    • Challah

      • mfto on December 26, 2010

        I made this two day before I wanted to serve for Christmas dinner. First I was going to choose Martha Stewart's recipe which looked the simplest but now that I have EYB, I looked at several books. Rose Levy Beranbaum doesn't seem to like Challah, maybe bad childhood memories, so how could I trust her. But I did learn a lot from reading her recipes. Julia's book seemed to be in the middle of The Bread Bible and Martha Stewart. But Baking with Julia's recipes are not Julia's but other bakers and they were written while ingredients were often only listed in cups. The bread rose beautifully and looked impressive but Beranbaum is right. The bread is a little dry but still had good flavor. I will try the other recipes and report back.

    • Raspberry puree

        Easy, quick, and pure, clen taste of raspberry!

    • Cranberry walnut pumpkin loaves

      • chawkins on April 29, 2012

        I always use butternut squash puree instead of the pumpkin puree. This is an outstanding bread.
