Two days ago I had a slice of the most amazing lemon & almond cake – moist, delicious, so here begins my search to recreate it. Luckily there were a lot of great recipes on the web, my main source was:
http://lucullian.blogspot.com/2006/02/almond-and-ricotta-cake-gluten-free.html
2 duck eggs (or 3 chooken eggs)
2/3 cup sugar
100 g almonds put through the blender until fine
75 g salted butter, melted
125 g oz ricotta
zest and rind of 1 lemon (or two if you like it really strongly lemony)
100mL flour
-Whisk eggs and sugar until smooth, add the ground almonds then butter.
– Break up ricotta and add, beat. When the batter is smooth, beat in the flour.
– Pour it into a round 20cm springform cake tin and bake it in a pre-heated oven (180° C) 30 minutes.
I think I baked mine a little too long (as I added an extra 10 mins, but this is probably also because I can’t justify to myself heating up the whole oven for one little cake so I just do it on the oven setting on our microwave. Next time I will probably make a little syrup with grated rind of a lemon maybe 50g sugar, 20mL water, then add the lemon juice when it has boiled, prick the warm cake all over & pour over the syrup before taking it out of the tin.

Everything said was very reasonable. However, what about this? suppose you wrote a catchier title? I ain’t saying your content isn’t good, however suppose you added a headline that grabbed a person’s attention? I mean %BLOG_TITLE% is a little boring. You should glance at Yahoo’s home page and note how they write news titles to grab viewers interested. You might try adding a video or a picture or two to grab people interested about what you’ve got to say. In my opinion, it might bring your posts a little livelier.

Heya! I just wanted to ask if you ever have any issues with hackers? My last blog (wordpress) was hacked and I ended up losing months of hard work due to no backup. Do you have any methods to prevent hackers?
It’s in fact very complex in this active life to listen news on TV, therefore I simply use world wide web for that reason, and obtain the newest news.
