15:04 auto No comments

It all started with the idea of cooking goat cheese and want to try new things in the kitchen. I imagined and filled tarts with fresh goat cheese, topped with a thin layer of jam and a delicious crumble. The result is elegant and delicious!

- 120g flour

preparation:

- In a bowl, cut four rounds in the pastry, previously floured.
- Place the dough floured surface below the mold.
- Prick with a fork to prevent it from rising too much.
- Place in the bottom of the pie a round of parchment paper and cover with beans or rice.
- In an oven preheated to 180 ° C, four brown pasta oven 10 minutes.
- Remove from the oven to remove the parchment paper and rice (or beans), and re-bake for 4 minutes.
- Meanwhile, prepare the goat cheese: In a bowl, mix the cheese with the egg and whisk together.
- Separately, prepare the crumble: Mix fingertips flour, softened butter (not melted) and a pinch of salt.

Russian cigarettes

14:50 auto No comments

They will be well off my feet, these Russian cigarettes. And fingers. However, the recipe itself is a cinch. But when we get to finishing, making is insured when, like me, you have two left hands. But because I have battled severe to achieve (twice, even just to take photos because the first time, they left too soon ...), I think the recipe was quite out of place here. And despite the maximum bother, it's really not bad, far from it! To be honest, they do not even have anything to envy to those of trade, provided they are successful (and I still, it is not won on the first try!). Do you dare to challenge?

ingredients:

- 100g butter, softened
- 100g sifted icing sugar
- 2 eggs
- 80g flour

preparation:

- Preheat oven to 200 ° C.
- Whisk, beat the butter and sugar.
- Add the eggs 1-1.
- Add the flour and beat until batter is smooth.
- On a baking sheet lined with baking paper, make small thin round * (3-4 max).
- The bake for 4 minutes supervisor.
- Upon exiting the oven, roll immediately on cigarettes and cool / harden on a grid.

Notes:

- * Arm yourself with patience, it will take a few tries to find the right thickness of dough to put on the plate. Too late, it cooked too fast and it breaks when shaping. Too thick, it rolls well but do not harden not so crispy!

- I suggest you start with 3 rounds per batch, no more, because when it's done, it hardens very quickly and it does not roll more correctly ...

- The perfect cooking: just browned on the edges. Plus, it's pretty damn ... No, it's not good either ...

- Good luck!

- The recipe comes from the book Cookies and cupcakes, published by Hachette.
