  1. Thanks for your reply. 

     

    I viewed the video many times and noticed there were techniques shown that were not printed in her sandwich recipe but were noted in her general bread making instructions.

     

    After the second 2hr rise, ½ the dough, dimple and fold and let rest for 20 minutes.  I did not do the rest.

     

    Look at how she handles the dough.  Gently almost reverentially.  Me?  I was very rough.

    “When I was young I was smart.  Now I am older I am kind.  I recommend kindness.” E.P. Doud

     

    Rising:  I was raising the dough in my oven along with hot water.  Too fast!  I now let the dough rise at room temperature.

     

    Results:  Smaller bubbles and a consistence loaf.

  2. Read the post on Popping Corn and here’s what I do, (Revived from Cooks Ill).

    20ML Canola Oil,

    45g Pop Corn,

    Put three kernels in the oil, cover pot and heat oil till all three kernels pop.

    Remove pot from heat, dump all the kernels into the hot oil, cover with a wire mesh and wait 30 seconds.

    Return the pot to the heat and shake till popping is finished.

    At first the pop corn will be rather moist. With tossing the kernels give off moisture and crisp up.

    Seasonings:

    Kosher salt with or without white sugar,

    Dried cheddar cheese, garlic powder, salt,

    Penzeys Cheese Sprinkle,

    A few web sites for corn are:

    Vermont Cheese Powder - 8 oz. Jar

    Crown Jewel Gourmet Popcorn: Baby Opal

    Gourmet Popcorn - The best hulless popcorn

    White Cat Popcorn

  3. Greetings and Salutations Everyone,

    Having fun going through the forums. Very appreciative of the high level of discourse and good humor. I’m home.

    Looking for a pasta cook book. One that doesn’t use volumetric measurements. Metric is welcomed.

    I’ve been making linguine and ravioli for over ten years.

    Favorite is my KitchenAid Paste roller.

    Thanks in Advance,
