Recipe Instructions
This recipe is intended to try swirl technique with sunflower oil and use 31 percent lye:water ratio. The trace slows down very much-- workable-- No butters and no castor oil-- Did I acheive swirl??
No.. I took a light trace for both parts -- one with French Red clay and one plain. When pouring with light trace, both batters got mixed up because both of them were at light trace.
I had two goals to acheive, 1: smooth surface of the sopa, 2: swirl.
Since the trace was taking a longer time, I had to blend for a long time -- and this was a bit frothy-- so I do not think I will have a smooth surface
and again,, since the batter of both parts got mixed up while pouring into the mould, a the batter did not "hold" itself up to form a line.. it was flowing and mixed spread over the layer below and got mixed up
One of the parts should be medium trace to hold the "swirl" line-- 2 lessons learnt
