2. Creating a Wild-Yeast Starter (Mother)
Now that you've gathered up the equipment you need and started a COUNTER MOTHER (pages 28-29), how's she doing? And her name? One of mine is named after my great granny, Hilda Matilda. |

7. English Muffins
Who doesn't think English Muffins make a breakfast? Maybe it's their slightly chewy texture that's soft at the same time it's also delicate and classy? Maybe it's the butter welled up in the eyes of an English Muffin? Maybe it's the jam? Ah, yes, strawberry. Raspberry? Maybe honey. Or cinnamon and sugar. Are English Muffins top of your list now for what you want to bake next? |

1. Pancakes & Waffles
What are your favorite additions or toppings for Pancakes and Waffles? I like adding a dollop of cottage cheese to batches of pancakes. And my favorite flour for making waffles is quinoa. |
