Churros and Chocolate in Spain

September 1, 2015 by Beth Meyer

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 […]

Icelandic Rye Bread

Icelandic Rye Bread

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. When planning my trip to Iceland and researching their food scene in the way of pastries and breads, I stumbled upon Icelandic rye bread, which is baked […]

Pastries of Paris

August 12, 2015 by Beth Meyer

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 38

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 […]

Afternoon Tea in London

April 13, 2015 by Beth Meyer

Afternoon Tea in London

One of the most quintessentially British things to do in London is indulge in an afternoon tea. Even though I’ve been living in London nearly (although not continuously) a year and a half, I’ve yet to indulge in this tradition. This was finally rectified when my class had the opportunity to visit The Ritz for afternoon […]

Pastry School Diary: Week 24

Well, we’ve done it. Pastry school is half way over and I’ve graduated from the International Patisserie Diploma portion of the course. We now have two weeks off before starting the higher culinary diploma portion of the course. It’s going to feel weird once we go back not to be in the kitchen with the […]

Pastry School Diary: Week 23

I know I keep saying this, but ever since we came back from Christmas, pastry school has been flyyyyying by. This is our second to last week of the International Pastry Diploma portion. It included soufflés, tarts, an exam and lunch at a Michelin-starred restaurant. Tuesday: Lemon Pudding Soufflé, Raspberry Soufflé and Pistachio Soufflé On […]

Pastry School Diary: Week 22

I cannot believe how fast the second half of the pastry portion of pastry school is going! Ever since our return after Christmas the time has been flying by. It’s going to be weird not to see these ladies so much every week (although a couple of them are part of the second half of […]

Pastry School Diary: Week 21

Pastry school week 21 was all about cakes. We made four of them. I arrived back in London Tuesday morning at the start of the school week after an amazing weekend in Charleston; visiting with college friends, family and the wedding celebrations of one of my dearest friends from high school. I even got a […]
