peaceful but first
Be it bacon or any type of cooking always pays off to use the best ingredients you can find
And you're never too old to learn from the experts
Next my shopping guide to getting the best milk and cream
When it comes to name what makes great quality milk dairy farmer charlie ray is your man
He's been producing milk from his herd of hand read specialist breed jersey cattleman for over thirty years
Yeah that part of the family almost so he's up these well easing the stuff
Jersey milk is very high butter fat
Which therefore means it is very creamy very creamy to drink, and it's the best quality milk. You'll get anywhere
Jersey cows have very docile very friendly very easy to manage and this is my favorite
She's about 17 years old
She's called misty if you think of the large Arctic milk tank as you see going up and down the motorways
She's filled one and a half of those on her own
I
Reckon these are happy cows they've got a draw roof over their heads
They've got a dry bed, and they've got as much food as they want
The happier they are and the better kept they are the better the quality of the milk that comes out the other end
This is what's called an a breast milking parlor?
Gordon found the other way
And it suits us in as much as we've got contact with the cows we can treat each cow
Individually the milk goes up through a mate up into that line throw a big filter and into the tank
There you are without this product you wouldn't have
chocolate cheese
Yogurts it's the base ingredient in so many things that you buy and totally take for granted
And where there's milk there's also glorious cream essential for brilliant bacon and lots of savory dishes, too
Single cream is around 18 percent fat, so is the liner option for topping desserts or stirring in to save resources
Whereas double cream at nearly?
50% fat is lovely and rich in Panna cottas or in a carbonara sauce as well as being able to withstand boiling whipping and freezing
Sour cream salad with a similar culture to that used in yogurt is a really tasty topping for chilies or baked potatoes
clotted cream rich thick and a delicious indulgence served with puddings and scones or in ice cream to make it extra rich and
Mascarpone actually a creamy soft Italian cheese famously used in the Italian dessert tiramisu it's also fantastic in cheesecakes
There is countable life
In great bacon as with all cooking sometimes less is more
The easiest issues look and taste spectacular when they're done well
Wonderful baked cheesecake for me food always has to be impressive, but when it comes to desserts
Often you see spun sugar or wall decorations
Remember simple is always the most impressive this cheesecake is so straightforward yet, so delicious
Mouth cream cheese leave it at the fridge for five or ten minutes. They're nice and soft trust me your arms will be thanking you
Sugar in this cheesecake is the New York cheesecake because of bait says no base start creaming the cheese and the sugar
Spending the amount of time I do in the States if there's one thing. They know how to do out
There is the most amazing impressive cheesecake, rich delicious, but so simple work the vault

Now I want to send a cheesecake
Over the freshness zest for the lemon in there
I want to sort of tart it up
Even more fold in some fresh raspberries so just mix them through be careful to crush them
Then grease the cake tin with butter this will ensure your cheesecake slides out beautifully
Get your mix
Let that fall in
Now take your cake tin and just
Tap it
mixture hits the bottom of the Katyn
The raspberries rise and you've got raspberries at the top the middle in the bottom
It also stops all those little pockets of air trapping underneath the mixture from the cake tin
There's no holes in the cheesecake now into the oven 180 degrees for 35 to 40 minutes
He's slightly souffle DUP
Pull off
That's the color I wanted on top and look at it
It's one of the simplest yet the most stylish cheesecakes anyway

Next my tricks of the trade and kitchen tips
Kicking off with how to handle pastry lightly flour the surface
pastry on top
Rolling pin now the secret now is don't
Overwork the pastry firm push turn the pastry around and this
Helps to even the pastry turn
And roll now as it starts to crack. Don't worry. Just by pushing it back together
It's sort of unites the pastry immediately apply pressure
Turn the pastry now the average thickness is down to a one pound coin
Back on to the rolling pin and look
beautiful
For the neatest edge on tarts and quiches
My tip is to let the pastry hang over the side of the tin when you bake it
Trim around the edge once the pastry is cooked it will give you a cleaner edge and prevent it from shrinking
My tip for even rising is the place take some tasks in the center of the oven so the air can circulate
All the way around them
Test your cake to make sure it's done insert a knife
Skewer or even a piece of spaghetti in the center if there's mixture stuck to it
It's not done yet if it comes out clean your cakes ready
If you don't have any baking beans to hand for blind baking you can use any rice grain or pulse
You won't be able to cook with them afterwards, but do keep them to reuse them next time
When you're folding egg whites on whipped cream into cake mixtures you want to retain as much air in the mixture as you can
My tip use a metal spoon as the sharp thin edge will keep more of the air in
