Mayonnaise and bread

| 40 Comments | No TrackBacks

Last Saturday was the third Saturday in June.

Why is this particular Saturday better than the second or fourth Saturday?

Last Saturday, and also the first Saturday, were the days on which the Edinburgh Farmer's Market is held. I went there with Dave Duffy, his lovely girl Jenny and Helen Harrington.

We bought freshly picked garlic, broad beans, baby spinach, salad greens, lemon curd, hand churned butter, wild boar sausages, free range eggs, unhomogenized, unpasteurized milk, tomatoes (red, green & yellow), razorneck clams, patty pans (yes!), raspberry juice, carrots, a free range chicken, spinach and tons and tons of other stuff. Basically what you see in the pictures from earlier.

I came back and Helen and I baked bread and made mayonnaise. I've become a huge fan of homemade mayonnaise, although I refuse to use a whisk and break out the electric mixer every time.

I've also stopped making my bread by hand. I know, I know, it's just a sham half-existence I'm leading, but I love those dough hooks. Making bread is so much easier with the dough hooks. Five minutes with the electric mixer and no more wooden spoon elbow.

I've been experimenting with temperatures, ingredients and method and have decided a few things:

1. The only ingredient you need to measure is the liquid - which is sometimes water and sometimes milk, depending on the type of bread I want to make. I always use two and one quarter cups and nothing else needs to be measured.

2. The yeast is more important than the flour. Good, hard flour is still vital (ha ha! Get it?) but the good yeast can get amazing results from some tepid, cheap flour and bad yeast will ruin a loaf. Buy fresh cake yeast - it's cheap, it lasts well in the fridge, and the bread is amazing.

3. Never forget the vinegar. Red wine vinegar is best but I'm still partial to cider vinegar, out of nostalgia. Just a capful is all you need.

4. Braided loaves look great.

5. A butter brushed crust on milk bread shortened with butter; an ice cube in the oven (right at the end) for water loaves shortened with vegetable oil.

6. It's all in the wrist. Some people can knead and others cannot and while it can be learned, it really takes patience on the part of the teacher.

Anyway, I would show you some pictures of bread that I made, but we've eaten it all!

You can't truly say that the third Saturday is better than the fourth since it hasn't happened yet, unless you base the quality of Saturday only on the Farmer's Market.

Nice to know you're still around and kicking.

Ahh. . .the memories. I loved my mother's homemade mayonaise. It had so much flavor. One of my favorite meals was leftover roast chicken slathered with Mimi's mayo. The best. Though it wasn't bad on cold roast beef either. And, no, she didn't hand whisk it. It doesn't substantially improve the flavor, so why do it?
Same with the bread. I used to bake bread (as you all remember) but I don't anymore. I don't really eat bread much and Daddy prefered soft white bread. Now he has made the switch to firmer, more flavorful breads, but it really isn't worth it now. I don't use preservatives so the bread will mold on me.
Then it takes me back to your sixth grade Quest project. And coming home from Girl Scouts to find you and Rachael skating around the kitchen floor trying to clean up the banana that shot out of the top of the blender 2 minutes before I arrived home. I think that was the beginning of you current hobby.

The banana bread event was hysterical!! I walked home from Girl Scouts, saw what had happened, and went right to my room waiting for what I expected to be big trouble :-)

hee hee hee

I remember that too, it was pretty damn fun. I remember when Nate came to me and asked if I wanted to go skating! I'm pretty sure that it was all up when you got home Ma...and the floor was still sticky. DId you actually catch us skating on the wash cloth?

Heyo, I too have a blog as well, however it is over run with spam. Your site seems to be mostly free of that junk. What do you utilize to cease it?

If you're still on the fence: grab your favorite earphones, head down to a Best Buy and ask to plug them into a Zune then an iPod and see which one sounds better to you, and which interface makes you smile more. Then you'll know which is right for you.

What an excellent thread I have never seen before. From now on, I'm with moderator on this point all the way!

WOW!!! Love your site, I have been here a few times now and I really enjoy reading it.

I have learnt so much just from the posts I have read today. You are now bookmarked and I will be back :-)

Thanks

I have been to your site a fair few times now and I really enjoy reading your posts thanks again for making my day a whole lot better. :-)

Any idea why on my screen some of the letters are showing as question makrs instead of normal font? It only happens on this blog, something wrong with the blog or is it from my side?

I've found this site very useful. Now i've higher idea on my auto insurance.Amazing! Image searching yahoo and google for hours just for this and i finally suppose it's on this article!

I discovered this article very up-to-date and informative because it provides wonderful tricks to receive the best possible Life insurance rates and quotes. With this useful information, you'll be able to make your choices more correctly and obtain the very best Life insurance plan for yourself. Plus, there are normally a wide range of resources to help you higher understand your policy.

He,This is a great and usefull blog.Keep up the good work.

Was't looking for this specifically but I took the time to read it and wanted to say thanks A~

A original web , it has long sought a paper document com this web 20.0

Some imitation designer handbags created and can be wrong, and the average person have to be the online auctions for the most part clearly marked on bags that are not real designer handbags.

Wow, posts like this are what keep me coming back to this site. I question what would happen to President Obama's ongoing campaign to decrease government oversight.

I hate when fathers don't disipline their childre in open places.

The Zune concentrates on being a Portable Media Player. Not a web browser. Not a game machine. Maybe in the future it'll do even better in those areas, but for now it's a fantastic way to organize and listen to your music and videos, and is without peer in that regard. The iPod's strengths are its web browsing and apps. If those sound more compelling, perhaps it is your best choice.

Although I believe myself to be a conservative. I am tending to agree with Bush in the respect that he wanted to take on terrorists. In my thoughts Mr Padilla in helping the taliban is a terrorist (Opps my political correctness is wrong here) Anyone whether they are a American Citizen or not that clearly helps a terrorist organizationshould waive Habeas Corpus. I believe we need to look at the laws governing warfare because warfar has changed and Viet Nam changed it. There is no clearly lines of demarcation for each side. There are no longer specific uniforms and so.

Mary, Believe it or not we have some very Great and Truthful people in our History as Americans Although not as Politically Active as Davy Crockett was, i.e. Jim Bowie, Jim Bridger, Fulton, Problem is today most of our Elected Representatives in Washington Have forgotten why they were sent there, and Have Never truly worked Hard in their Lives.

Sports Handicapping is an art of both knowing the odds and the teams. The easiest one to handicap has always been basketball. You also need to make sure you are looking at the time of game. If you truely look at all of the factors it goes from wagering to banking. It isn't that hard to be a sports handicapper, but it's still amazing!

I very thankful to find this web site on bing, just what I was searching for : D as well bookmarked .

Hands down, Apple's app store wins by a mile. It's a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I'm not sure I'd want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.

In love, no one will think of later outcome, even in the silly thought, just let me deeply loved , so , even if willing to die , is not it? I was, probably , too, everything to him Lord, as long as he pleased , willing to let me do anything . Deeply loved one another as long as the leave , then there is no shame ? I was not too throated heart, loved later on , actually want to always have this love , other people have told me it had the same idea ! I am not greedy , but I really like to work with people I love a long marriage . Perhaps , I question the world , how many happy couples , how many people really loved Nenggen spend a lifetime . These problems , I not only ashamed , had promised each other they vowed , and vowed to be together life after life , but after the experience of time , we eventually separated
