Things are starting to cool off, so I've managed to bake the last two weekends.
Two weekends ago I made a Potato Bread from Bernard Clayton's New Complete Book of Breads.
It was great. I'll definitely be baking it again, and probably posting a recipe here in the next few days.
It started simply enough. I needed to make bread this weekend for sandwiches this week. Since I hadn't gotten my starter out of the refrigerator and activated soon enough, it had to be a yeasted dough. And there are so many formulas to try in BBA . . .
This weekend's baking exercise focused on sourdough Enlish muffins, using the recipe from King Arthurs Flour. The taste is wonderful! Even my 4-year old grandson polished his off and he is at a stage where he is developing some very strong opinions about what flavors are or aren't acceptable.
