And bonus - they are pretty large - I think I could get twelve decent sized rolls from the same recipe.
As for the other ones, I cut off a wee slice and they're OK, despite my misgivings. A fairly closed crumb but they will be fine for packed lunches on my coach trips, they really will. They're big so perfect for triple decker rolls! So no grumbles.
I went shopping again yesterday - two days in a row is not good. However, I got a reminder from Morrisons that if I spent another £30 before the end of August, I would get 3,000 smart points (which equals £3 as part of a voucher) so I dug out my new month shopping list which has things like washing up liquid, loo rolls, that sort of thing, stuff that I needed and was going to buy soon anyway.
So perhaps it was not 'not good' after all.
I got my washing done and line dried before the rain started so that was good.
Today, Beth and Alex are over for Sunday using-up-stuff-in-the-freezer lunch. Beth's having bean and veg crumble with a topping from the freezer while Alex and I will make inroads into pots of left-over roast lamb. Plus the usual sides, of course. It should be nice.
It's all ready and prepped, as I like to do first thing in the morning. It means I can spend more time with B and A when they arrive instead of disappearing into the kitchen and just lightens the load considerably.
Apart from that, I will probably do the ironing later on and that will be that. A pleasant, slow sort of day. Fine by me.
See you tomorrow, everyone. xx
So glad the baps worked, can't really take the credit, all I did was google and thought this particular recipe sounded the most likely. Firstly I was put off by all the white flour recipes and why they should have it in wholemeal too, but there was an explanation on this partidular blog/recipe about the wholewheat absorbing more water due to the texture of it, I think.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your family lunch! xx
Yes, it does, but to balance that, if you mix the flours with wholemeal spelt and dark rye, they absorb less so it kind of balances out. xx
DeleteThe rolls/buns look great. Enjoy the rest of your Sunday

Thanks. Beth has just taken them. :-) xx
DeleteIt was suppose to have rained here today but it was little more than a shower. More rain is forecast this week but we shall see. Those burger buns look fantastic and a big thank you to both you and Annabeth for sharing the recipe.
ReplyDeleteI like those 'use it up' recipe days, always fun to see how things turn out.
Have a good day tomorrow as we start a new month.
We shall indeed. Some rain would be a Very Good Thing, especially if it could be overnight
DeleteSorry - sent too soon. The buns do look promising and I shall be making some for myself as soon as I have freezer space. I think ,maybe I should have flattened them down a bit but they were too close to each other for that. Lesson learned! xx
DeleteYour buns look very nice.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
