I've never made galettes. Neither have I used buckwheat flour. I have a question. Are the galettes as thin as the crepes? When I do crepes I use quite thin batter and try to make them as thin as possible. Merci beaucoup pour cette recette!

If you want to drink raw milk it should come from a very clean, healthy animal + farm. Otherwise it can put you into trouble due to possible milk infestation (including TB) . Some bacteria could be quite bad. That's why milk is pasteurized in plants. If you buy raw milk, and the source is not...

Yes, milk quality could be quite different. The best one comes from grass fed animals. Of course I mean no hormones, antibiotics or other chemicals. There is a natural difference between summer and winter milk, as there is no fresh grass in winter. That is reflected in milk. Unfortunately, we...

Charlie, about the fat content, cows have a maximum amount of fat around 5.5% (Jersey or Guernsey breeds of cows). Other types of milk (buffalo, sheep) contain more fat. Maybe you talk about a different type milk, not cows... Milk is similar in Europe, and I am sure about that as I lived most...

I made a mistake! UHT is all about ultra high temperature (135 Celsius)! That temperature kills all the bacteria, including spores. So, there is nothing about pressure...sorry. That does not make a difference for us, but I wanted to correct the mistake. I only realized that, when the edit button...

Milk is either raw or pasteurized. Raw milk is the milk you get from the cow,goat, etc, without any type of processing (heating). It has to be quickly refrigerated, as otherwise it gets sour. Raw milk, as long as it comes from a healthy, clean animal is preferable as it contains all the good...

Yes, what I found out was that by using milk and also throwing in an egg, you end up with some gorgeous, soft buns. If you like, you may also add some sesame seeds in the dough. For the surface, if you add sesame or poppy seeds you need to previously brush the dough with some egg wash, otherwise...

The only thing that matters is to keep the batter very thin, as the crepes should be as thin as possible. I use 4 eggs, 2 1/2 cups of flour, and a lot of milk, so that the batter resembles something like very fluid honey. It could be 3 cups, but I've never measured it. I keep adding it until it...

I like a salad made with 5-6 hard boiled eggs cut in quarters, 2-3 boiled potatoes cubed, one sliced onion, black olives, and either olive oil, or mayo. Salt and pepper according to your taste. Mix everything in a bowl. Put it in the fridge (covered) or eat it on the spot. It stays good...

Unpasteurized milk is illegal in Canada. So all the the yogurt I've done was with pasteurized (not UHT!!) organic milk. The milk does not need to be organic, though. It could be filtered (homogenized) or unfiltered. I prefer unfiltered but it is hard to find. Heat the milk up to 87 Celsius. Let...

By soda you mean mineral water or some coke? 1 teaspoon? I don't understand the importance of that tsp...unless it's baking soda... I need to know as I want to do them tomorrow.

I didn't use parchment paper because I brushed the pies with egg yolk. Only the surface in the end was not shiny as it is in the oven. But I checked the down side again. It was slightly more pale, but still golden brownish. So, in the end the pies came out OK. The taste was good, but I prefer...

After reading the first 40 pages I understood this small problem. I did my first two apple pies using bought puff pastry. I only got 2 bases and 2 tops from one batch of pastry. I cooked the diced apples on the stove with a little butter, dark brown sugar, and cinnamon. I cooked the pies in the...

Not bad at all! Good idea! I love puff pastry with cheese or cashcaval (that yellow hard cheese), but some sweet stripes won't ruin my taste.:yum: So, as a conclusion, puff pastry should not be reworked!
