Self-isolating at home? Bake your own bread!
Cooking is like painting.... You fill the canvas with colour and create something beautiful! My own version of Smorrebrod with garlic and (homegrown) thyme butter, vine tomatoes, chestnut mushrooms tossed in miso paste, balsamic fried onions, dried wakame and shichimi, orange marmalade and black olives.. Smorrebrod is a Scandinavian open sandwich. I tried this in Denmark a few months ago, but having made this a million times at The Taj Mahal Hotel, making this was extremely nostalgic. Smorrebrod traditionally has "Rugbrod" or rye bread, but this is a homemade bread I baked the same day! Without much adieu, here's the recipe!! Ran out of bread?? Bake one on your own!! Bread flour/Refined flour 500gm Yeast 7gm or 1/2 tbsp Salt 1tsp Sugar 1tbsp Oil 1tbsp Water 300ml Poppy seeds a handful Divide the water quantity in half. Add sugar+yeast in one and salt in the other and dissolve. Wait for the yeast to turn frothy so you know that it is effective.
