ank with the roller, cranked it up to medium high. Took awhile but soon the buttermilk separated out. I strained it & mixed more, strained then washed the butter. Added salt.
Friends, I made BUTTER.
