Churros and Chocolate Recipe

Churros and Chocolate Recipe

After eating some of the most delicious churros and chocolate in Spain, I couldn’t wait to get in the kitchen and make them myself! Churros are a fried pastry dough made from Choux paste, which can also be used to make other delicious pastries like eclairs and profiteroles (cream puffs). Those Spanish shepherds were really on to […]

Churros and Chocolate in Spain

Churros and Chocolate in Spain

One of the pastries most ubiquitous with Spain are churros. Traditionally churros and chocolate are a popular Spanish breakfast item, or an early morning snack after a long night out. When I booked my trip, I was on a quest to seek out all of the churros and chocolate in Spain. I mean how could anyone possibly […]

Iceland is a spectacular country with some of the most amazing landscapes and natural phenomena. One of the natural phenomena most used throughout the country is geothermal energy.

Pastries of Paris

Pastries of Paris

My dad and stepmom rented an apartment in Paris for the month of June, and since I’m just a short train ride away in London, visiting my family seemed like the perfect reason for a long weekend in the City of Light. That, and eating all the pastries of Paris. You know, for research. One […]

Pastry School Diary: Week 39

Week 39 of pastry school was our last week of class before we all start the scheduled eight weeks of work experience. After work experience is finished, we’ll come back for a week to recap our summer and then we’re done. CRAZY!! Official graduation isn’t until mid-October, but it’s so surreal how quickly the experience has […]

Pastry School Diary: Week 38

We started week 38 of pastry school at the kitchens of Billingsgate Fish Market again to complete our event using the menu we created and developed during week 37. I really enjoyed working in the Billingsgate kitchens. They’re nicely spaced out, every area has good counter space, a sink, oven and stovetop. Plus a lovely […]

Pastry School Diary: Week 37

For week 37 of pastry school we were back in the kitchen for part two of our menu planning assignment. However, due to construction at WKC, we had to use the kitchens at Billingsgate Fish Market over in Canary Wharf. The commute wasn’t as fun (smushed in the tube with a million folks in suits), but […]
