Bialy's and Carrots 

Bialy's and Carrots

Well, the dough still wasn't right. Not enough added gluten and too much of a whole wheat flavor. Rather than try endless variations, I bought some official high gluten flour, as the recipe calls for. It should arrive in a week or so I hope. If I need more, I'll call a bagel store, since it was $3 for the flour and $7 for the shipping.

This morning, inspired by multicolored carrots, I cooked three types of carrot soup: a curried orange soup, and tomato base & red carrot soup, and a potato/milk/white carrot soup. Each with a unique flavor. Sweetie hated the curried soup. We'll see how the others fare tomorrow. They were, at least, pretty.

Right now I'm making raspberry ice cream for her, and a fresh sweet pepper and feta salad.

The kids are coming again soon, and I am thinking of making a shephard's pie for then.
