The correct oven temperature makes all the difference and now, I can write and test, with happier results. Yesterday's tear bread had a lovely crusty top, and a soft crumb.
Love that.
As for today ... it's after 9:30 in the morning and I'm headed offline to finish the work that I started on the weekend. Didn't get the new flour containers because I decided that I'd go restaurant food grade.
More on those another day. Right now, it's time to get back to work. Happy Monday to all, and to all a yummy day.
What is a gun thermometer? Whacha baking?
ReplyDeleteIt's something my husband likes to shoot at the floor in order to drive Bug nuts. That little red laser, really gets her going.
DeleteNo bakes today, but lots and lots and lots of stuff over the weekend.
I would have no idea what a gun thermometer is!
ReplyDeleteIt's a toy my husband bought to drive the dogs crazy. Point that little red dot anywhere, and she goes bat crap crazy.
DeleteSo fun.
??????????????????
ReplyDeletecheers, parsnip
Hope the pups are doing better, now.
DeleteLittle handgun for reading the temperature of any surface. Though Tim really got it to play with.
Bug and him have a lot of fun. He points and she chases the red dot around like a little bat crap crazy dog.
The right temperature does make all the difference!
ReplyDeleteOne regular oven thermometer for me and one gun thermometer for hubby.
DeleteEveryone is happy.
How went your weekend?
DANG, I'm on a low carb plan so tear bread is tearing me apart. Hahaha
ReplyDeleteWelcome back to blogging? You just doing a few here and there or are you all the way back?
DeleteA pretty new oven. That's awesome.
ReplyDelete"pretty new oven thermometer"
DeleteNew oven, when I do get it, will be named, lots of photos and then plastered all over this blog.
DeleteMight even make the header.
I've never been wished a yummy day before, I like that!
ReplyDeleteHere's wishing you many more yummy days, ahead. Free coffee sounds like a good place to start.
Deletewhen I worked at a grocery store, a guy in deli had one of those thermometers
ReplyDeletehe used it more for fun than work.
The gun one? The are fun.
DeleteGun thermometer? LOL!
ReplyDeletePoint at any surface and it reads the temperature. Point the red dot at the floor, and Bug goes bat crap crazy, chasing the dot all about the house.
DeleteI agree. Oven thermometers help. I had one, and it broke. I need a new one.
ReplyDeleteWe got both on Amazon for a good deal.
DeleteWhat a cool oven! :)
ReplyDeleteJust a new thermometer but it's made my oven very happy.
DeleteHahaha! I love your posts. So much fun :)
ReplyDeleteI can't help it, I see this shit in my head and I draw it. I blame the tablet ... which I'm still super duper loving.
DeleteThanks for the nice words.
Now I want one. I oven is so old and you never know what temperature you are going to get.
ReplyDeleteThe new thermometer has helped my bread. But it took awhile to get the oven to set right as it's an old cranky oven. We call him Fred.
DeleteI should never, repeat, never come to your blog late at night. Now, I want bagel chips, bread, chicken... must think about the scale, not the food....
