Fran Costigan - Oat or Almond Milk... Cocoa, Raw or Black?
RecordedThis event was on March 11, 2020
The secret sauce of unapologetically delicious, reliable desserts is recipe development and testing-testing-testing. Join Vegan Pastry Master Fran Costigan for an exploration of all the ways you can make your recipes better. Start with a reliable recipe from a trusted source. Then test to see if different plant milks, sweeteners, even the fat content in different cocoa powders and strengths of batches of agar powder matter. Sifting, grinding, kind of electric appliance or hand mix? It can feel endless. But the process is always rewarding and interesting. How far are you ready to go to refine your recipes?
