  1. Try this link for part 2.
  2. Yup - 1 kg. I think 850 g makes sense.
  3. batch of lean french - kinda missed a few turns while I was at work cold bottom warm top seems to be permanently attached to the lid - but looks nice!
  4. Didn't cut all that easily - electric knife wanted nothing to do with it. The Montana Works knife did! Hard to get thin slices. Outside way too firm, middles quite nice.
  5. Couple (that would be 2) rounds of around 30 seconds.
  6. That's actually the one that causes me indigestion - rye breads I have no issue with.
  7. But Rye gives me indigestion!
  8. True that - I do have some already in the fridge but there could be a whole lot more. What else in the book uses rye berries and cracked rye?
  9. Asked @Alleguede the next time he was near Grain Process Enterprises to grab me some rye kernel and cracked rye. Knew he was heading over here this evening for a quick visit so he ran there today for me. This is the size container I ran out of. This is what he brought! Hope I like the vollkornbrot - cause there is a crapload in my future!
  10. All the pictures online seem to show the topping on the dough then baked.
  11. Took a lot longer to get to 100 C than expected - about 90 min vs 45. When I get home today I shall wrap it and then cut it in 24 hours or so. There was definately some rise - the question will be what that crumb looks like.
  12. Yup - chamber vac worked a treat!
  13. I bought my first one from Beryl's - she's lovely and very helpful.

    Rooibos

    Metropolitan Tea is a wholesale outfit - so not sure if they ship to individuals. My original link was them but I see that that led to a link to Tweed and Hickory - about whom I know nothing sadly. Yes Canada.
  15. Interesting - follows their half popped popcorn bits like those from the bottom of the bowl.

    Rooibos

    Rooibos provence for me - this one.
  17. Got no rye groats - so I've taken my whole rye grain and buzzed it in the thermomix to crack it a bit. Probably not an ideal situation - and I'm about 30 grams short so I've added a bit of dark rye flour in it's place for the rye groat levain.
  18. Nothing to do with cocktails - I usually put Kirsch in almond fillings/pastes.
  19. Chris - is this the standard version or the modernist one?
  20. Modernist Foccacia Baked in cast iron frying pan
  21. I shall add it to my list! Today I randomly selected modernist focaccia.
  22. I've become a little stuck on the Jewish Corn Rye. Made it on Thursday at work and took some excellent german salami, pastrami and cheese to serve with it. Then made it again yesterday at work - then today had to make a single larger loaf for home. Forgot to glaze it - but not seeing that as a huge problem! Now I need to get a little daring and make something new - perhaps I should close my eyes and open the kitchen manual at a random page?

    Melamine

    I have three favoured pieces of blue melamine - two were moms, another a thrift store find. I think they are veggie serving bowls - but mom used them to scramble up the eggs, etc for french toast and for breading various foods for shallow frying. They dip down a little on the sides. The one to the right is newer and much lighter than the other two originals.

    Melamine

    I thought melamine predated microwaves? I found a microwave destroyed any pieces I put in it. Had to get Corelle for the boat when we introduced the microwave.
