Bakers good morning one and all!

The temperature is 75 and sunny.

DH was going to Pittsburgh to work on an install with several coworkers. They were going to fly, but they ended up driving instead, because of flight issues.

So I took him to where they were meeting up, and came home. No airport hassle. DH was very happy not to be flying, anyway.

I'd be happy not to hassle with an airport either these days.

My gluten free sourdough loaf turned out so so.
Think my batter was too wet. GF dough isn't really a dough but rather a thick batter so its easy to make a minor mistake.

The bread is tasty but kind of flat. Will still make good sandwiches and considering I was adding the GF SDS to my own whole grain GF recipe and not a published one, I'm content with the learning experience.

My GF SD loaves have been tasty, but flat too. It was flat out AWESOME with some homemade lentil soup!

Gonna make a lot of noise here, because I'm going to grind some brown rice. Sounds like I'm trying to grind pebbles!

We have all had "not the perfect" LOAF. Practice and different recipes...TRIAL ERROR a LEARNING experience ...that it becomes a challenge. AND YOU WILL BECOME SUCCESSFUL. When my husband was working with his Bread Machine...not too successful..he would give the squirrels a treat. AND while he was learning, trial, error our squirrels were very happy. SOON the squirrels were sad. He had become successful with his Bread Baking.

Good to know I've got company with the flat sourdough. And lentil soup sounds yummy! Mine would also be perfect sopping up soup or smearing up some marinara!

Grinding pebbles...

Got an easy dinner for y’all!

I put one bottle of Trader Joe’s taco sauce with a quart of chicken broth in the crock pot along with 6 or 7 chicken breasts and a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Turn it on low for ~4ish hours and shred, and you’ve got taco meat!

I just noticed something about GF SDS. I probably should have fed her yesterday, but didn't. She'd risen, and now has settled. The bottom inch, which had no bubble activity (that's common for her) now has little bubbles. Like the stuff that settled to the bottom of the jar has now become food.

It will come back when you feed it.
