we'll just be having the dinner rolls this evening...

The 3 week bread block has begun. Today was Pain Au Lait (milk bread) which we twisted and contorted into various knots and shapes for dinner rolls. We also made a grape starter for future breads. It's very similar to sourdough starter which uses yeast as the active ingredient. Grape starter uses the acid from crushed grapes to get the fermentation process going. Freaky.
