Up until now, I was very worried as to the ability to bake anything at all. I just moved into a house the countryside, where everything is beautiful and calm. Calm was exactly was the stove in the house was – heating up the oven to anywhere near baking temp would take hours, in fact it never became hot enough. But luckily, I got my stove fixed just in time to bake the December BBB bread – the Viennese Striesel – presented by Katie of Thyme for cooking.
Since my throat is swelling and my inner temperature definitely seems to be on the way up, I’ll just give you a picture and the link to Katie’s site with the recipe. But I really suggest trying. And my tip is, do try to find mace – that really made a difference and added an interesting note to the taste buds!
Btw, I used 17 g fresh yeast, because my house isn’t quite as cool as Ilva’s.
