Hahas i think my blog is becoming more and more like a baker's diary..keep talking about bakery stuff..but can't be helped la, theres just sooo many things to tell u all about..=p
Oh i just remembered that theres this very important thing that i forgot to blog, and that is for this job right, u need to have a lot of leg muscles, coz u need to stand from 730am till about 6 plus pm..sitting for only 30 minutes or less during lunch hours..hahas..but im rather used to it already..
Hmm recently i just learnt to bake pineapple cookies..actually is ningfei's job, but he got other stuff on and left the shop early, hence i have to help 收拾 his 烂摊子..apparently he only finished one tray in like 3 hours and his pineapple cookies (supposed to be rod shaped) turned out to be pineapple balls..hahas..ok la no doubt they still taste nice =p Initially the pineapple cookies are soft and nice, but after cooling for sometime te filling inside gets abit hard..i think is the pineapple filling's fault..the outer crust simplt just melts in your mouth!! OK ok stop drooling..=p
Oh and im quite proud to announce that ive learnt to make kueh lapis!! Hahas..really tedious u know! After i completed this time consuming task i really wanna salute to the kueh "lapists" hahas.. Not bad leh can kope the receipe...shhh secret secret =p Ok la basically u need flour sugar condensed milk butter egg yolks egg whites and most important cinnamon powder!! Oh man when the cinnamon powder is added it really makes u drool lor!! If u like that smell that is..nf commented it stinks..hahas..and everything have to be weighed exactly..
Anyway after u beat the egg white and sugar, take abit of that and add to the butter-condensed milk-egg yolk mixture, mix well, then pour the whole thing back into the egg white container again, then add in the sieved flour and cinnamon powder bit by bit..and fold in everything slowly..chim right? Hahas..=)
Then comes the most tedious part..scoop 2 ladle fulll of mixture to each conatiner, total four containers and spread the mixture till it is even..then place them in the oven..and keep on repeating this process but with one ladle full of mixture every time the top becomes golden brown..actually the timing is quite hard to manage, coz they just brown at any time..so u just have to keep checking..if u take them out too early it doesnt brown enough and u wont get the 'layer' effect..and if u take them out too late of course it becomes chao4 da1 la..hahas..
But anyway after some tries i managed to get in control of the time..that is to take the last 2 out 4 minutes after the 1st 2 were put in again..hahas..i guess i was too worried that it will get burnt, such that i always end up taking them out before they get browned enough..hahas..=p
So the layers were abit blurred in the end product..anyways it still looked pretty nice!! And Mr Lim commented it can be sold for 18 bucks la..yay!!
Oh by the way, in case u are curious to know..we can bring back stuff every now and then..but is those stuff that cannot be sold de..not necessary turing bad or whatsoever la, like yesterday i brought back fruit cake sides, coz they only sell the middle, aka the best piece of the tray to the customers, so the sides (still like 2.5 inch thick!) u can bring back home lor..so far i brought back cheesecake chous fruit cake and some parts of the kueh lapis la..hahas..and the people there are very kind de..they will keep asking u to try the cookies after u bake finish..yesterday me nf and James as well as Mr Lim keep koping the pineapple cookies..the "testing" reason is obviously a smoke screen..hahahas..shhh..=p
Nf James and me went to NUS yesterday to hand in the night cycling forms..so we met up in the shop before that lor..too bad didnt get to see xin yu there..but we saw Liting there..she looks quite different..but got say hi to us la..hahas..uni life seems quite interesting..=D
come visit us one day k!! =) Im working on tue thur and alternate sundays and james the rest. nf comes in the afternoon till night, everyday except sat..see ya guys!! and go for the reunion dinner on 10 feb kkz!! Go Marina eat steamboat..oh and heard that lian2 pai2 has started..that means big day coming really soon..=) really miss u people!!!
