And some cakes require you to beat the egg yolks and whites separately like the opera cake. Believe me, it's simple as long as you learned from previous trials, I became patient, but one thing I left is the decoration; However, I will make it a goal to start practicing soon. I have many memories with pastries. If you like to prepare cake dough using a stand mixer, for pastries you will at some point have to use your hands to check its stiffness or softness. At first I threw away the dough because I couldn't achieve the consistency. Then, as a precaution, I took the measurements, two tablespoons of yeast and sugar and added ¾ of water suitable for two cups of flour, wait for 10 minutes until it rises. Then, mix in flour and oil, gradually adding half a cup of water until two cups of flour are mixed very well. Once the dough has been prepared, you need to let it activate the yeast, which will help it rise, and even after you have rolled it out to your liking, you need to leave it for a little longer.Lentil soupIngredientsLentils, rinsed, drained, chopped
