This loaf of bread had me worried.
I paused my breadmaking session while Dustin and I went for an impromptu two and a half hour walk, and stuck my bread in the fridge to tame those hungry little yeasts while we were gone, which I’ve heard is a legitimate thing to do. But when I returned from my walk, I opened the refrigerator door in anticipation, and my bread had risen so high that it was squished up against the top of the next shelf!
If I were a calm and patient baker, I would have... Read Full Story

I love this recipe. My friend made it for my birthday one year and I asked for the recipe. I've been making it ever since. It's super moist and flavorful and you would have no idea that it's vegan. Even if you watched me make it you would still argue with me that it must have eggs and butter. No ma'am, no animals were harmed in the making of this dessert. Enjoy!

"A boneless wing is a complete misnomer but consumer acceptance has been rather good," said Jim Robb... Read Full Story
