• Tsoureki – Greek Easter Bread

  

  Tsoureki, greek easter bread, uses some very unusual ingredients. One is mahlap, the ground up kernels of a mediterranean cherry variety. The other is mastic, a resin that gets harvested on the Greek island of Chios. Those two ingredients are responsible for the very unique taste of the Tsoureki.

• Emmi Einkorn

  

  I need to start naming my bread creations. “The one with whole emmer, whole einkorn and a bit of bread flour, stuffed with a mix of soaked seeds and multigrain flakes” is quite a mouthful. So, for now, I call it Emmi Einkorn. If you want to know how this sourdough bread is made, click…

• English Muffin Bread

  

  English muffins made in a cast iron pan are quite common knowledge. But making them in bread form was new to me. The bread turned out delicious and makes fantastic toast!

• Cheeseboard Bites

  

  I made a cheeseboard for Christmas and there was a bit leftover. No biggie, but unfortunately not every cheese was in the shape to be put on a sandwich. So I made pizza style cheeseboard bites out of the leftovers.
