My breeeeeeaaaaad :(
Mar. 6th, 2009 06:24 pmDear Self,
When using a recipe that lists measurements primarily in grams and milliliters, even if it also lists measurements in cups and such, for god's sake remember to check whether the temperature listed is in Celsius or Fahrenheit.
Love,
You
Man, I don't remember if I ever shared the Onion Cheesecake story here (I'll search when the next batch is in the oven), but this totally has the potential to match its levels of failtastic.
That is to say: My breeeeaaaad, this is potentially a disasteeeeer T-T I mean, it was already potentially going to go badly, since I couldn't find the (modified) recipe I wanted to use and so had to make do with (modifying (hopefully appropriately)) a different recipe, but this is just... Uuuurrrrrrrrgh ;_;
I guess I shall wait until it comes out of the oven from its revised cooking temperature to judge. And then possibly wait again until after the second batch, which will start at the correct temperature.
Also, I need to either find the paper that has the recipe I want to use written on it, or get a second copy from Barb. Because that would be better for my peace of mind all around.
My breeeeaaaaad DDD:
Edit: Good news, everyone! Unlike the Onion Cheesecake of Fail, my bread actually tastes about right! I am still going to do things a little differently next time (like when I add the spices, orz), provided I can't find the "original" recipe, but I feel no need to go out of my way to get a new copy of it, so. I call it a success! Of sorts! Yaaaay!
Edit 2: Remind me, one day, to rave about RideBack (anime version) and how it is made of wintastic and keyboard-mash-inducing awesome. (It's about a ballet dancer who rides a motorcycle/robot thing, and also there's political intrigue-ish-stuff! I DON'T KNOW HOW THAT IS THE FORMULA FOR AWESOME, BUT IT WORKS, LET ME TELL YOU.)
