Hi everybody,I live near Philly, I love to make bread and I love to meet people interested in bread making.If you live around and would like to meet other amateur bakers please join our group, here is the link.Now a question: did anybody attend the bread baking classes offered by " le pain quotidien?"" in NY? I booked my class for May 22nd and I can't wait to go.
I am a NJ transplant in Omaha, Nebraska and am dying to make Portuguese rolls the way I could get them while living in NJ. They are not the Portuguese sweet bread that I have read much about elsewhere on the site, but rather are oval shaped rolls that have been folded and left to rise to create a crease down the middle. They are plain old white and the crust is a little chewy. They typically do not have a very hard crust, which makes them perfect for sandwiches because you don't kill your gums or your teeth trying to bite into them.
