  1. Moe liked his dinner last night so much that he eat the leftovers for breakfast. Kachin chicken curry with fried rice topped with a fried egg.

    Dinner 2016 (Part 1)

    We have a Mexican grocery store in Victoria where I can buy Masa harina flour. I find corn tortillas very easy to make with good flavour. Mmille, I aspire to have my pizzas look like yours. Tried a new recipe last night that gave me the excuse to buy a bamboo steamer. Kachin Chicken curry with fried rice with crispy shallots. I'm always salivating over Huiray's meals. Many of which are steamed. Can't wait to try a few.
  3. Unfortunately, the pictures in Shain's post are not opening for me. Yesterday's bake was sourdough. I began a new starter on Sunday with fresh milled organic rye and bottled water. Used some of the discard on Tuesday night to make a biga/preferment that went into a 750g batch of dough Wednesday morning. Dough went into the fridge and was baked yesterday.
  4. Moe requested one of his favourite breakfasts. Soft boiled eggs with buttered toast fingers. Toast was from bread baked last night.
  5. Amazing breakfasts. Patrick, wow, perfect biscuits. Moe's breakfast this morning. I'm lucky to have access to local farm fresh eggs.

    I love homemade corn tortillas. For me the simplest way to make them is to cut open a ziplock bag, I sandwich the ball of dough between the two pieces of plastic and then press. Flip the tortilla on to my hand and carefully pull the plastic off the top. Then it is easy to place onto the cast iron griddle. Pictures might explain it better.

    I would be happy with any one of these dinners. Should not look at the Dinner Thread early in the morning. Shelby, we had almost the same dinner. Except I was lazy last night and made a salad rather than fries. Not being a salad lover, I would have much preferred fries. Thursday night baked a ham Potato gratin and rapini.
  8. Smithy, I use Roger's Silver Star flour, unbleached 13.4%.
  9. Kbjesq, I get asked that all the time. I know that hydration and developing the gluten has a lot to do with it, but I also think that the flour I use (Canadian) also contributes.

    Breakfast! 2015

    We had ham for dinner last night. So Moe was looking forward to his ham and eggs this morning. Fried ham with buttered basted eggs. Eggs were fresh from a local farm. And he lucked out with a double yolker.
  11. Double batch of bread handmixed Tuesday evening. Both batches started with a biga. Left in the fridge until this morning. Four baguettes and four smaller size boules. Crumb

    So many outstanding meals and photos. Kim, great looking loaf of bread. Nice to have a great bakery that specializes. Hungry Chris, Would love your stuffed shrimp. Liamsaunt, That is one beautiful prime rib sandwich and photo. Baked Crusty Rolls for dinner Portuguese Chicken Sandwiches with Peri Peri mayo. I had some extra tourtiere filling leftover from Christmas Eve that I froze and I had leftover chicken gravy so I made Tourtiere turnovers with commerical puff pastry. Roast Chicken - Sunday night- Easiest dinner to prepare on a work night. Chicken was presalted two days earlier and roasted at 500°F.

    Liuzhou, I fell in love with a potato ricer as a child. Love mine too. Last night's dinner. Burgers and double fried fries.
  14. Yesterday's bake. Dough was started on Monday with a biga. Both Bigas tripled in about six hours. Two batches of dough, 750g each at 68% went into the fridge for an overnight bulk rise. Baked last night. Netted two pizzas for dinner and four loaves.

    Shelby, just early morning here on the west coast, but I have a craving now for oysters. Presalted a Sterling Silver Prime rib on Thursday. Before leaving for work yesterday, I uncovered it and let it air dry in the fridge. Roasted at 500°F. Served with Yorkshire puddings and homemade horseradish.

    Ringing out the old year. Ringing in the new had to wait until this morning. We never make it to midnight. Our tradition has always been to have lobster and champagne on New Year's Eve. Last year we decided to have local Dungeness crab instead. And this year, we decided to have crab, but to have it in a Cioppino, The crab weighed 2 1/4 pounds, and I added Clams, Mussels, local spot prawns and halibut to the pot. With home-made bread to sop up all the sauce. We shared a bottle of Champagne - Veuve Clicquot.
