    Scarily, I can say I have enough copper. Not many people can utter those words.

    The same thing could be said for Le Creuset, but still. Great for braising and soup making.

Glace Cherries - Don't bother (the last cherry post, I promise)

Two weeks of glacée and bollocks #cherrygram

 

I spent the last 14 days in a futile attempt to glace cherries so that I would have FANCY cherries for some occasion that I would make up, just to use the cherries.


I tried it with frozen pie cherries. They lack the lovely translucent quality as seen in a few earlier post.

At least I have my refrigerator back and some really awesome sour cherry syrup to go on top of the faloodeh that I will eventually share with you.
