Critical Success Points

  • Heating oil to the correct temperature (350°F).
  • Applying gold leaf while nuggets are still warm to ensure adhesion.
  • Handling edible gold leaf with clean, dry tools to prevent tearing.

Safety Warnings

  • Hot oil can cause severe burns – keep children and pets away from the stove.
  • Gold leaf is edible but can be a choking hazard for small children; keep out of reach.
  • If flambéing Jameson, keep a fire extinguisher nearby and never leave the pan unattended.
