I <3 Cookie for breathing new life into my thread. I guess when I started it all the cool people were still in bed.

since you're determined to subject us all to tantalizing images of evil carb-laden demon food, it's my turn.

this is my current favorite sort of bread:



I'll give a big wet bonus kiss to anybody who knows the proper name for it :)

I'll venture to guess either paratha or roti?

You would be very close, but very far away. However, because I'm so nice, we'll make out anyway.


It's injera...Ethiopian flatbread.

believe it or not, that was my second guess. I recall Marcus Samuelsson (of Aquavit fame) was demonstrating this on TV several years ago...

I wish it were paid more attention to on cooking shows...it's a DELICIOUS bread, and it's got a *very* nifty texture.

Since you brought it up...

it's got a slightly sour taste to it that is also interesting, in a good way....

scallion pancakes?

[JailyardGuy]

that's what I love about it. It's like sourdough for lazy-asses. :) Teff (which is the grain that injera is made of) has a wonderful ability to attract the "wild" yeast spores that are always milling about in the air, and the longer you leave the batter to ferment, the more tang you'll get in your bread.

It's really fun to play with, too. :)

All these SEXY bread pictures seemingly over a caption that says: "They're just so GOOD when they touch your lips!!!! - Mr. Matthew Rask"

Bread is the staple brought to us by the Earl of Sandwich:

the beauty of the croque monsieur



the staple behind a cubano:



the base of a banh mi:

yer makin' me hard, Cookie.

[kissmycookie]

Posted: 3/4/05 at 2:53pm

of course, hard bread can always be used to make breadcrumbs...



which yield delish fried chicken:



or kept whole and be used as French toast...

I will seek retribution for this act of unusual cruelty, you diet-wrecking fiend!

What are you doing this weekend? I feel like making dinner
