Taste, don't eat....

Tonight I made a cupcakes - first time I've had a baking order since I started PCP.  I lamented to Patrick earlier in the week about how I usually am tasting things as I bake and got some great advice - taste, don't eat.

That's exactly what I did.  Vanilla bean cupcake batter is one of my favorites and I thought just "tasting" would be a challenge - but surprisingly enough, it wasn't.  I tasted, it tasted great, but I wasn't as interested in eating copious amounts like I usually do.

You know what it made me really want instead?  Homemade applesauce - yum.  Now I'm enjoying all 150 grams of it....

  2. I like this idea. Sometimes a taste is just enough anyway but we often rarely stop at that. Good tip!
