Baking Brad Episode 16

This is episode sixteen - poppy seed slice. This one took forever and it did not help that I was coming down with a major illness.

Recipe


Good

  • All the ingredients *sounded* good on paper (again)
  • Learnt a new technique - cook with rice in the shell then throw it away?
  • The base was pretty tasty

Bad

  • I made the slice while I was sick, so mentally could not eat much of it
  • The icing was too strong with all the lemon juice required, would have been better with vanilla and water
  • Three passes through the oven was annoying

Ratings

  • The Cook - 7/10
  • The Taste - 5/10
