Salt Rising Bread

Reviewed: Dec. 11, 2009
Yesterday, I finished baking three loaves of this bread, and this morning I enjoyed some of the best toast I've had in years. This bread is ideal for toasting. I do admit to cheating a bit, though. I often don't have five-plus hours to baby-sit rising loaves, so I tossed in a half teaspoon of instant yeast as I was kneading it. The salt-rising flavor was still there, but it cut the rise times down significantly. Someday I'll try it without adding the yeast, but for routine use, I think its an acceptable compromise.

Mom's Best Peanut Brittle

Reviewed: May 7, 2009
An excellent, fool-proof recipe. My first batch turned out great. I wasn't sure what kind of peanuts to use (raw v. roasted)until I read into the reviews, though, but that's what the reviews are for. Next time, I think I will add a tablespoon or so of Islay Malt Scotch to give it some kick and a hint of peat smoke flavor. I did that with some pecan pralines a few years ago and it really sent them over the top.
