Ahhh yes, the bread I made the other day. Well, overall it turned out pretty well.
I thought perhaps I let it rise too long the second time, but it didn’t seem to matter.
It had great texture and good taste.
And, like the other loaves I’ve done using the same receipt,
it made for a somewhat
dense bread.
In any event, we had some perfect day-old bread to use
for “A Made Dish,” (aka pain
perdu or French toast) from Martha Washington’s Booke
of Cookery. Not a crumb was
left over. HUZZAH!
Oh, and incidentally, here’s the FIRST photo taken with my “new” old digital
camera (courtesy of e-bay)! It’s taken awhile to learn all the ins and outs
of using it, let alone downloading photos onto my computer, but, well,
not bad for a start, ay?! Of course, I took the dang thing to my Fireside
Feasts program, but there wasn’t time to grab and shoot. I was just
too busy. dagnabit. What I need is a photo-taking assistant!
