Spike’s Beer Bread(TM)
Delivered Fresh To Your Door
Believe it or not Spike is a good cook. It may be the one thing this out of control kid does well and can take some pride in. Baking may also combine with other things , yet unknown, to eventually lift him above his misery. Every kid has something , although ‘something’ often means some kid is staring endlessly at a computer.
But baking is Spike’s thing. It probably works for him because it is solitary and he doesn’t have to depend on any one else to make it work. No one can let him down unless, of course, they say they don’t like his bread. But, they don’t ever say that they don’t like it; not even behind his back. It really is a terrific bread. Spike is an artisanal baker although one with an attitude.
Spike uses organic flour, well-water, beer, vinegar and sea salt. Spike also bakes a variety of dried herbs into his bread; sometimes it’s tarragon, dill or rosemary, or maybe basil and sometimes black sesame seed. He likes sunflower seeds, too. It all depends on what he can swipe from his Mom’s pantry.
Spike has perfected beer bread. It results from an ancient form of bread baking. The process relies on the few simple ingredients noted above, though simple is sometimes the most difficult to accomplish. Spike never uses any preservatives, fillers or enhancers.
Spike’s Beer Bread(TM) is a bread that starts with a wet dough. The wet dough is poured into a hot dutch oven where the combination of steam and yeast act as leavening agents. It bakes slowly in the comforting heat of a old fashioned stove. The result is a crusty, dense, moist bread that doesn’t dry out quickly. Even days later, it makes a wonderful old world toast. It is so good, you don’t even need butter. If you want to get fancy, Spike recommends a bread dip of dried herbs steeped in olive oil. If you have Beer Bread left over, it makes a sensational bread pudding which, Spike promises, will be available to you in the future.
An approximately 3-lb loaf of Spike’s Beer Bread(TM) is a perfect accompaniment to Special Ed PTO potlucks, day passes from the hospital, reform school reunions, parent’s day at residential facilities and as a great gift for some traumatized foster parent, too. But it, also, caused a sensation with diners at Harmony Hill in Connecticut and Monhegan Island in Maine to name just two.
