Tomato Bread


This is a complex recipe that I created. It took a bit of tinkering to perfect but well worth it.


I used my sourdough starter that I use in a few of my breads, this produces a natural yeast (which means less baker's yeast is used) and gives a slight sour taste that complements the sharpness of  tomato passata and the sweetness of the sun-dried tomatoes, combined with slow roasted garlic, fresh rosemary and cold pressed olive oil, makes an excellent bread that can be be served with cheese, cold meats, grilled fish, grilled vegetables, pasta the possibilities are endless.

Hot Dog Cookies



These Hot Dog Cookies are so fun and colourful. I made these for the kids school Festa. The only trouble was they looked so much like real Hot Dogs it confused them!!
I made them from using a sweet cookie dough with lemon zest and lemon icing. Red and yellow food colouring was to make the sausages and mustard (lemon icing)  


Available in a bag of six cookies 1.20€ or a party plate including popcorn 3.50€

Marble Rye Bread

Marble Rye Bread


This is a fabulous sandwich loaf, made from a mixture of light rye flour and wheat flour with the traditional rye bread flavor of caraway seeds. I didn't use molasses that is used often for with this bread instead I used malt barley syrup. The dark rye has a little cocoa. You can't taste the cocoa it complements the barley and nuttiness of the rye flour very well. 
  

As you can see it makes a very eye catching sandwich. One of the best Deli breads around. Most popularly used to make a Reuben Sandwich. I made my own twist of a Reuben sandwich and used smoked gammon, sauerkraut, Swiss cheese, Swiss chard with a smudge of mustard, lightly grilled


And in the morning the kids had apple, raisin and brie with a twist of orange zest and cinnamon. (lucky Kids !!)

This bread takes sandwiches to a whole new standard.....!!
