Savoury Party Buns

Posted on February 8, 2012 by andreamacleod

A bit funny shape but very delicious.

I was baking a cake the other day and thought I should use some of my whole wheat flour. I’ve heard many times that whale wheat flour would go rancid after a while. Since I haven’t used mine in a while I was a bit worried that it could be case. So, find a recipe that would use those. Sadly, a lot of German bread and bun recipes require various types of flour. I am not even sure if I could buy them all here. However, I stumbled upon this recipes which uses regular and whole wheat flour.

Bread January – Cheese Biscuits

Posted on January 10, 2012 by andreamacleod

I told you that I will have themed months for 2012 and I certainly hope I will be able to keep that up for all 12 months. January will be about bread and not just bread but also buns and we start off with a biscuit. (Ok, that neither falls under bread nor under rolls I believe but I think you get the meaning.)

Biscuits are certainly not too common in Germany, at least I don’t recall them from home or anything. I believe the first time I came across them was when I lived in Northern Ireland. The Islands are known for their love of biscuits, crumpets and scones. They come in various shapes and flavours and are really versatile.

This recipes is another of those that I learned at the Bistro when working at Dutch growers and I love them a lot.

White Buns

Goes well with Nutella.

This is another recipe from my time in the Bistro. Those buns were made to go with Chili con Carne and honestly, they do very well. However, if you need some buns for any occasion, these are the go to ones. They are fairly simple to make I find if you are ok with yeast dough. I know my mother doesn’t like that type of dough and I believe neither does my grandmothers. There is always the chance of killing the yeast, which can happen quickly. I am not saying that I am an expert with this, I had some accidents myself already. Practice is the key word, as always.
