This and that

Note to self: If you've only added 1/3 of the required liquid, it is no wonder if the dough seems dry.
Second note to self: Before baking bread, check that you have enough flour.

Delivery from China arrived today. I do not have the courage to look at it just yet. Judging from past experiences this kind of thing needs mental preparation.

I am itching to start over again rewriting TDH, but I must finish this draft first. MUST!

Also, should I join the Epilogue dragon competition? I have no time, but I have a cool idea for a dragon.

You should enter the Epilogue dragon competition.

I did that (checked for ingredients) before starting the bread-making, Tuesday evening, and found that I needed both white and whole-grain brown rice flour, as well as xanthan gum AND yeast. I've got to start making notes to myself as I run out of ingredients. The shopping expedition did allow me, though, to pick up some grated cheddar cheese, and I put half a cup into the bread dough. Certainly did nice things for both taste and texture!

I've never cooked with rice flour and have no idea what xanthan gum is, but it sounds yummy. Good idea with the cheese, I'll try it out next time. :)

I'm allergic to wheat, and xanthan gum is a gluten substitute.

Ah...I was wondering if it was something like that.
