Hi Donna,
Thanks my Friend. Another great Recipe which sounds absolutely delicious. I love making Stews, since I can eat right along with the rest of the family, I just have to leave all of the Stew Meat for them. Like Myrna, I've never used Tapioca before, but it sure does sound better than the Corn Starch that I usually use as a thickener.
This will probably be Thursday night's meal. I just got another Bread Recipe that I've been wanting to try, and this sounds like the perfect opportunity. Here's the Recipe if you're interested...
Whole-Wheat Hard-Crust Bread
3 tablespoon active dry yeast 4 1/2 cup warm water 4 1/2 tablespoon sugar 1 1/2 tablespoon salt 7 tablespoon cooking oil 10 cup all-purpose flour 2 cup whole-wheat flour 1 sesame seeds
Proof the yeast in 1/2 cup warm water and 1 tsp sugar. Mix the rest of the sugar, the salt, and 6 Tbs of the oil with the rest of the warm water. Make a well in the center of the flour; put all the liquid and yeast in the well, and mix all together. Keep pulling the flour until everything is mixed. Then start kneading by hand, adding a little more flour if needed, so that the dough leaves the hands. Let sit in a greased mixing bowl for 10 mins; then remove and knead for 1-2 mins. Do this 4 more times, every 10 mins. Alternatively, let rise once until doubled in bulk and punch down.
Place in 4 oblong or round greased baking tins, or mold on a cookie sheet sprinkled with oil. Cut the top with a knife and let rise 1 1/2 hrs. Sprinkle with oil and then sesame seeds.
Bake in a 400 F oven 20 mins, or until golden. Makes 4 loaves.
You'll notice that this makes four loaves. This is an advantage. While we all like to think that our Neighbors have got our backs in case of an Emergency, I know that my Neighbors have got mine. Every so often, I'll stop by with one of those extra fresh-baked loaves of bread, with a little home-made Honey Butter and we just visit for a spell. Works wonders, plus it's really quite enjoyable.
Have A Beautiful Week,
Phil
