- the NYS tyrants believed the Annual method was bad and forced them to change it -
Interesting! What is the Annual Method?
They did grow figs and grapes, yes? I know these fruits have a yeast on them, maybe the leaves as well?
You are right. Emmer wheat is available, also known as Farro, also available. They made a choice to use something else to make a political statement about “climate change”.
So basically, an old loaf was discovered and they used other ingredients but made it in roughly the same shape using modern bakery tech and called it a replica.
Ok.
“What is the Annual Method?”
LOL! I have no idea, but Autocorrect does.
I meant “Amish”.
LOL! Sounds intriguing though, doesn’t it?
Is the Amish Method just sourdough, I wonder?
I could see The People’s Republic of New York putting their Nannies on that and stopping it.
Been 4 years and still not sorry I moved out there.
“Is the Amish Method just sourdough, I wonder?”
Not much like sourdough, except there’s a “mother” with both.
I lived in AK for 20 years, and my aunt made sourdough bread all the time. Salt rising has a very distinctive flavor and texture — and smell for sure.
She made sour dough, pulled it out of the oven, burned herself, and then promptly dropped it on the floor.
I picked it up and blowed it off. FLOOR BREAD! :D
Thanks for that, I’ll do some looking :)
I’ve had a sourdough starter going for 2 years, with a goal of keeping it “not too sour”.
Some historical books I read talk about salt bread but I never bothered to look up modern day methods for it.
My kitchen is my lab and my playground, I’ll look it up and give it a try.
No, but Pfizer might........
My wife’s first attempt at biscuits in 1979 could have been used by the NHL...................
