Kaiser Rolls (more or less)
January 2, 2011
Earlier this year, I attempted to make barbecued pork and serve it on a kaiser roll. I’ll come right out and admit that I failed on both accounts, though the results were still tasty and somewhat edible.
Cinnamon Rolls, Take 2
September 7, 2010
I made these cinnamon rolls for Mother’s Day, partly because I was aiming to serve Amber breakfast in bed and partly because I was so disappointed in my other batch. Those things were crunchy and dense. These were flaky and light, gooey and oozing with flavor. For a brief moment while we ate these heavenly coils of sweetness, we forgot all about the little diaper beast in the other room. It was Mother’s Day, right?
Tortilla! Tortilla! Tortilla!
March 30, 2010
So on Saturday evening at 6:00pm, when we were debating what to make, we went to an old stand-by: tacos. We keep a (healthy?) stock of cheese, ground beef, salsa, and soft tortillas around so it’s easy to whip up a tasty meal. But upon looking in the refrigerator, I realized we only had two tortillas. Fortunately, my BreadYear.com list includes flour tortillas.
Buttery, Chewy Soft Pretzels
March 22, 2010
Yesterday, while watching some NCAA basketball, I whipped up a batch of soft, chewy pretzels slathered in butter and coarse salt. The recipe made eight medium-sized pretzels, and Amber and I made short work of them. Carbs be damned.
