As the saying goes, we are living in
interesting times. As a baker, finding
flour and yeast has been challenging, and I’ve resorted to bartering and using
unconventional sources. I did find a
16-ounce package of yeast buried in my pantry, which was a plus. And, I have an order placed with a local
bakery for a 16-ounce package of instant yeast along with some bread flour.
This month’s BBB bread, Easy American Cottage
Loaf, from Kitchen of the Month, Cathy, calls for a variety of dry ingredients,
all of which I had! Yay! I did revert to the original recipe, and used
the bread machine option as well as my 1 ½ quart soufflé dish. The bread turned out well and has a great
flavor and texture. Wonderful toasted.
Don’t miss out on this easy and
delicious bread. As a Buddy, share your
experience and photographs with Cathy before the end of the month. The recipe can be found either on Cathy’swebsite or the Red Star Yeast website.
I’m too busy baking to say much more!
Stop by the websites of the other Babes to see how they did.
