I have been making this salad for years and it's my go to salad to bring to cookouts. Everyone loves it and if by chance there is any leftover, it's good the next day. There are a lot of different recipes out there for this salad and I've settled on this one because it's not overdressed and is a perfect balance of crunchy, sweet and salty. Ingredients: 2-3 broccoli crowns (about 6 cups), cut into small florets 10 bacon slices, crisp-cooked and crumbled 1/4 cup red onion, finely diced 1/4 cup sunflower seeds 1/3 cup dried cranberries 1/2 cup mayonnaise 2 Tablespoons apple cider vinegar 3 teaspoons sugar salt and pepper to taste Directions: 1. Combine broccoli, bacon, onion, sunflower seeds and cranberries in a large bowl. 2. In a small bowl whisk mayo, vinegar sugar, salt and pepper. Pour dressing over salad and toss to coat. 3. Cover and refrigerate (at least an hour) until ready to serve.
One of the things that has made me think it's time to let this blog go is that I keep re-visiting old recipes. I have started to do the thing that has always panicked me in conversation with others and also in my professional writing life: I have started to repeat myself. Good writers have a decent routine and get it out over and over again. They get out the same phrases, the same stories, the same hang-ups all the time and hope that no-one notices. Great writers, really brilliant ones, never repeat themselves. They're that fucking crazy that they have enough new things churning around in their melons to always have something new to say. I fall somewhere between the two in that I occasionally repeat myself, but try not to. The overwhelming urge to repeat yourself comes from either having to hit a deadline and having not enough to say or from the frustration that you said this once before and it really felt like NO-ONE WAS LISTENING!! So maybe the thing to do is say it again!? ...
Kneeding bread is a good exercise. No kneed bread is fine but a little kneeding makes better bread. IMPORTANT INFO: Using antibacterial spray on your work surfaces prior to kneeding bread will kill the yeast. It makes no difference if it's bakers yeast or sourdough. Those of you who have been following this blog over the years will know that I have been dabbling with sourdough for quite some time. I've had lots of failures as using sourdough is not as straightforward as using yeast. Now we need a drum roll as I believe that I have it sussed. The result is a light soft bread with a crunchy crust that is all too good to eat. I just wish that I could share it with you all. I actually cooked this bread in a cast iron pan as this helps to steam the outside of the loaf and create this crust. Now, it takes time to make sourdough bread but it doesn't take much effort. A little weighing and mixing and leaving is all you have to know. It's the way that you do theses things that ...
