Any Home Bakers Here?

[Bonkerelli]

Morning everyone. Guess I need to stay on top of this thread daily, I fall behind, lol. Yesterday was my family friend's wedding and instead of a cake they did doughnuts.. genius!

Want to do some sort of baking today.. though it'll be hot outside.

Morning Home Bakers. Dry day tilling for the foundation of the coop.

Wanted to bake so much the last few days but the temps were over 100°. So we had pool time instead. Also iced coffee!

Chinese fried rice

2/3 c baby carrots
1/2 c peas
2 tbsp sesame oil
2 tbsp of vegetable oil
1 clove garlic
2 to 3 large eggs
2 to 3 cups cooked rice
1 tbsp Soy sauce

Place carrots in a small saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a low boil and cook for 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in peas, then immediately drain in a colander.

Heat a wok over high heat. Pour in vegetable oil, then stir in carrots, peas, and garlic; cook for about 30 seconds. Add eggs; stir quickly to scramble eggs with vegetables.

Stir in cooked rice. Add soy sauce and toss rice to coat. Drizzle with sesame oil and toss again.

I agree. How did you come across it?

I was putting coins in a coinstar machine when I found it.

Folks solar cook on Mt Everest so I think you could if you get enough sun.

I gotta look into this. Some days I think we would do fine, but we have a lot of cloudy days too.

Wait, SOLAR cooking? Never heard of it. I’ll have to do research.

The cloudy days it wouldn’t work, but those are VERY rare in my neck of the woods.

Hey, there! Was wondering what people may be planning for dessert for Father's Day. Just one week away! The main meal, I'll figure out later, but my focus is on the best part--- dessert!

I'm thinking of banana-cream pie (a favorite of my DH) and either peanut butter pie or key-lime pie (a fav of my Dad).

Excellent! I don't know if solar cooking would work here in Michigan. I would certainly try it if it does.

Should work as long as you don't mind being flexible on what you eat on any given day. Things that take a lot of heat, sunny days. Things that cook at lower temps, partly sunny days. All other meals you eat cold

I was putting coins in a coinstar machine when I found it.

So you have NO idea where you picked it up. Fascinating find.
