Just as a fun experiment, took the NYT bread dough (I seem to be
making it every other day or so) and cut it into eight roll-sized
pieces, set 'em to rise for an hour, and baked 'em. Fun rolls, like a
cross between a bun and a sourdough english muffin. We had TVP sloppy
joes on them tonight, along with coleslaw. Yummy.

Yah, in my NYT Bread surfing I found somebody else who made rolls out
of them. She put them in 12-cup muffin tin and made a tin foil tent.
They looked like those fancy rolls you get at a high-end Italian
restaurant.

That bread recipe is a cultural phenomenon. At the very least, it
signals the end of the low-carb fad.

I just did 'em on a cookie sheet and provided some steam with plain
old-fashioned water. Came out great, but the crust wasn't as good as
it was with the covered pot.

There was a low-carb fad?

:-) I've gotten out of the habit of taking pictures of our food lately.
Just one day it seemed really silly to me. I'll pick it up again,
though, I'm sure. I go through phases.
