Savory Sweet Potato Bread
Hi,
I'm looking for a recipe for a savory Sweet Potato Bread Recipe that will have a firm crust, and not using cinnamon, nuts, etc. I've looked all over the net but haven't found anything that I'm interested in. If anyone knows of such a recipe and could point me in that direction would be appreciated. Thanks!
Cookbook Authors and relative humidity
When a cookbook author writes a recipe does he/she use a specific relative humidity?? I live in a very dry climate and wonder if I could increase the liquid in my recipes by a constant percentage. Thank you in advance. Pam
Do I HAVE to score baguettes?
Since sourdough has obviously failed, I'm turning my attention to baguettes. I'm having problems with it (solvable ones, I think) but the biggest one is scoring the bread. I've scored it fast, I've scored it slow, I've scored straight, I've scored at an angle, I've used my knives, I've used a razor blade, I've oiled it, watered it, prayed over it, and sacrificed a goat (just kidding) but no matter what I do, the blade hangs up on the dough and drags at it, which collapses the little loaf. If I try to "hold" the dough, it collapses.
Bread Recipes That Use Many Eggs
We have 6 chickens and soon will have more eggs that we can eat. I plan to give many away to neighbors and friends, but I think we will have plenty of extra eggs for baking.
What types of breads use a lot of eggs...any?
bagels no taste
I am new to this forum, I just received the BBA bread book and I tried the bagel receipe. I followed all the directions and yet I found the bagels had no taste and they flattened out. Any input as to what I could have done wrong would be appreciated. I used malt syrup for the sugar. Does malt syrup have a shelf life? Please respond.

Exploding Baking Stone?????
Lately I've had a crazy hankering to make some Trinidadian "Buss Up Shut" roti (a wonderful variation on flatbread), which is done on what they often call a "baking stone" or "tawah". It's a very large griddle-like surface, over direct flame.
Therein lies my quandary....They often call it a "baking stone" but I'm wondering if it is actually cast iron. Is it OK to heat a baking stone (Pampered Chef) over a gas flame?
The instructions say no, but we all know that manufacturers are often ultra-conservative.
Will my stone explode into smithereens if I do this?
