Yesterday I went to the best bagel place in town where I have gotten the most amazing babka before (comes from Baltimore) and wondered when I would have the occasion to buy it again, or better yet, make it.

But in such a rewarding way.<br /> <br />Here's the very professional and complex method I used for the sugar. (It's all bout using the right tool.)<br /><br />1. Place long-handled, wire-mesh strainer in left hand.<br />2. Place bag of confectioner's sugar in right hand<br />3. Gently pour some sugar into strainer, holding it just ABOVE the pan.<br />4. Shake and tap strainer to release powder. Tap carefully.<br />5. Wipe all excess sugar off the counter with a sponge.<br /><br />As for the golden brown problem, I can't help you. I over-bake everything. Just do what I do: Blame it on the oven.Tammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05408286714267415521noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1803470246363113005.post-46727181110405476612012-05-01T10:12:26.886-07:002012-05-01T10:12:26.886-07:00Fig preserves sound delicious and your photos are ...Fig preserves sound delicious and your photos are just wonderful! It sounds like you have been super busy and you still managed to bake the Hungarian Shortbread and write a nice post about it, my respect!<br /><br />And rhubarb in the garden...no such luck for me...<br /><br />Maybe the rest of the week will not be quite as busy...Andrea_TheKitchenLionesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05188562947486964076noreply@blogger.com
