Scone with homemade strawberry jam & whipped cream

Just out of the oven scone with homemade strawberry jam and whipped cream. Mariage Freres Darjeeling Rose Camelia tea at the back.

Some desserts just can give you a sweet smile. A soft aromatic sponge is definitely one of them!

Exotic Indian-spice Macaroons with Salty Fillings

My another to-die-for signature dish!
My intention was to make macaroons in salty flavor instead of sweet, and to use brightly yellowish turmeric as natural coloring at the same time matching the taste of the filling.
And this failing batch of macaroons turn out to be very crunchy (in a high-class manner!) instead of airy like traditional. The turmeric gives such exotic sense of Indian-spice feeling to these crunchily sweet almond biscuits, and the whole thing is such a perfect companion with the tenderly salty salmon pâté!
A bite to heaven, exotically, sweetly salty, I feel like a royal. With the F. Mariage tea I now know the trick to bring out its special qualities, I'm eating better than Q. Elizabeth in the palace. Envy me.

Panna Cotta

Last time when I made portuguese egg tart, I have a leftover box of cream in fridge. So with vanilla seeds straight from vanilla pod, some milk, sugar and gelatin sheets, I have made these Panna Cotta as the dessert on a Sunday night!

葡撻

Since last time making milk tarts, I find myself quite enjoy rolling and pressing the soft dough filled with scattered butter! So this week I take out the thick book of Julia Child - Mastering The Art of French Cooking, to challenge myself making puff pastry!

I was thinking to bake egg tarts Hong Kong style or Portuguese tarts, but my friends insisted on the later, so u can see the pics.

It is not the egg filling that's tricky, but always the pastry! People who don't stay in kitchen for long won't understand the effort behind the small tart that they just bite and swallow. It took me 4 hours to make the puff pastry so that it has many many layers, crispy and tastes so buttery. So don't complain on my time management please.

Packed the pretty tarts in individual bags and I learned that not only all friends preferred portuguese egg tarts than Hong Kong style, they also find tarts with more burn marks on the egg filling are more drooling!

!danish Bar

Danish Bread 以牛油酥脆見稱，所以想吃了很久也下不了手，終於吃了，真的非常 outstanding 的味美!

飽條具牛油香不在話下，中間的蘋果粒切得很細，但能保持爽脆口感! 帶點 cinnamon 的香，但整體不過甜，我大愛!

要分享!

頗貴，要十四元一條，但值得。就在中區噴水池麥當奴側的巷子上。
