Recipe: Baked Spelt Doughnuts

Ever since hearing about baked doughnuts I have been wanting to try them. I make fried doughnuts probably once or twice a year, if we're lucky, so I didn't feel the need to bake them due to an over consumption of fried food. I just wanted to try it. And last weekend I did just that.

On Milking & Cheese Making

 It's so new all this milking business. We've had our ups and downs, had a few challenges we've had to overcome and (inevitably) lost a few buckets of milk along the way. Since becoming the owner of a lactating milking cow and learning to milk by hand, I have found myself on one or two occasions literally crying over spilt milk.

Recipe: Tina's Capsicum Chilli Relish

In My Kitchen ~ December 2014

I made my first ever sourdough loaf the other day. I've been making yeasted bread for years, and now I've began what will hopefully be a long sourdough baking journey. I used City Hippy Farm Girl's starter & basic sourdough recipes. My loaf was made on 100% Spelt though, and in the starter I swapped the white flour for spelt too. I was really happy with how my loaf turned out. I loved both the process of making the starter and the loaf itself, and of course the taste too!
