Looks good!
I have just received this postcard from my French teacher.
The hint is not a subtle one!
I think he wants me to make this cake for our first lesson in a couple of weeks…. he will argue that making a cake from a French recipe is good for my comprehension.
He may be right though, as I am struggling with the word ‘un bourrelet’… any ideas ?
Take-the-hint
Is he thinking of his stomach…just a little?
According to my LaRousse ‘un bourrelet’ can mean a ‘weather strip’ or ‘draft excluder’, a ‘fold of fat’ or ‘roll of flesh’ – so you can take your pick for the Gateau Basque!
