I'm clearly feeling hungry today. I heard about this book while staying at a bed and breakfast in Charlottesville VA a few months back.

Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day

I bake my own bread anyway, but this book had some great ideas. Now we have a fresh loaf almost every day. And if you peruse the site, look for the English muffin recipe. Out-bloody-rageous. :laugh:

Uhoh. I'd be in th' doghouse for sure. Herself has embarked on her low carb regimen. I'd want to do every bread on there!!!


...anybody have a GOOD recipe for Thai rice noodles? The noodles themselves. I KNOW what to do with 'em after I have 'em. All I find are recipes for cooking WITH 'em as ingredient.
 
That site and book look really interesting. I really want to get into doing some baking on a more regular basis, so maybe this will finally get me over the hump.

...or it will just make my current hump, located just above my belt, even larger.

Doc- for low carb check out the Japanese shirataki noodles, made with flour from yam root, there is also a rice substitute I think. There is also a tofu version, but they have way more carbs.

Don't ask how I know.
 
Yes Bill, "The Foxfield Inn" out on Barracks Road, very nice place to stay. Lotsa blueblood money out there in God's country, and the Inn is near Foxfield horse race track (point-to-point & steeplechase).

FWIW, Barracks Rd. here is named for a revolutionary prisoner of war camp (thus "Barracks" Rd.) that was in that area, housed a number Hessian soldiers captured in NC and VA battles toward the last two years of the war.

Thomas Jefferson became good friends with one Hessian officer who was imprisoned there (can't recall his name). Jefferson invited him to Monticello (about 5 miles from where you stayed at Foxfield) on a few occasions.

End of today's history lesson . . . :crazy:

I have been on a bread baking kick for the last few months. Nothing like a loaf of fresh bread straight out of the oven, a bit of cheese and a bottle of wine.....
 
Awww, Yis. Now I'm jonesin' again.
