I have been looking for some time for a recipe for 'pâte sablée' and, finally, accidentally, when looking for something else found yours! but,
1 small bag of vanilla flavoured caster sugar
doesn't tell me how much vanilla flavoured caster sugar. Pleae tell me how much is in one small bag. I live in Burlington, Ontario, Canada
Answer to Daphne
Hello Daphne
In France, such bags of "sucre vanillé" contains approximately 10 grams (1/3 oz) : precisely 7.5 grams. If you cannot find any or if you use it quite often, do it yourself : buy natural vanilla beans for making custard or other desserts and keep the empty beans (you have used the inside seeds for your custard or other desserts) you keep into a closed pot with caster sugar : the beans will flavour the sugar after a few weeks
Thank You!
Thank you for your prompt and helpful response.
I have to tell you, getting a response to my question, from a stranger, so far away - feels like magic!
I'm sitting alone, in front of my computer, grinning, feeling like I just got the best gift ever (your answer/not the computer).
Blushing
Daphne
I am blushing ... fortunately, I am (also) sitting alone in front of my computer in Paris (it is lunchtime and I have no time for lunch today : a shame for a French gastronom !!!).
Just for my information, what kind of pie (or other ?) do you have in mind with your "pâte sablée" ?
FOOD
Give me a recipe from France. I need to do a report. Give me some info about it
