As I approach the 100th bake I can’t quite believe how many I have done. I’ve learnt a lot and had a lot of fun, and stress!! but it’s been worth it. Still a wee way to go so I won’t start celebrating yet. This is a simple recipe but it’s really the same as eating sausages wrapped in bread with mustard, though (homemade bread, so even better!) I packed them into the chilly bin just before we headed off to the beach on holiday. We had pigs in a blanket with greek salad when we got there!!! It’s sometimes the simple things in life that are the best.
I recently received a letter from the child we sponsor in Tanzania and his answer to “the best thing about this year was…” “baba mena buzi” which means father bought a goat.
woops, water instead of milk 
simple fix 
bread rolls, yum!! 🙂
I made a mistake when I was making the dough, I added water instead of milk, so I made bread rolls out of this dough and made another dough with milk for the pigs!! So we got two for the price of one, yay, can’t beat homemade bread sprinkled with sesame seeds, hot with melted butter. mmmmm. To make the pretzel dough, I added
175mls of lukewarm milk to 250g flour, 1 tsp caster sugar, 1/2 tsp salt, 1 tsp yeast and mixed in the free standing mixer with the dough hook to make a soft dough. I then left this to rise for an hour after kneading it on the bench for 10 minutes.
Once the dough was risen I punched it down and divided it into 8 sections and rolled each ball out into a 30cm long rope. I I covered the “good sausages, with herbs or plenty of spice to flavour” in mustard and wrapped the rope of dough around each one in a spiral. I egg washed these and sprinkled them with sesame seeds. Done! Baked in a hot oven for 15 minutes, a delicious meal with relish or your favourite chutney of course. I had mine with Puhoi Pantry Date and Apricot chutney. 🙂
Roll ’em up
