#feta — Public Fediverse posts

Sometimes I end up working extra late and just want some quick supper. This is one of my reliable quick recipes. Honey roasted Feta with some sort of bread thing. Yes, literally a block of cheese for supper #GirlDinner

I tend to stay gluten free due to a partner that has an allergy. She requested that I make the bread part softer if possible. Actual dialogue afterwards:

> "So soft!"
> "I'm pretty good at making things go soft sometimes"
> "A being of many talents" (muffled by the bread and giggles)

How does one make prepackaged bread soft?

- Get it wet
- Heat it up
- Add some oil/fat/slippery stuff
- Flip it
- Heat it
- Spread out the oils and add more if needed
- Flip it again
- Spread the fluids some more
- Heat it
- Eat it, appreciating the softness of the flesh, savoring the texture on your lips and flavor on your tongue.

For folks that want some extra clarity:

Moisture helps introduce softness. But not too much. I basically patted it down with water. Heating it a bit allows the water to absorb a bit faster and just sort of kick starts the whole thing. If using a fat like butter or ghee, they're easier to apply on a warmed up bread than a cool and clammy one.

If using dough it's a bit different, but you'd still be adding moisture and fats. Fats to help control how much structure is formed (it lowers gluten production if using a gluteny dough) and a moisture ratio to help determine flakiness.

It gets quite a bit more complicated than that, but it's one of the first things I learned as a child when fascinated by my aunties and grandma turning basically powder into a dough ball that we could then eat after running through fire. Earth, water, air and fire are all used at different stages in the ritual of bread making.
