Ingredients

• ✓ water
• milk
• white sugar
• active dry yeast
• bread flour
• salt
• olive oil

Instructions

1. 1 Mix milk and water in a pot over low heat. Heat, stirring constantly, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the pot reads 110 degrees F (43 degrees C). Remove from heat. Add sugar and stir to dissolve. Pour mixture into a cup or other cylindrical glass; sprinkle yeast on top. Let mixture rest until yeast is frothy and fragrant, about 10 minutes.
2. 2 Stir flour and salt together in a large mixing bowl. Pour in yeast mixture and mix until a sticky dough forms.
3. 3 Turn dough out on a floured work surface and knead quickly for 5 minutes. Shape dough into a ball. Grease a large bowl with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add dough; toss around the bowl a few times to coat evenly with oil. Cover with plastic wrap and a towel. Let rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
4. 4 Return dough back to the work surface and punch down. Coat your hands with a little olive oil and knead again for 1 minute. Divide into 5 balls. Flatten balls out into thick rectangles. Place rectangles of dough onto a greased baking sheet. Brush tops with a thin coat of olive oil. Let rest for 20 minutes.
5. 5 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) while dough rests.
6. 6 Bake bread in the preheated oven for 12 minutes. Switch to the broil setting until the tops of rolls turn golden brown, about 1 minute. Remove from the baking sheet and allow to cool completely. Cut rolls in half lengthwise.

Ingredients

• ✓ water
• ✓ water
• whole milk
• white sugar
• butter
• active dry yeast
• all-purpose flour
• cinnamon
• cardamom
• butter
• raisin
• walnut
• egg
• almond
• pearl sugar

Instructions

1. 1 Whisk together warm milk, 1/2 cup sugar, warm water, and 2 tablespoons melted butter in a large bowl until sugar is dissolved. Sprinkle yeast over the top and set aside for 5 minutes.
2. 2 Once yeast is foamy, stir in flour, adding more as needed to form a stiff dough. When dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes. Place into an oiled bowl, cover with a cloth, and let stand in a warm place until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour.
3. 3 Combine remaining 1/2 cup sugar, cinnamon, and cardamom in a small bowl; set aside.
4. 4 Deflate dough and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Roll dough into a 9x13-inch rectangle and brush with 1/2 cup melted butter. Sprinkle with cardamom-sugar mixture, raisins, and walnuts. Roll into a log, pinch the edges closed, and place onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Cover with a cloth and let stand in a warm place until doubled in bulk, about 1 hour.
5. 5 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
6. 6 Using a sharp knife, score the top layer of the roll with V-shapes that don't quite meet in the middle, the whole length of the roll. This will give the bread an attractive braided appearance, but can be skipped.
7. 7 Beat egg with 1 tablespoon water in a small bowl until well combined; brush over the top of bread. Sprinkle with almonds and pearl sugar.
8. 8 Bake in the preheated oven until bread is golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped on the bottom, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool completely on a wire rack before slicing.

7. 7 Punch down dough; turn out onto a floured work surface and divide into 3 loaves. Place each loaf into a prepared pan; lightly brush each top with 1 teaspoon butter.
8. 8 Cover pans with a clean cloth; set aside to rise until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
9. 9 Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
10. 10 Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour. Reduce the oven temperature to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C); continue baking until a toothpick inserted into centers comes out mostly clean, about 30 minutes more. Cool slightly, remove from pans, and cool on wire racks.

Ingredients

• ✓ water
• ✓ water
• kirby cucumber
• kosher salt
• garlic
• dill
• chile de arbol pepper

Instructions

1. 1 Pour 1/2 gallon water into a large container or pot. Cover loosely and allow to sit for 24 hours to allow dissolved chlorine to escape.
2. 2 Crisp cucumbers by storing in the refrigerator or soaking in very cold water for 1 hour.
3. 3 Bring 1 cup water to a boil in a saucepan. Add salt and stir to combine. Set aside to cool.
4. 4 Wash cucumbers in cold water and remove any blossoms clinging to them. Quarter large cucumbers lengthwise; cut medium cucumbers in half lengthwise; leave gherkin-sized cucumbers whole.
5. 5 Peel and gently crush garlic cloves, but don't splinter them into fragments.
6. 6 Pour cooled salt water into a 1/2-gallon mason jar. Add cucumbers, garlic, dill, and dried chile peppers, arranged attractively. Pack cucumbers tightly; they will shrink as they pickle. Fill the jar with dechlorinated water until cucumbers are just covered to avoid overly diluting brine.
7. 7 Loosely cover the jar and set it aside at room temperature; set the jar on a dish if it is full to catch any dribbles. Let sit undisturbed until fermentation begins, 12 to 24 hours.
8. 8 Refrigerate pickles in brine and loosely covered as they approach the pickling stage you prefer: new, half-sour, or sour. Don't overshoot the mark, as refrigeration slows but does not stop fermentation.
