Baker’s snack: Salt + pepper chips with cottage cheese

Let me preface this by saying: I am most definitely in no way, at all, ever, a cottage cheese eater. I have disliked it since I first met it, and despite sporadic further attempts it has remained very firmly on my “no eat” list.

However:

Baker’s snack: A bit of bread and chocolate

Hunger pangs lead the way this time.

A bit of fresh baguette, a bit of melty chocolate, a bit of flaky sea salt.

Split open a baguette (the fresher the better), place a few bits of chocolate on each side, and place in a hot oven/toaster oven until the chocolate is soft. Spread it with a butter knife, sprinkle on some flaky sea salt. The salt makes the chocolate come alive!

And if you realize your chocolate is a little on the dark side (read: bitter), you might want to add some peanut butter and a drizzle of vanilla bean paste. Just sayin’.

p.s. I was up at 72% cocoa chocolate … super delicious on its own, but you might want to stick with 55-65% chocolate here.

Baker’s snack: hard-boiled egg surplus edition

New recipe post coming tomorrow … think cinnamon, sugar, nutmeg, and donuts that aren’t really donuts. It’s a crazy mix-up world in my kitchen!

In the meantime, you should probably make a snack. If you have a million hard-boiled eggs hanging out in your fridge – as I currently do – this is a pretty good idea:

Hard-boiled egg, salt and pepper, and a healthy dollop of chili garlic sauce (from the Sriracha folks). In the last few days, I’ve eaten more of these than I care to admit.

I’ll just go ahead and file this in my new “baker’s snack” folder.
