Sounds to me like Breizh may even make their batter the day before and rest it overnight. I'll definitely be giving the gluten idea a go...gives me another thing to buy and try!

joethefoodie Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 Delivered from The Rice Factory yesterday. What they've received of the 2020 rice crop, milled the day it's shipped. I bought some at 50% milled, and some white. Along with some umeboshi, and a sample box of a few other rices. If you're local, there's not necessarily a need to order online...Ni Japanese Deli (in the Essex Market) stocks some of these rices, though obviously they will not have been milled on the day you're buying them. They stock others too; great little shop. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Anthony Bonner Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 so is this more of what the Kool Kids are doing with J-I-T milling? When I first started baking the state of the art was "milled flour needs to rest" and now its "You really need to buy this home mill" Quote Link to post Share on other sites
joethefoodie Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 I'm more interested in the new crop rice, but whatevs. And not to worry - I won't be buying any home mills...the people I know who have mills at home have had them for way longer than the kids, and they mill other than wheat. Interestingly, restaurants don't especially love the new crop rice, from what I read. Too hard to cook and hold consistently, I guess. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe tmi, but not a problem I've ever had...except on heavy opiates! It's not like that's all we eat. Cooked a batch of the 50% milled last night - very tasty, might need a tiny bit of tweaking in terms of how much liquid I used. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

StephanieL Posted 22 hours ago Share Posted 22 hours ago Don't apologize at all. We have a lot of premade frozen things ready in the freezer for when we don't want to cook. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
