Today i will be mostly baking and making bread!
Today i've got energy!
Today has started well!
I'm trying out a very old recipe I've got for wholmeal bread. I've not made it for a while. It uses the sponge method ie warm water to which you add brown sugar and yeast, then add enough flour to make it thick and creamy. You beat this to get lots of air into it then leave it to rise. After it's risen you sprinkle salt over it and add oil. You fold in more flour, keeping the working dough to the side of the bowl. Knead it and put it into the tins then leave to rise again, then bake it!
I'm going to make some hot cross buns and cheese scones too and finish with a carrot cake.
Tomorrow I will be ....... who knows ;-) Just enjoying the feeling of today xxxxxxxxxxx
