A few weeks ago, I attended an online cooking session with 3rd generation Australian winemaker, Justin Taylor of Wakefield Wines and Sydney-based chef Guy Turland of Bondi Harvest. In this session, we learned about Wakefield’s Estate Shiraz and reserved oak barreling while making Guy’s Self Saucing Chocolate Pudding.
To be perfectly honest, I had many doubts about this recipe as it was being made because it required you to dump a bunch of water on top of your batter and bake. For the first 25 minutes of baking, my anxiety was through the roof as I watched my weird watery concoction rise in the oven. Thankfully, it turned out delicious!
Moral of the story: it will all works out. Trust.
Hope you enjoy my recipe!
