We opened the stirred curd cheddar 1 lb. wheel of cheese to see how it did. It tastes like a sharp cheddar cheese. I can't wait to try it in some grilled cheese sandwiches.
We had a good dinner tonight of oven baked chicken from Soul Food Farm in Vacaville, along with the first sweet potatoes of the season from Eatwell Farm and some green beans also from Eatwell. Dessert was an apple crisp with apples from Eatwell, too.
Later in the evening I put together a whole wheat soaker and poolish for some whole wheat bread baking tomorrow. The Fidibus 21 grain mill is awesome. This time I ground the wheat berries on the finest setting and got some beautiful flour to use in the soaker and poolish. The recipe I'm going to use for the whole wheat bread is from Peter Reinhart's Bread Baker's Apprentice. This time I think I will reduce the white flour to just one cup and see what difference that makes.
