I forgot the salt…
I made some bread on Thursday night, and I forgot the salt. Yep… I did. The bread was bland, but still edible. I won’t forget it next time I make it. I promise. At least I didn’t forget the salt in the challah bread. That wouldn’t have been very good. Ah well… you live and learn through experiences – its the best way. I won’t be forgetting the salt again. :)
Anybody else forget something while cooking or baking something this week? I’d love to hear. Simply drop me a comment. :) And don’t forget to enter my giveaway for organic palm shortening from Tropical Traditions – this stuff is awesome!

P.S. Sorry, I couldn’t get a photo of the bread before it was cut. I’ll be posting the recipe sometime soon, along with photos. Remember – don’t forget the salt!


I didn’t forget anything this week while baking, but I have had my times before!! :) The earlist one I remember doing is when I made muffins and forgot the baking powder. UGG! Sometimes I would make cornbread and forget the butter (because it was still sitting in the microwave all nice and softened waiting for me to remember it!)
Awhile ago I made bean soup and it called for 6 peppercorns. I had NO idea what peppercorns were and so I called Mommy and asked. She said to just put in about 3/4 t. of pepper in to replace the peppercorns. Welllll….cellphone connection must have not been that great because I took it as 3/4 t. for EACH peppercorn!!!! WOOOOOOO it was really spicy!!!!
And, once in awhile….I still forget something :D

It was delicious! A little soft, but delicious with the soup last night!
Thanks dear, for all your cooking and baking.

Yeah… I’m always forgetting something..The latest thing I forgot was vanilla in a banana bread recipe.. Luckily it turned out ok in the end. =) I’m making some banana cupcakes this afternoon…Hehe, let’s hope I don’t leave anything out this time! =)

The last time I accidentally left out the salt, I realized it after I had already kneaded my dough. I tried to add it then. ha! What a bad idea that was!
I would’ve been better off to just bake it without the salt – good to know it would have still ben edible. : )
Bread-baking is quite the adventure sometimes, isn’t it?

oh! I have done that, this week I was making a new recipe for a spicey orange chicken and I forgot the cornstarch, so of course the sauce wasn’t thick enough, so I had to run to my grandma’s house to borrow some of her cornstarch, being that we were out. :)
I would love to see your bread recipe though :)
Have a nice day,
Sincerely,
Brielle

Isn’t it weird how one little ingredient, however small it may be, can change the entire taste of the finished product??
I actually can’t remember a time I’ve forgotten an ingredient… Though, I’m sure it’s bound to happen sooner or later! :D

I didn’t forget something but I put in way too much milk and flour in my sourdough mother. I also put in a cup too much in my Hill Climbers bread and that didn’t turn out too well. :)
Prayers,
Esther

And I definitely remember Susannah’s “peppercorn soup” :D That WAS spicy!
Love and hugs!

You can read one of my latest posts about how I forgot to pit some dates before putting them through my food processor–and still not realizing it while my food processor was NOT happy and making horrible sounds!

Glad your bread was still edible!
