Any Home Bakers Here?

Does anyone have like the best cookie recipe that someone would pay good money for? All my cookies turn out bad lol

Are you using margarine or melted butter? That is a cookie killer.
The best way to make cookies is to cream the butter and sugars together before adding the other ingredients. Also, do not over mix.
If none of that has gone wrong, I’m going to blame the oven.

Melted butter, but I so cream the butter and sugars. Probably the oven because it has a history of burning things, including me..

I have experienced this problem a couple times before, usually the instructions I gave you are enough to fix it. If not, then there may be another issue that I don’t know about.

I’m glad you were able to get back on, though.

Sushi rice:

Forewarning, this uses multiple ingredient measuring systems.

Ingredients:
4 US cups rice
1.1L water

Rice Seasoning
100ml rice vinegar
60g sugar
20g salt

Tezu (to put on your hands to prevent rice from sticking to you)
2 1/2 cups water
1/4 cup vinegar

Directions:

Add rice to rice cooker, and rinse with water, draining off all the water afterwards. Repeat the rinsing step one more time. Drain off all the water.

Add 1.1 L of water to the rice cooker. Steam the rice.

Meanwhile, combine rice wine, sugar, and salt to make the seasoning for the rice. It doesn’t matter if it dissolves completely, just make sure that most of it is dissolved.

After rice is done cooking, take it out of the rice cooker and put on a cookie sheet. Make sure the rice is in a thin even layer. Fan the rice to cool it to room temperature.

Once the rice is relatively cool, cut with the rice spatula and mix in the rice seasoning. You don’t want to smash the rice, just toss it together with the seasoning until it’s thoroughly mixed in.

Rice is now ready to use for sushi. However, it will be very sticky. To avoid it sticking to your hands or utensils, dip your hands or utensils into tezu, the recipe is above. Use it sparingly. A little bit will prevent the rice from sticking to your hands.

Recipes for sushi toppings and fillings will be in a later post.

Nigiri style sushi

Sushi rice(recipe on post 61899)
Nigiri Shrimp
Salmon sashimi,
Tuna sashimi
Tamagoyaki (rolled egg recipe)

Directions:

Dip hands in tezu before handling rice.

Take a little Sushi rice and roll it in your hand until it is a log shape about 3 finger widths long. Flatten the top and ends.

Top with any of the above toppings. If you top with Tamagoyaki, wrap a thin strip of nori seaweed around it to prevent it from falling off.
