Drool list

With a new interest with WildYeast’s Starter (currenty on 4th Day, finger’s crossed it will bulk up soon) I have been pretty busy browsing and reading. Along the way I've been chalking up furiously my ‘To try/bake’ list. All the baked goods I’ve seen so far look very tempting and certainly very inspiring. *wipes saliva* So it comes to no surprise that not all of them (on the list) require a fresh starter.

Here’s what has taken my fancy so far….*rubs hands in excitement*
  • Macha red bean buns
  • Nutella rolls*
  • Ham & cheese rolls*
  • Baked doughnuts*
  • Grissini (another attempt – my first attempt ended it being similar to soft bread, least to say I was quite disappointed with results.)*
  • Blueberry cream cheese bread*
  • Raisin and cinnamon snails/swirls
  • Ciabatta
  • Bagles
  • Pretzels (another attempt - quest for the crusty exterior)
  • Breakfast Muffins
  • Onion braid

Looks like I’ll be piling on the pounds again huh? Shall we put my will-power to the test? Though I’d probably imagine the fresh bread smell would probably tantalize my senses and drive me to heaven. Ha ha

Over the next 5 days, I plan to heat up the kitchen quite a bit whilst patiently waiting for the Starter to ripen and mature. I’ll still be on my program, no worries (so she declares boldly). Stay tune to find out if I manage to resist the wild temptations of yeast.
