So I was talking to
gwynyth earlier about bread. And I asked her if she wanted the naan recipe I use, and dug it out and gave it to her. And then I said, "Hmm. I haven't made this in ages. I think I'll make naan if I have the stuff for it."
My yeast had a best used by date in late August, 2001. Yes, it has been ages since I made bread, hasn't it? But it proofed up all right, and I have bread dough rising in all its garlicky goodness in the kitchen.
I love kneading dough. The feel of it is so tremendously soothing and comforting. Almost as smooth as wedging porcelain, which I haven't done in ages. Someday . . .
( Sacreligious baking-related MUSH conversation. )
I have weird friends. And I will soon have naan, too.
Addendum: O bliss. I have naan. And for the first time when I made it it puffed up like proper naan. O bliss. So good.
