Bought a bag of cornflour that I think must be similar to what you used and will try these again. It is a lot yellower anyway, closer in colour to polenta. I grew up eating sablés at christmas (French heritage) and would really miss them. <BR/><BR/>But the stuff I used before 250 grams was closer to 2 cups than one, cornstarch being so light per unit of volume must be the reason. I imagine 250 grams of the new one will be around a cup.Kittyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02119787580734525939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31788306.post-13584559397388815142008-11-10T12:27:00.000-08:002008-11-10T12:27:00.000-08:00The recipe is adapted from a french one so even th...The recipe is adapted from a french one so even though 1 cup is approximately 250g it works just fine.<BR/>Also you can adjust the quantities for sugar and oil. My husband likes these sables a little bit sweeter...So sometimes I add 1 tbsp more sugar and 1 tbsp less oil.<BR/>It's cornflour not cornstarch! Your flower has to be yellowish. Cornflour has a corn taste and scent with a hint of sweetness. If you can't find regular cornflour you can make your own by grinding some polenta or corn meal in a coffee grinding or a blender.Zenseerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13899878491033523767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31788306.post-78093096238602108452008-11-09T12:27:00.000-08:002008-11-09T12:27:00.000-08:00Is it 1 cup cornflour or 250 grams, because 250 gr...Is it 1 cup cornflour or 250 grams, because 250 grams of cornflour is more than a cup.<BR/>Do you use a specific type of cornflour, I made these with the cornflour I usually use and they came out tasting terrible, rubbery and plastic like and the dough was very strange, even for gluten free, completely un workable. <BR/>Any tips? beacause I love sablés with a passion...Kittyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02119787580734525939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31788306.post-90373042383509857882008-06-15T20:48:00.000-07:002008-06-15T20:48:00.000-07:00They're pretty good and don't require too many ing...They're pretty good and don't require too many ingedients nor much prep.<BR/>You won't be disappointed...<BR/>I just made another batch today adding extra cinnamon powder...They came out even better ;).Zenseerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13899878491033523767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31788306.post-73822588749072358892008-06-13T22:46:00.000-07:002008-06-13T22:46:00.000-07:00YUMMMMO!!i'm making those !YUMMMMO!!<BR/>i'm making those !Darcey Bluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14590696744520619452noreply@blogger.com
