San Joaquin Sourdough: yet another variation

Profile picture for user dmsnyder

 

The San Joaquin Sourdough has been my wife's favorite bread for quite a while now. It's not that she doesn't like other breads. She thought Salome's Potato-Nut bread that I baked yesterday was “amazing.” But, if I had an “everyday bread,” I guess this would be it. The recipe and background on this bread are described in my blog entry for Pain de Campagne.

Mark Sinclair's Multigrain and Ehanner

Toast

Today I made Mark Sinclair's wonderful Multigrain. I've made it before and don't know why I waited so long to make it again. The aroma of this bread baking should be enough to get me to make it often. Ehanner posted his loaves last year and his crumb is very open and beautiful. And the crumb on his is lighter in color for some reason. To see his take on this bread go here...

Hello all

I am looking for some help finding a recipe to make a Danish pasty that I use to buy every Sunday for my grandmother in South Philadelphia.  It was rectangular pasty with a crumb and icing drizzled over it. 

If anyone is familiar with this or has any ideas I would appreciate the help

My son asked if I could make hot cross buns for Easter three months ago, so I Googled the recipe and a whole new world opened up to me.  Up until then, I had hardly used internet recipes, and guess what - the first hot cross bun recipe that I came across was Dan Lepard's recipe and it came with this excerpt from [url=http://www.danlepard.com/content/pages/dan.htm/]Dan's website[/url]:

Potato-Nut Bread from South Tyrol (Thanks, Salome!)

Profile picture for user dmsnyder

 

This recipe was contributed by Salome, who recently joined TFL. She is Swiss, and the breads she bakes represent a bread tradition which is new to me. The Southern Tyrolean Potato-Nut Bread (Südtiroler Kartoffel- Nussbrot) particularly appealed to me, since I have made potato breads a couple of times and really enjoyed them, and I like sourdough bread with nuts. It seemed to me that the combination of the potato and nut flavors would be delicious.
