Coconut milk bread

This is the finished coconut milk sourdough bread.  It was one of my all-time favorites.  The crust was great; the bread was rich and tasty.  The golden smears are bits of saffron.  I will make some version of this bread again.

Coconut milk sponge

Hmm.  I was feeling experimental yesterday, so I used coconut milk as the liquid in the sponge.  It smelled pretty good.  When I uncovered it this morning to add flour, salt and do the first rising, it smelled . . . different.  Sort of a little bit like hard boiled eggs.

I don't know how it will turn out.  There will be a follow-up post.

Sourdough with some oats

Regular old sourdough.  I threw in a handful of steel cut oats.  YUMMY!
