[HIGHLIGHT]I hate to disagree with you[/HIGHLIGHT] but, delicious as it may be to some, that's not real cheesecake! :omg: (Stratty quickly dons flak jacket)

No, real cheesecake, as far as I'm concerned, was what you used to be able to buy in most coffee shops in and around central London in the 60's and 70's (and possibly to this day, I wouldn't know, you certainly don't see it where I'm living now unfortunately). There were no nuts in the topping, or any berries in the pastry on the bottom or any other 'frills' to it, simply a thin, faintly lemony crust over a thick, creamy, dense body with the odd sultana lurking within.

th


Not exactly what I'm talking about, but close.

I know that compared to what we see in your example what I have described may sound boring, but the taste...

I'll say no more!

Yep, I know the one ... I make it the "Polish way" without any base at all sometimes (I haven't for a while though so I'll have to search for the recipe if anyone wants it) ... I just use baking paper so it doesn't stick to the tin while baking.

The base is usually made with scrunched up biscuits (too sweet for me).

To get the consistency right (your jaws are virtually glued together if it's made correctly) the recipe should contain cream cheese (Philadelphia works well) and needs to have around a tablespoon of cornflour in it, that is the secret of the European cheesecake, also it's best if left for 24 hours in the fridge before cutting ... the lighter, fluffy one is [HIGHLIGHT]American and is [STRIKE]sickly, revolting slop[/HIGHLIGHT][/STRIKE] not to my liking.


:hide:


Well excuse the fuck out of me for liking a cheesecake neither of you have tried. And what's with all things American being crapped on here? The last 4th of July. Shit on with drama. Remembering 9/11? Shit on with conspiracy bullshit. I went to go hang out on the Gratitude thread. Even that was shit on. Just too many assholes and $cientologists worth being here.

We need to start a "Cheesecakes explained" thread! A quiet place where domestic goddesses, aspiring domestic goddesses - and others - can sit down and get into some serious meaningful discussions about the cheesecake.

My feelings/taste-buds on "the cheesecake" are highly developed, based on years of people serving me over-sweet sickly stuff that numbs my taste-buds and ruins the flavours of any other ingredients. A decent cheesecake has a good balance of sweet/tang/creaminess, plus the flavours of the "dominant" theme i.e. lemon, fruit, chocolate, etc. Imo. I could be wrong and it could be that my taste-buds are in a whole little world of their own. :eyeroll:

I am longing to start discussing the "art of making perfect shortbread" but don't want to push the envelope too far. Shortbread seems to be a highly contentious issue based upon the recent "research" I have done. Don't ask. :)


I'm in (if "assholes" are allowed).

:biggrin:

Free Being Me may not be ... I think he's having a SOH meltdown instead.

It's okay FBM. You are meant to experience this. All is right with the universe. :yes:


( Yeah....I know that's a crock o' shit. Sounds all "higher purpose" and new agey though....don't it?)

Did someone say Cheese? :biggrin:

Leon's thread seems to be going pretty much as I expected!
Good old ESMB, you can always rely on it to do the usual. :hysterical:
Happy New year and God Bless you all! :)

I've heard cheesecake made with organic cheese is quite tasty. :biggrin:

Thanks Cats.

Yes, that looks very similar, except I use cornflour now instead of normal flour (it seems to make it firmer) and I omit the base and the topping (less fat and sugar) and add just a few sultanas.

Diamond Invictus SP
I'm cross-posting something from Gib on another thread as this thread seems to be a good home for it. :coolwink:

The emeter is supposed to detect PTS/SP from the very beginning.

How on earth, if somebody who got auditing to OT8 and done the L's all of the sudden become PTS/SP?


Anyone want to provide an explanation for this?

Will you marry me?

Edit: Or failing that please post your recipe.

Edit to the edit: You had it right the first time, it's sickly revolting slop!

Re: Experimentation

It is a huge difference between people, who have been lied to and brought to a delusional state of mind by those lies, that are duped into being experimental participants than people wanting to try out some experiments on others who want to try out some experiments.

By that set of criteria, all religions, new age practices and a few other things would be suspect.

Ahem!

Oops, failed to notice the 'and others'. Great idea sally!
 
In faith healing the guy just sits and "gets healed" by Jesus or whoever. He is there purely as the recipient of the grace that will be bestowed on him.

In Scientology, by complete contrast, the person is the agent and source of his own betterment.

I reckon that qualifies as a difference.


putting a bit more god into it is a favored tactic in these environs

"god helps those who help themselves"
