28 Day Real Food Challenge – Week 2 Recap
This week wasn’t as full of as much “SUDDEN CHANGE” than week 1. For which I am glad – not sure I could have removed anything else from my kitchen!
The biggest hurdle to overcome was cooking with the appropriate fats. I cook EVERYTHING in olive oil and butter…. when I should be cooking everything in fats like coconut oil and ghee. Whoops. I think I’m doing okay with that now, but it’s taken a bit of an adjustment. Not to mention I accidentally bought unrefined coconut oil the last time I went to the store – smells like a fresh coconut – not great for frying chicken – but I bet it will be amazing in baked goods!
I also had a MASSIVE failure with my first attempt at sourdough bread – and also learned that my sourdough starter tastes like … well… not good. Awful. BLECH! I caved and ordered a starter – hoping it will get here soon and then I can make another attempt. The wild yeast in my kitchen is NASTY. Maybe I’ll try again in the summer when I can stick the jar outside.
I also found a source of raw milk this week… I’m on a waiting list.
