Con la masa final podemos empezar a hacer las formas de las galletas con las manos, a nuestro gusto. Si las preparas con niños déjales crear otras formas y medidas... cocinando también estimulamos nuestra creatividad!
With the final dough we can shape the cookies with our hands, the way we like them. If you prepare them with children, let them create other shapes and sizes… We also stimulate our creativity when cooking!

Colocar
las galletas en una bandeja de horno sobre papel de cocina, separadas
las unas de las otras pues crecen un poco al cocerse. Calentar el horno
a 180º y cocer las galletas durante 10 minutos (hasta que se doren).
Put the cookies on an oven tray on kitchen towels, leaving some space between the cookies because they grow a little bit when being cooked. Heat the oven at 180º and cook the cookies during 10 minutes (until they brown).

Tip de nuestro Chef
Ya veis que es muy sencilla la preparación de esta receta... os daré un tip más profesional que realiza nuestro Chef Albert cuando prepara las galletas para el restaurante.
Una vez amasada toda la masa, hacer con ella una forma alargada (como si fuera un "churro") y colocarla en el congelador. Una vez la masa esté dura, cortarla con un cuchillo. La idea es que queden como monedas. Una vez cortadas colocarlas al horno 10 min a 180º y listo!!! Con el truco de Albert conseguirás que las galletas queden más homogéneas y "perfectas".
The preparation of this recipe is very simple... I will give you a more
provisional tip that our Chef Albert uses when he prepares the cookies
for our restaurant.
Once the dough is knead, make a long shape with it (like a ‘churro’) and
put it in the freezer. Once the dough is tough, cut it with a knife.
The idea is that they look like coins. Put them in the oven for 10
minutes at 180º and that’s it! With this trick you will get more
homogeneous and perfect cookies!
Deseo que te gusten mucho y sobretodo que goces de todo el proceso de preparación (una infusión y una música que te relaje serían el complemento perfecto). Un fuerte abrazo y nos vemos pronto!!!
