English muffins

Profile picture for user stu currie

these are my first attempt at making English muffins and I must admit, I'm really really pleased with them. The recipe is from tartine by chad robertson.

For those of you who don't own that book, the recipe is a baguette dough that you flatten out on a baking sheet and then let rise like that, I used a 3 inch cookie cutter to cut them out, and then fried them in a little clarified butter for a couple of minutes on each side.

Even my daughter likes them...success!!

...I have ever seen.  I gave up on making them some time ago, as I could not achieve the "nooks and crannies" of a commercial English Muffin (ie Thomasville).

Thanks to your post, I will be back at it.  :|

 

 

Great job Stu.  These look perfect.  Very interesting using the butter.  Will have to give that a try...after I lose the last 7 pounds on my diet :).
