how were the crumpets?

(, Tue 15 Feb 2011, 19:26, 1 reply, 15 years ago)
oh!
They looked nothing like crumpets, the holes didn't really form but we ate a few at lunch and the other people at work said they were good. Including my boss who will say if things are shit.

They were a MASSIVE amount of effort though. One sec I'll find the recipe I used.

hmmm, massive amounts of effort don't sound good
I tend not to make bread and stuff often because of that. I got a bit put off after spending 4 days making turkish bread. It was good, but not good enough.

I used all plain flour though and added water at the end, so you may want to up that to 175m of warm water.

reckon I will give it a go
I've got the appropriate flour. Only thing I don't have are the rings.

edit: most importantly, put on Come Dine With Me on More 4, there's a guy who reminds me of Wooks :-D

he won't be happy about that I suspect
