What are you baking now?

I just remembered one my dgs makes...
texas toast or your fav bread
cream cheese
strawberries or other berries
Three eggs and a dash of milk

He makes a fruit sandwich with the cheese and berries and them soaks the sandwich in the egg (mixture of egg and milk) on both sides then puts it in his paninni maker..or you can use a skillet with heavy object on top to press sandwich down a bit. Turn when golden brown. It was sooo good. Shoot now I have to go make myself some!

Okay I will have to try this. http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/giadas-weekend-getaways/french-toast-recipe/index.html What a way to go.

I think that I might have try my hand at making the challah bread.

We enjoy Challah, and I make a lot of it both braided and in regular loaf shapes to sell at farmers markets.

Try it! Due to the eggs, it has a richer flavor. It also makes great French toast. Also, the dough makes a nice soft textured dinner roll.

Don't forget to take a tiny piece off and burn it, tradition!

I am going to have to try making challah bread. I have been using a no-knead method for making bread. I have to say it is the easiest way to make bread. All I have to do is stir flour, yeast, salt, and water together. After letting it rest for a couple of hours on the counter, I then put in the refrigerator overnight, and by the next day I can bake a loaf or two. Each batch makes enough dough for at least 3 loaves, but sometimes I can squeeze out a small pan of dinner rolls too.

Your loaf of bread is truly gorgeous.

I can never get no-knead recipes correctly! I think it's my awful memory. I need things that take less time or I forget I started the project entirely haha.

Thank you. P:

Well we are very much alike on projects and forgetting things. I finally had to write down the formula for the KN bread. It is actually very easy. It is 13 cups of flour (this needs to be measured exactly level cups.) 3 tablespoons of yeast, and 3 tablespoons of salt. Mix it all together with 6 cups of warm water. I use a plastic storage container with a lid that is not airtight. I squish it all together, just until the flour is incorporated in to the dough. then I let it sit for a couple hours on the kitchen counter. Then into the refrigerator it goes. The next day I cut a loaf size piece out of the dough and just barley shape it into a smooth loaf top. I let it raise. I then bake in a 425 degree oven for 30 minutes, amd then turn the oven down to 325 for another 20 min.

The dough is rather sticky when you are done with the first mix. But this bread is better than the traditional kneaded bread. It does work with some whole flour in with the all purpose flour. I haven't tried it with all whole wheat flour. I might try someday. I tried to find a metric conversion calculator online, but was sure about exactly how I was supposed to convert cups into on a metric scale.

That's okay, I can get the general idea, I do it this way all the time with American recipes. I'll just use cups - volume to weight never measures out properly. Thank you! I may try this but I worry about wasting so much flour on failure! D:
