This is probably the best recipe for pizza that we have found. It is also very easy. Years ago, Andrea wrote the recipe down from memory. For the longest time we just mixed everything and used the dough immediately, but Andrea learned in culinary class to let the dough sit overnight and the crust is much better.
While living in Slovakia, Allan was gone many nights. Often I would go to the office with him, play on the computer a little and just be lazy while he worked in the other room. I found a few bagel recipes that were good, but this is my favorite.
Mark decided to surprise us with bagels. He and Megan made them with shredded white cheddar cheese and they were wonderful.
We learned this recipe from Rose H., a friend in Swaziland. The dough can be made early and set aside until ready to braai (grill). We often enjoy this instead of store bought rolls when we cook outdoors.
Not quite as good as English Muffins, but a lot less work! This makes great toast. It always bakes up with a flat top, so I only let it rise to the top of the pan.
I do not remember when I was given this recipe from Mom M. If you use yellow corn meal, the bread will have a light yellow tint.
Megan thinks it tastes like hot cross buns but without the icing.
Oma gave this recipe to Mark many years ago after she made them for Easter dinner and he really enjoyed them and wanted to make more. Her original recipe did not call for most of the spices, but we prefer them with it.
If you are looking for a sweet, mall like pretzel, this is not it. This is also a good recipe for adding sourdough discard.
This is a simple, dairy and gluten free biscuit from my friend Mari G. The biscuit does not contain eggs, but adding a hard boiled egg and fruit is a simple way to make an easy picnic lunch.
After making a batch of bread dough, we discovered that our oven died. Instead of throwing the dough away, we decided to try making flat bread with it. The bread turned out much better than expected.
We made the dough and let it sit overnight. The first batch of bread (after about 18 hours sitting) was perfect. The second night’s bread was still good but was starting to taste a little strong (sitting close to 32 hours). We recommend letting the dough set no longer than 24 hours.
