ETA (09/09/2018): Recipe for the Shooter's Sandwich added

I rarely expend as much effort on a dish/recipe as I did for this glorified steak sandwich.

And, at the end, I didn't USE the bun I had spent all that effort on.

What perfect bread bowls! And the shooter's sandwich looks yummy, too... I need to get another starter going, maybe I will do so this week.

Next time, dry some of your starter and store it away. :)

PS: I was pleasantly surprise at the way the buns rounded up. They looked pretty flat for the first half of the bake.

I had thought of that, but with our moving and putting everything in storage for 9 months, it wasn't something I found desirable. Now I'm having a devil of a time finding whole rye, so will give it a go with rye flour.

The look fantastic - and I bet they taste just as fine!

Is there a reason you particularly want to use rye flour? I made my 2nd starter with whole wheat (and canned pineapple juice) for the first few days and then I switched over to all purpose.flour and water.

Cool, I just made some bread too today!

When bored, I often bake bread. It freezes well, makes me feel productive and the oven warms up the house especially as fall arrives and the days are getting chilly. Of course, last week, I had the A/C on cause it was almost 90 deg F.

I should know never to look at your posts before lunch. You are killing me here! Killing me!

LOL ... I needed something creative to do with that last steak in the freezer.

I didn't even try last night. Monday nights are usually my easy ones. We had hotdogs and beans. And wine. :P

I love hot dogs and canned beans. :)

Wine sounds good ... I have a bottle of Pinot that's only got a cup or so left in it which I should really kill.
