What are you having for dinner?

My oh my oh my. Carb heavy but tasty.

First off I had some leftover pizza sauce from yesterday's pizza and a little mozzarella cheese leftover as well. Then i remembered i had a package of potato gnocchi someone gave me. So i boiled the gnocchi and drained off the starchy water a few times in hopes that it wouldnt stick when I added the sauce. And cheese.

Yesterday when making the pizza dough I decided I wanted to try and make my own bread. So using a little of the yeast I started a dough and let it rise all afternoon. I put it in the fridge overnight to keep any bugs out and this morning set a cast iron skillet in the sun to warm a while then put the bowl into to pan just outta the sun and let it warm up and rise some more.

I was a little too aggressive turning the dough out into the skillet and it fell so I sat it in the sun a little longer while I was working on the fire. It didnt rise very much and after baking I thought it was gonna be a dud. The top was hard an hadnt browned. So I put it directly over the coals until I could smell it browning then flipped it and slathered with the rest of my imported French butter and browned the other side.

The gnocchi was pretty darn good but my hard lumpy bread was oh so tender in the middle and just crusty on all sides. It had more flavor than any yeast roll I've ever had in a restaurant. I was in such a hurry I didnt take pictures. But I will definitely repeat this experiment. Maybe next time I'll add some herbs and cheddar cheese to the dough and be more careful turning the dough out into the pan.
