The trouble with this slice.
Trouble made a slice yesterday.
Here's the ingredients she used:
a block of dark chocolate
10/12 dried figs finely chopped
two lemon rinds finely chopped
juice of a lemon
two cups of chopped nuts - brazil, walnut, pecan - AND sesame seeds
a handful of dried apricots
apricot nectar
cup buckwheat flour
cup wholemeal flour
cup cornflour
raising agent
enough butter
ginger cordial (equivalent sugar: a tablespoon)
apricot nectar (equivalent sugar: a tablespoon)
two tablespoons of quince paste (equivalent sugar: a tablespoon)
a tablespoon of sugar
The trouble with this slice is that it's so confusing!
It came out very well, sliced up well, was moist and held together perfectly and it tasted vaguely ~yummy~ but it didn't really taste of anything in particular. Mixed fruit and nuts and chocolate. I think the flour mix worked very well so I wouldn't change that but this slice would have been better made in three baking dishes as follows:
1. Lemon, fig and ginger
2. Chocolate, quince and pecan
3. Apricot and walnut
The brazil nuts and sesame belonged in some other Hiking Bar style slice that only those dirty Hinchinbrook girls would eat.
