Update on my bread making skillz

Thursday, October 22nd, 2009

So of my goals for the last weekish I did make the following:

1. green lasagna noodles. they came out a little thick but they were green (spinach) and homemade and fresh and yummy yummy.  I totally need to roll them thinner next time, but not bad for attempt one

2. baguette:

a little dense but it was still decent. and homemade. and generally yummy

3. I didn’t get to the cookies yet, the kids requested chocolate train shaped cookies and so we had to go with the sugar cookie dough on that one.

4. did I mention my rosemary roasted garlic ciabiatta already? it was ok but I left it in the oven too long on too high heat..opps. but it was still pretty good and the kids were a riot dipping it into the oil w/ herbs. I love it

we make a lot of biscuits around here (including tonight). I can’t get over how flaky and yummy they are. tonight is chicken soup with the homemade stock I made a few weeks ago (via the freezer) and biscuits from scratch. I am feeling right out of little house on the prairie ;)
