My pirate WiFi connection disappeared last week, so I just worked out a bridged router solution with a progressive-scooter-dude-neighbor over the weekend. I’m still two posts late, but they’re coming people. Here’s what I’m working on this very minute:

Inspired by the prolific Beef this last Saturday, I’m making my first ball of Artisan bread. Heard about how to do it on the radio and looked it up on the web. http://splendidtable.publicradio.org/recipes/accompaniments_fiveminute.shtml You can make a batch with 3-4 ingredients and a little stirring, toss the risen result in the fridge for up to 2 weeks, then just slice off a glob any time you want to bake a really tasty bread. This is just the Dough at the beginning of the rising period. The smell is inspiring. When I held the bowl up to the kitchen wall, Ms. Liberty seemed to approve.

Below is what the science experiment looked like after 90 minutes.  The perfect excuse to nibble a bit.  Ahhhh.  Fresh rising dough flavor tastes like a promise you know will be kept =)
