Washing Up
Buon Giorno,
Since we are going to see Bruce Springsteen Sunday evening, in the Madrid Capital perform live, I have decided to prepare Eggs Benedict for Brunch ...
However, it is not an easy feat to find English Muffins in the Mediterranean, so I have learnt to prepare my own, with a little help from my Mom Eva ... Here is the recipe ... You shall require a griddle ...
English Muffins
1 package Yeast
1/4 cup warm water
1 1/4 cup scalded whole cow milk
1 tblsp sugar
1 tsp salt
3 cups sifted flour all purpose
1 cup corn flour
1/4 cup butter room temperature
1. soften yeast in warm water and pour scalded milk over sugar, salt and butter and cool to luke warm
2. stir in 1 cup flour and add softened yeast and corn meal
combined well
3. beat 2 minutes at medium speed on electric mixer
4. beat in remaining flour to create a soft dough
5. cover and let rise in warm place without drafts until it doubles in bulk - about one hour
6. stir down dough and roll out to about 1 inch on surface sprinkled with corn meal heavily
7. cut with 3 inch round cutter and cover and let rest for 30 mins.
8. preheat griddle to medium hot and grease griddle lightly
9. carefully place muffins, corn meal side down on griddle
10. bake until bottom is golden brown about 20 mins.
11. turn and bake an additional 20 mins.
12. let cool
13. store in refrig until time to serve and then split with a sharp knife or fork and toast under broiler
Have a lovely Saturday,
Ciao.
