pork roast smells divine, having a glass of white wine while I am waiting for it..... everyones dinner sounds wonderful! Hope Cyn has a good trip, cant believe she is leaving just as I am back in the saddle.
RCG-that was my menu choice-plus calamari-checked the site!!
Great!...and when you move here it will be about an hour and 20 minute ride for you and hubby to get there....so hang onto the website.. Haven't tried the calamari...yet
if y'all are still reading posts cyn...have a great trip...gonna sign off so I'll be sure to post in the morning before my first class.
Lacey, same thing happened to me this AM, so am slurping espresso. My pork roast turned out really well, think I am going to make arroz con pollo with black beans and sweet fried plantains tonight, y'all have got me thinking about calamari, doggone it!
I'm on 4th cup of coffee-if it wasn't for caffeine and adrenaline I'd be lost.
Good that you saved that website as, when you find yourself daydreaming about NC, it could act like a "booster shot"....and I hope that there is a line at your door after the realtor places the sign!
cyn said she was 99.9% ready to go and was getting up at 4:00 AM...and was working on a couple shots of tequila......
Hopefully all the regs in here will keep posting so this thread will stay alive and well in her absence.
Am off to teach the first class, a long one since it is a field trip as well, but wanted to tell y'all what's for dinner tonight: thin spaghetti aglia y oglio (garlic and extra virgin olive oil), buttered garlic bread, Caesar salad...and the obligatory sweet tea...after all this IS North Carolina...
I package yeast ½ cup warm water + 1 cup warm water 3 TBSP instant potatoes ¾ cup sugar
Dissolve 1 package of yeast in ½ cup warm water. Add instant potatoes and 1 cup warm water. Add sugar, mix well and let sit out for 8 to 12 hours.
TO MAKE BREAD
Ingredients
1/3 cup sugar ½ cup oil 1-1/2 tsp salt 1 cup bread starter 6 cups bread flour 1-1/2 cups warm water
Mix sugar, oil, salt, bread starter, 3 cups bread flour and warm water. Mix in mixer for 3 to 4 minutes, then add the rest of the bread flour. Mix by hand until it pulls away from the sides of the bowl. Knead on floured surface for 5 to 10 minutes. Grease a large bowl generously with oil, put dough in and turn it over to put oily side up. Cover with plastic wrap and let stay out to rise 5 to 6 hours in a non draft place (in oven without heat) until it doubles in size. Punch down dough. Divide into 2 parts. Knead each part on a floured surface for 5 minutes. Put dough in oiled loaf pans and brush with melted butter. Let this rise 4 to 5 hours. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 to 35 minutes until golden brown. Remove from oven and brush with melted butter.
Note: Starter keeps for 2 days in a covered jar.
thnx! I'll make up the starter tonight...Looks like sourdough for Sunday!!
By the way, that Greek Stewed Chicken turned out to be a keeper. The sauce is awesome
