Any Home Bakers Here?

A lot better, @penny1960 I am over my bug now.

I am also excited for quail season. 19 days! Cleaned my 12 gauge and I am in the process of renewing my hunting license.

Quail season is year round. So is duck, turkey, chicken and even deer season. The deer are trickier, but no one thinks twice about gunshots around here.

You've never had a crumpet? You're missing out!
They're actually quite different than an English muffin. They're a lot less of a bread. Definitely moister. They're really hard to explain.

I don't know about there, but you can usually find them in the bread section in the grocery store. They're factory made and in sealed plastic, so you're getting a kind of crappy version, but still not bad. Just pop them in the toaster.
I don't know if it's still there, but when I lived in WA, I'd stop in at the crumpet shop on Pine (right by the main entrance to Pike Place Market) and buy fresh ones. Mmmmm

Some days I'm lucky to just find the bread I like at our stores! Crumpets are probably a 'no'. Might have to look up a recipe and see what's involved.

No need to find a recipe now...thanks for providing one IM!

Question, I don't have rings. Can I substitute something else?

Thank you! It was done and it melts in your mouth.

I highly recommend the Au Gratin potatoes and ham recipe @penny1960 shared in this thread. Lots of flavor! I didn't add any extra salt/pepper and felt it wasn't needed at the table.

Hose clamp? Any metal cookie cutter would work.

I posted a crumpet recipe a page back. It has a note that says you do not need a ring

Ron when you say 1 cup Sourdough Starter ...would you use 1 cup
flour and 1 cup water? (this would be an unfed starter)...Aria

I butter up rings from my mason jar lids.
