After writing yesterday's post about the make-along I made a cheesecake. It was about 1 am when it was done but still had to set, so I couldn't try it until this morning. Oh the anticipation!
It's my best cheesecake yet! Which isn't really saying much because I only really remember baking one other one, but it is saying ... something.
It's Lemon Ginger Cheesecake. I put a little less ginger than they called for on the topping since I'm not a big ginger fan (it reminds me of being woozy on long car rides) so it came out gingery, but fortunately not too overpowering.
It was a lovely day today so we went into the city centre where we saw some Japanese tourists taking lots of photos of fancy cars. You know, like you do.
Proof that it was so warm that I took my coat off, that I wore my scarf out, and that I pet a metal pig:
And look! People lounging on Calton Hill.
cheesecake! in theory it sounds good--lemon ginger, but ginger (like you mentioned) makes me think of being queasy with morning sickness!
ReplyDeleteThe cheesecake looks delicious - I've always wanted to make one...
ReplyDeleteCheesecake! My husband loves them! Must make another one soon, and this one looks really good.
ReplyDeleteKate - Ya, I could live without those food-related flashbacks too.
ReplyDeleteJeanne - You should make one, even if it breaks in the middle, etc, it will most likely still taste good!
Thanks Worsted!
I would love a piece of that for breakfast this morning with a cup of coffee. The coffee I have, alas the cheesecake....no. Although there is talk of stopping at the Whole Foods to get some vegan cheesecake(the only REALLY good one I have tasted) later today. I am keeping my fingers crossed that happens.
ReplyDeleteYour post was very nicely written. I’ll be back in the future for sure!
