a toronto food blog
It can only mean Friday is just a day away, right?
I’ve been craving a lot of comfort food and baked goods lately. While they’re not exactly what I was looking for, I eventually decided to make the easiest things I could this past weekend: bread and another simple cake using up some overripe pears. Recipe for the cake can be found here and the bread is Jim Lahey’s (I coated the crust with thick cornmeal for extra crunchiness).
P.S. I’m kinda obsessed with bread making.
Yes yes yes bread!!!! Have you become successful in this bread making business? Are you satisfied?! So glad to see!
Haha, it’s been pretty good – the first time I made it in December worked out fine, I don’t know why I freaked out the second and third time and changed the ratio. Turns out I was using too much water!
i know i already said this in my reply to your comment on my blog, but i’ll ask again — where on earth did you get that tablecloth!? i want it! and as always, love your gorgeous photos patricia — the second one is my favorite of this post
It’s a tea towel from a Toronto store, but they also have an online presence: http://www.bookhou.com/ and http://www.shopbookhou.com/! They have beautiful, earthy products…I already have a pouch and a coin purse from there :)
wow i love their store! thanks :)
