bake: jalapeno cheddar bread.
By now, you know I love baking bread–especially the no knead variety cooked in a dutch oven and steamed perfectly for a crisply outer shell. Enter my kicked of version of a simple no knead bread. To this dough, I added three generously large jalapenos to the dough, as well as heaping cups of cheddar…

bread.
This winter has been all about turning the oven on for extra warmth. It was 3 degrees here without the wind chill this morning when I left for work. I’m thinking baking a loaf of bread when I get home tonight is in order. What are your favorite bread books? I know its easy to…

baking.
We’ve had four major winter storms here in just under 3 weeks. It’s been hell trying to dig out, and this coming from a seasoned New Englander who does in fact enjoy snow. Dare I say Mother Nature can have this one–I give, I can’t take much more. On top of all this great white…

baguettes.
I’m getting pretty boss at making crunchy french baguettes. This recipe is from Food52 and it really does matter creating the steam oven with a combination of cast iron skillet heating at length in the oven, ice cubes, and a hot pizza stone. These were so crispy on the outside, chewy inside. The 3 tbsp…

honey oat.
Delicious homemade bread for morning toast. There’s nothing better, especially in winter. Please send your favorite bread recipes my way. I’m feeling the urge to bake with lots of gluten.

cinnamon swirl.
The smell of butter and cinnamon and sugar baking into a melted delicious yeast bread is my total jam. There’s nothing better, especially when a Nor’Easter outside whips winds and threatens the power on several occasions (good thing for gas ovens!). This is a simple cinnamon swirl country loaf. No raisins. No frills. Just deliciousness.…

artisanal toast.
It’s all the rage; which is exciting news for this toast lover. So, this is my take on it. A honey oat rustic loaf made last night. And this morning, lightly toasted, smothered in salty butter and then a delicious plum and apricot jam made by a coworker. Bliss. What other combinations I should try?

honey oat rustic loaf.
Baked this bread last night. The recipe was so easy, I had everything on hand in my cubbards or fridge, and the results were perfect. One of the best loaves I’ve ever made; crispy on the outside, soft on the inside. I’m using this loaf to try my own hand at the artisanal toast trend…

cinnamon country loaf.
I love making cinnamon country bread. So easy, perfect for a snow day, which we so graciously had last midweek. More shots of the bread making here.

cinnamon and sugar, 12.2012
One of the easiest, most favorite, breads to make–cinnamon swirl bread, buttery goodness. I love those things I never have to spy a recipe for in order to make. Perfect on a snowy morning.

cuban rounds, 10.8
On days off, baking bread makes the most sense. Especially when the weather turns, its nice to turn on the oven and work dough between my fingers.

cuban round bread (finished).
The finished product–gorgeous, crusty Cuban round bread (from a few weeks back). This is baked in a steam bath oven and it comes out with a beautiful crunchy outside, chewy middle. You can check out more snaps at the baking flickr set (its new! I’ve finally decided to actually catalog the millions of food photos…
