Maine Grains Pancakes

1.25 Maine Grains Organic Multigrain Flour Blend 1/2 tsp salt

2.25 tsp baking powder (reduced from 1 Tbsp because of aftertaste) 1 T sugar

1 egg

1 cup milk, thinned yogurt, buttermilk, sour milk

2 tbsp melted butter

Very tasty, won't hold together when flipped because they're very low in gluten so you've got to make them quite small - probably no more than 5 inches in diameter

Delicious and a bit eggy. I made a batch to make 6 pancakes and the batter started deflating quite quickly. I spoke to Bee and she said that what they do in her café is mix the egg yolk mixture up the morning, then whip the egg white portion of the batter to order. Use the batter right away to avoid deflation. Use an IR thermometer to keep the pan temperature between 275F and 310F. Lightly oil your pan, pipe or scoop the batter, add a little water, cover for roughly five minutes depending on pancake size, flip, cover for roughly five minutes again.

How to Make the Best Strata You've Ever Tasted

No recipe required.

Used this article to make strata with the equilibrium bread from Woodpepper with fresh thyme, asparagus, and gruyere. It was good, but a bit too bland. Needs something besides the salt and pepper I added to juice it up - maybe mustard? My 8x8 pan took roughly 4 cups of bread. Soaked it overnight, bake time was much longer than specified because I was trying to get it to 165F.

Image of original recipe is in the "Food" folder. x1 batch is for one 16oz drink, and you need to add 1.5 tsp honey to the matcha mixture to make it sweet enough. Using an immersion blender works well, but don't process for more than around 30 seconds or the butterfat in the heavy cream will begin to separate out. You'll know you've gone too far if the mixture begins to darken in tone. Add only half the matcha mixture shown in this image.
