Got a phone call from an old friend from Lubbck. Lih-er has such a good memory, she remembers people I barely can bring to my mind. She told me some stories about these old friends. And then at the end of the call, she told me she has got a great recipe to make a loaf of Chinese sandwich bread. And she had great success with it. I’ve been trying to make our own bread and haven’t been very successful. So when Lih-er sent the recipe today, I went to the grocery with L and bought the ingredients. Spent the whole afternoon making bread. I also found a baguette recipe from watching Laura in the kitchen youtube channel. Ordered the baguette rackfrom Amazon as she suggested and it arrived today. So there are two bread rising right now.
Can’t wait to bake them up and taste them to see how they turn out. So impatiently…..
Later: The baguette is very good. They didn’t rise as much as I thought they should. I used all purpose flour as opposed to the 00 italian flour. I wonder if I should try the bread flour next time. Maybe I will.
