TERM THREE'S WINTER WARMERS!!!!!





What a cold long winter it has been! The fine weather now it's September has been most welcome.
The kids in cooking this term have been making winter food and practising some of the techniques they have learnt in earlier terms. We have made;

PUMPKIN SOUP AND HOMEMADE BREAD

CORNISH  PASTIES


PIZZA

HOMEMADE BURGERS


We've had some requests for our pizza dough recipe that we put in the bread maker. Of course you don't need a breadmaker especially if there are lots of hands to help knead.......

PIZZA DOUGH (Enough for 3 large pizzas)
Place in the bread maker
1 cup lukewarm water
1 and a half teaspoons salt
3 tablespoons olive oil
Place carefully on top so the water is completely covered the following.....
3 and a half cups of plain flour
2 teaspoons yeast sprinkled
2 teaspoons sugar.sprinkled
Set the breadmaker on the dough setting.
All flour is different. You may need to add more water while mixing if too dry, or more flour if too wet. The dough will be soft and pliable when at the right consistency. Leave to rise for 1 hour till doubled in size and you are ready to go!
If you don't have a bread mixer most people mix the water sugar and yeast together  and leave till the mix is frothy. This means the yeast is active, then add oil and dry ingredients and knead a good 10 minutes.
