Philosophy... Really?
With last night's class, I realized that I've grown. Just a little deeper than you may think.
We've learned this over and over again. "Don't count your eggs before they hatch".
Last night, I waited for MANY eggs to hatch. I resisted the urge to count them till I could not wait any longer.
So I had 3 bowls in front of me. One for the egg shells, one for the yolks and the third for the whites. And even then I didn't count.
I weighed.
540 gms of yolks and 900 gms of whites for the Sacher Sponge cake.
350 gms of whites for the Butter Cream done the Italian Meringue style.
My thumbs have micro cuts from the egg shells. The pay off? I'm an expert at separating eggs. And the butter cream was heaven on a slice of Génoise layered with raspberry compote.
