Ancient Bread

Sourdough bread based on a recipe devised from Panis Quadratus, the carbonized loaves excavated from an oven in Pompeii, Italy. Includes fennel seeds which give it a distinctive flavour – 😋

This loaf is not exactly as the instructions, as we didn’t have any suitable string which was used to create individual sections which could be broken off.

My daughter’s baking of course.

Anyone for Pork?

I believe this orange blob, washed up on the beach, is a Sea Pork.

A type of sea squirt but more like a colony of lots of individual sea squirts. Which you can see if you zoom right in.

Tiramisu Cake Number 3

Tea and cake, perfection
Icing on top is a series of chocolate covered swirls
Soft, light sponge soaked in coffee liqueur between layers of mascarpone coffee icing.

I may have given my daughter a few hints that I wanted her to make another of these mouthwatering creations.

Looks good, tastes fantastic.

Don’t think it will keep well ….

Beerfest

What more could I want, my favourite English beers brewed and on tap here in Australia.

Huge thanks to Harvey’s Brewery of Lewes, Sussex, UK for allowing their beers to be brewed here and providing some of the ingredients.

And huge thanks to Ross and the team at Bacchus Brewing Co, Capalaba, Queensland, Australia.

And I just might have a few takeaways at home to keep me going till next St George’s day and hopefully another Harvey’s Weekend at Bacchus Brewing Co.

Cheers!

One a Penny, Two a Penny

My first attempt at making these. Maybe not as neat as shop bought but fresh from the oven they smell so good.

One a penny, two a penny, hot cross buns….

The old nursery rhyme.
