Life changing icebox dough

A couple months ago I bought the book Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day: The Discovery That Revolutionizes Home Baking. It’s nigh onto life changing.

Craisin bagels

Oh my moly.

Can one addition change a really great recipe into a really amazing recipe? You bet your Red Rider it can. Especially when that one addition is a bag of Craisins.

I started with the recipe for super simple bagels. You remember this, right? Flour, water, yeast, salt. I said they were simple! [...]

Super simple bagels

I’ve so long been intimidated by bagels. I mean bagels. A staple of NYers past and present. The extent of my NYC experience involves dragging a ridiculous number of kids through Grand Central Station and into Times Square, and having unheard of amounts of fun doing it. Toys R Us anyone?

It’s always good to [...]

Pain de Mie

Do we all remember my Pain de Mie fail? Cute, right? Well this is what happens when you actually have a pain de mie pan:

Square bready goodness.

Following this recipe from King Arthur Flour (I know, you’re shocked), I let the bread rise to within about 1/2 inch of the top of the pan, [...]

KAF whole wheat sandwich bread

The Kiddo loves this bread (that’s it in the header up there). That alone earns the recipe a special place in my kitchen. Plus, it’s EASY, and so good! Store bought bread no longer compares — this is the good stuff.

I actually don’t stray a bit from the KAF recipe, so I’ll let you follow [...]
