We had tomato soup and fried cheese sandwiches on the honey wheat bread I baked last night.
I'm baking a pizza for supper and will bake two loaves of honey wheat bread later this evening.
We're having a pizza for supper.
wrong thread.
One thing I have wondered about the practice of scalding milk is whether it wasn't also used as a way to extend the useability of milk that was starting to go sour, since that seems to get rid of some of the sour smell/taste. It probably isn't drinkable but it could be used in baking.
I'm having a roast beef sandwich and a salad, Diane is having mushroom soup.
I am making banana nut mini-muffins today.
I've updated the recipe (see favorites tab or https://mynebraskakitchen.com/wordpress/forums/topic/banana-nut-bread/ ) to note that in my silicone mini-muffin pan it takes about 24 minutes. I also put the entire batch back in the cooling oven so that the outsides get a bit more crisp, which we like.
we're having more of the roast beef and potatoes.
The weather has now been updated to a blizzard warning starting around 6 AM tomorrow with 2-4 inches of snow and high winds. It won't stick around for long because by Friday we'll be back in the 50's, but they've already called off public school and Nebraska-Lincoln (which is on spring break this week) for tomorrow based on the forecast.
Egg sales around Easter have often been loss-leaders, that might happen again in 2025, but with tight limits on quantities.
To me, frostings made with powdered sugar have a different taste and mouth feel, some of which may come from the cornstarch in it. It is possible to get powdered sugar that doesn't have cornstarch in it through baking supply companies, but you probably have to use it quickly and it may be a lot more expensive than ordinary powdered sugar or only be available in large bags.
Baker's sugar is more finely ground than ordinary table sugar. And I've been known to pulverize sugar in the food processor.
If the ganache is cooked a bit (longer), the sugar might fully dissolve from the heat.
We had our eye of round roast with mashed potatoes and gravy. Not very Irish, though.
Parts of Lincoln had a major dust storm hit Friday evening, but I think it went north of us.
The next few days are likely to be strange: we have a high of 80 predicted on Monday and then possibly 1-3 inches of snow Tuesday night.
We had salads with some of the leftover rotisserie chicken and some of today's tomatoes from the hydroponic garden.
I picked up a rotisserie chicken at Sams for supper tonight.
I picked a small (49 grams) tomato today, sliced it up really thin and we both had it on sandwiches.
This was definitely a Defiant tomato and was the best hydroponic tomato I've grown so far. There are a lot of Defiants on the vines, and while they aren't getting much larger than this one was, they'll be tasty.
I had meatloaf, Diane had beanie-weenie.
