Pancake This time, I made banana pancakes. I decided to cook these pancakes on a frying pan, as pancakes are usually cooked. I used butter, which gave them a butter and banana hotcake flavor. However, they didn't puff up well, and they ended up looking like thin hotcakes (so I stacked them up).
Pound cake This time, I made a pound cake with extra sugar (about a 10% increase). The result was a cake with a distinctly confectionery flavor. Adding milk (10g) also made the cut surface moist and visually appealing. Pound Cake Recipe: […]
Pound cake This time, I made a pound cake with dried citrus peel (chenpi). The finished cake had a strong orange flavor from the ground peel. When adding fruit to pound cake, using dried fruit seems to prevent it from becoming sticky or soggy. […]
Pound cake This time, I increased the amount of milk to 20g and made a pound cake. The method was the same as last time: I folded in the meringue at the end and took the cake out of the pan after it had cooled slightly. The result was a very light and fluffy texture, likely due to the increased milk. Adding more liquid makes it softer, but letting it cool in the pan seems to prevent the sides from collapsing.
Pound cake This time, I made a raisin pound cake. When it was done, the raisins had all sunk to the bottom, but the taste was great. Since dried fruit has less moisture, it's easy to work with because the pound cake doesn't get sticky. I'll need to figure out how to keep the raisins from sinking next time.
Chiffon cake I tried making a chiffon cake in a pound cake pan. This time, to make it easier to remove from the pan, I greased the inside. The finished cake only rose to about half or two-thirds the height of the pan. It had risen to about 90% of the pan's height during baking, but it seems to have shrunk. What's more, when I cooled it upside down without removing it, it shrank by about another half and fell out of the pan. The texture became chewy. The oil I applied to the pan might be the cause. […]
Jelly This time, I tried making a carbonated jelly with coconut milk. As you can see from the appearance, the coconut and carbonated water separated. The texture wasn't fizzy, but rather a bit tingly, and not very good. […]
Pound cake This time, I tried making a pound cake with milk. I referred to the chiffon cake recipe from last time, and the result was a fluffy cake, similar to the pound cake I made with soy milk. This time, I also put the cake in a mold […]
Pound cake Previously, pound cakes made with soy milk would turn out sticky inside and wouldn't rise. So, this time, I tried making one using a chiffon cake recipe as a reference, as chiffon cakes remain fluffy even with added moisture. I referred to a chiffon cake recipe for […]
Pound cake This is my fourth time making soy milk pound cake. This time, I tried greasing the pound cake mold with olive oil. It puffed up reasonably well when baked, but then quickly deflated. The bottom was still as moist as ever. More about the recipe […]
