    Wow...when I was back in culinary school all those years ago, if I would have done what you called 'folding', I would have been thrown out of school. The same goes for what you call 'tempering'. I know that you did that to speed things up, but at the cost of quality. Folding should be gentle, not heavy handed with a whisk. You deflate your egg whites when you do it that rough. And tempering is when you add some of the warm to some of the cold, then add that mix back to the warm, which helps prevent the eggs from coagulating. I'm sorry to be so picky, but as a professional, quality should be the goal, not quantity. Good technique does not have to be slow.

    I still refuse to accept the fact that the Boston Cream Pie is a Cake... it has Pie in the name! But I digress.... that is a FANTASTIC looking pie! I can't wait to try it out myself!

    I loved watching this put together. I'd like to think I could make it myself. I'm certainly going to try.
