My busy day and a question
Exhaustion has set in, but I have lots of bread to keep me company.
Here is a sample of my baking today.

- 2 loaves of banana bread - a bit darker than normal, but I used glass pans for the first time, still wonderful
- 14 of Norm's Onion rolls - always yummy
- 1 loaf and 11 rolls of the Wild Rice and Onion Bread - broke in my banneton!
- 30 sour dough English Muffins using the KA recipe - first time for these. WOW the taste! Need to invest in a better biscuit cutter though. Don't think I will ever be buying an English Muffin again. They are incredible right off the stove, but split and toasted with butter and raspberry jam, OMG!!!!!
I do have one question about the Wild Rice and Onion Bread. This is my second try at these. The taste is awesome, but I was wondering about the texture. Mine are not hockey pucks, but they are fairly dense. Is this the nature of the dough or am I doing something wrong? First time out I only made rolls. This time I split the dough and made one loaf and the rest rolls. I haven't cut into the loaf yet to see if it is as dense as the rolls.
