Happy Birthday to your wife Mike,hope she had a great day!
Thanks for the information on degassing & reshaping the dough Mike,I almost did that but decided not to as I had no idea what would happen.
I kneaded the sourdough this morning for 8 minutes and it passed the window pane test.I got it in the 9x5 loaf pan rising for a couple hours and my friend called,she was driving her 95 year old aunt to put flowers on her husbands grave and car wouldn't crank.So my husband and I went to help.Ended up calling a wrecker (my husband thinks fuel pump is bad)because the battery turned over with no problem.Now back to my bread,I forgot about it or I would have put it in the refrigerator.when I got home 3 hours later it had risen a good inch and a half over the top and had fell to the side like handles.When I slashed the top it fell to even with the top of pan and didn't rise back up all the way but it's still a good loaf of bread.I wish it hadn't sat on the counter so long but all's well.I'll be happy for fresh toast in the morning.
Today we had taco salad,I had mine rolled in a flour tortilla.
Never made it ,love it and guessed right.Had no idea.
I pulled out my sourdough starter yesterday and started getting it ready for some more bread.Tonight I mixed it up and have it sitting on the counter overnight.Will get it baked sometime tomorrow.
I fried french fries and we're having leftover chili with it.
I guessed right.
We had spaghetti and meat sauce with garlic toast.
Missed it.
Tonight we had buttermilk pancakes and pan fried sausage.
Missed it.
Tonight we had cubed steak,potato salad and leftover rutabagas.
Missed it.
Bread looks nice Mike!
