It was good to be back in St George, if only for about one week. We had a great time with our adventure to British Columbia Canada and visiting with two of our children.
Finally, Mr Nut found (in Canada) the perfect sized cast iron Dutch ovens. They are 3.3L or 3.48
quarts. The most important measurement was the inside bottom diameter, which was 6.75 inches. The inside top diameter was 8 inches and the depth was 4.5 inches.
Just look at these beauties. The front pans are for eight inch layer cakes and they work just fine for Mr Nuts new approach to bread making using parchment paper.
Mr Nut went back to the 33% Whole Wheat Rustic Artisan Bread recipe first blogged on May 17, 2011 and again revised it for the above Dutch ovens.
As you can see the loaf is smaller than the loaves made in Mr Nuts larger Dutch ovens. The yield from the smaller Dutch ovens was about one and one half pound loaves.
This was the top view.
The bottom looked good also.
The crumb was very good, but cutter of the loaf needs practice.
Look closely at this picture, you can see the Hummingbird that has taken up residence on our exterior temperature gauge.
Our friends harvested our garden about one hour before we returned home, thus there were no ripe tomatoes waiting for us. but they did miss this;
coming soon; a revision of Mr Nut's yeast Zucchini bread recipe.
À bientôt,
Mr Nut
