I have to tell you that a lot of times I won't make things if the recipe is in grams. Ain't nobody got time for that.
I love to eat. Every time I go to a really good restaurant and they have a flourless chocolate cake on the menu I walk out. WTF why wouldn't you use flour if its not passover?
Definitely an oxymoron of sorts, but you might change your mind if you ever had my flourless chocolate walnut torte @Dierking : So hey, I don't know if you recall this from years ago but I always bring it up at the start of a new season. I'm early this year . . . My rabid just fan friend, Vinnie, and I have had this years-long inside joke going on that the Jets season is over by Yom Kippur. I got a text from him a couple of days ago: "Due to COVID-19, the demise of the Jets season has been moved to Chanukah." I looked at the fridge calendar. I guess the home opener is on December 5th because the first day of Chanukah this year is December 10th. Then again, it could also be a Thursday game. LMFAO.
@Biggs I didn't notice a follow up text from him sitting there until this morning, but he followed it up with: "It will be the first meaningful December game of the decade." I'm dying over here.
Growing us in NY I was always entranced with mouth watering at Kosher cakes in front windows of bakeries around passover. They all looked incredible. I'm convinced if you buried a flourless cake in a time capsule you could dig it up in 30 years and put it a pastry case in a Kosher restaurant and it would sell. I was fooled for 60 years, they always looked so good. I literally will never eat one again. If I hear my flourless chocolate cake is great, try it, I think of Lucy pulling the football away from Charlie Brown. Thanks but I'll have a ring ding.
Have some pear kugel and shut up. Alright, it's a free form tart . . . which just reminded me of something! It's how post- coma brain works: odd connections. I know I still have the clipping somewhere because I thought it was so freaking funny. That glorious yellow rag, 'The New York Post', had a headline when Britney Spears was pregnant years ago: 'Pop Tart Has Bun In Oven!' Hahahahaha. @Dierking
Ever notice how the matzoh and gefilte fish are always still on the shelves even during a hoarding crisis?
HAH! So true! You really can do a hell of a lot with matzo but I draw the line at gefilte fish. It's something I've never been able to get past, especially the gloopy jelly. My Daddy had a woman who worked in his shop who used to keep carp in her bathtub, lol. I don't give a shit if it's homemade or not, keep it away (makes faux cross vampire sign)!
So when the shit really goes down and all the ignorant obese deplorables are fighting over toilet paper and Doritos, you see me cruising through the ethic aisle cleaning them out of matzoh and sardines.
That Limoncello looks pretty good. I can see that you did a good job of making sure all the lemon oils are extracted. I like to make three batches, the ladies version is 75 proof, the mezza mezza version is 85 proof, and the killer version is 95 proof. I also use Everclear when I make this stuff. The secret is Everclear being 192 proof or 96% alcohol makes a great disinfectant! I would show you pictures but I am computer illiterate.
