Eat Alberta 2012: Sourdough 101

I have been making bread at home for a few years now but have never managed to be entirely consistent in this front. A few loaves and doughs became second nature, including the extra large batch of dough that we would make and portion into balls for pizza or bread. They would live happily in our freezer, until being thawed overnight and baked the next day. Still... I wanted more in my carb-filled world.

The Teaspoon …And Even More Humbling… February 5, 2012 by admin As I mentioned last week, Sundays are generally a treat for me. A day to unwind and relax a bit.

This weekend however, I am working (gasp!). I’m not going to lie. I’ve been spoiled. I’m spending this weekend covering for another instructor. Although I find all students to be inspiring to some degree, these women are particularly incredible. Education is something that I have always taken somewhat for granted.

Baking Recipe: Basic White Sandwich Bread

For me, these pillowy, slightly sweet loaves conjure PB&J sandwiches in wax paper, french toast on Saturday mornings, and picnics in the park. If you've been thinking of trying your hand at homemade sandwich bread, here's a great recipe to make first.
