NO! I want it! :-[

And I want to live in a world free of commie weasels. It would be sweeter than all that pastry.

I realize I'm byproduct, of mind control... Do they, Jacko? #Unfortunate

As usual, you're a little too clever and smart, for most. ;)

Cheers, friendo ;)

What the world needs now: More erotic pastry

The pastry chef of somewhat risque little cakes shared by group of women at the Gezira club in Cairo has reportedly been arrested.

Korjiki (Russian)



I finally found an old cookie cutter with the deep fluting to make these worthwhile.  Essentially pryaniki with milk and egg added to make them cakey, the glory of the korjik is how the lobes on the edges get crispy while the center stays soft and cakey.  A good old recipe that has you melt the butter in a syrup instead of creaming the fat and sugar.  I do not know why they do the yolk glaze with stripes like that but it's cool.

The large measure of cornstarch added seems to be her innovation, probably to simulate cake flour.  I did it, and it's nice.

Those don’t look like Trump. ::)

P.S. What year is your Philco radio? Is it bakelite?

I will make the TRUMP ones later!  Yes it is bakelite, I forget the year exactly but it is 1940-42 somewhere in there, I bought it because someone probably listened to WWII on it.

That was the one where the Jewish banking system caused a socialist German uprising that had to be squashed for the sake of “democracy,” right?

No it was where Germans invaded France for the third time in less than a century because, regardless of king, kaiser, or fuehrer, and no matter what political complexion was in fashion at the time, they were still a nation of stupid turnip-farming rubes with an inferiority complex who needed to be taught to stay in their own borders.

Meh. It still resulted in Israel anyway. Then they got to teach Palestinians how to stay in their borders.  ::)

With a couple other traditional figures.



I used my mom's gingerbread recipe with black treacle instead of molasses and about 25% almond flour to make a higher-quality cookie, and a few freshly ground mace blades and cardamom for a more sophisticated flavor.  The soldier mold's features got more or less wiped by the rising in the oven.  I need to try it with hartshorn instead of baking soda and maybe dry it for 24 hours like springerle before baking to preserve the crisp detail -- the finer elements dry out faster than the main body of the cookie and don't poof as much.  But the trumps came out good; I left one uniced to show it better.

"But the trumps came out good"  I would say that is an understatement. They came out awesome.  Any chance of some Lou Costello lovechild Justice Kagan cookies next?

Thanks!  Maybe when she croaks -- I am sure I can find RBG.  Gone unnoticed in all the technological maelstrom we are in is the indisputable fact that this is a golden age for gingerbread-mold making!  With home 3D printing and food-grade silicone, gingerbread-mold makers are no longer grandfathers glumly chip-carving away in their garages on centuries-old designs lamenting a dying art, but entrepreneurial cyberwizards capable of responding to the latest trends -- Hail Progress!

Looks too sweet, but impressive. I misread as "Spengler" cookies and thought you were celebrating 'The Decline of the West.'

RGB would be too small for gingerbread I think. Maybe she could leer from beyond on a Pfeffernuesse or something like that.

Goodness, no; the West is flourishing!  Didn't you read my paean to the gingerbread-mold renaissance?  And every year new old operas are excavated which haven't been performed in a couple centuries at least -- Hasse, Gossec, Boismortier -- and instead of the austere stripped-down productions Shreddie likes (ostensibly for budgetary reasons but really because they are a bunch of joyless wretches who suck lemons and donkey balls) today's audiences revel in slavish recreations of original staging and costumes, often in the very theaters in which the operas were performed.  There is a huge democratization of high Western culture underway, and the quality has only improved as the grubby proles get their mitts on it and wrest it from the academics.  Enough dooming!

Has Doug Tenaple addressed the resurgence of late baroque opera-ballets?  I must have missed it.

You could fill a lot of space with the stuff you miss.
