Today's achievements.. Perfecting Dough

I was on nursing duties today as the husband and Mighty Toddler were sick. I didn't get a chance to do a quick grocery run so I needed to make some essentials. I have made heaps of bread before in the Thermie but I thought I would try The Road to Loving my Thermo Mixer website's Soft Bread.  I made the large loaf recipe and made 3 bread rolls and a loaf of bread. This is hands down the best bread I have made. Super light and fluffy and even the sick husband (who did have his doubts) was impressed.  http://www.trtlmt.com.au/soft-bread-in-the-thermomix-is-possible/



 










Next challenge was to make some wraps. The boys have been taking these to school every day so I needed to find a recipe that I could quickly make while everything else was going on tonight.  I have wanted to make wraps for ages and I am really happy with my efforts.  The recipe is from the Recipe Community and I only made half a batch but still made 10 wraps.  They freeze really well according to the comments so that should get us through to the end of the week. Yay!

Last of all..Dinner.  Pizza and pork dumplings (full of veges too) were on the menu as chosen by the boys so I made pizza dough from the Everyday Cook Book. As a Thermomix consultant, we make pizza dough often and because I had the oven going and the Varoma steaming the dumplings, the dough proved beautifully. This recipe make enough for 2 large pizza bases so I have a spare in the freezer if anyone wants to try it!

Hope you are staying well. Happy Monday night!
