#20Timeupdate3
I'm taking a Spanish class, so I have to look up different Spanish recipes. I have been looking at different ones for a while now and so far I have learned that people in Spain use a lot of alcohol, so I can't cook much of anything even though I have also learned that the alcohol content cooks out of the food. Which is a good thing, so people don't get crazy. I've learned that even though it's strange for some people to cook with it a splash of alcohol can make your food taste just a little bit better. It brings out the flavors in your food, and gives a great accent or zing to what you're cooking. I also didn't know that a brushing of Vodka on certain cakes can keep it moist longer, cause nobody likes dry cake. It also adds a little bit of flavor to any cake with fruit in it like key lime cake, because Vodka accents the flavors of lime. They compliment each other I guess you could say. That is what I've learned over the past couple weeks, and I'm still working on my technique for fondant which is getting better. That's my update, so stay tuned for even more tricks that i learn through out my journey into the world of culinary arts.
