Hi Jackie -

sorry. I made the mistake of not editing more carefully the version on the blog post. The actual printable recipe was properly edited, but the recipe on the page was not. I apologize. It should all be fixed now. The vanilla bean pod, the empty one, helps infuse some vanilla bean specks in the syrup. I corrected the orange juice (it's just water) and it should be all correct now. Thanks for catching!

Hi Joanne

I'm a little confused in the directions for this cake. For the cake batter when is the buttermilk incorporated into the batter. Also, in your headnotes you mentioned that vanilla bean specks is in the cake batter and syrup glaze, but there is no mention of vanilla beans in the ingredient's list for the syrup glaze,also in the directions for the syrup glaze you mention orange juice but there is no orange juice in the list only water.

Ahh! I get it now. :)

I'm going to curse my local middle-of-nowhere shopping establishments and then order the freeze dried peaches.

The store did have freeze dried strawberries, go figure. I'm now feeling inspired to try a strawberry variation of your recipe.... Hmmm...

Thanks for your help!

You know how they say you can never kill ivy? I've killed it. That's how bad my gardening skills are. LOL I should just come care for your ivy for a few days, then you'd never have to worry about it again. ;)

I'm so happy to stumble upon your space and seeing this recipe: I'm all excited. I'm one of those bundt cake fanatics...so imagine how excited I’d be to see someone blogging about this!. Love the dish totally.

2012-05-14T23:20:07.121-07:00

dried peaches will not work, as this is FREEZE dried peaches that are used in this recipe. They can pulverize into a powder, while dried peaches cannot.

I've seen the freeze dried peaches at Whole Foods as well.

2012-05-14T23:17:14.437-07:00

not sure how persimmons would work out, as the texture is a bit different. And baked, would the flavor even stand up? Persimmons have a unique delicate flavor to be enjoyed when raw - not sure how it would convert baked, although I've seen a few persimmon breads recently.

2012-05-14T21:54:24.428-07:00

I'm planning on trying this recipe out sometime in the next week. Alas, we do not have a Target anywhere near here. I was able to find a package of Sun-Maid dried peaches locally, but I don't think they're as dried out as freeze dried peaches would be. Any advice on how to proceed? Try to chop the sort-of-a-little moist dried peaches as-is? Try to dry them out more in the oven first? Help!

2012-05-11T16:16:23.108-07:00

These cupcakes are delicious! But first ingredient listed should be 1 and 3/4 cup cake flour, not 3/4 as currently listed on the Week of Menu recipe. Just a small typo!

Congrats on a million! When I make these pops, I'll be waving about five around at a time because they look THAT good. Mmmmm.

2012-05-10T22:18:47.605-07:00

Not only did I look like a hero to the kiddos, I made this while doing work on my laptop on the kitchen - just a few minutes to put the wings in the oven and start the glaze, then checking the reduction about 3 times total. Put the wings on parchment paper so no clean up except the sauce pan, 1/2 cup measuring, and one spoon for the jarred ginger and garlic. [note, subbed white wine that I was drinking for sake, apple cider vinegar for the rice vinegar]

congrats!! :D

2012-05-08T18:35:57.083-07:00

It looks amazing! I live in an area where it's difficult to get Korean supplies and I want to make it sooner than I can mail order it. Do you think I could substitute Sriracha Sauce for the chili paste?

2012-05-03T23:26:28.693-07:00

did not add any food coloring. Did you use dried bluberries or freeze dried blueberries? The freeze dried blueberries need to be pulverized somehow - perhaps in a coffee grinder? If you do, you will get the purple color.
