So as to not be a total lump on my week-long break, I’ve set a challenge for myself. I want to try and cook or bake something new at least 4 times this week. (I know we’re going out a few nights) Today’s quest was to try baking challah (don’t pronounce the “c”) bread. It was not a resounding victory, as part of it collapsed a bit, but it was tasty! I’m not sure if I didn’t let it rise enough at some point (it needs to rise twice), or if it did something weird in the oven, but it definitely doesn’t look like to quite should. Oh well, it was good and our house still smells like baking bread, so I’ll count it as a win!
Tasty tasty bread! The collapsed part tastes good too. I suspect that the bread didn't quite finish rising before going into the oven, so it split while baking.
The soup was good too, but she didn't reveal it's nature yet.
Nom! I've been baking a lot too and it's so fun to do it, make the time for it, and eat it. Much tastier than store bought stuff and more satisfying. 😀 Peanut butter banana chocolate chip muffins are ready to come out of the oven right now…
