This month Breadchick Mary of The Sour Dough and Sara of I Like to Cook teamed up to share Julia Child’s French bread recipe with us. The original recipe can be found in Mastering the Art of French Cooking Vol. 2 by Julia Child and Simone Beck. Rather than posting the recipe here (It’s very lengthy and includes lots of variables, but don’t be intimidated. It’s actually quite easy to make and results in a wonderful, artisan-style French bread!) Breadchick Mary has kindly posted the original recipe here. I ended up … Continue reading →]]> http://www.dawnsrecipes.com/french-bread-a-la-home-depot-270.htm/feed 39 http://www.dawnsrecipes.com/individual-lemon-meringue-tarts-249.htm http://www.dawnsrecipes.com/individual-lemon-meringue-tarts-249.htm#comments Mon, 28 Jan 2008 16:15:28 +0000 Dawn http://www.dawnsrecipes.com/individual-lemon-meringue-tarts-249.htm This is my second Daring Bakers challenge recipe, and I’m happy to say it was another success!

The recipe can be easily adapted for a single large tart, a pie, “free-form” or tinless tarts, or even made in muffin cups. I’ll describe the method I used here.

The Daring Bakers are a group of food bloggers who challenge each other with a recipe once a month. A part of the challenge rules, we do not stray from the recipe except where the challenger makes exceptions. In this case we were given a “Tender Potato Bread” recipe and allowed variations in the topping, filling and shaping of the finished bread. With the dough, I made a large loaf topped with butter and sesame seeds, then used what was left to form a small focaccia with rosemary and caramelized onions. … Continue reading →]]> http://www.dawnsrecipes.com/tender-potato-bread-and-an-onion-focaccia-216.htm/feed 33
