Re: What have you cooked recently
I baked a loaf of rye bread this past week, been wanting some recently and the stuff on the supermarket shelves is pretty worthless in my opinion. I grew up on Long Island, my folks worked in the city and dad would buy these big loaves of rye from the Jewish bakeries that were really good.
So I found a recipe on the King Arthur Flour website and ordered some of the ingredients from them. This recipe wasn't a sourdough and uses regular yeast but it is a slow rise and not kneaded much. You bake it in a Dutch oven to develop a good crust.
It was really good and I guess I blew any kind of lower carb diet I started this month.
I took some pictures. This one was taken with my Canon R mirrorless camera and a new lens I got from my wife for Christmas, a Lensbaby 56mm Velvet. Gives a sort of dreamy look.

That looks amazing. I'm also reducing carbs but I'll take a corned beef and Swiss please.

Re: What have you cooked recently
Tonight, Scottish shortbread * 2 (first one pictured, doesn't look like that any more, always bake two because first somehow seems to mysteriously evaporate) and a blueberry upside-down pudding kind of a thing/experiment. pictured fresh out of the oven, was not particularly co-operative in later inversion attempts so maybe renamed blueberry fruit-on-the-bottom pudding. I was using up blueberries a certain dear relative requested because they really really wanted to make blueberry muffins ...then they didn't :/ Basically blueberries and brown sugar in the bottom of the dish then covered with sponge cake mixture/pound cake batter (I'm bilingual, you know ;) )
