Measure, mix, knead, rest, chill, knead, knead, knead, rest, roll, cut and bake.... There's something so therapeutic about it... Watching dough rise... The warmth from the oven.... and the sweet smell of baked dough...
It's no wonder people have pursued this art from ages. It's addictive, and makes you feel like you've accomplished something of some importance.... I'm sure anyone who bakes anything and removes it from the oven always taken a step back to admire it. :)
What have i been upto lately? Baking. Just that. And wouldn't it be lovely to use this blog post to show off a bit? :D
Courtesy the juicy, sweet-sour, deep red cherries available everywhere now - Cherry Pie!
Khara(Spicy) Biscuits... Quintessential Iyengar Bakey stuff... Was such a joy eating them. Brought back tons of memories...
And finally, much to my mom's disbelief and sheer happiness that followed... Croissants....! :) They still need a little more 'tweaking' in terms of appearance, but i'll get there.... for now, yay! croissants! :)
Aaahhh.... Now that i've done the showing off, i'm gonna sign off, relax and dream of all the things i plan to bake in the near future.... :))
