Baking & Pastry Project - Week 2

I was a very lucky woman and received a copy of the Culinary Institute of America's Baking & Pastry book along with their culinary dvd's from my family for my birthday and our anniversary. After watching all the DVDs, I decided to work my way through the CIA's Baking and Pastry book - of course making it gluten free. There were so many skills that I wanted to develop and work on. I hope you will be interested in sharing my journey with me.

This week I'm making a Whole Grain Bread and what sounds like a mouth watering Rosemary Bread using a blend of high protein flours.

Due to the Easter holiday weekend, I'm a little off my original schedule (Sun/Tues/Thur). This week, my bread postings will be on Wednesday and Friday. Next week I'll be back to the original schedule.

You can follow my adventure daily on Twitter, where I'm glutenagogo.
