Yeah culinary “authenticity” is a myth literally everywhere. It’s a ridiculous thing to police and there’s no way to even decide how far back to go before some dish counts as “authentic” because people have also always migrated like, everywhere??? I genuinely don’t get the obsession.

Thank you!! ☺️

I do in MD! I don’t put my event schedule on here because most of my followers don’t seem to live nearby. I put it on my IG and TikTok though

Guess I will stick to my aluminum pans and parchment paper!

Oh love it! Will definitely give it a read. I’m also baking so I don’t commit crimes this year after getting fired from my job at NIH

These are beautiful!

I do when making chocolate cake! I add hot coffee to bloom the cocoa powder

That’s awful!! But good for you to figure out what helped

It’s definitely higher quality than Hershey’s or Tollhouse! I’d say it’s in the middle? Definitely more affordable than Callebaut for example

I’m not a recipe account, mine are top secret 🤫 but I share baking tips on this account!

If you love coffee, you’d like it!

I’m so excited to start watching
