Quiche.

1st try. And am thinking of something to accompany it. ?

It was the best quiche of my life. Solid win.

I picked up a copy of this book that I’ve been eyeing for a while. This loaf is my regular recipe, but modified slightly based on what I’ve learned so far. Oh, and that little wonky bit at the bottom right is where my three-year old son pinched a bit off while he was helping me put the flour on just before baking.

Every recipe is so freaking good. I'm going to make one of the biga loaves this weekend.

Was that the overnight loaf? did you halve the recipe? You can cook the bread for even longer if you like.

No, this is the same recipe I’ve been using, but I let it rise longer and stretched the dough a bit an hour into rising. I also baked it four minutes longer than recipe calls for. I’ll experiment further with the next one.

And a nice, crisp white wine to balance things out with that quiche.

Got it ok. Yeah Forkish--as I'm sure you've read--is like push your bread further than you think...it took a leap of faith the first time I did it. Totally worth it.

After all the discussion about miso black cod, we had miso black cod. And it continues to rule.

Fish looks good. Your rice looks like balls.

And his balls look like rice?

Could you detail this more? I will try it next time.

With each dish i discover, or rediscover. the nostalgia kicks in so much, It's like switching on the TV, and an episode of Seinfeld is on.
My food options were limited for so long.

I thank you guys for any advice or tips about refining foods or trying new foods.
Hopefully @Piobaire can pm me that focaccia recipe. and @Fueco can help me with some breads.

This cooking adventure is helping to find my happiness again.
What to cook next? who knows? nice.
