  • In readiness for Forsaken shores why not make your own volcano cake!!

    Volcano Cake

    To make this erupting volcano cake you will need

    Equipment:

    • 200mL (6.76 fluid ounces) syringe tube
    • empty soda bottle
    • drill
    • dry ice
    • cake board
    • aluminum foil to cover the board

    Vanilla Cake:

    Make the quantity below twice (if you have huge commercial mixer – then you can make it all at once. But if you’re like me with a normal sized mixer it won’t all fit in the bowl).

    • 450g (15.87 ounces) or 2 3/4 cups plain or all purpose flour
    • 2 1/2 tsp baking powder
    • 620g (21.87 ounces) or 2 3/4 cups sugar
    • 1 tsp salt
    • 225g (7.94 ounces) or 1 cup butter or margarine
    • 1 1/2 tablespoons vanilla extract
    • 250g (8.82 ounces) or 7 egg whites or (you can use the egg yolks in ice-cream or chocolate cremeux)
    • 340g (11.99 ounces) or 1 1/3 cups milk
    • 30g (1.06 ounces) or 3 tablespoons of oil

    Put the flour, baking powder, sugar, salt and butter into the bowl of an electric mixer and mix until it resembles wet sand. In a seperate bowl whisk together the vanilla, egg whites, milk and oil. Then add 1/3 of this mixture in with the flour mixture and whisk until it forms a paste. Add the remaining milk mixture and whisk on high speed for 5 minutes.

    Pour most of it into 2 x 8″ round cake tins, colour the remaining bit with orange or red food colour and drizzle over the top of the cake. Give it a slight swirl then bake at 180C (356 degrees Fahrenheit) until a knife inserted into the centre comes out clean. Approx 40 minutes.

    Make another batch in the same manner and bake one half in an 8″ cake tin and the other in a rounded oven-proof bowl.

    Frosting & Decoration:

    • A double batch of vanilla buttercream
    • A double quantity of chocolate buttercream, I added a little black food coloring to make it a bit more dirt coloured.
    • 1/3 of a packet of Plain biscuits like nice biscuits or graham crack.er.s. and green food coloring

    Caramel Lava:

    • 3 cups sugar
    • 1 cup or 250mL (8.45 fluid ounces) water
    • 40g (1.41 ounces) or 2 tablespoons glucose syrup
    • 1/4 tsp cream of tartar or tartaric acid
    • 159g (5.61 ounces) or 2/3 cup cream
    • orange food coloring

    Heat the sugar, glucose syrup, water and cream of tartar in a pan stirring until the sugar is dissolved. Wash down the sides of the pan using a wet pastry brush to get rid of any sugar crystals. Heat unstirred on high heat until it reaches 135C (275 degrees Fahrenheit) or makes semi firm strands when drizzled in water (see video).

    Add the cream and stir until you have a homogenous mixture then again heat unstirred until it reaches 110C (230 degrees Fahrenheit) or has a thick consistency when dropped into a cup of water.

    Pour into a heat proof dish, colour as desired (stir until just mixed in do not over-agitate or it may encourage crystallization) and leave to cool completely.

    Tip: To clean you pan just fill to the brim with warm water and leave in the sink for several hours, the sugar will dissolve.

    OR Ganache Lava:

    • 300g (10.58 ounces) white chocolate broken into squares
    • 120mL (4.06 fluid ounces) or 1/2 cup cream, warmed in the microwave.
    • Orange food colouring

    Heat the chocolate until it is melted.
    Stir in the warmed cream.

    Allow to cool to room temperature. If you put this in the fridge it will set too firm. If that happens just microwave a few spoonfuls of it and then mix it in with the rest.

    Assembly

    See the video for detailed assembly instructions and demonstration.

    Ramen egg
    Kimchi
    Toasted nori sheets
    Shichimi, 7 spices

    Instructions


    In a large pot, add all ingredients for the borsht accept sake and chicken breast. Cover, bring it to boil and reduce heat to medium and simmer for 30 minutes.

    Minutes later, add the chicken breast and the sake into the pot, cover and let it simmer additional 20 to 25 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked.

    Meanwhile, let’s make the flavored oil and the spicy miso tare!
    In a sauce pan, combine all the ingredients for the flavored oil and let it infuse the flavors over low heat for 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool.

    In another sauce pan, combine all the ingredients for the spicy miso tare and whisk until smooth. Bring it to boil over medium high heat and let it keep boil for 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.

    Now, remove chicken from the pot along with the shiitake mushrooms. Make sure squeeze the shiitake because it soaks up lots of broth. Turn off the heat and remove all the solid ingredients from the broth as well. Remove big chunky stuff with tongs first then using a small strainer and take every small bits for nice and clean ramen broth!

    Let the chicken and shiitake cool (enough to handle with your hands) then slice the shiitake thinly and shred the chicken into bite sizes.

    Drain the flavored oil into a separate bowl and set the clean oil aside. Those chunky stuff left from the flavored oil, add into the chicken and shriitake. Make sure get rid of the big chunk of ginger and garlic pieces though. Also add 2 Tbsp soy sauce, 1 Tbsp sugar and ¼ tsp black pepper into the chicken. Mix everything together and set aside.

    When you are ready to serve the ramen, bring a pot of water to boil to cook ramen noodles and bring the broth to boil. Cook the ramen noodles by following the package you’re using. Drain completely.

    In a serving bowl, add ¼ cup of spicy miso tare, 1 Tbsp flavored oil and 2 cups of boiling hot broth. Add the cooked noodles into the bowl and stir- so the noodles will coated evenly with the broth.

    Arrange kimchi, chicken mixture, chopped green onion, ramen egg and nori. If you like to, sprinkle some shichimi. Serve immodestly and enjoy!
