Onion and Cottage Cheese Scones #BornOnTheFarm

February 23, 2016 By Food Retro

This cold that’s been going around is so yucky, the winter has been so dreary, and I’ve felt like such a shut-in, I admit I haven’t taken as much joy as I usually do in things like baking and cooking. Or anything. The result is that we’ve been eating less healthy, and that has just…

Stuffing Bread

October 3, 2014 By Food Retro

What is the biggest problem with a holiday that turkey’s served? You have pounds of turkey leftover, and no stuffing. My friends, you can have your sandwich and eat it too: stuffing bread. Stuffing. Bread. Yes, I went there! it’s a slice-able loaf of bread that tastes just like it came out from inside of…

Adventure Bread

August 25, 2014 By Food Retro

You guys know how much I like my books. Raincoast Books was a dear and sent me Josey Baker Bread. It’s not only a fabulous recipe book with a cute guy in it, it’s a story about a guy who never ever thought he’d end up in the place he was as a full time baker;…

Simple (and Cheap!) Flour Tortillas

May 26, 2014 By Food Retro

When I wrote about chemicals in our food that are worse than the yoga mat ingredient (azodicarbonamide) in Subway’s bread, a lot of people mentioned how disheartening it was to try to eat well cause organic is just so darn expensive. It is true that there’s a premium on organic foods. What a lot of people don’t…

Making and Using a 1:1 Sourdough Starter

May 5, 2014 By Food Retro

I’ve had sourdough on the brain for a while now, but while vacation plans were in progress, I refrained from starting up. I envisioned leaving a culture in someone’s hands while you’re on vacation to be akin to asking your cubicle neighbour to water your plant while you’re away. There’s a fair quantity of information…

Apple Bread

November 27, 2013 By Food Retro

I didn’t want to put two apple recipes so closely together, but it can’t be helped! Sometimes a recipe needs a little extra love. It’s been crazy here on the home-front, what with Christmas coming, articles to write, and an increasing push into trying to make connections within my community. On top of everything, we’ve…

Dill Pickle Bread

October 22, 2013 By Food Retro

I was at a birthday party.  I talking “hippie food” (as my husband likes to call it) with his cousin, who lives near a very foodie part of London, Ontario. She was telling me about this bakery she liked to go to, and that’s when she filled my ears with these glorious words for the very…

Gluten Free Apple Brown Betty Muffins

October 6, 2013 By Food Retro

It was National Brown Betty day on October 5, and I’m a day late in getting up my celebration for it as usual! I had actually prepared it twice just last week, but utter exhaustion, smartphones and WordPress just don’t seem to get along. The “brown Betty” had its name bestowed in dubious quotation marks back in…

Roasted Banana Oat Muffins

September 9, 2013 By Food Retro

Why roast bananas?  BECA– — USE it is easy, and awesome for making explode-in-your-mouth caramelized banana goodness.  And that’s about all I have to say about that.  If you’re quick about prepping while you’re roasting, you will only have a couple of minutes between popping the bananas out of the oven and popping the muffins…

Hotdog & Hamburger Buns (White)

August 10, 2013 By Food Retro

Of all the bread products I’ve replaced in my household with homemade, oddly enough, the hotdog and hamburger buns were the most difficult.  I must have tried three different recipes for buns this summer, and I didn’t like any one of them… they were crusty, tough, and strange tasting.  I was looking for something that…
