Tuesday wasn't nearly as hectic as Monday. But I also learned about half the class did not finish their blueberry pies. So I was sorta ahead, but that's always in flux. We put our Blueberry pies into the ovens right away. The Demo today was Pate a Choux/Eclair Paste, Peach Cobbler and Apple Crisp. Luckily, the Peach Cobbler and the Apple Crisp were shared with a partner, so we only made two new things and finished up our Blueberry Pies. Chef always says "Love your dough and it will love you back." And yesterday being such a trying day and all, that Blueberry Pie and I had issues.
I made the Apple Crisp and it was so simple, but I ran out of baking time. The Blueberry Pie came out well. Not as pretty as I had hoped but pretty enough. And on the way to the car I somehow loosened the bottom of my cake carrier and suddenly the pie was on the cement floor in front of the parking garage. My pie had shattered. The top picture is what's left. All my pretty crust fell off. And what did I really expect after such a day. The aluminum foil clung to the bottom, saving it from the actual ground. I ate it anyways.
