New garden center in North Central Wisconsin that I just have to show off ☺️ #plantgardencenter @plantgardencenter

What would you buy first? Comment and tell me.

The bare roots caught my attention. WAY cheaper than if they were potted. Plus, the fruit trees are 5 years old... That's amazing.

The hydrangeas rode shotgun on the way home 😄

I'm very proud of this one. Cherry glaze from a post prior paired with a Herbs de Provence marinated pork tenderloin. A quick oven roast on a HOT cast iron griddle made for a juicy, caramelized hunk of meat.

Recipe will be on my blog soon!

I've made this many times but one of the times I used a store bought pork tenderloin, just to see if my husband would notice any difference. He did! Store bought had less flavor, wasn't as juicy and had a weird texture. Compared that to the pastured pork tenderloin from @ninepatch_farm and it's a world of difference!

Want this recipe sent directly to your inbox? Send me a message reading PORK and I'll send it over ☺️

The Morello cherry preserves were making eyes at me from the fridge, so I made a cherry rum glaze to go with pork tenderloin 😋

Super simple:
2 tbsp cherry preserves
1 tbsp each butter, rum, miso paste, maple syrup
Pinch of red chili flakes

Heat up on the stove in a saucer until bbq consistently and use to your hearts content! Duck, pork, even chicken thighs would pair well!

Whenever you see a little hand snagging something, it's candid.

I don't wish to paint the picture that cooking (or doing anything) with a toddler is all sunshine and rainbows. Sometimes hand made pasta turns into Playdo, sometimea we have a great time, sometimes a tantrum erupts.

If you are struggling with getting anything done with your toddler, I hope you don't let Instagram fool you into thinking you're alone.

Pictured are homemade egg and herb fettuccine noodles that were lovingly made by a mom and her 3 year old.

Will be served with store bought sauce tonight because I'm out of garden tomatoes and sometimes, that's life.

Sourdough discard recipe: Lemon poppy seed rum sweet bread. Bright, moist as can be and absolutely delicious.

Rum glaze is poured over top right after baking when it's still in the @lodgecastiron loaf pan, the bread absorbing it like a sponge, making it irresistibly moist.

Once cooled, buttery, lemon poppy seed glaze is poured over top.

Perfect sweet bread for fika, brunch, Easter or spring time.

Homemade Whole Wheat Spinach Fettuccine It's not

Homemade Whole Wheat Spinach Fettuccine

It's not as hard as you think. The key is to blanch and finely chop up the spinach until it's nearly a paste.

Finishing up a blog post with all the nitty gritty details but basically we have semolina, whole wheat, seasoning, spinach, eggs milk and olive oil. Knead, rest, cut (I love kitchen gadgets that don't need to be plugged in like my pasta cutter!)

With a little butter, my toddler can't get enough of these noodles 🙌

One ember + wind is all it took.
It was a hell of day, with much to be grateful for. 1 acre of brush burned. Fire department called and contained it. Good Samaritans stopped to help. The fire stopped right at our property line, Thank God.

I know what the silver lining is. Our field will grow back beautifully. We will be sowing sunflowers and planting native trees that will benefit us and the ecosystem. I'll probably have a bounty of mushrooms to harvest this year. But NEVER again do I want it to happen this way. I'm making a list of things to do to make our property safer, #1 getting rid of all the overgrown grass that is basically tinder just waiting to ignite. I'll be studying fire safety, native trees and soil biology until further notice ✌️

Country Sourdough with Rye.
I love the batard shape. For some reason final shaping comes easier to me when it's oval and I appreciate the uniform slices.
That little piece of dough that sticks out is called an "ear." This means scoring was effective and we had a good oven spring!

What is something that changed your sourdough for the better? My sourdough bread changed for the better when I started using proofing baskets rather than a tea towel lined mixing bowl.

Sprayed these loaves with a basic spray bottle right before baking. Crackly crust!

Kielbasa cabbage and onion skillet with fennel see

Kielbasa cabbage and onion skillet with fennel seed and red chili flakes... Amazing on its own, on a bun or as a side.

Cabbage has been in most dinners lately because it's an all-star for storing. Definitely planning on growing cabbage this year because of it's versatility and how much I frickin love it when it's caramelized.

I'm wrapping up my blog post breaking down how to make this easy, one pot dinner. But it's so simple, here is an outline:

Butter, shredded onions and cabbage, season with salt, pepper, fennel seed (LOVE fennel with this) and red chili flakes. Drop the Kielbasa in and brown. Dijon and apple cider vinegar come in towards the end. The cabbage and onions should be kissed with caramelization. It's addictingly good!

Cornish inspired cube steak pot pie made with a ho

Cornish inspired cube steak pot pie made with a homemade lard/butter crust.

Flakey, buttery crust covers a bed of winter veggies (parsnips, onions, carrots, potatoes, cabbage 🥬 )and cube steak bites. What I love is that the filling all goes into the skillet raw, easy prep! A low temp of 325F for an hour and a half ensures everything is super tender.

Cube steak is an economical cut of beef from @allgrassfarms Their farm store is adorable and full of grass fed, pasture raised meat, seasonal veggies and local goodies.

This sourdough loaf is a dream. It's my tried and true country loaf. If you would like the recipe comment "sourdough" or message me.

My sourdough starter is such a blessing, anyone unsure how to start one and want to start with my dehydrated starter? I'm thinking about making that happen 🤗

Reasons to dehydrate sourdough starter: In case o

Reasons to dehydrate sourdough starter:

In case of emergency. Your starter dies, spills, gets thrown out-- life happens. Keeping a dehydrated starter in the pantry ensures you don't have to start over. Some starters are family heirlooms, passed down from generation to generation. Dehydrating is your insurance policy.

Gifting. The gift that keeps on giving! I recommend 15g for gifts. Seal in an airtight container or bag. To learn how to rehydrate follow the link in my blog to my new post explaining how to dehydrate and rehydrate starter TAP-->@myrootsandrecipes

Selling. When I decided I would take a crack at baking sourdough bread I bought a 500 year old dehydrated starter. Years later, hundreds of loaves later, I'm so grateful for that tiny packet of wild yeast!

Dehydrated starter will last indefinitely in a cool, dry place. Yeast and bacteria are still very much alive even when dehydrated. All it needs is flour and water to rehydrate.

Questions? Comment below and be sure to check out my new blog post explaining the nutty gritty details 🤗

Pork lard is very easy to render down. Overnight I let the slow cooker do all heavy lifting. 12 hours on low and I had pork lard ready to be jarred.

Pastured pork lard is great for pie crusts, frying, popping popcorn and what else? You tell me in the comments below.

I'll be making Cornish pasties this week..

I feed my sourdough starter a few times a week dep

I feed my sourdough starter a few times a week depending on what I'm baking. I aim for at least once a week. In between feedings I keep it refrigerated in a closed container.

This is made with my sister @goldenoak_furniturerevival in mind. I am gifting her sourdough starter and wanted to give her directions for reference.

Written directions:

Combine 1 cup flour (I usually use bread flour) with 1 cup filtered water (NOT chlorinated water) and 3/4 cups sourdough starter. Discard remaining starter (or save for a different recipe)

Few hours later, or the next morning if fed at night, I test the starter by doing the "float test." Simply place a dollop of starter in a glass of water and see if it floats. Floater= Ready!

Next step: sourdough everything!!

Whole wheat sourdough baked in a hurry! So why bo

Whole wheat sourdough baked in a hurry!

So why bother cold proofing? (PROOFING IN THE FRIDGE)
👉To build flavor and gluten structure. If I cold proofed I would probably have had a more open crumb.

Something I did notice from baking right after room temperature proofing was an excellent oven spring. With that said, if you are experiencing FLAT sourdough after cold proofing, skip it and see what happens.

The longer I bake the more interested I become in experimenting. 🧐

SIMPLE SOURDOUGH. SOFTEST INTERIOR. My husband has

SIMPLE SOURDOUGH. SOFTEST INTERIOR.
My husband has an infinity for white bread. This is for him. I will say the soft, delicate, open crumb is wonderful. For added flavor I enjoy whole wheat and rye flavors.

Here is how I make my super simple sourdough bread:

500g bread flour
100g starter
330g water (1)
25g water (2) + 10g salt @redmondrealsalt

In a bowl, combine bread flour, starter and water (1) mix until shaggy. Cover with tea towel and rest for 30 minutes.

Separate bowl, combine water (2) and salt.

Add salt and water to the flour mix. Squeeze to combine. Let rest for 30 minutes.

Follow with 4 stretch and folds 30 minutes or so apart. If the dough isn't flexible, wait longer.

Let rest an hour after the 4 stretch and folds.

Preshape, let rest 20 minutes then final shape.

Proof in proofing basket until finger print quicky disappears when pressed into bread.

Refrigerate overnight in proofing basket, covered with tea towel.

Bake in preheated Dutch oven 475F.
20 minutes covered, 20 minutes uncovered.
The top should be caramelized and bubbly like, if you listen you may even hear crackling 🤗

Slice when cooled completely.
