PS: We also snagged some killer raw local honey yesterday. Very, very sweet, but it'll do nicely in bakes.
And that's all from me. Bye!

How to Bake 2000 Year-Old Bread
Tim found this for me last night, and I loved it so much, I had to share. In other news, my energy is returning (immune system issues), and I even got to hit Apple Castle yesterday, where we snagged heirloom apples. More on that later, as I'm about ready to close the lid on our coffins.

That was interesting Ivy. Are you going to try it?
ReplyDeleteI thought it was too. I loved how happy the chef was making the dough. And when he said, "oops."
DeleteIf I got a hold of the formula he used, I would give it a go. For sure.
Total nerdgasm. How cool! That string thing is genius and I like the "stamp" technique too. I was at the Pompeii exhibition on Mother's Day, they should've been peddling real 2000 year old bread instead of all that fake replica stuff at the gift shop! :) Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteFake bread? That's horrible. Yuck.
DeleteI thought the stamp was neat too. And the string for carrying. Cleaver bakers.
I reckon baking "2000 year old bread" would be a super mouldy situation. Was I being pedantic? Must go now and loaf around the house :)
ReplyDeleteI hope you enjoyed your loaf day.
DeleteGlad you are feeling well, and wow, a 2000 year old recipe..
ReplyDeleteThanks.
DeleteGlad you're feeling better!
ReplyDeleteThanks.
DeleteGlad your energy is returning.
ReplyDeleteWas interesting to watch the video, loved the way the bread could be carried too.
All the best Jan
Very fun with that string. I'll try that bit with my own breads. Might tie a bunch of rolls and then Tim can take it to work for sharing.
DeleteInteresting video!
ReplyDeleteHey, Matt. I thought so too.
DeleteGreat video.
ReplyDeleteI sometimes forget about my baking in the oven, but I've never left it for close on 2000 years, not yet anyway.
Pretty neat stuff. Hope you're enjoying your garden and getting lots of goodies from it.
DeleteHoney also goes good with tea.
ReplyDeleteFor sure.
DeleteVery cool post , dear Whisk...
ReplyDeletewe studied Anthropology since childhood...
A great evening to you and yours...
( and my nap ended in couching up blood ... that was a "good ting with this dental work today... and Thank you again dear "Whisk" for your visit and comments at "My little "Crypt"... bless you...
That was very interesting. And the bread looked so delicious! I wonder if my mom learned to make similar types in the village she grew up in. They made EVERYTHING from scratch. And you know what you need now? I GIANT kitchen with an oven like that.
