03-27 Jessie's Multi Grain Bread

Feel free to halve this recipe it makes a lot.
You need 9-10 C Grains, but you use half at a time.
The grains can be in any combination or without one of them.
This is the bread we ate with the amazing soup.

Mix together grains:
(5 whole wheat flour, 1 c oats & ¾ c flax seeds processed in blender, 3 c white flour)
Put half of the grains (5 c) in large mixing bowl with:
2-3 T yeast
½ c nonfat dry milk
Combine and add and mix 1-2 minutes:
3 c warm water
2/3 c canola oil
½ cup agave nectar or honey
Let rest 10 minutes for yeast to sponge. Then add:
4 large eggs
4 t salt
Add remaining
5 c flour, a little at a time
until dough starts to pull away from sides of bowl.
Knead with countertop mixer or by hand for 5-6 minutes until dough is very soft.
It will still be sticky but stiff enough to shape into a loaf.
Bake or cover tightly and store in refrigerator up to two days.

Lightly oil hands and shape into rolls or loaves.
Let rise until very light (almost doubled in size).
Bake on pizza stone or silpat for best results.
Bake: 350˚ 18-25 minutes according to the size of your loaf

Sprinkle grains on top of loaf.
Or slit diagonal for oo la la.
If you want a crunchy outer layer, spray with water every 5 minutes or so during baking.

Nordic curry

This is a mild anytime curry.  Takes 10-15 minutes. The original (dairy) sauce is from Magnus Nilsson. I double the sauce so there's plenty. Especially because I like to add vegetables and proteins. I always add the apples, sometimes skip the onion. Leftover roasted root vegetables tasted great. Regular supermarket yellow curry powder is perfect. Serve it over rice or with naan. Be generous with the salt and pepper.  Melt 4 T butter over medium heat in a sauté pan (wide, shallow).  Sprinkle in 4 T yellow curry powder and stir to combine.  Add 1-2 tart apple (Granny Smith), cored and chopped or cubed & 1 onion, finely chopped. When apples and onion are softened, sprinkle them with 2 T flour . Stir to evenly coat all.  Add 1 1/2 c heavy cream OR coconut cream , slowly, a bit at a time, whisking constantly to keep lumps at bay. When smooth, add in 1 1/2 c milk OR coconut milk in the same manner. Allow to begin to bubble and thicken before serving. Season gen...

After looking at a few different recipes, I came up with this version to pack more flavors into the tart shell, which turned out tasting great, thankfully :) Take your time. Watch different videos about technique if you are needing more tips. It is not a quick process. The components can be made the day ahead which is helpful if you have the warning.   You can also use this recipe to make about 8 mini tarts   Paté Sucre Sweet tart dough for shell This makes enough dough for a large 11” tart - use less for smaller pans,   it can be stored in freezer for a couple months. If you don’t have a tart pan, I used a springform so I could still have the shell exposed Some recipes suggested a pie dish. Crumble together with fingers, pastry blender or paddle on mixer - briefly  - work quickly- do not melt the butter with fingers or friction...
