TWD: Popovers

Very simple. And the first time that I got them perfectly hollow.

TWD: Berry Gallette

We love this. I used raspberries, blueberries, and a peach. Didn't use the honey, but I probably will if I make it again.

TWD: Blueberry nectarine pie

Actually, blueberry peach pie. And it was phenomenal.

TWD: Semolina Bread

Chewy, crispy and soft. The perfect kind of bread.

TWD: Hazelnut Biscotti

We moved this week and I am in love with my new kitchen.


First baking project was hazelnut biscotti.

                                       


They turned out well and I was glad to use the hazelnuts that I had bought ages ago for something fun. These are a good anytime food, which is really dangerous.

Now we just have to figure out how to calm our guard dog.

TWD: French Strawberry Cake

Probably the best part about making this cake was picking the strawberries ourselves. I really wish that we were closer to a pick-your-own farm because these berries were cheap and delicious!


I think my actual cake flopped a bit. I must not have whipped the eggs enough. That baby was thiiiiiin.



But the cake was still pretty and tasted good.


A very good summer treat.

TWD: Oasis Naan

File this one under "Foods That I Love, But Probably Shouldn't Make Myself."


These suckers were a bit time-consuming and messy. I felt like I had a sticky dough explosion on my hands. 


And they just didn't achieve the same softness that naan usually has. Mine were very chewy (probably from all the mixing and kneading), but they didn't feel like naan. Good, but not great. I think I'd rather just get the frozen ones from TJ's.
