Something’s Cookin’ Saturday: Hot Dog Buns

by Beth Montgomery on March 6, 2010 · 0 comments

in Cooking, Recipes

I’d never made hot dog buns before, but they were so easy!
I just used the Amish Bread recipe I shared a few weeks ago.  I made the dough in my breadmaker, then shaped them to rise, then cook.  Just don’t make them too big, or they’ll be huge when they rise. I learned that one [...]

by Beth Montgomery on February 27, 2010 · 1 comment

in Cooking, Recipes

I bought a few turkeys when they were on sale around Thanksgiving.  Large turkeys are a wonderful way to make tons of meals using one main ingredient.  I served plan turkey the first night, then used it to make amazing Turkey & Dumplings the 2nd night. We also enjoyed turkey sandwiches on some homemade Amish [...]

Something’s Cookin’ Saturday: Amish Sandwich Bread

by Beth Montgomery on February 20, 2010 · 4 comments

in Cooking, Recipes

I love making homemade bread.

This recipe is [...]
