This is the latest variation on the whole wheat honey bread I've baked. Less honey and with sunflower seeds. Quite good, quite simple to prepare.
I baked three loaves of sourdough yesterday. The dough was lower hydration than I typically do, but they turned out real nice.
I also made pita bread for lunch. The kids loved rolling them out and eating them. I have to remember to make them more often.
Pretty good.My Sunday baking suffered a bit today because we spent the morning out at the Chinese Gardens watching the lion dance for the beginning of the lunar new year celebration.
I had a batch of my pooish bread in the fridge as well as some sourdough with 20% whole wheat. Since the poolish bread was on the damp side, I ended up dimpling it and shooting for something like a ciabatta. Inside, it looked about right.
Nothing terribly interesting baked today. A couple of loaves of my poolish French bread.
And a large sourdough miche-like loaf.
My parents just came back from Paris. Here are a few bread pictures they took for me:
A loaf of sourdough sandwich bread, slightly gummy and poorly shaped but edible.
I am humbled. Baking on foreign soil is very difficult.
Back to my home kitchen this weekend.
