      Answer Example

      "I typically make pastry cream by mixing x, y, and z ingredients and allowing it to chill before use in pastries. That is how we made it at the bakery I worked at, and while I have tried to tweak it a few times, it never quite makes the cut. The original recipe is so rich, creamy, and flavorful. I'm open to learning new recipes, but I also am coming to you with several that have lasted the test of time!"
