Quicker Baked Potato

Try this method for speeding up the potato baking process (for a better texture than those that you microwave). Pre-heat the oven to 400. Place the potato in boiling water for 10 minutes. Bake for 30 minutes. This will cut the cooking time in half.

 

Herbed Oatmeal Bread


breads, herb/spice

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 1/4 cup quick-cooking oats
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 pinch salt
1 large egg
1/4 cup honey*
1 1/2 cup buttermilk or
1 1/2 cup soured milk
1/2 teaspoon caraway seeds
1 teaspoon dried, crumbled herbs**
1 tablespoon unsalted butter; melted

*Heat the honey until it's liquefied. **Dried herbs such as tarragon, thyme and marjoram. Grease a 9 x 5" loaf pan. In large mixing bowl, combine flours, oats, baking powder and salt. In a smaller, separate bowl, whisk together egg, honey and buttermilk until well blended. Stir in caraway seeds and herbs. Pour all at once over dry ingredients; blend together with a wooden spoon or spatula until evenly combined. Pour into prepared pan; brush top with melted butter. Bake at 350 F. for 50 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool slightly in pan, then turn onto a wire rack. Bread freezes well. To vary, add 1 tb minced, sauteed onion; chopped, cooked bacon; or grated Cheddar cheese. Enright suggests serving this bread with lamb stew.
