When ever you open a magazine, a blog or watch so many tv shows dedicated to the gastronomy world there is no place for mistakes.How many times did those people do all the recipes that they show? Do they always get right from the beginning?
I doubt it! I'm saying that because when I was is pastry school my teachers made sure to tell us we were going to make a lot of mistakes until we got it right.
Now I complete saying that even if you got it right still there is a chance for you to make some mistake in the future... Today I tried to make choux pastry and it was a disaster.
I think I can kind of blame it the conversion (grams to ounces and celsius to fahrenheit) and the absence of a scale. But the fact is that I came out with a watery pastry that made me want to never bake again.
Of course that's not going to happen and as soon as I got all figure out I'll post the recipe over here.
Just to conclude: I think we make mistakes to keep going and appreciate when it goes right. In a weird way is to make it even better when you taste your success.
And now I'm hungry and without desert...
