Tuesdays With Dorie – Lemon Custard
Hot diggity dog!
I’m coming off of a bad streak. The last four or five recipes either half-flopped or totally bombed. Nothing turned out well, which is a pain in the balls because all of the recipes looked so good.
And then there was plain old boring lemon custard. Rachel wasn’t interested. I was only mildly interested, and I haven’t had luck with a pudding since butterscotch pudding some time ago. Floating Islands were an unmitigated disaster.
Lemon Custard is probably the easiest thing I’ve had to do yet, since the day that I decided to bake a blueberry pie from scratch for this crazy baking experiment. And it was good! So good! Only mildly lemony (I forgot to put in the optional lemon extract that I bought), creamy, and kind of eggy (which Rachel hated).
More custard for me.
Good bye, Internet.

Glad you liked it…sometimes it’s great to be able to hoard it all for yourself.

More for you, oh darn
And sometimes, you have those bad baking streaks – that’s when I bake some bread, because even if it’s ugly, it still tastes wonderful. Brings to mojo back, you know?
