Hope your surgery goes well, Mike!

thanks, Aaron! I'll pass the info along
Aaron, can you share what you are doing that is improving your shaping? I know its an age old problem, but I was wondering if you had any words of advice for Will.
I bookmarked those scones for when I get my hand back. They look good.
Will made sourdough pancakes the other morning and they were delicious with your syrup!
Glad to hear your surgery is soon. I have heard the same thing from my friends and my mom who had the surgery. I would love to not have to wear glasses all the time.
I get my stitches out on Monday. I started therapy for my fingers yesterday - arthritis and i couldn't practice making fists as he wanted because the splint was in the way. 24 hours and I can see difference already.
based on your description, I can't decide if I want to watch it (to see a train wreck?) or say thanks you saved me some time 😁
not enough left to send 🤣
It tasted really good too! Yum to pepperoni pizza
Will’s sourdough made in the banneton
He’s always been an adventurous cook, but the baking is new
Will made Ina’s tomato soup and roasted som red peppers. He made turkey, Brie,spinach, roasted red peppers with Dijon on my focaccia that he took from the freezer.
italiancook,
I remember when PJ was doing blogs on reducing sugar in baking. So I went over to King Arthur and found this
https://www.kingarthurbaking.com/blog/2017/07/11/baking-with-reduced-sugar
I saw that article and sent it to the guys at Baking Steel - they said they knew all about it and he is a friend of the company.
I love my baking steel and plan to get a mini griddle for my English muffins and Will's tortillas. The problem with using the steel on the stovetop is that if you use oil it leaks all over the stove. the mini griddle fits nicely over a burner. the back is flat so it could be used for small pizzas in the oven.
it does look delicious - I could eat some right now!
Will might make some this week. I was watching a Baking Steel video where he subbed in beer for the water in the 24 hour dough. All he put on the pizza was a drizzle of olive oil and several grated cheeses. he took it from the freezer, grated it straight over the dough and said that being cold it kept the cheese from cooking too quickly.
BA, re the beer - they mentioned that they've substituted other liquids - champagne, sprite, 7-up, coffee, coconut water, juices such as spinach or beet which add color as well
hiSwith and all. the surgery went very well. They numbed the arm and while I can begin to move it, I still have to be careful and it still feels like its "waking up." he did insert a plate.He indicated when I first saw him, that I might not have to do therapy - we'll see. The good news is that they were careful about the anesthesia and I am not having lingering effects today.
