Bought an Otto pressure cooker; it arrived yesterday. Today, we made beef brisket (from Makro). 75 minutes cooking time, 20 minutes to de-pressurize naturally. Results: super-tender & delicious.

They look good, but I’m guessing a potato is a lot easier to bake...

Recalculated

Made biscuits again, these are Muesli, peanut, ginger and Choc chip.

 

Chicken cordon bleu on toasted small baguettes.

(Wish I had some Muesli biscuits for dessert!)

I did roast pork and chips for me and my boy this evening.

 

That pork looks nice, some fresh applesauce with it....

Soda bread using milk and white vinegar instead of buttermilk.

How was it?

Nice with ham and cheese, I'll make it often now that I've tweaked the original recipe.

May l ask what flour you used please?

I have plain flour and some google search says add 2 teaspoons of baking powder per 200g, others say 2 teaspoons per 150g.

Any recommendation?

 

Thanks.

Star all purpose flour ..... 24bht/Kg.

The amount of baking powder isn't that important, but the speed you finish the mixing and cutting after adding liquid is.

It starts to rise the instant it's wet, so you need to mix, roll and cut within 2 minutes of adding the liquid.

Much appreciated and thank you.
