Back with Baking ... says ... finally


hello peeps !
i'm .. finally back ....er..
back with a decent blog entry with my baking creation !

wanna say a BIG THANK YOU to readers who did not abandoned this space of mine !
and also those who are awaiting for my baking entries too ! xoxo

alright
i shall proudly present this humble work of mine again :)

First
let's check out the
ingredients needed ..


self raising flour
baking powder
1 egg
butter ( room temperature )
milk
sugar
salt
black peppercorns
parsley flakes
italian seasonings
garlic
white button mushrooms
tomatoes
asparagus
danish blue cheese



a little .. bit .. about danish blue cheese


Danish blue cheese , also known as Danablu . Made in denmark . its light blue-veined cheese, This semi-soft creamery cheese is typically drum or block shaped and has a white to yellowish, slightly moist, edible rind. Made from cow's milk

Danish Blue is often served crumbled on salads or as a dessert cheese with fruit,
but the Danish way of eating it is on bread or biscuits.

For me i gonna experiment it differently today ..

to kick start

make the tart crust !

In a large bowl , combine butter , eggs , flour , sugar , salt and mix thoroughly ..
gather the dough into a ball , if dough is too crumbly ,
add some
ice water by drops until the particles adhere .
dust the pastry dough with a little flour .
Refrigerate for at least
half four before baking .

pour olive oil into heated pan
while heating up
fry the chopped garlic

add the chopped white button mushrooms and stir fry with salt , peppercorn
parsley flakes and italian seasonings



last but not least add some milk and let it simmers for about 5 more minutes


lightly grease the tart pan before placing the dough ..
Center the dough in the tart pan, if necessary, trim the excess dough, then pinch the edges of the dough flat with the edge of the tart pan.

as i will be baking this as unfilled crust, use a fork to puncture the doughs in all areas, so it doesn't puff up while baking.


place the cooked mushrooms and sprinkle danish blue cheese on top


preheat the oven to 180 degree to 200 degree and bake for 20 - 25 mins
once baked , leave it to cool for about 10 mins


hot hot hot !
freshly baked whhoohoo !


dressing up my dish does give me another satisfaction !
