Chec guguluf cu levantica si portocala

Bundt sau guguluf, nu stiu prea bine cum sa le spun in romana acestor checuri – guguluf poate desemna si un desert asemanator cozonacului, asadar e greu sa-i gasesti un nume. Ii voi zice guguluf doar pentru ca suna romaneste si multi dintre voi il stiti asa. Oricum il cheama insa, acest tip de chec e impresionant prin forma in care e copt – il face cu totul special si nu mai are nevoie de prea multe pentru a fi prezentabil. O glazura simpla sau ciocolata topita si gata, aveti un desert nemaipomenit!

Reteta de azi, chec bundt cu portocala si levantica, aduce in prim plan un ingredient putin neobisnuit pentru papilele gustative ale multora – levantica. Planta asta aromata e genul de ingredient care trebuie folosit in cantitati mici ori riscati sa obtineti un chec cu gust de sapun si nu un desert comestibil. Gustul intens al levanticii poate foarte usora acoperi orice alta aroma asa ca nu exagerati cand o adaugati in deserturi. De data asta eu am combinat-o cu portocala si am pus din ambele cate putin, doar cat se am din fiecare o aroma delicata. Am decorat checul cu o glazura acrisoara de portocala rosie, insa merge orice fel de portocala ori chiar lamaie.

ENGLISH

I find Bundt cakes to be quite fascinating and incredibly versatile. Not only they are easy to make, but easy to decorate as well. A quick sugar glaze or some melted chocolate it’s all you need to make a Bundt cake shine. Moreover, they come in so many flavors and possible combinations that having a beautiful Bundt cake pan is a must in every baker’s kitchen. These Bundt cake pans come in many designs, some more intricate than others.

Today’s orange lavender Bundt cake is fragrant, moist, fluffy and just gorgeous with the tangy orange glaze. I used bloog orange juice for the glaze, but any orange will do – you mainly need the tartness of the orange juice and rely on lavender for flavor. Although there is some orange zest in the batter, the aroma is delicate so it’s the intense lavender that stands out. Speaking of lavender, there is one rule when baking with it – a little goes a long way – the last thing you want is to add too much and end up with a soap tasting cake rather than a nice, beautiful flavor. So keep that in mind – only add small amounts of lavender to desserts as it can be overpowering in larger quantities, especially for taste buds that aren’t used to its aroma.
