(I promise I'll post the results of the great goose-blood experiment.
Soon as I find my notes.)
First, a definition: by oogy, I mean blooping all over the place.
Think "The Blob". Utter lack of ability to hold a shape.
Anyways, tonight marks my third attempt at good ole FoC gingerbrede.
The first time, I used the 1c honey to 1c breadcrumbs ratio in the
Miscellany. It was too oogy. Second time, I used the ratio in 1000 Eggs
(1c honey to 1 3/4c breadcrumbs). Still too oogy.
Tonight, I upped the voltage to 2 cups breadcrumbs. STILL too oogy! I
want to be able to roll them into balls for a dessert board this weekend.
I have ceased to believe that the amount of breadcrumbs is the problem.
What step am I missing? (A brief attempt at kneading led to glops of
honey crud all over me, the counter, and an investigating feline.)
Tastes good, though...I popped a glop into the spousal unit's mouth,
and just as he was about to gripe about it being too sweet, the long
pepper hit. *heh heh heh* But I really need a more structurally sound
item for a dessert board offering.
