German Brotchen Rolls

I recently finished reading the Baker’s Daughter by Sarah McCoy. The novel follows Elsie and her family during WWII in Germany. Elsie’s family (at least somewhat) sympathized with the Nazi party (more so, they did what they were told to keep their livelihood). It was fascinating to read a story from the perspective of a regular German citizen. The story also has a second, modern day point of view character, Reba. And honestly, I would have much rather read an entire story about Elsie instead of being interrupted by Reba. Reba was boring and whiny and I really just wanted to enjoy a good historical fiction. Thankfully, more of the story centered on Elsie and her journey through WWII, so I was able to deal with Reba. Since Elsie came from a family of Bakers (thus the title), there were many amazing breads described throughout the story. However, the one that stood out the most and had a prominent role in the story were the Brotchen Rolls. Brotchen Rolls

Soft & Chewy Italian Bread #SecretRecipeClub

It’s Secret Recipe Club Day ! In SRC, members are secretly assigned another blog, search through the recipes, make something, and then reveal! Interested in joining? Click that link for all the details! This month, I was assigned Micha’s blog, Cookin’ Mimi and I was so excited! I absolutely drool over Micha’s recipes every reveal day! Micha grew up cooking with her granddaddy and mother and it turned into her own love of cooking. She focuses on traditional southern cooking, American comfort foods, and a mix of ethnic recipes – it’s my kind of cooking! I had such fun delving into Micha’s recipes. Should I make Peanut Butter Brownie Muddy Muddies or Cloverleaf Rolls ? Or how about Mint Chocolate Pudding Brownie Parfaits or Sausage and Potato Breakfast Casserole ? All were very tempting, but what ultimately drew my eye was Chewy Italian Bread. My whole family LOVES bread. I’ve made lots of different sorts of breads, but this one especially drew my eye bec

Qdoba Three-Cheese Queso Copycat

The Superbowl is coming up (in two weeks, I know, but it's always time for queso) and the Packers aren’t in it (boo!) I’m not a huge sports fan, but I come from a long line of die-hard Packer fans, so sporting a cheesehead just comes naturally to me. Though the Packers will not be playing, I figure I can still give them a little shout out with this amazing (Cheesy) appetizer. As with any copycat recipe, this is not a perfect duplicate of my beloved Qdoba Queso, but it is a pretty good approximation! With the addition of cayenne at the end, this actually ends up being a spicier version of the original, which can be good or bad depending on your crowd (good in our case). There is also a slight graininess to the texture that isn’t perfect, but not enough to dissuade anyone from consuming boatloads of queso, looking longingly at the empty ramekins wondering, “Why is the queso gone?” Qdoba Three-Cheese Queso Copycat Adapted from The Cooking Photographer 2 po
