On another topic, I tried on those vintage wedding dresses and those ladies were petite! I find now that I've shrunk 2 inches from my back breaks that my torso is incredibly short but my legs are still like 5'6" legs. It sounds cute doesn't it? It sort of is except that all dresses are too long in the torso which is why I may have to switch to empire waist clothing :). There's always a solution.
Recipe time, I've been cooking my brains out and we have four choices today: Vegan blueberry muffins, vegan baked beans, vegan brown bread with rosemary and mustard or vegan peach pie. Hard to choose right? How about we do vegan brown bread today and then vegan peach pie tomorrow in honour of Canadian Thanksgiving?
Vegan Brown bread with Rosemary and Mustard (serves 2-6)
 |
| This lonely piece is all that's left after we stuffed our faces last night |
3 cups whole wheat flour
1 1/2 tbsp active dry yeast
4 tbsp brown sugar
1 tsp salt
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp rosemary (diced if fresh or crushed if dry)
1 tsp prepared mustard (mine was mango flavoured :))
Mix the warm water, sugar, yeast, oil and 2 cups flour in a bowl and leave it for 30 minutes with a cloth draped over (but not touching) the mix. Once doubled in size, mix in remaining flour and leave to double again with that cloth draped over it (30 min-1 hour). When it's bigger still, put the dough in an oiled bread tin and let it rise again with a cloth over it in a warm place (1 hour). Sprinkle the rosemary over and using a spoon spread the mustard over the top of the bread dough then pop it in the oven for 35 minutes at 350 degrees Fahenheit. Take it out and let Kill munch to his heart's content :).
* I'm not so clever so I just mucked around with the recipe from this website: http://allrecipes.co.uk/recipe/1594/gran-s-white-loaf.aspx
