October Plum Torte

This torte recipe have been published in the newspaper for the longest time. A few attempts were made to end the re-publishing of it but there were always many requests from the readers to have it published every year. 

Whole Wheat Sourdough Waffles

Soft Sourdough Cinnamon Buns

Soft.Cinnamon.Rolls. These were a treat to have with a cup of tea or coffee. They were not too sweet (some may find it not sweet enough as compared to the store bought ones) as they were filled with only dark brown sugar. The higher content of molasses in the dark brown sugar gave the sweetness a more complex flavour. I really liked these rolls and made another batch the following weekend. 

Rosemary, Tomatoes Sourdough Focaccia

This sourdough focaccia was really fun to make and it is very easy to handle for a high hydration (70%) dough. The bread was pretty looking and very tasty when dotted with vine ripened tomatoes and rosemary. 
I loved how gassy, light and soft the dough was when I dimpled it with my fingers. This left a trail of big and small bubbles on the surface of the dough. A delightful sight. To me, focaccia is likened to a fluffier cousin of a pizza. 
I made the dough the day before and chilled it for 11 hours and bake it the next day.
