The last five... you may have seen my stories a few weeks ago on making sourdough croissants for the first time.
The whole process turned out much better than expected (some room for improvement though) and not wanting to consume all at once, stored the rest in the freezer. .
I wasn’t sure the quantity of sourdough starter to use and my cookbooks had only recipes for yeast versions... so turned to YouTube. If you fancy a bit of a challenge I can DM you the YouTube link. .

Bee..safe and enjoy your day. What is your favorite family cake to make? Some overly ripe bananas in the kitchen were used to make this banana cake. The extra bananas were stored in the freezer for later use. .

When preparing the broth for the udon noodle dish, it made me think about our precious food chain and how blessed we are with the availability and variety of ingredients from across the globe.
.
This may change with the current situation and while we wait for the world to heal and we have food on our table, a roof over our heads, and family are safe and in good health... we are truly blessed. .
The hot udon noodle broth was easy to make (providing you have the ingredients ) using kombo, mirin, bonito shavings and soy sauce. But as a suggestion, a flavoursome chicken broth with a dash of soy sauce would also taste good too. .
Recipe made for the #foodandtoolsUseYourCookbookClub from the “Japanese Farm Food” cookbook, by Nancy Singleton Hachisu.

Unprecedented times right now with social distancing and being told to stay home...making Udon noodles from scratch is a welcome distraction. Also made for the #foodandtoolsuseyourcookbookclub .
Normally I buy dried Udon noodles and what you see above is my rustic attempt at making them fresh and a work space covered in FLOUR. .
The udon noodle dough is made with plain flour, water and salt and the recipe from the “Japanese Farm Food” cookbook by Nancy Singleton Hachisu. Traditionally the dough is kneaded using your feet in a firm rhythmic motion. Of course the dough is sealed in a thick plastic bag beforehand and would imagine a new pair of socks kept solely for that purpose. I preferred to knead the dough by hand on my kitchen worktop. .
After rolling the dough, cut the noodles using a knife, then decided to switch over to the pasta machine. The noodle dough could have been drier and would have made cutting with a knife easier. As the saying goes “practice makes perfect” 🙂
.
Have you made Udon noodles before? Any tips for storing cooked or uncooked?

FLOUR is the ingredient pick for March #foodandtoolsUseYourCookbookClub monthly challenge. Most likely flour is already a pantry staple in your kitchen. You know how versatile flour is and these days most good supermarkets stock a variety, including gluten free flour. .
.
So, look through your cookbook collection for recipes with FLOUR. Don’t forget to post your photo of the completed dish between the 20th to 25th of this month. Hopefully you might like to join in too.
