Interests: Well, clearly my family, cooking, and baking, right? But photography is right up there, too.

Hi Jessica, I have a kitchen scale, so I can measure the weights of the ingredients. Some recipes I use call for weight (especially baking), while others call for teaspoons and cups and so forth.
Florentines (Almond Lace Cookies)
Florentines are crisp, delicate cookies that are pliable when taken from the oven and may be cut with cookie cutters or formed into shapes while they are still pretty hot. They are often used as a garnish, or "crunch component" in plated desserts, and that's what I've used them for in a couple ...
