Look at Me!
A couple hours after I tossed all my ingredients for stew into the crockpot, I decided we needed a little bread to go with it… so here is what I did about it:
Yeast, sugar and water bubbling up while I scalded milk, melted butter and dissolved sugar and salt on the stove…
beat three eggs, then put all three bowls of liquid together…
Added 5 cups of flour and started mixing it in…
Put another cup of flour on the counter, moved my dough onto it…
Mixed in a bunch of the counter-flour, put it back in the bowl to rise for an hour…
Shaped it into rolls, let it rise another hour…
Baked it for 12 minutes, and out came these delicious beauties!
Yes, that’s right, I made bread. Well, actually, rolls. With yeast. All by myself. Oh, except for the 5 or so calls I made to my mom during the process… but I did it! And I now feel much more comfortable with the process, so I hope to try out more new recipes, and experiment with the ones we have until we find something that we absolutely love, but in the meantime, these were really very very good, I thought. Especially so with the homemade stew I had going in the crockpot while these baked… what can I say, I’m pretty much amazing. :)
