(oooo, i hate that title glitch!)(harrumph.)
so today guthrie and i had our first culinary science class. he learned:
one quarter cup= 4 tablespoons,
one Tablespoon= 3 teaspoons,
how to grind flour,
why to grind flour,
how to combine water, yeast, and sweetener,
the origins of sorghum,
why yeast needs sugar,
how to knead dough by hand,
that kneading dough by hand is harder than it looks,
that a light bulb in the oven really makes it warm enough to rise dough,
how to punch down a risen ball of dough,
why to be gentle with dough when forming a loaf,
what egg white does for the top of a loaf,
why i spill water in the oven after putting in the bread,
how to divide a single drop into four parts,
how to curdle goat milk with microbial rennet and yoghurt culture,
and not to end a sentence with a preposition in front of his mother.
all valuable lessons that ended with two loaves of bread and half a gallon of milk on its way to chevre. and we'll do it all again next week! (or when the bread runs out.)
lovepeace
