I was about to make Larry's cheese bread but...

Toast

As I mentioned to Larry on the other his post yesterday, I made your cheese bread (   I was about to..).... but I found out that I didin't have enough sharp cheese although I though I had enough...   So, I made " Cheese sheet" to fold into the dough like making croissants instead.

 

It is not neat.. 

some of My favorite breads

Toast

Again, I want to introduce some breads that I make over and over!   My family loves these bread as I can tell is they don't complain to me that they are tired of these bread. They ask me more slices of these often.

Today, I made several bread using TFLers fomula. All of them are delicious.

First, I made mutigrain (100% whole wheat flour used) using Franko's formula.  I decreased the water amount down to 9% compare to the original one.  I have make his original one at the first time  that was a failure that the crumb was really tight.  The flavor was great but the texture was dry. I was kneading too much...    Anyway I will challenge the original one when I get spelt flour because it is a great recipe!

The great baguette and bagel

Toast

When I prepared to make "36 hours + sourdough baguette" that is posted by Txfarmer http://www.thefreshloaf.com/node/19830/36-hours-sourdough-baguette-everything-i-know-one-bread  last night, I mixed the sourdough culture and flour instead the water and the flour by my mistake because I was ready to feed my starters in the same time.  The sourdough culture that is my keeper was taken out from refrigerator.( 6 ℃)    I didn't want to throw it away, so I continued ...

Heavy baguettes are good too?

Toast

I have a question.

When I tried to make a Gosselin or Mr Nippon's looking baguette, They turned out  both of them were heavy baguettes. They are looking good indeed.  My question is that is right?  they are supposed to be heavy? I never had real one so that I can't figure it out. I hope that somebody tell me the fact.

 

Bruschetta

Toast

 I found this recipe on Cookpad. ( Japanese)  It is very good to eat this in summer using juicy fresh tomatoes, fravorful fresh basil with your own baguettes. I love it without doubt. This recipe was posted by suru-zen. Thank you, suru-zen!!

 My favorite's Bruschetta recipe:

Ingredients  

100% whole wheat bread

Toast

 My husband had been diagnosed with hypoglycemia. The worsest thing is that he has been suffering from panic attack  since he pasted out at the work 3 years ago. I was too silly that I hadn't tried to use 100% whole wheat flour on my recipe. ( My old recipe was 54%(Actually 54.5%)whole wheat bread)  And yet he likes 55% whole wheat bread more than than 85% or 100%.
