先日、モデムの到着を待ちながらドイツのクリスマスクッキーを焼きました。去年は
1、
2、
3回に分けてダラダラと作りましたが今年は生地作り日、型抜き+焼き日と2日間集中型。いままで避けて来た2色クッキーもどうにか許されるクオリティーに仕上がったと思います。
クリスマスツリー型クッキーも作る予定でしたが面倒になったので来年に延期。去年
クオカで買った100個入り
シリカゲル、今年も使おうと思ったら青い粒が紫に変わっていて、使い物になりませんというサインが出てました。保存方法が悪かったようです。ガッカリ。
The other day, when I was waiting for the modem, I baked German Christmas cookies. Last year I baked
1,
2,
3 times. But this year I did everything at once. I made dough on the first day and shaped and baked on the second day (and it was less than last year). I expected 2-colour cookies to be very difficult but they look quite good. I was planning to build a
Christmas tree with cookies, but I postponed that to next Christmas! I couldn't be bothered. I bought 100 little packets of
silica gel (desiccant) from
Cuoca (Japanese only) but it seems like I didn't make them air-tight enough and they turned from blue to purple. I can't use them anymore.
