    Twice-Weekly Treat: The Easy and Delicious Bread You’ll Crave!

    Table of Contents

    Ingredients:

    • Dry Ingredients:
        • Bread Flour or Wheat Flour (300g): Provides structure and chew to the bread. Bread flour is ideal due to its higher gluten content, but wheat flour can be used for a softer texture.

       

      • Yeast (3g): The leavening agent that makes the bread rise.
      • Salt (3g): Balances the sweetness and enhances the overall flavor.
      • Sugar (12g): Feeds the yeast and helps it activate for a proper rise.
      • Wet Ingredients:
        • Milk (140g): Warm milk activates the yeast and adds moisture to the dough.
        • Egg (1): Binds the ingredients together and adds richness to the bread.
          • Unsalted Butter (30g): Creates a tender and flavorful crumb.
        • Other:
          • Softened Butter (80g): Used for spreading on the dough before the second rise, adding a touch of savory flavor and flakiness.
        • Black Pepper and Scallions (Chopped): For an irresistible savory topping. You can customize this with other herbs or spices like dried rosemary or everything bagel seasoning.
        • Egg Wash (Beaten Egg): Brushed on the dough before baking to create a golden brown and shiny crust.
        • Sesame Seeds: Add a delightful crunch and visual appeal to the finished bread.

    Instructions:

    1. Activate the Yeast (10 minutes): In a large bowl, combine warm milk, sugar, and yeast. Let the mixture sit for a few minutes until it becomes foamy. This activates the yeast, ensuring a proper rise for your bread.
    2. Combine Dry Ingredients (2 minutes): In a separate bowl, whisk together your chosen flour and salt.
    3. Make the Dough (10 minutes by hand, 4 minutes with a stand mixer): Add the flour mixture and the egg to the yeast mixture. Using a dough whisk or a stand mixer with a dough hook attachment, knead the dough until it becomes smooth and elastic. Gradually incorporate the softened butter, one tablespoon at a time, until fully combined.
    4. First Rise (1-2 hours): Place the dough in a greased bowl, turning it to coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the dough rise in a warm place until doubled in size.
      1. Shape and Second Rise (1 hour 15 minutes): Punch down the dough, shape it into your desired form (loaf or batard), and place it on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and let it rise again for 30-45 minutes.
      2. Prepare the Topping and Bake (45 minutes): Brush the risen dough with egg wash and sprinkle with your topping mixture of black pepper, chopped scallions, and sesame seeds. Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F) and bake the bread for 25 minutes, or until golden brown.

  • Delicious Turkish-Style Eggplant Recipe

    Delicious Turkish-Style Eggplant Recipe

    Delicious Turkish-Style Eggplant Recipe

    Table of Contents

    Ingredients:

      • 2 large eggplants
      • Salt (to taste)
      • 3 eggs
      • Ground black pepper (to taste)
      • Paprika (to taste)
      • 1 tsp mustard
      • Olive oil (for frying)
      • 150g breadcrumbs
    • 2 tbsp flour
    • Italian herbs (to taste)

    Instructions:

    Step 1: Prepare the Eggplants

      1. Slice the eggplants: Cut the eggplants into thin, even slices. You can either slice them into rounds or lengthwise strips, depending on your preference.
    1. Salt the eggplants: Sprinkle a generous amount of salt over the sliced eggplants. Let them sit for about 15-20 minutes to draw out excess moisture and bitterness. Afterward, rinse the eggplant slices with cold water and pat them dry with a kitchen towel.

    Step 2: Prepare the Egg Coating

      1. Beat the eggs: In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, mustard, a pinch of salt, ground black pepper, and paprika. The mustard will give the coating an extra layer of flavor and help the seasoning stick to the eggplants.
      2. Prepare the breading: In a separate bowl, mix the breadcrumbs with Italian herbs and a little more black pepper or paprika for extra flavor. In another small dish, place the flour, which will help the egg mixture stick to the eggplant slices.

    Step 3: Coat the Eggplants

      1. Dredge the eggplants: First, lightly coat each eggplant slice with flour. Shake off any excess flour.
      2. Dip in egg mixture: Next, dip each slice into the egg mixture, ensuring they are well coated.
      3. Cover with breadcrumbs: Finally, press each slice into the seasoned breadcrumbs, coating both sides thoroughly. The breadcrumbs will give the eggplants a beautiful, crispy texture once fried.

    Step 4: Fry the Eggplants

      1. Heat the oil: In a large frying pan, heat a generous amount of olive oil over medium heat. You want enough oil to shallow fry the eggplants, so they turn golden and crispy.
      2. Fry the eggplants: Place the coated eggplant slices in the hot oil. Fry for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Be sure not to overcrowd the pan, so the slices cook evenly.
      3. Drain excess oil: Once fried, remove the eggplants from the pan and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb any excess oil.

    Step 5: Serve

    Serve the crispy eggplant slices hot with your favorite dipping sauce or alongside a fresh salad. These eggplants are crispy on the outside and soft and flavorful on the inside, making them the perfect accompaniment to any meal

    Cooking Tips:

      • Salting the eggplants: Salting the eggplants beforehand is an important step to remove their natural bitterness and help them crisp up better when frying.
    • Frying temperature: Be sure not to overheat the oil, as it can cause the eggplants to burn before they’re fully cooked through. Medium heat is ideal for getting that golden crust.
    • Baking option: For a healthier version, you can bake the coated eggplant slices in the oven. Simply place them on a parchment-lined baking tray and bake at 200°C (390°F) for about 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through until golden and crispy.

    3. 80 g blueberries
    4. 50 g avocado oil (+ extra for greasing)

    Preparation of the Oats
    1. Place the oat flakes in a mixing bowl.
    2. Add the hot water and gently stir with a spatula.
    3. Allow the mixture to sit for approximately 5 minutes. This will allow the oats to absorb the water and soften.

    2. Incorporate the stevia sweetener, vanilla extract, and 50 g of avocado oil into the mixture.
    3. Mix thoroughly until you achieve a smooth and homogeneous consistency.
    Apple and Blueberries
    1. Peel the apple, remove the core, and slice it into thin pieces.
    2. Add the sliced apple to the oat mixture, stirring carefully to distribute the apple evenly.
    3. Next, incorporate the blueberries, ensuring they are well integrated with the other ingredients.
    Prepare the Mold
    1. Grease a rectangular glass mold with a splash of avocado oil. This will prevent the dessert from sticking to the mold.
    2. Transfer the oat mixture to the greased mold and ensure it is level and even.
    Baking
    1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) to get it ready for baking.
    2. Place the mold in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 50 minutes. Keep an eye on it; the dessert should turn golden brown.
    3. Once the baking is complete, remove the dessert from the oven, cover it with a kitchen towel, and allow it to cool.
