What are you baking?

[gaijingirl]

possets? at this particular moment they don't sound so attractive - although I bet they're lovely.

 

[Boppity]

I got my Herman today! I'm very protective of him!

3 more days till baking! Anyone got any fun suggestions for fillings? He's so big and bubbly, I'm very proud.

why?

I had one while we were in Cornwall and it was lovely seemed the perfect way to use up some lemons and limes I had.

What recipe did you use Biddly?

posseting is what babies do when they do a little bit of sick.

I used the one at the bottom of this page with a mix of lemon and lime juice, I'm quite excited because we hardly ever have pudding, I hope it's nice

Possets always remind me of The Box of Delights where the policeman tells Kay Harker how to make a (hot) posset to build him up good and strong. I think it was more like a hot, milky, custardy, egg noggy kinda thing though that the cold citrus variety.

posseting is what babies do when they do a little bit of sick.

pos·set/ˈpäsət/


Noun:
A drink made of hot milk curdled with ale, wine, or other alcoholic liquor and typically flavored with spices.


I think it can kind of mean any milky concoction.

 

[astral]

Oh, they look nice, thanks. Let me know how they work out?

I am ridiculously excited about the idea of baking ANYTHING other than this bloody wedding cake. I think I might just man up and do the last six layers at the weekend. I'm not sure I can cope with another two weeks of doing a layer every evening or so.

baby posseting is a pretty well known word and right now since I am usually covered in it, it has a very specific meaning for me! Although I am very happy to have a yummy one too!

 

[gaijingirl]

obviously I did know that Biddly isn't making a lemon/lime baby sick treat for herself!!

 

[gaijingirl]

oh bloody hell... I'm hungry and stroppy now....

sodding diets

I'm really not... I'm just calling it what the recipe did

 

[kittyP]

I'm really not... I'm just calling it what the recipe did

I think it is quite a west country thing to call what your making a posset

 

[Biddlybee]

what else is it then?

cream pudding I guess, no fucking idea.

 

[gaijingirl]

well I've just got one on my jumper... off to clean up.

 

[Biddlybee]

there you go... baby sick pudding is what I made... yum!

 

[gaijingirl]

there you go... baby sick pudding is what I made... yum!

or my baby is making yummy yummy pudding and I just never realised!

 

[Boppity]

I thought posset was pudding too!

Never heard of it being used for baby sick.

 

[gaijingirl]

It is pudding! It's also a tiny bit of baby sick! Just one of those words that has more than one meaning!

Is it your wedding cake?

That posset recipe worked really well, they set nicely and were delicious

 

[astral]

Is it your wedding cake?

God no I'm making a friend's wedding cake.

 

[Biddlybee]

Last six layers though? How many is it?

 

[mrs quoad]

Got a very big veggie crumble in the oven

 

[Epona]

I am making late-night and slightly-pissed apple strudel (had some apples that needed using.)

Made cornbread this morning.

Corn *cake,* more like.

It's almost unspeakably sweet. AND we ran out of white flour, so I used wholemeal. Likewise, dark sugar. Likewise, gold top milk.

The whole confection is verging on inedibly rich and sweet, with chunks of bloody sweetcorn running through it all. Bleh.

Well dark sugar is always sweeter than white sugar, because it caramelises more. No wonder it's ultra sweet.
