Looks great to me! I wish we could get English Muffins here. I'd make myself an egg mcmuffin!

you could make them

1584741939137.png
  • 4 1/2 cups unbleached bread flour plus more for kneading
  • 3 Tablespoons sugar
  • 2 1/4 teaspoons instant yeast 1/4-ounce packet
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 3/4 cups whole milk
  • 2 1/2 tablespoons coconut oil plus more for the bowl and dough
  • Coarse cornmeal for sprinkling
  • Cooking spray
Instructions
  • Whisk the flour, sugar, yeast, and salt in the bowl of a stand mixer. Add the egg but DON’T stir in yet.
  • Heat the milk and coconut oil in a saucepan until a thermometer reads 110F. If the milk is too hot when you add it to the flour mixture, it will kill the yeast.
  • Pour the milk mixture into the flour mixture. Avoid pouring directly on the egg — you don’t want the hot milk to cook it.
  • Using the dough hook, mix on medium speed until the dough comes together and starts to pull away from the sides of the bowl, 3 to 4 minutes. Scrape down the sides with a rubber spatula, if needed. The dough will look a little irregular in texture.
  • Turn out the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth, soft and elastic, 3 to 4 minutes. Shape into a ball and place in a large bowl lightly oiled with coconut oil; rub the top of the dough with a little more coconut oil. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until double in size, 1 to 2 hours.
  • Sprinkle 2 baking sheets with cornmeal and set aside. After the dough rises, punch it down and divide into 16 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a ball, then flatten into a 3-inch disk. Place the disks on the baking sheets.

  • Heat a 12-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Coat the skillet with cooking spray and liberally sprinkle with cornmeal. Working in batches, cook the muffins until they are deep golden brown, 5 to 9 minutes per side. If they start to rise in a domed fashion, flatten with a spatula. To check for doneness, the internal temperature of a muffin – take a thermometer and go into the side of the muffin. The temperature should be at least 200F. If it is not, finish in a 350F oven for about 10 minutes. Let the English muffins cool completely, then split open with a fork, toast and serve with whatever topping you like.

328 yesterday in MA; and 1 deceased

Yup, wouldn't be surprised if a federal lockdown is in the works (state governor is bucking a state lockdown, so far).

I've been saying all week that they need to lock the entire country down. What's the point in putting it off?

I think they are trying to figure out how to do it in such a way that essential personnel still are able to get out and about and at the same time not cause widespread panic. The grocery stores have finally started limiting certain items and still the stupid people are trying to over-buy and when called out on it, they throw a temper tantrum and start yelling like 8 year olds. I’m seeing both the best and worst of humanity in this mess. People out in public coughing and sneezing and not covering their mouths. Meanwhile, those of us in critical infrastructure still have to do our jobs and take the risks of being exposed to the virus and bringing it home to our families. Sorry about the rant, it’s been a tough week and I have a feeling it’s going to get worse before it gets better. Everybody - just be nice to one another - now go wash your hands and don’t touch your face...

Not to pry - but what do you do? I work with the construction industry and so far all of those companies we work with have been exempt from the stop work orders. Thankfully I can work from home and since they are all still working and there are so many questions I still have a lot to do.

Two things:

(1) My dog ate a roll of toilet paper.

(2) I got 2 mosquito bites and I haven’t left the house in 2 days. So unless the little jerk got me when I went to get the mail there’s a mosquito in the house. This poor bug has no idea the irrational wrath he’s about to get slapped with. Literally slapped with.
