Sourdough # 5 - been able to get a whole meal & rye loaf to rise as well as the unbleached white bread. What's more, it's delicious. #dishbyduy

Homemade sourdough take 2, the starter is working a bit better. Still would like more lift. Will give it another week. #dishbyduy

French champagnes are hit and miss for me. I would say Bollinger is on top of the list, Moët Chandon, then the rest tend to be too astringent for me, especially Veuve Cliquot. Dom Perignon is nice but I don't want to take out a second mortgage. This Tassie Sparkling is made the traditional way. I would say It's on par with the Ol' Bolly. And $20 cheaper. I like a bit of brioche, toast and honey and that balanced acidity, with a little lingering sweetness. We're having it with home made roast chicken tonight. #wine #review #dishbyduy @andrewfwkelly

This is my first attempt at baking real sour dough. I've been investigating microbiome benefits, and apparently wheat is not digestible to humans unless it undergoes a fermentation process. This bread had undergone a 12 hour proofing period whereby the carbohydrates and gluten is broken down by the natural yeast that comes from fermenting a small amount of flour & water (the starter) for 5 days. Bread should only be flour, water and salt... Ie: no yeast, other than the naturally occurring kind. So satisfying to watch this living thing evolve over the last five days. #dishbyduy Eating unfermented wheat products is the number one reason there's a wheat intolerance epidemic.

I wonder how many of my friends would eat this? Veal liver with shallot vinaigrette #dishbyduy

Leftover pasta sauce, some canned beans, a pinch of cumin, a dash of Tabasco, a couple of slices of bacon and an egg baked for 12 mins at 200c is this morning breakfast #dishbyduy
