My Saucy Kitchen

Personal Chef jobs are the best!
We don’t do the typical personal chef jobs, we TEACH while YOU cook/bake!
It’s not about the recipe, it’s all about the technique.
Yesterday we made Fresh turkey sausage ravioli, from scratch gravy & amazing fresh focaccia.
Life is better when you make things yourself and next level when you learn how to make it.
Interested in hiring us to help you learn? DM us to get started!

We’ve been back in the kitchen after a long hiatus..
I’ve learned so much in Pastry school and I hope to continue to share our elevated desserts, breads, chocolate, pastries and more!

I’ve been pretty quiet while in Pastry school but I’m on summer vacation and I’ve tried my hand at Vegan Macarons.
This has taken me all week and many batches to see one batch of success.
I’ll be trying my recipe a few more times before I let it go live with my Summer Flavors.
If you know anyone in the Pasadena and surrounding areas that are Vegan and would like to buy some, share this post.

I’ll make a post in the near future when I go live with the PRICES!

Happy Baking!!

🥖 Bread Baking Thursday :
Soft Dinner rolls made with buckwheat & bread flour
Dill Bread 🤤 this bread has dill seeds & minced dry onion that gives it that amazing flavor profile 😍
The star of the show today was butter.
I have never made homemade butter and I was shocked to see how easy “uncultured” butter (better known as sweet cream butter in the store)is to make.
Heavy whipping cream is all you need! Over whip the butter until the liquid separates and the butter starts to get a yellow hue.
Squeeze as much liquid as you can out of it, then place in an ice bath, so it doesn’t melt, and continue to squeeze!
That’s it.
This butter will last a few days in the fridge but it won’t last that long!
Make compound butters, add the butter to your baked goods, or use to sear meats 🤤
Can’t wait to make a video for you!

class had us baking some interesting whole wheat/multigrain breads tonight 💜

Probably my favorite bread class so far.

I’m also loving how my Nutrition Science (biology) class is actually more interesting because I’m baking bread 🥖 🍞 🤓

When you’re learning about bread.. bread… bread… I’m sure you’ve all made bread at home during the pandemic, but so you understand the process or are you just following a recipe?! 🤔

Once you understand the 12 Steps to bread making, you won’t have to read the recipe for the hundredth time!

Last week we made Pita, Kiser rolls & Pullman loaves. 😍

This week we bake on my birthday 🥳

Unfortunatelly, we are not taking any orders at this time!
I am currently in school full time for Pastry & Baking and Small Business management.
Once we are up and running again, I will post here and let everyone know!!
Can't wait to share with you all the adventures of learning I will experience as I take my baking and pastries to the NEXT level!

Not baking as much as I used to.. but I’m still taking the occasional order!

Returning to school for my baking and pastry degree and hoping to round it out with a business degree as well!

Here’s to a major in the next one to two years!

Excited about the cut you’re off my kitchen!!
