A slice of homemade bread, and wait for it...Concord Grape Jam Spread.
Oh my! I am a fan of concord grapes, I tried to grow them here in the back yard...give everything a good Farmhouse Worthy try...
We found this at our local farm market, I just popped it open and put it on the fresh loaf of bread....
It isn't jelly or jam, but a spread....kind of like apple butter consistancy.I'll take this opportunity to share the bread recipe I use.
WRITE THIS RECIPE ON A RECIPE CARD OR IN YOUR RECIPE NOTEBOOK, SO YOU CAN ACCESS IT ANY TIME AT A MOMENTS NOTICE
Amish White Bread ( 1 loaf)
1 cup warm water
2 1/4 tsp of yeast. ( I use bulk from Amish) but I believe the packets are the same, but check.
1/3 cup sugar
These 3 things go in your mixing bowl, and they will proof 10 min until it is bubbly.
After the 10 minutes and the yeast is proofed...
add:
3 cups flour ( I am currently working through store bought flour) so if you are grinding your own berries as I will be soon, I'm not sure yet how much flour. That is a skill set I will be learning soon.
2 tbs oil ( I use Olive Oil)
3/4 tsp salt
mix this for 10 minutes in a stand mixer it will be the kneading process also.
turn into a greased bowl, rise for 1 hour
shape into loaf, and place into greased loaf pan.
I bake my 20-25 @ 350 degrees ( yours may vary)
Enjoy!
I can't think of anything else which I do that gives me as much joy as making bread...
I love everything about making bread.
Stay simple, learn things, be joyful
It is all Farmhouse Worthy

I have my bread recipe written on a paper taped inside a cupboard door. Also my recipe for biscuits/scones ( basically the same recipe with the addition of some sugar and an egg for scones).
