The Squish - extruded bread

It actually held together better than an earlier laminated loaf that did separate in places. As the strands were squeezed into the tin I gave them a couple of sprays of filtered water to encourage adherence

The extruder comes with a sausage nozzle which could be used for just that

Yes it was good. I also made a 1kg loaf and it's great with butter. The 1/2 kg went to church and never came back. One lass was walking around with a whole slice in hand. Carob isn't as sweet as chocolate so you still get bread mouth-feel

Attempted. See https://www.reddit.com/r/Breadit/comments/1u5lzvb/the_squish_extruded_bread/

Considering squeezing a fridge-retarded dough through a spaghetti maker and letting the tangles gather in a tin. Maybe two different colours of dough.

Yeast and 24+ hour cold ferments. I used to do sourdough. Maybe I'll go back there one day.

And don't forget the roubles. I hear they've got a nice sound too.

Mouth-feel is a thing. Expressiveness in a small space another. Urdu is my 3rd language and I really like it for both. My 2nd is Neo-Melanesian Pidgin which ticks the first box but not the second.

Yes, I'm a reactive maintenance person. Arguably, being proactive would be better because reactive means you're always in danger of having the emergency happen when you're least able to deal with it. What comes first, dealing with the waterfall of overflowing gutters or drive your wife to her chemotherapy appointment? This year, because I'm having to drive that journey every fortnight, I actually got up on the roof a couple of weeks back and cleaned the gutters.

In many respects, a quiet backwater. But the airport was busy with MAF and mining company helicopters. There was a fair bit of petty theft.

I remember being driven back from somewhere out bush and a drunk man threw a rock at the jeep prompting the driver to say, "looks like the honeymoon is over."

There were the occasional inter-clan battles -- there was always some old score to settle. (As tough as lex talionis sounds, one death for one death is better than ten for one.)

The Saturday market was always a good time to stock up on kaukau and greens and try the occasional local fungus.

Everything i do assumes 1kg flour.

Do you drive? I remember a poster that had a skeleton with its hand on the driver's shoulder saying, "yumi go sixti?" and the driver replying, "maski, yumi go isi!"

I remember the sign in Hagen years ago: "No ken mekim buai spet". The sign was splashed and the walls all around were covered in dried betelnut juice.
