Easter no. 2 has come late this year, bumping into Ederlezi/Djudjevdan. Adding to this are some significant Taurean birthdays during the early days of May. SPring Equinox was 1st May.
The day’s rainy afternoon was spent dyeing eggs, drinking good coffee, listening to nice music.
There are chores, but I might leave them for tomorrow.
Soon it will be time for tap tap…
Homemade Rye Bread
It’s a mean April this year. Ill winds blow, bringing sleet and some snow.
This morning I decided to activate some yeast, then sifted spelt, rye, strong white into a bowl, adding caraway seeds and salt. All organic.
The result:
Served with spicy chickpea and spinach soup. If this wintry weather continues tomorrow, then fermented cabbage will go nicely with this loaf.
I prefer dry curries to saucy ones. A bhuna suits me fine. If it’s veggie, then even better. Homemade, served with lf yoghurt, mango chutney and garlic and coriander naan.
Cauliflower, chickpeas, red pepper, cherry tomatoes, plus all necessary ingredients. Plenty of fresh coriander too.
