Any Home Bakers Here?

I'm not on Twitter but manage to still spend a crazy amount of time online :cool:

The hen that dropped out of the sky...did you post a new member intro with that story? Seems I read that!
Ayup! That’s me. It was a pretty weird adventure. Lol. Last October. (The convo below is between mom 73 & me, I was in the ag industry since a child~ But have only had my dogs since retirement in 2017.)

It's going to be hot for the next week. I think the closest I'll get to cooking is making kombucha in the next day or so.

Oh, well, there's the Instant Pot. That counts, doesn't it...?

And bread in the machine. Thank goodness for that modern convenience.

It's hot here too (90* is hot for us) so no baking unless it fits in the toaster oven :cool:
 
Thank you!

Yeah. It’s fine for when I’ll be eating it at home. But some of it was for work/school lunches so i think I’ll just pack some bread in with those containers.

The next time you cook noodles save some to use with the chicken soup the next day for your lunch.
 
The boule turned out majorly... okay. The rack was too low so I didn't get a good caramelization, which kinda sucks. I also scored it too deep, but live and learn. Tastes great for a peasant boule! I find that I much prefer sourdough over regular yeasted bread.

Also, here's my starter 20 hours post feeding! She's doing fantastic; bubbly, sour, tangy, and sweet. Can't wait to bake a great loaf Monday!

That’s looking really good!
 
During the summer I make a lot of focaccia, my appetite drops (so does my want to cook) and this ends up being something super easy to have a slice of for dinner or lunch. I'll make it twice a week and mix up the toppings, but tomatoes, basil, and garlic are just 🥰
