The Chewy Semolina Rye bread is excellent - nice crumb and flavor. My husband likes the size of a slice, as it did not rise as high as most of my breads do.
Today I made KABC's Chewy Semolina Rye recipe for the first time. The only change I made was to use Rye Bread Improver instead of vital wheat gluten. It looks funny, not a smooth top, and doesn't have a strong rye odor. We'll cut into it tomorrow to find out about the crumb and flavor.
Dinner tonight was grilled chicken thighs, wild rice, broccoli, and leftover orzo salad.
We had salads for supper - seafood, broccoli, and orzo with tuna, celery, onions, green pepper, carrots and Italian dressing. After 3 days of temperatures around 87 degrees, the 77* today was perfect for starting to clean up the rock garden, enjoy a margarita on the deck, and have salads ready to eat.
Today I made raspberry oatmeal bars. I started by thawing berries that we grew last summer and then making jam. I scattered chocolate chips on top of the oatmeal and berry layers, and then topped it with a sprinkling of an oatmeal streusel. They are delicious.
Dinner tonight was stuffed peppers and green salad.
I don't start any of my vegetable seeds indoors, I either plant the seeds in place, or buy starts. I have started lettuces in planters, to be moved out onto the deck when the weather is right. I'll start herbs inside this weekend. And this year I've started a lot of flowers, with more seeds to plant. I did a very little bit of winter sowing, in clear plastic containers this year, and I'm eager to see when Mother Nature does her thing and the seeds sprout. I don't plant anything outside until Memorial Day. Although, maybe things will be different this year. It was 86 here today, a record for this date. Next week will be a lot cooler here, also, although it appears temperatures will stay above freezing from now on. I'll be traveling a lot for the next 6 weeks, so hopefully all my starts will survive some neglect.
I made burger buns today.
Joan, I'm so sorry to hear that. I'm praying both of you to be strong.
Dinner tonight was grilled ham steak with broccoli salad and potato salad.
Today I made a carrot cake with cream cheese frosting.
The dinner rolls I made yesterday are delicious! I'll be making these again.
My husband finished off the leftover clam chowder. I had a large salad, with lettuces from the sunroom, orange sweet peppers, onions, tomato, cheddar cheese and Ranch dressing.
I made dinner rolls, using a basic bread recipe to which I added a generous helping of Herbes de Provence. I shaped 12 rolls with 80 grams of dough in each, and rolled the tops in KAF's Artisan Bread Topping seeds. 80 grams makes a fairly large roll, good to have with a bowl of soup; but it is more bread than I want to eat with a "dinner" meal.
We had roasted chicken thighs, wild rice, and butternut squash.
