To celebrate my 365 d fermented homemade red miso I decided to try something I’ve never done before. For ages I’ve seen recipes that use some miso in desserts so I decided to make this crumble cake that uses miso in the crumble topping. Instead of the white miso is substituted my red miso and because it is much stronger than white I used only 2 tbsp of it in the crumble topping.
If you’re curious about how to make miso from scratch this is the link to my post from a year ago.
I’ve been thinking about ice cream a lot lately since it has been so hot here in Toronto, really sticky humid. Going back to my childhood where we never had a single flavour ice cream in the house, it was always Neapolitan because no one could agree on a flavor. I was finally able to find freeze dried strawberries which is what I thought might work for the strawberry flavor and colour without adding too much liquid to the dough. For chocolate I used alkalinized dark cocoa powder.
And I baked a blue or bluish sourdough bread.. with butterfly pea flower and blue berry.
I have a potted butterfly pea flower plant on my balcony that I harvest daily. Some days there were 10 and others maybe 4 or 5. I cold dry it in the fridge by wrapping with a paper kitchen towel. So once a month I get to make a blue bread!
it’s a basic sourdough dough bread at 75% hydration. A combination of flour and seeds. Overnight proofing in the fridge. Baked in a Dutch oven.
hope you like blue bread as much as I
😜 happy baking

My oldest son and his wife moved to Denver and have not found a good bread bakery.
I will visit next week and got the assignment to find one.
Any direction would be appreciated.
They live in Littleton.
Thanks

There have been quite a few posts lately regarding various rye breads, after finally getting my hands on a barley malt syrup, I decided I would try to bake one myself. I had borrowed Southern Ground by Jennifer Lapidus and decided to try baking her Danish Rye bread since I had almost all the ingredients. Being from the south of the US she includes sorghum syrup which I understand is common there, so I subbed the barley malt in for it.
Decided that a combo of Parmesan and Rosemary is what was needed for this weekend’s loaves. Of course, this has porridge in it. I added olive oil to it and skipped my usual yogurt in the dough.
Recipe
Makes 3 loaves
Porridge
100 g large rolled oats
200 g water
30 g Virgin olive oil
Add-ins
200 g Parmigiano Reggiano, grated coarsly
3 g rosemary, chopped finely
Dough
800 g strong bakers unbleached flour
I chanced upon this recipe for wholemeal rolls on Abel Sierra's wordpress blog. I liked the look of them and thought I would give them a try.
Sadly, Abel's blog no longer exists, but it can still be accessed via The Wayback Machine.
Here is a screenshot with my English translation of the ingredient list:
I decided to do a classic English 4hr sponge:
440g BF 13%
389g H2O
3.1g diastatic malt flour
2.65g IDY
DT 26C
This is one of my favorite breads. I used freshly ground Durum flour and bumped up the % along with a slightly higher % of fresh whole wheat.
I cooked the grits and added some butter and grated cheddar cheese just because that’s the way grits should be eaten!
I was very happy with how this one came out. I love the softness the ricotta cheese adds to the crumb and the flavor the grits impart. It’s an excellent bread to grill with some good olive oil and throw on a fresh garden tomato with some mozzarella and your good to go :).
I received a wonderful surprise this week when I opened an unexpected package sent to me by Anita’s Organic Mill. They were kind enough to send me the flours, cereal and swag in this photo.
