These are the baked honey-wheat tuiles that we prepped yesterday. We made thin, rainbow-shaped schmears of dough on a silpat, baked them, then quickly wrapped the crisp tuiles around a rolling pin. Once they cool, they remain that shape.
We made madeleines today! I absolutely love madeleines. I’ve baked them quite a few times and sometimes they’ve turned out, sometimes they haven’t. To make good madeleines, it’s important to rest your dough, butter and flour your pans well, and bake them in a hot oven on hot sheet pans.

They will puff beautifully and turn a lovely golden brown. These are flavored with lemon zest.

Here’s the chiboust I was telling you about (Italian meringue folded into a gelatinized pastry cream).

We sprinkled turbinado sugar on top and broiled with a torch.

This is the chiboust with a sauce made from strawberry puree, strawberries, wild strawberries, and raspberries, with a tuile on top. Yum! The chiboust tasted like crème brulee.

We served the madeleine with sliced roasted pineapple, mango sorbet, and a pineapple chip. I felt like I was in Hawaii when I tasted it!

Souffles tomorrow! Good night, all.

It is so much fun seeing what you are doing from day to day!! I'm so happy for you having this opportunity!!
ReplyDeleteOhhh thank you!!
DeleteThe madeleines came out so beautiful! I love them too, not very sweet but rich and buttery. I'd love to learn how to make them, but the price of the pan really scares me away.
ReplyDeleteI have a Wilton pan that was reasonable. Madeleines are perfect for dunking!
