Happy you can see your sister. Big time lockdowns today at my mother's nursing home. My visiting with her has been curtailed due to delta. Sigh
August 12, 2021 at 3:22 pm #30973Glad we have central air so I can cook and bake anything I want. No such thing as too hot.
August 12, 2021 at 6:51 pm #30978Skeptic, I looked up strawberry spoon bread and it looks wonderful. Think I try it with nectarines.
I made BrianjWoods tomato basil bread today and it turned out very well. Increased basil from one tablespoon to a quarter cup and added a quarter cup of grated parmesan cheese. Recipe calls for baking as one large loaf but I divided it into a loaf and a boule. A little dense but very tasty.August 12, 2021 at 10:17 pm #30984Thanks all for the well wishes for my sister but it's not looking good.
August 13, 2021 at 11:21 am #30985I'm so sorry, Joan. Prayers for all of you.
August 13, 2021 at 4:59 pm #30988I baked my whole wheat sourdough cheese crackers on Friday. The dough had sat long than usual, but the crackers came out fine.
August 14, 2021 at 6:56 am #30990Just took a 10 inch cheesecake out of the oven. Took 6 8 oz jars of apple pie jelly out of the water bath and the tops are popping. Lovely sound.
August 14, 2021 at 10:43 pm #31001Kimbob I love to hear that sound of the jars sealing too!
August 15, 2021 at 7:40 am #31002It's a symphony when the jars seal!
My husband and I have been feeling the need for a sweet, crunchy little goody, me to have with tea in the afternoon, and he to have as a snack. I found a recipe for Spiced Biscotti that I printed from Cook’s magazine. (When I first had my new oven, Wolf gave a 6-month free access to the Cook’s site, and I scoured it for non-butter cookies.) I used the option of three whole eggs rather than 2 large eggs and 2 yolks. I made two changes: I replaced 1 ¼ cups of the AP flour with white whole wheat flour, and I added 2 Tbs. Bob’s Red Mill milk powder. I sprinkled Penzey’s cinnamon-sugar over each log before baking as an added touch. I baked them on the third rack up in my oven, which is just slightly above center.
On another note: I found my 40 cm ruler (inches on the other side) that comes in so handy when I make crackers. I mentioned back around January that I had misplaced it. I found it this week. I had put it in the drawer with the oven mitts instead of the drawer with my scale and various spatulas. I stumbled upon it while looking for a specific mitt, and there it was, nicely set against the side of the drawer.
