Good morning!
So it was ANOTHER rainy day so I decided to try another recipe from the Cast Iron Cookbook from Taste of Home.
This was my first time doing any kind of bread except cornbread from scratch, by the way...
The Mrs. supervised the kneading process and kept saying "More flour" LOL!
The dark specks are chives. I used leftover mashed potatoes and I usually add chives to mashed potatoes. Oh well.
After about 10 minutes rising it got separated into 16 balls and into a 10" skillet.
The book called for 2 8" pans but they fit perfectly in the 10". Go figure...
After rising in the pan for a half hour they went into the 400 degree oven.
They were done in roughly 20 minutes.
Not bad for a first timer, if I say so myself :-)
And here I thought sausagemaking was messy but breadmaking has it beat! Flour everywhere!
After today it's supposed to be rainy all next week (I'm getting worried about my tomatoes) so you may be subjected to more C.I. cooking....
Thanks for looking and have a wonderful day!
