Hi, y’all. 🙂
Happy hump day. 🙂
Sorry for the absence last week. I’m dealing with fatigue and the usual autoimmune stuff. Plus I’m working on a little project of sorts and it’s taking up most of my focus right now.
Since I didn’t post last week I didn’t get to say this then but RIP, Merle. 🙁 I’m so thankful to have been able to see him in concert in the late 80’s…and even more thankful for having grown up in a household full of his (and all his friend’s) music. Thanks for that, Mama B and Papa Bear. 🙂
Can y’all believe I didn’t bake anything at all last week?
That’s already changed this week though. 🙂 It’ll be at the end of the post.
🙂
Making my first pot of bone broth tonight. I’ll let y’all know how it turns out.
This week’s TV? Finished up Bosch on Amazon Prime. Didn’t enjoy the second season nearly as much as the first but still recommend them both.
This week’s fashion WHAT? That’s a dress not two separate pieces.
😉
Ok so remember last month or so when I told y’all I’d let you know how freezing a batch of gfJules dough worked? Well I tried the dough yesterday. First I took it from the freezer and put it in the icebox to thaw overnight.
Then…rising tip? Put it in a bowl and then in a Ziploc. Then put in the bathroom after a shower. Close the door and let it rise. Before somebody emails about putting food in the bathroom. It’s in a zipped Ziploc…that was zipped up in the kitchen…before moving into the steamy bathroom.
I decided to try Pioneer Woman’s Orange rolls with the batch of frozen dough made from gfJules flour.
Orange marmalade, butter, brown sugar. I had less dough than her recipe so I just eye balled my amounts.
I didn’t get any pics after rolling and before baking. Sorry.
But these are the only pics that are really necessary. 🙂 The dough rolled beautifully. It held up to baking. And as you can see was crazy moist. Is there anything this flour can’t do? If there is I don’t wanna know about it. 🙂
Now…I will add that while the dough was great I didn’t care for the orange aspect of the roll. She does say in her recipe that the marmalade is bitter and it most definitely was.
Really I just wanted to know if it was possible to freeze yeast dough made with the gfJules flour. It is and I was very impressed.
Ok that’s all for today. See y’all soon. 🙂
