If you cover the raisins with water, bring it to a boil , cool and drain before using, it will plump the raisins and reduce the total amount of iron in them. Whether or not it will reduce the iron by enough to help you is something I do not know. As strong as the discarded liquid tastes, it is taking a lot of something out of the raisins.

Soaking golden raisins in vodka is nice. It”helps” arthritis

I can fit 12 loaves at a time in the oven. I made all of the bread and calzones in 4 hours. I just have my routine down lol

I'd like to see a pic of this oven. My oven fits six one-lb. loaves.

I was doing home made bread for a long time. I found that the yeast has quite an impact on flavor. As a matter of fact when San Francisco burned 1849 - 1841 a lot of immigrant folks were killed running back to their bakeries trying to save yeast strain cultures they brought from over seas . Now comes the the part where I need my rear end kicked . I had a strain that was brought to Oregon on the Oregon trail in a covered wagon and lost it somehow I am devastated over it . I wonder if there is any yeast strain traders on here ?

How do you save a yeast strain? To me, yeast is a dry granular product.
