I was going to make the Rosemary Crescent Rolls from Artisan Bread in 5 minutes a day’s website, but didn’t have enough fresh rosemary in my herb planter.  So this is my take!

I am supposed to be able to make this with the following ingredients alone:

herbs, dough, oil & salt

I followed the directions exactly, except I hate cleanup!  So I patted the dough to 1/4″ thick, rather than roll it out.  And I LOVE BUTTER, so I buttered my cookie sheets rather than oil them.  The prep work all in all took less than 10 minutes including cleanup.

I then let them rest for the entire 1 hour as I’m using whole wheat flour which tends to be a little denser.  Then they were ready for the oven!

25 minutes later and it was taste test time!

I found that the 25 minutes was a little long for these little crescents, but tasted yummy nonetheless!  And so easy too!  Don’t take my word for it, whip up a batch yourself!

Warmest regards,

Okay, so now that I’m back on the ball, bet you’ve been waiting on the edge of your seat to see how the Artisan Bread in 5 Minutes a Day turned out for me on Friday!  But you’ll have to wait a few minutes longer as there’s some more info to note first.

As previously mentioned, hubby took poppet and me out for a date Thursday night to the food court at the mall, and then on to Chapters and to have a latte at Starbucks.  It was wonderful!  Poppy really enjoyed getting to eat the whipped cream off the top of Papa’s latte!  (one side note, I was THRILLED at the excellent customer service we received there!  SUPERB!)  Hubby also bought me the cutest little cup, which has become my new favourite post-baby diet tool!

Isn’t it cute?!

I broke it in with a perfect Raspberry & Hazelnut Latte!

The bread by the way turned out PERFECT!  I used all whole wheat, and still was awesome.  I made it late Friday, and finished the loaf off this morning.  The crust was perfectly crisp, and the inside never dried out!  Amazing!  Was still great as toast at breakfast.

I’ll post again as I try more of the recipes in the book!

I asked my husband to take us on a date tonight (Poppy and me).  Nowhere fancy.  Our favourite place is to go to the local Chapters store and browse books, or let Poppy enjoy the toys in the kids area.  We usually order a Venti latte from the Starbucks in the store and have them put it into 2 grande cups (saves a bundle) and off we venture into the aisles of books, upon books, upon books.  Anyone who has ever been to my house knows, at some point in the night someone will say, “you sure must read a lot of books!”  You are greeted with them in almost every area of the house on tall bookshelves.

I have a penchant for cookbooks.  They are part of my identity.  So I was SUPER excited to run across this site this morning.  I’m heading right to their book tonight and will let you know how it turns out tomorrow.  Anyone who promises Artisan Breads in only 5 minutes of work a day has my curiosity on full alert!
