Cooking
The honey and melt the butter.
Add the baking soda. Mix well. The mass will start to increase, it will become a lush.
To gain spices: cinnamon, ground ginger, cloves, sweet peas, cardamom.
Add spices to honey and butter. Add the orange peel. Mix well.
The recipe I use cheese "belebeyevskaya" Belebeevsky from MK.
Add the sifted flour (add the flour in parts, look at the dough consistency, the dough should not be very steep, dense, it will take the density when you lie down in the cold), icing sugar. Mix well. Add grated on a fine grater cheese "experts". If someone wants to make cakes without cheese, the amount of flour needs to be increased to 250 gr.
Knead the dough. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for a day.
Roll out the dough (thickness about 0.8 cm) to cut out circles of the necessary diameter. Bake in pre-heated to 190 gr oven for about 7-8 minutes. The gingerbread is Golden, when gently pressing on them, your finger should not leave a mark. Remove the cakes from the oven and immediately to make a hole in them with a skewer. Then, when the stick will be painted in these holes to insert decorative tape to stick a piece of paper with a prediction or a wish. To rest the gingerbread day, otherwise when applying the icing or cracking, they can be deformed. On the first day gingerbread breathing taking its shape.
Prepare craquelure. Corn starch to combine with the liquid white food coloring. If you dye dry, dilute it slightly with water and add to the starch. Potato starch for cracking will not work (!!!), only CORN.
The mixture should be thick like sour cream, but well smeared brush.
Apply craquelure on gingerbread with a brush not very thick.
Krakelyurnogo mesh will begin to appear on the eyes, to speed up the process, soak over the cakes included a Hairdryer.
The icing Eddie Spence - Eisenhower king. Protein to combine with the icing sugar very finely ground (pre-sifted through a very fine sieve), add 2-3 drops of lemon juice. Beat with a mixer on the lowest speed until soft peak. This is the icing for outlines and thin lines for small parts. For filling add the icing several. drops of water to make it more liquid. If you draw on the surface with a knife and count to 10, then for 10 seconds the surface of the icing will become smooth. It's the perfect icing to fill.
The icing divided into several parts, each dye food coloring in the desired color and begin painting. Good luck and happy new year!!!
