Happy Birthday, Cass!
*Joins the guessed and missed crowd
I made my usual bun recipe but divided it into 4 burger buns and 4 three strand braided rolls. A couple of them are destined for Italian sausage.
On Sunday I got the Char Griller fired up and cooked some burgers and Italian sausage. Also some zucchini, mushrooms and red bell pepper. On Sunday I had the grilled veggies and a burger. Yesterday I had a burger and steamed broccoli.
This is one I knew thanks to Good Eats episodes.
I received an email from Amazon today offering SAF Gold in one pound packs for $9 and change (Prime, free shipping). I was able to get a 4 ounce jar of Red Star active dry yeast from Whole Foods the other day. The yeast situation is far from normal but it appears to be easing up some. Anyway, I have a pound of SAF Gold in the freezer that I bought from KAF last year and two 4 ounce jars of Red Star ady so I am not (no longer, lol) in a panic about yeast.
Leftover beans with pork and a toasted sandwich bun.
I made another batch of my sandwich buns. Even using the reduced amount of yeast, they rose pretty fast.
I didn't know you could keep buttermilk that long. If I don't think I'm going to use the buttermilk before it hits the exp date, I portion it in one cup servings and freeze it.
I guessed correctly.
I guessed right.
I cooked some ground pork then added canned baked beans and had it over brown rice. It wasn't bad.
Yesterday I sauteed some zucchini, mushrooms and red bell pepper a little thin sliced fresh garlic and then added meat sauce (tomato, onion & carrot) I had in the freezer and served it over spaghetti.
I made a hamburger and mashed potatoes.
I'm retired, every day is a Saturday and every night is a Friday. The lockdown hasn't changed my schedule too much. The only thing is dealing with various shortages.
