Cocktail Rye Bread (with Bread Machine Dough-Making Option) by Salad Foodie

For the freshest taste and earthy rye flavor, make your own cocktail rye bread to pair with appetizers at your next party. Redstaryeast.com gave me the inspiration, but I took liberties with their cocktail rye bread recipe by using my bread machine dough-making feature to save kneading energy and time. Baked in mini loaf pans, the…

Ciabatta Bread I

Ciabatta Bread I by Salad Foodie

The first of two ciabatta bread recipes I am trying out - this first one is from Fleischmann's Yeast. It is rated "Advanced" in difficulty and I agree! It was challenging and involved - plan to be around much of the time of day you make it, as there are four 45 minute risings to supervise. The dough is tricky and sticky. I did like…

Whole Grain Pita Bread

Whole Grain Pita Bread by Salad Foodie

Out of pita bread one day and too lazy to go shop, I decided to haul out the bread machine and make pita bread dough. The recipe is whole grain, but not 100%. Still it's a notch up nutritionally from regular white pita bread. Makes 1 1/2 pounds, or ten pita breads. One serving is half of a pocket bread so theoretically the recipe…

Mashed Potatoes and Cabbage (Colcannon)

Mashed Potatoes and Cabbage (Colcannon) by Salad Foodie

A perfect way to boost nutrition in mashed potatoes, this is a favorite Irish side dish but can certainly appear at Oktoberfest in late September with bratwurst or sauerbraten. I like the subtle crunch and texture cabbage provides, and using red potatoes and leaving the skins on, adds extra color and nutrition. (An optional version…

Chocolate Sauce for Roman Oxtail

Chocolate Sauce for Roman Oxtail by Carmelita

A tomato sauce base is enriched with poached celery and finished with dark chocolate, raisins and pine nuts and a hint of nutmeg. This silky sauce is a subtly bitter sweet finish for Roman Oxtail Stew, its crowning glory. Though I have never tried it, I imagine it could also work well with game dishes.

Irish Fruit Bread (Barm Brack)

Irish Fruit Bread (Barm Brack) by Salad Foodie

Barm Brack is an Irish fruit bread eaten on St. Brigid’s Feast Day, February 1. Golden raisins predominate, along with citron or other dried fruit. It has a hint of spice and makes an excellent breakfast bread. The bread machine makes light work of making this bread, but due to the higher sugar content it is best made on the dough…
