Pullman Loaf (Beard on Bread)
2 pkg active dry yeast (10g instant)
1 1/2c water (360g)
2tsp sugar (10g)
6 1/2c flour (720g = 6c; didn't need the extra 1/2c)
1T + 2tsp salt (25g)
1 stick butter

Cut  butter into flour. Two risings + one proof.


Dampfnudel (GBBO, modified)

Dough:
500g strong flour
100g sugar
7g instant yeast
150g milk
2 eggs
70g butter
zest of one lemon (minus a tsp)

Poaching Liquid:
25g butter
150g milk
25g sugar

Vanilla Sauce:
150g milk
150g cream
3 yolks
1/2tsp vanilla paste
50g sugar

Blackberry Sauce:
10oz frozen blackberries
40g sugar
1/2tsp lemon zest

These were fabulous, even though we didn't watch them closely enough and burned them. The vanilla sauce on its own was far too sweet, but went pretty well with the blackberries.

Milk & Honey Cinnamon Rolls

50g flour
180g milk

Make roux.

Whisk together:
200g flour
5g instant yeast
5g salt

Add to flour along with roux:
60g honey
15g water
1 yolk

Knead in 4T butter (used three, as that was all that was thawed)

One 84*F rise, one refrigerated rise, final proof at 84*F.

Filling
4T butter, melted
30g brown sugar
10g cinnamon (Ceylon)
1 capful vanilla
1 egg white
65g chopped walnuts
20g currants

The filling was tasty, but very dry. Needed more butter and/or sugar, and/or less cinnamon. The rolls were great.
