10 more days!
3 'till I can go home for the weekend!
Today was the antithesis of yesterday...I kicked fucking ass in Pastry. We made a cake called the "Saint-Honore" it's a Pate Brisee base, with Choux pastry piped in a ring on top of that, with a bit of choux in the middle. Then you make little Choux pastries, fill them with a fancy cream made from Italian Meringue and Pastry Cream, dip them in Caramel and stick them to the Choux ring. Then you fill the mothefucker up to the top with the cream, make a Caramel cage, stick the cage on top, and ding ding! You're done! CRAZY good, but my caloriemeter went off the scale...cream and sugar everywhere...soooo good. I fed the staff with it, I'm sure it was gone within 10 minutes...good thing too, as the fucking cream is only "safe" to eat for about 8 hours
...it's a freaking discount motel for swinging E. Coli and their savory partners.
Tomorrow is Guinea Foul in cusine. Yep, Guinea foul with NASTY ASS patee and an awesome sauce...but that pureed liver element ensures that it will never see the inside of my fridge...off to the other kitchen to feed the Patisseree with that one. Maybe I'll get the balls to ask that girl out tomorrow. Ahh, who am I kidding, I'm a wuss.
Happy Tuesday everyone!
