I went shopping yesterday at Aldi and found this fantastic cake spring form tin made by Zenker that also doubles as a serving platter and came complete with a plastic lock cover....you just remove the spring form and the cake is ready to be served, great for making cakes and transporting them!
I'm soooooo tired!
I made my favourite Pasta today, I only do this a few times a year and spend the whole day making them. I always make them in bulk and freeze them, tho most of the time my extended family end up taking most of my stash!lol.....Hmmm I made 100 Maultaschen today, I wonder how many I will get to freeze and eat?
This is a bulk recipe that makes approx. 100 large Maultaschen.
Maultaschen
Pasta Dough
2 kilos of type oo flour
2 dozen eggs
salt
Filling
500 grams minced bacon (minced)
8 medium sized onions (minced)
I needed a break from gluten free baking and felt like baking with REAL flour!!! lol I found this recipe a while back on the Internet somewhere but sadly no longer have the link.
500 grams wheat flour
280 ml water
7 grams dry yeast
15 grams baking malt
15 grams of salt
Lye solution
20 grams of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) dissolved into 1 litre of cold water
I made a gluten free Black Forest Gateau for a friends birthday. It was a challenge for me since the recipe was written in German . I actually doubled the recipe and replaced the 100 grams of flour with GF flour and the cake turned out perfect. I thought I'd share the recipe in case there are any GF bakers interested, the recipe can be found here http://tinyurl.com/6ptz3fs
Guess I should have cleaned the bench before taking this photo! lol
I've recently been baking gluten free bread as a friend has been diagnosed with celiac disease and I finally found a really nice recipe http://www.food.com/recipe/gluten-free-flax-bread-190906
My whole gluten eating family really like this bread, great flavour and can also be used for sandwiches as well as toasting.
I did make a few changes and I also cooked the bread in a dutch oven and found I got much better oven spring in the dutch oven over the pizza stone.
