Feeling a bit thwarted artistically, hence the moody-bread shot. This bread was good, but I'm not crazy about Rye flour...very sticky, a bit heavy. I don't really see the point of it. It was easy, though. A 12 hour sponge, followed by a simple 2 hour room temp ferment, then 1 hour rise.
I'm predicting a palpable shift/cessation in these blogs once the weather (if the weather...) turns. I'm starting to get tired of cooking cooking cooking. But I have a marathon, studied list of meals for the duration of Pitsa's visit...maybe I should catalogue these, here. I have no pictures, but today we had capricosa spring salad with a basil emulsion, and fresh halibut.
Today Artemis and I went grocery shopping while Y and A picked Yiayia up at the airport. I loaded the buggy so full of groceries that it kept flipping backwards. Had to push it home, while pushing it up. Poor Artemis almost was launched into the atmosphere. Her favourite thing now is to sing Happy Birthday. I'll hear her singing to herself, substituting various names: Jen, Evan.... She also likes to say actually, as in, "actually, yes [I would like some soup]" or "actually no [I don't have a poo poo]".
What buggy was that? has spring arrived then?
ReplyDeleteQuestion: Do you hand kneed your breads?
ReplyDeleteFull of questions! First, it was the jogger, and that thing could scale Everest. Second, yes and no. I do part kitchen aid, part self kneading, and sometimes, I put it in a garbage bag and we all jump up and down for five minutes.
