I found a recipe, and I've deciphered most, mainly through google translate, or an iPhone app, however, there are a few things that I'm still confused about, maybe someone out there can help.
The recipe calls for 100 grams of Speisestaerk, which from my understanding translates to starch? Please correct me if I'm wrong, but if its right, what kind of starch are we talking about? Is starch another term for shortening?
Thanks in Advance.
Thanks, I found the corn starch part. The abbreviations also are written in (gr.). I assumed this to be grams, but, I've known it to be the abbreviation for grains, however, when looking at the total recipe (its for a cake) 400 grains of flour with 4 eggs doesn't make sense...so I'm assuming that (gr.) is grams. Please correct me if I'm wrong on that too.
