Rice with salad

I made this  Mesclun aux fines herbe salad  for lunch yesterday. 1.  Cooked White rice 2.    zesty bow tie pasta salad ( this was store bought) by the way. 3.    Some  Mesclun aux fines herbe salad 4. Sardines, onions and some green tomatoes        ( Didn't have red tomatoes so I used the green tomatoes instead) 5.   So I mixed my  salad,green tomatoes,onions together and toss your your          Sardines on top of your salad and then I sprinkle some Italian dressing onto my               Mesclun aux fines herbe salad...... Yum yum yum!!

Baking bread.....

Image
So I  can't remember the last time I've bought bread from the store  I usually bake it myself so this is how I bake my basic white bread. 1 cup water 4 tablespoons   vegetable oil  2 tablespoons  honey 3 tablespoons confectioner sugar  4 tablespoons dry milk 1/4 teaspoon salt 1and 1/2 yeast 1.  Careful measure 1cup of room temperature water not too hot and not too cold.  2.  Pour the water into the bread pan 3.   Measure 4 tablespoons vegetable oil,vegetable oil because it makes the bread softer when     it finish baking,so you basically put all the liquid ingredients in first! 4. Measure 3 cup unbleach all purpose flour  5.  You put all your dry ingredients in the pan and then make a little hole in the flour and put your yeast. 6.   Put your bread pan in your bread maker and then set it to 3 hours to knead,rise and bake.          I usually set the crust color to light. Enjoy!
