Corrections and Clarifications for Menu 16

Dear all sorry for the corrections for in the recipes.
  • For the Zuppa, we would be using leftover pasta from the lasagne, though any other pasta can be used. So take the value from the pasta in the lasagne.
  • Add the following steps for the lasagne recipe:
In 'Method':
After Step no. 3: Add minced lamb
After Step no. 4: Blanch pasta in boiling salted water.

  • Consider the recipe for chocolate genoise sponge cake for the chocolate sponge cake. A 350gm cake would give 7 layers of cake.
Cheers!!!

The Culinary Scientist

Hey there people! Hope everyones Campus interviews going great!

If you do manage to get some free time do check up my new personal blog:



The Culinary Scientist!


Every new blog ends up starting with a an elaborate description of what it IS all about when as a reader you often want to know what all it isn't about.

This blog isn't about:

1. Top government food secrets to take over the world.
2. Showing you pictures of delicious food that'll make you feel hungry at work. (Okay, may be a little)
3. Taking a banana and trying to mutate it into a mango.
4. Being theoretical as is practical.
5. Thinking conventionally as is thinking out of the box.
6. Work as much as play.
7. Reality as much as dreams.
Finally....
8. Coldplay going out of business and opening up a cheesy restaurant with the same name.
