Our Cookbook Blog

Our Cookbook ~ What We Cook, is a compilation of every recipe we (Janice and Carissa) cook - recipes from our cookbook collections, our recipe boxes, and our heads! We set up this blog for friends and family who have our cookbook to let them see pictures we post of the recipes in the book, and also for us to note any corrections, revisions, or additions to What We Cook. We encourage people who are cooking our recipes to let us know how the recipes turn out and any suggestions they might want to make.

In addition, we will be sharing some of our new recipes (along with pictures) that are not in our cookbook. We hope you will help us out and test recipes and give us your comments.

No-Knead Harvest Bread ~ page 284

What a terrific bread this is! This was the first time I have made this recipe of my mom's. It couldn't be easier! You make the dough in the evening and leave it on the counter while you sleep, then in the morning put it in a pan and leave it another 2 hours, then bake it in a cold oven! (the oven starts off cold) How much easier can you get?
I know if sounds weird, but you cook it in a 2 qt. glass casserole dish with a lid. I didn't feel like splurging on golden raisins at the store, so I just used regular raisins with the cranberries and walnuts. YUM!
Above is the finished product in the pan...
The girls and I literally ate half the loaf in one sitting! It had amazing texture and chewiness! I will definitely be making this again soon. I can't wait to try it as toast in the morning. --Carissa
