Food Get Baked and Take Pictures

i'm surprised no one's taken a self portrait myspace shot of themselves right after a bongload with their eyes glazed like a donut for this thread yet.

good lookin sweetbreads though regardless!

 

OK! We made a pretty epic dinner last night.

Here it is:


That's home made pite bread (not pita!) with home made roasted red pepper cheese, home made hummus and store bought stuffed olives. Heaven, I tells ya.

 

Oops, that should read "pide" bread, not pite. Mmmm pide bread.

 

Made a loaf of Focaccia bread last night. Don't look at the part that has already been cut and eaten, I'm bad about forgetting to take pictures.

 

Lookin' pretty damn good there, Eden. Needs some diced onions, red pepper, and maybe a little garlic on there!

 

If I had red peppers to roast, I would have. I'm thinking about next time roasting red peppers and garlic, mashing them together with a dash of olive oil and brushing a layer on top before I bake it.

I wanted to take pictures of the bread I just made, but it did not rise for the second rise. I've used different recipes for just simple breads and nothing puffs up. It is pissing me off to no end. I think it's my yeast. Friday is going to be, find motherfucking BAKER'S YEAST. It's the last step, if my bread still fucks up after this, I'm quitting baking. Mostly... well probably not, but something needs to change.

 

Gluten-free Pitas!

 

I just saw this tip and thought of this thread. I use vanilla pods quite a bit (we get them quite cheaply in Bali) and if you use them, this looks pretty cool.

I'd never heard of grinding the dried pods and using them like you would cinnamon. I always put my used pods in sugar to make vanilla sugar.

 

Here's the dinner loaves I baked a few days ago. They were effin delicious.

 

ace0spades - Looks like a nice pair. I can see myself making loaf to them all night

 

I find myself leaning closer to the monitor...like I'm going to be able to smell that bread rising/baking.
I really miss the entire process involved with the gluten flours.
Hey, an idea just happened, I could still make it and then give it away!
Once in awhile I'll make gluten-free bread....but eh, it just doesn't thunk the same way when you test for doneness.
Nice thread. Nice pics.

 

We made loaf to them all night and then again during breakfast.

 

Jeez... too bad this thread is so very dead. Would've loved to see what all you grainheads baked up during the pandemic lockdown.
