Now when either you or I can accomplish a non-curdled ganache, we should be taken on a trip too!evil cake ladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09028488030328153196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21995818.post-42624526308037508782008-03-24T17:27:00.000-05:002008-03-24T17:27:00.000-05:00Melinda,If you've never had a curdled ganache, I'l...Melinda,<BR/>If you've never had a curdled ganache, I'll bet you are not looking very hard for the foolproof loophole. But I'm glad to hear that the food processor method actually works.<BR/><BR/>ECL,<BR/>Oh good, it makes me feel better that you've turned out a bad ganache. Not that I'm wishing bad things on you, it's just a misery loves company kind of thing.<BR/>Jim and I are taking Elizabeth to Australia and New Zealand as a graduation present. She finally graduates from med school next month. I'm hoping that one day she'll be able to support us.Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13183158217378477758noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21995818.post-75013619392719885922008-03-24T15:08:00.000-05:002008-03-24T15:08:00.000-05:00I don't know, girls, I seem to still curdle RLB's ...I don't know, girls, I seem to still curdle RLB's ganache every time I attempt it! However, one of my only successful ganache attempts was following her instructions for the food processor one. I even turn her white chocolate ganache into while chocolate butter. Oh well.<BR/><BR/>But your cake looks really wonderful Marie! And, New Zealand--how exciting!evil cake ladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09028488030328153196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21995818.post-39718839803572658842008-03-23T18:08:00.000-05:002008-03-23T18:08:00.000-05:00The cake turned out perfect and the ganache may lo...The cake turned out perfect and the ganache may look odd, but evidently must taste very, very good! <BR/>You are right about it being frustrating to have to convert recipes. I have cups which I use for American recipes. It's when friends ask for the conversions...and don't get me started about trying to explain what a 10 inch angel food cake pan is to a Brit. (They have to be special ordered here)<BR/>The list is long so I won't bore you with it all!<BR/>I haven't had much success with white chocolate ganache. It was way too sweet and very runny. I am thinking I just don't like white chocolate that much as a ganache.<BR/>RLB's chocolate ganache with the grounded praline added is the best! I still have people tell me how wonderful that ganache was. <BR/>I've never had a curdled ganache with Rose's recipes, so perhaps they ARE foolproof. I tell you, if there is a foolproof loophole...I would find it!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
