Here is another variation on my “no knead, bake in a Dutch oven” bread. This time, I decided to make a Rosemary (from my own garden) Olive and Sundried Tomato variation. Does Rosemary from my garden count as ‘from my garden’ so ok to use as this week’s Cook/Bake-a-long? Well, even if it doesn’t, boy, is this loaf delicious. I’ve just been dipping it in olive oil, but I’ll bet that it will make a pretty yummy grilled cheese sandwich too!

Here’s a cleaver little twist on your standard biscuit — it’s a muffin instead! I mean, it tastes just like your standard, flakey herb and parm biscuit — great with soup! — but “individually wrapped” like a muffin. Either way, tasty and a great accompaniment to soups or salads, or even for breakfast along side bacon and eggs. Best to use fresh herbs in this recipe, as the dried sort taste chalky!
It’s a bank holiday weekend, the unofficial “start to summer” and we’re in a global pandemic, so Munich trips are off for the time being! Didn’t stop me from wanting to be in the biergarten and craving Bavarian Food. Alas, Brezn (pretzels) are harder to come by (make your own!) and so is Obatza, the cheese spread that you find almost everywhere there. Traditional accompaniments are radishes, chives, gherkins, sometimes cherry tomatoes or even some charcuterie. Ein gutn!
Nothing like starting off a Monday morning with a hearty breakfast. Trader Joes sells this great sliced brioche bread which makes the absolute perfect French Toast so I thought that I would indulge. Light, fluffy with just the right amount of sweetness. And you know what, French Toast doesn’t actually take that long as I managed to make it before my early doors this morning. Might need to make a habit of this to start the week.
I guess this is a bit of a variation on a cinnamon roll bread only instead of a brown sugar and cinnamon paste, it’s filled with a cranberry sauce. I’m not overly pleased at how it slacked out and got some big holes (I suspect the cranberry mixture was too heavy), but it did taste good – sort of like pre-jammed breakfast bread.
