    Yesterday's bread.  

    Singing Bread.

    February%2018th%2C%202016%201-XL.jpg

     

    I tossed 100g of discarded starter into my regular baguette dough which has 5g of yeast.

     Really happy with the flavour of this bread. The sourdough starter adds just enough tang to make it interesting without the sourdough flavour that I don't care for. This was 68% hydration. So not a lot of big holes, but still shines.

  2. Anna,  I don't make many pan breads, but I want one of those Pullman Pans.

     

    Elaina, I just sat down with a second coffee and would love a piece of your cinnamon swirl.  

     

    Had my friend mill me some Canadian Whole Wheat  on Sunday so I used some to make a WW bread yesterday.

     I used my regular homestyle white but subbed 50% of the white for whole wheat.

    Those are gorgeous!!!

     

    I'm gonna have to find some of this Canadian flour.  That crumb is, like, biblical.  

    Thanks SLB.

     

    Franci, would you please share your brioche recipe?  I bought an extra dozen eggs from the farm yesterday just for this purpose.

     

    Started a batch of sourdough rye on Saturday and baked it last night after I got home from work.

     

     My son took the dough out of the fridge for me late afternoon so that it would be ready to go.

  7. Anna, I would love a bowl of your soup.  Comfort food.

    My issue is with making the dough that has good flavor. I always had the understanding that it was a long and involved process.

    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%20Chicken%20Curry%20January%2028t

    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.

  9. 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.

  10. 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.

  11. 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.
