I've made this to fill some gluten free pastry cases and make chocolate tarts. They are really tasty and I'm very impressed. However, I'm wondering if the ganache needs to be kept refrigerated? I may try and sell some on a market stall and was wondering if it would be alright at room temperature for the day?

Owner's reply

So glad the ganache worked out for you janiehee! The ganache should be fine for a few days unrefrigerated at normal room temperature, but if left out longer than that, I would think the worst that could happen is that some fermentation could occur due to the presence of sugar and starches. It should be about the same storage conditions as traditional ganache: The lower the cream content, the longer the shelf life.

"Best whole wheat sandwich bread I've made, vegan or not. It slices very thin workout crumbling or being overly crusty. I added about 1 tbsp gluten to the dry flour."

"These cookies made a mess! The cookie batter was way too soopy. I had to redo the chocolate and it still barely made the amount needed for 25 cookies (and did not look like icing). The actual plain cookie tasted disgusting. I do not recommend attempting to make this recipe."

"This is my favorite bread recipe, so far, and the only one I've wanted to try several times to get just right. The flavor is SO GOOD, and it's the fluffiest bread I've made. I do have to proof my batches much longer than the recipe states, which is a little odd because I'm in the south and I keep my house pretty warm. I do the cold proof and, after waiting 4-5 hours for it to reach room temp, it takes about 2 hours after stirring to double in size. I still haven't gotten a great proof - I'm in the process of my third try and it's been proofing almost 90 minutes and it still isn't at 80-90% and I'm not sure why. I'm a novice baker so I imagine there's an obvious..."

Chickpea Flour - The Underrated Egg Replacer

"Thank for your clear, useful article. I used chickpea flour to substitute for eggs in a Pumpkin Pie recipe. It worked very well. Adds a nice creamy texture. When baked I did not notice any negative taste from the chickpea flour. I found that chickpea flour is a better thickener than ground flaxseeds. "
