Rainy day baking and cooking... What are you cooking today?
Comments (24)Although it seems like a forgiving dough - I can taste that I cheated on the overnight ferment. Sorry your casserole dishes aren't big enough. I bake in a toaster oven so when my bread rises it burns on top. Another reason P a L'A is good - it spreads out more than up. I brush the bread with some slightly salty water right before it goes in the oven. But I lose that lovely floury rustic surface. Do you have a pizza stone? That helped me get a better crust back when I last had an oven - now I use it in my grill to make pitas. Also I read somewhere or another about using a SS restaurant dish lid as a cloche though I've never seen one large enough. I am currently jealously watching a neighbor build a stone wood-fired bread oven by his pond - the ultimate bread oven. He says he will advise me when I am ready to build one - and I definitely do not lack for rocks. However right now my 'yard' is festooned with logs, brush and firewood piles. Hopefully in the near future the logs will become a woodshed and I can move the firewood inside. Then maybe a bread oven - which will entail moving rocks. I'm tired just thinking about it all. Making some tea and toast and taking a nap....See MoreWhat Are You Baking for The Weekend?
Comments (13)This is the recipe I used for my corn casserole. Sweet Corn Casserole 1 - 15.25 oz. can of whole corn drained 1 - 15 oz. can cream style corn 1/2 cup white sugar 1 egg beaten 1/4 cup butter, melted and divided 2 sleeves of buttery crackers, crushed and divided, I used Town House Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Stir drained whole corn, cream corn, sugar, egg, and 3/4 of the butter together along with half of the crushed crackers. Place in a greased casserole dish. Add other half of crackers with the rest of the butter to the top. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until the top begins to brown. If you want to double this recipe then it will fit a 9 X 13 pan.

Comments (30)I've had the urge for an Apple Crostata, and Empires and Cortlands are my favourite apples. Boy I wish I lived closer to you Alsisande, your apples look wonderful. I'm in apple country, but they're still pricey. I'm going to have to bite the bullet and get some regardless. Nicole, I always put molasses in my bran muffins. It also calls for buttermilk, and I combine yogurt and milk to make buttermilk. It works perfectly, as we always have yogurt in the frig. I didn't do any baking this weekend, I made bread last weekend and we still have some. But I have chicken thighs that were marinated in lemon juice, garlic and lemon zest. They're in the oven over rice, baking now....See MoreWhat Are You Baking or Cooking for the Weekend?
Comments (20)I just put a turkey in the over and I am making a brownie since the oven is on. I wanted to take the chill out of the air here. Friday night I made Tiger Meat, For those of you who don't know what it is It is raw hamburger like ground chuck. I add green pepper, raw egg, onion and salt and pepper. It is really good. We eat it on saltine crackers. I got the meat from my brother who had the cow butchered. No I am not scared of getting salmonella. I would not just use any hamburger for it though. Some butcher shops sell the meat especially for this....See More
