There are times when I am not updating this blog very frequently. This doesn't mean that I am not busy baking and experimenting. In fact I am quite busy exploring new methods and new (to me, at least...
One of the things that make baking so interesting to me is the fact that the difference between being completely lost, with flour and dough covering everything in the kitchen, and between spectacular...
Here is an amazing process caught on camera: the "puff" of a homemade pita bread in our oven. (Please excuse the dirty oven window -- our oven is a hard working one.)Homemade pitas are delicious and ...

Epi bread (from fridge dough). Not the most successful shaping, but I find it is hard to do right with fridge dough (both because it's cold and very soft). Still it was great, especially because I ba...

In our fridge door there's a compartment called "Dairy Corner". Of course we never store any dairy in it, but we do use it for some of our nondairy items. If anything, the nondairy corner is too smal...
