I've been baking our regular bread which ranges from a wholemeal cobb to a seeded multigrained sourdough, but I haven't been more adventurous and trying out new recipes for a few months. It was seeing my friend on Facebook with his trial of the other recipe this month that pulled me out of the doldrums. So thank you Nigel. Together with Nigel we set up a facebook group that worked our way through all the recipes in a new sourdough recipe book. Having like minded pals can really help with encouragement etc.
For February the Bake With Jack club were given two recipes of which this is one of them. For Turkish Simit you need Grape Molasses. I couldn't believe my luck, but I had recently bought a jar of this up a Rocky Mountain without any idea of how I was going to use it. I do like buying different ingredients which I are new to me, and now I have opened the jar, I shall be exploring more uses.
As you can see, I need to work on my shaping and proving techniques, and I have an inkling of what I shall try differently.
I also bought some Pistachio Butter, which I think will go very nicely with this, perhaps topped with a little honey.
