Tuesday Nights Never Stop Raining ...

... so my sister and I decided to do some baking! We followed this recipe by the most famous and beloved chef in Norway, Ingrid Espelid Hovig:

5 dl milk
100 gram yeast (fresh!)
1 kg wheat flour
250 gram butter
3 dl sugar

Take half the milk and warm it to 37 degrees celcius an
d mix it with the yeast. Mix in half of the flour and knead the dough. Let be for half an hour. Mix in the rest of the milk + butter and sugar and the rest of the milk. This is a messy affair (and we only halfway realized we only had enough butter for half the mix ... great), but with some work and fun and playing monsters we got it good and let the whole thing rest for another half an hour. And then - ta da! The rest of the dough we didn't have more butter for we made into bread.
Now it's time to make some sandwiches with mozarella cheese, pesto and some croatian ham. Yummy yum.
