Well, that explains it. Thank you for clearing that up.

Crumpets taste delicious, by the way.

They are very tasty!

This is the bread I baked this morning. What I learned today is: DO NOT try to get a dark crust on your sourdough by brushing your raw dough with an egg wash before baking! What happened was, when the bread baked under cover with ice cubes, the egg wash steamed into the top layer of the dough, resulting in a soft, almost gummy texture rather than the crispy one I was going for. It also didn't brown very well when I uncovered it because the egg was already cooked. It's not bad, just not what I had hoped for. When I brought it out of the oven, I brushed it with butter, giving it that golden glow.

I absolutely Luv the way bread looks... Experimenting is so much enjoyable.
Your $400 investment is rewarding you.

Isn’t it just awful when the chickens shut the door on you?

Bakers good morning one and all!

I've been so busy I got behind reading my backyard chickens threads.

Temperature is in the 70s.

Have a great day!

39°F here. I did find ice on a water line near the garden this morning.

I had to build a fire in the wood stove last night to take the chill off the house. September 15th, first fire of the season. And 80 is forecast for several days next week.

That's Michigan!

How did you know that happened to me?
