Bread Basket for Götz von Berlichingen
Dear baking friends who joined in my challenge to create a Bread for the Knight with [1]the Iron Hand: [2]
YOU FILLED MY BASKET WITH 30 WONDERFUL LOAVES!!!
You thought about breads that were worthy of a famous knight from the middle ages, and, also, could please the palates of today's guests of Schlosshotel Götzenburg [3].
Not only your enthusiasm and creativity is amazing - your comments about medieval knights in general, and Götz von Berlichingen in particular, are highly entertaining.
Some of you even tried to figure out what practical considerations might influence a pastry chef's decision on what kind of bread to choose - like using leftovers from the restaurant kitchen and easy availability of ingredients.
I translated all German recipes into English and vice versa. So, if you don't want to be at the mercy of Google-Translate (rather pathetic with bread formulas, but always good for a laugh!), please contact me [4] and I will send you the recipe.
Please, follow me to my blog "Brot & Bread" [5] to see the whole bread basket for the Knight with the Iron Hand.
