Q: I have a recipe for a steamed egg and ginger pudding. It can be eaten hot or cold, and I prefer it cold. The problem is that it starts to separate in the fridge (liquid accumulating where I've scooped pudding out, or sometimes around the edge of the bowl). How do I prevent that?I did look at this discussion, but I can't tell whether it's relevant.Recipe, in case it's relevant2 C water4 oz. ginger root4 oz.

Q: After I have made my pizza and put the toppings onto it, I find that I am unable to transfer the pizza on to the pizza stone in the oven.When I try to do it the pizza goes out of shape, gets folded, the toppings get messed up and sometimes it sticks or rips. I have tried putting lots of flour under the pizza before I add the toppings but it didn't really help.I am having to make the pizza on a metal tray and then put the tray onto the stone. Put I think that doing this prevents my pizza base from crisping properly.What am I doing wrong? Is there some technique I should use, or am making the dough to wet, or to thin or something?

A: transfer pizza onto stone without sticking

Q: My icing is 1/4 cup butter to 1 1/2 cups of icing sugar and a couple tablespoons of milk, so I'm thinking that with so much sugar, the answer is "almost indefinitely in the fridge."So, as the title says, how long is it reasonable to keep the remnants of a batch? Although I've made small amounts (like the above recipe) on occasion, I'd like to make a big batch, seal it up, and use it as needed.(I realize that it might not work as well a month or two down the road, I'll experiment with it if I decide it's ok to use.)
