I get the feeling that dinner rolls are one of those things that don't come out of the oven very often. We all love them. There's something about the soft melt-in-your-mouth inside, the buttery outside... it's nearly impossible to resist a freshly made dinner roll.

I get a kick out of trying new types of flours and grains in my bread baking. I frequently shop on-line at King Arthur Flour and like to try new and different products when I can. I've read many recipes on The Fresh Loaf using soakers and have tried a few recipes from Peter Reinhart's Whole Grain Bread book with mixed results. I decided the other day to try my own formula using
This fancy French named bread is really a Rustic Country San Francisco Sourdough. It originally started out as a Glenn Snyder Country SD bread minus the rustic and the sweetbird, that she is, took the recipe and tweaked it some and came up with the most amazing crust on a bread I have ever seen. I just had to try my hand at it and converted it further to more my liking by; using a rye sour starter, grinding my own WW and rye, increasing the rye to equal the WW, reducing the AP accordingly and then adding 50 g of whole WW and rye berries that were

Hello,
These are two breads I've wanted to bake, for quite awhile. Really glad now that I have, as both of these breads are so delicious, each in their own way! With thanks to Shiao-Ping and Mr. Leader for their lovely recipes :^)

So this year my son turned 10, and he requested a cake that was all sorts of "half-and-half".
Half of his cake, he wanted "hockey" themed. The other half, he wanted "warrior cat" themed. (He's been reading a series of books about fighting cats)
And he wanted strawberry AND chocolate cake as well.
Hi,
I've made the Pane alla Cioccolata fron Carol Field's Italian Baker many times with great success, and I always wanted to try the Pane al Latte e Cioccolata, which brings milk bread and chocolate together.
However, I have some problems with the milk dough recipe from the first edition of the book.
/* UPDATE */
After input from lvbaker I recalculated the formula, and now I have a milk dough with the same hydration level as the chocolate dough. A charm to work with. My adjusted percentages are given below, here some new photos:
