    Technique is perfect. I prepared my dough as usual, then followed your « cooking with Le Creuset » tutorial.

    Very happy with the outcome.

    @LesXL, I just have to say that your breads look absolutely incredible!!! They look like bread you would find in an artisanal bakery - congratulations to you! I envy those that are staying at your B&B. :thumbsup:

    Mrs. Muddlerminnow has been very busy during this pandemic--and my waistline is showing it too.

    Okay not a baker at all, but we had some buttermilk we needed to use, so I decided to try my hand at making biscuits...

    These were very tasty...

    Froze a bunch so all we have to do is pull them out of the freezer and bake them when we want.

    I actually made this. A “traditional Canadian meat pie” had them on a few of my visits to Canada always liked it. Found a recipe in food and wine magazine I’ll see how it is

    Never tried it, but you have just reminded me I need to prepare a self-made Quiche.

    Biscuits?

    They look like scones to me (and very nice ones!).

    ;)

    I hope you washed your scone cutter (Glencairn glass) properly after use so it would be ready for a wee dram.

    Revived a sourdough starter and produced a couple of rounds using the Tartine method last night. I had to stop regular bread baking due to poor self control with the consumption, turns out nothing’s changed.
