Put a pot of my favourite chili on to simmer before leaving for work. When I got home, I just had to make the dough for the flour tortillas, salsa and a pitcher of Sangria. Last night’s beans were a combination of small chili beans and black beans cooked in the Breville PC. Matt put…

Made a rye dough yesterday morning before leaving for work and again I reduced the yeast so that the dough could be left out all day for a long room temperature fermentation. Baked last night and sliced this morning. It is Moe’s birthday today and I had planned to make Osso Bucco tonight but he…

I’ve mentioned often that I think that bread is very forgiving. Hard to screw up. I started two batches of dough on Sunday morning before leaving for work. One was a regular 500g batch with just 1 gram of yeast, 12 gr of salt and 315g of water for 63% hydration. And it was mixed…

Another batch of baguette dough done in the FP with a couple of stretch and folds. I love the shine I get from our wonderful Canadian Flour. Moe’s breakfast. Peaches and toast. This bread makes the best toast.

I decided to pull out my KA processor and…

Once again I had neglected my starter. Decided to feed and revive one morning recently. Fed it again same night and used some of the discard to make a biga which went into a batch of dough the next morning. Left it out on the counter all day and it was ready to shape when…

Grilled the Porterhouse steak and served sliced with a wine sauce. Sides were roasted potatoes, zucchini and sautéed cremini mushrooms. AND, as a side a new version of our favourite Gorgonzola Garlic bread. I still had one ball of pizza dough in the fridge. Decided to make a bastardized version of a Gorgonzola Garlic bread…
