Baking Powder?!
jmarron is over today helping me with the new JP mochi cake recipe... in fact, it is he who insisted on trying out the new recipe, and he wants to eat at least 3 pieces! =D
everything is set to go, i've got the eggs, jm's company supplied the rice flour, he's got the coconut milk cans, and boom, we set straight onto the task. half way through mixing the recipe and he goes like, "Winifred, do you know what's 'baking powder'?"
"Oh, you mean 'bacing soda', i think we have some in the fridge" (Urrh... not a good sign, baking soda in the fridge?!)
being the scientific person that we are, we decided to look up the reference of "baking powder" vs "baking soda", which are unfortunately two different things. See reference link here. One being more bitter tasting while the other contains neutralizing elements. ...
i know, geeks, we had to understand everything, and jm being who he is, insists on strictly following the recipes. but "viola!", we made it! not the best tasting yet, but it will only get better from now on...
(pat pat, adorable fuz! =)
~~~ because of jm's impatience, we ended up taking out the heart and flower shaped cakes 5 min. too early, and wanting to have immediate gratification, he chose to eat one while it's still steaming hot... haha... I hope he didn't burn his mouth too badly! you have to wait until it cools!! Aiya!!
