What’d You Do Last Weekend?

I'm sure you still have mint in your garden, so why not try to make your own mint chocolate chip ice cream? Cacao nibs stand-in for chocolate chips in this grown-up version.

Sourdough English Muffins

Sourdough English Muffins

English muffins have always been a mysterious bread aisle product to me. I don't know if it was the baked top and bottom (but not the sides), the crumb that doesn't have the texture of anything else (it always seemed raw-ish to me), or the tangy baking soda flavor, but I always wondered what they were. I didn't grow up with the ubiquitous breakfast sandwich from the drive-thru, and I guess Mom didn't like them because she never bought them for us. So when I was looking for a little baking test, I decided to give English muffins a try.

It was over 90 degrees in Seattle that week, a fine time for my rhubarb mother to be ready. I figured, what's 90 compared to 100? I might as well get some bread in the oven before it gets any worse. It was a good call. Later that week Seattle hit 102, and without air conditioning, let me tell you - I didn't dare go near the kitchen.
