    I found it.......! Looks yummy!


    JJ's Herby Cheese Bread:D

    Mix ingredients together in this order below with a fork until it forms into a ball, then finish with clean hands:


    8oz SR flour

    1.5oz fat (any will do: butter/marg/suet/spread/reserved fat from cooking joints, etc)

    4oz grated cheese

    Handful of herbs (I prefer chives:))

    1 egg

    Up to 1/4 pint of milk (add gradually as if making scones. You may not need the whole amount;))

    1 tsp mustard.


    If too wet add more flour, if too dry add more milk.

    Method for bread to accompany a soup:


    Pat/roll it into a circle on a tray.

    Cut it into 6 wedges and slightly part them.

    Glaze with egg or milk.

    Looks like this as they go in the oven:
    photo-64.jpg?t=1335546246
    15 mins or until golden around 200 degrees
    Then it should look like this (mmmmm, smell that!):
    photo-65.jpg?t=1335546854
    Verdict: Nom!
    photo-66.jpg?t=1335548045

    Method for dumplings:

    Roll into 6 (or more if you want smaller ones) balls and add to a simmering stew.

    Pop back into oven with the lid off and allow to cook in the liquid.
    Cooking time depends on the temperature I'd oven and size of the dumplings. I usually leave em in a good 20 mins. :)

    :A Every moment is a gift. That's why we call it the present.!:A

    Just my daily bread, a loaf of tea bread, half a dozen scones and a small tray of dog biscuits. Using up all the odds of flour, baking powder etc., before I buy new.

    Yesterday I baked 8 mahoosive puff pastry apple danishes, using a Batman cookie cutter to cut out steam holes in the front.
