This last week we had another "Bread Making" class. We tested out several different recipes for making sprouted grain and soaked flour whole grain biscuits, they were yummy! One of the recipes we used cultured coconut milk for the liquid instead of water. The consistency and the taste were very good! I think the first one we tried had us using whey to soak in over night, and using less flour than the recipe called for, so that we didn't have to add more flour.
We discussed the idea of food storage for emergencies, and how to rotate out your stock.
We also tried out a recipe for making a yeast free bread and home made mayonnaise. One recipe for mayo we decided tasted good called for coconut oil in addition to or in place of the olive oil. I think that one tasted best.
I was laying in bed this morning craving buttermilk biscuits the way Lucille made them, my mom's stepmom. I also started thinking of all the recipes I tried for making peanut butter cookies when I was a kid. I tried so many, we were peanut buttered-out by the time I was done. I remember finding or tweaking a recipe I liked really well, but for some reason didn't keep track of it, so I'm going to have to try to recreate that with the ingredients I prefer to use now. I hardly ever use white flour and white sugar any more as they cause a big-time sugar low and fatigue in me, besides messing with my brain chemistry and clouding my mind~
Recipes I found that I would like to try:
Peanut butter cookie recipe using natural unrefined rapadura sugar!! Yum!!
