Food anyone?

Here are the pictures from start to finish of my Buttermilk Bread.

That looks almost too good to eat! Thanks for the photos.

Put the money toward a good bread making machine Richard. ...... I do recall, however, a couple of the first loaves were tossed into the garden for the birds. In the spring when the snow melted they were still there. I eventually broke them up with a pickaxe.

We have looked at these machines, but I think I prefer to have a go at hand made first. I love the pick axe tale

A worthy investment Richard. Baking is one of the many skills we're losing to mechanization and industrialized food production.

Of all my memories of my Grams, the one that sticks with me and makes me smile to this day, is of her baking.
She would make bread and rolls twice a week. Because she was so short, she'd stand on a chair at the kitchen counter, to get the leverage she needed to properly knead the dough. Tiny she was but she had upper arms like Popeye.

Thx AA. Yes, we enjoyed cake making. Bread is a natural progression. My brother and I loved it when mum baked. The smell of new bread filled the house ... Mmmmmm

...........
Richard an excellent site to learn how to bake bread is The Fresh Loaf. .........I started baking when I was a young kid because my dad liked baking bread and pizza making. I almost became a pastry chef but an apprenticeship came up and I became a restaurant chef,but baking has always been my passion.

Thx for the site info, MadChef. I have it bookmarked. It will certainly be useful. I would like to try wholemeal alternatives to naan and baguettes, if possible. My wife is allergic to white breads, white rice etc. so, the investment in baking would pay off handsomely if I could crack that problem

Richard, as you are talking about bread making have you come across Judges bread, .....

Delicious, Gabriel. I think I have seen their bread in a couple of shops near home. A small bakery in our area is called Plaxtol Bakery. Their cakes are brilliant.

Another favorite bread they make is a cinnamon swirl with a frosted top. Oh that is so good with a little bit of butter. Great in the morning!

That's one of our favourites. A lasting memory of our first visit to Canada was the smell of fresh cinnamon bread filling a shopping mall. We had to stop for elevensies...

It's been a cold windy day, so I prepared some warming food.....







I scored the squash, sprinkled it with salt and pepper and brushed honey over. The pie was shop bought beef & ale with a puff pastry topping.



While the food was in the oven, I knocked up a stir fry.




Ready to serve.







Plated up hot food.

Great food, Richard! I'm almost tempted to lick the screen on my iPad.

Can't wait till my husband comes home with fondue fixings -- sweet and savory. I hope they've not run out of the good bread. I like a ciabatta best.

Richard--that looks like a fantastically delicious spread!! Great job!!

Kaykaykay -- fondue sounds delicious as well! Love ciabatta bread, but any bread to me tastes great!
