hi I'm gonna be making shortbread on lo gourmet TV today very simple set of
ingredients got some butter room temperature and then comes the tough
part cuz now I have to beat the butter with a wooden spoon cream it up now add
some fruit sugar some rice flour and now we're going to add the regular flour and
we're gonna add it we're gonna continue stirring it pretty much until you can't
stir it anymore so get your arms ready
I'm gonna start with a cup
I can still start let me out about a half a cup at a time
okay Lots different so I'm gonna add even just a little bit less okay I think
that's it that's all I'm gonna be able to add so got some flour down basically
gonna need our shortbread still incorporating flour and we're going to
continue incorporating flour into the dough until it gets to a consistency
where it is dried and cracking so as I knead it it kind of starts to crack and
the dried kind of way I think that's what we're looking for we're gonna roll
it shape it into a ball oh well like wrap it and put it in the fridge for 30
minutes all right so 30 minutes in the fridge
I'm cutting my dough in half you can do this a variety of ways you can roll it
out in traditional cookie style and cut them into traditional cookie shapes I'm
going with the way my grandmother always made it flatten it out to a size that's
roughly a centimeter and a half centimeter thick I need to give them a
little bit of a pressing with a fork I will pop them into the oven
there you go so after about 30 minutes or so our
cookies are ready they have a nice golden color now they need to sit for 10
minutes so after 10 minutes your cookies are cooled and you're ready to slice
them and put them on to your cooling rack you can slice them using a large
knife I happen to like the pizza cutter which is why put my lines in that way
earlier
as always the recipe is available on lo gourmet TV once they're cooled enjoy
them with a cup of tea thanks for stopping by
you
