almonds, Cashews, egg white, kosher salt, maple sugar, maple syrup, peanuts, pecans, Spices, Walnuts, Worcestershire sauce

This image has an empty alt attribute; its file name is img_6967-2.jpgI received a jar of delicious mixed nuts for my birthday.  The Unbound Reader and Middle Son, we the source of this goodness.  These nuts (not the children!) were addictive.  I’m certain you noticed that past tense reference.  They were crisp, ever so slightly sweet and salty, with a really savory spice flavor.  Well, I thought it worthwhile to try and reproduce them in far greater quantity.  This is that experiment.  Continue reading →

Tags

all-purpose flour, brown sugar, butter, dry powdered milk, eggs, instant yeast, kosher salt, Spices, sugar, water

This is more or less the Everyday Bread recipe, but with additional butter, egg and sugar and using all-purpose flour.  I decided to give you an actual recipe, rather than try to alter it…I did that, but even I found it confusing.  Confusing is bad.  Understanding is good…and it leads to much better results!

It seems that everyone is baking bread these pandemic days.  Particularly sour dough, which The Goddess wandered into, when yeast was not so readily available.  But, she’s returned to her roots…the bread you eat everyday!  A good, basic loaf…. Continue reading →
