Unglazed


Made donuts at home today. The dough was nice and airy, but needed to be a little sweeter. Good, but not worth the effort. I had to let the dough rise three times! Krispy Kremes taste just as good and require less effort.

Thanks for the reply. I'm Thai, and most of the Thai people I know, both in and out of the country, never make their own curry paste, thus you blew my mind. Alternately, I prefer cooking Italian food over almost anything.

I never thought I'd make my own curry paste, but when I had just gotten a new food processor and wanted to test it on something. Then, after having my first completely homemade curry, there was no turning back. I was actually quite surprised at how much better it tasted than my store bought curry, and it really wasn't very hard to make (just required a lot of ingredients).

I figure as long as I can whip up a decent tomato sauce and meatballs I'm covered for Italian food. Although I do like experimenting with the more exotic Italian cuisine like braised lamb. Yum!
