Grandma’s Cooking School: Homemade Bread & Sweet Rolls
Erica Lea on Jul 7th 2010
{Grandma’s Cooking School is my chronicles of the informal cooking lessons that my Grandma graciously decided to give us girls. I have compiled a list of all the lessons so far. Enjoy!}
I am at a loss for words to describe these delicious creations, so I’ll let the photos do (most of) the talking.
Grandma’s homemade bread. Light, flavorful, delicious.
I love Grandma’s flour/baking drawer.
And her cupboards.
Grandma showed us a different way to form loaves: folding!
Now, the cinnamon/sticky buns. Much butter is required.
Proofing and baked. Can it get any better than this?
**Next Time on Grandma’s Cooking School: Apple Strudel**
Here is the list of our lessons so far.

I’ve missed your updates! Come back soon
I love following your blog! Many of your posts remind me of my own experiences… especially Grandma’s homemade bread
Your pictures are incredible and as usual everything looks delicious! Keep up the awesome posts. Thank you.
My bread never turns out like Grandma’s! Does she use gluten?
Melanie: No, I don’t believe she uses gluten. Seems like magic, eh?
I love what you are doing. My friends and I always talk about how we miss our mother’s home cooking and how we wish we haven’t written down their recipes. Your “Grandma’s Cooking School” is brilliant! I wish I had the sensibility to have done the same thing.
Yum! I would like one of those cinnamon rolls now, please

I just discovered your site on Tastespotting. What a joy! You are an amazingly talented young woman. I love making family recipes and recipes friends have given me from their families…so much history lies behind a recipe. Your kind and loving nature shines through!
