    I had to look up what kouign amann pastries were. They don't sound or look like they would disappoint! Nicely done!

    Thanks all. I feel the kouign amanns were as good as a convection oven would do. The palmers need another attempt with lower temps.
    Next will be attempting a French macaron.

    Thanks,
    The macaron is something I put a lot of time to make perfect. Here are a few in boxes. I don't typical box them but I buy macarons from pastry shops (to sample) and keep the boxes.

    Seriously. I want to cook with you. 

    OK, I really just want to be nearby when you cook so I can eat some of this stuff.

    Being single and no kids, my neighbors are well fed. One gets whole pigs and bisons butchered and gives me big roasts for free to say thanks.
