Edible books!
Those are made of colored bao dough, from what I could see of the insides. Possibly some extra xanthan gum or tapioca starch to give it that firmness after steaming.

My daughter’s birthday requests: fried steak and a blackberry cake:





I used to have a Bundt pan. It has transcended my plane of knowledge, but the internet exists, so a workaround was achieved.

These are professional senior researchers doing fieldwork. I hate it when media makes it sound like scholars are just pursuing a hobby.

Love the Bundt pan workaround. I have misplaced mine. Or maybe it didn’t survive the purging from my last move.

It’s entirely possible my Bundt pan didn’t come with me on the last move too, but I thought I had it. The workaround did result in a cosmetically beautiful cake, but served it’s use. Beans in the can to weigh it down.

I was having problems with posting my images here.
Converting HEIC to JPG on iPhone seems to be the ticket.
Here is a test for May 4th at the Kentucky Derby.
By the way, I will try Agave syrup instead of powdered sugar.
Cheers!

While on alcoholic beverages…
Laurie gave me this Plum/Chili sake for my birthday last year.
I am going to serve it over ice.

I love plum wine. Choya is the ever present brand you can find in the US, i did have the fortune of having a home made version that a friend’s mom made and it was really great. A spicy version would be pretty neat :smiley: i’ll have to see if i can track one down

After reading the previously linked article about micro plastics in foods, Mark’s suggestion to line the filter with a silicone cup had me shaking my head. No thanks!
