Don’t forget to add beer into the dough mix.
Helps to give fluffy light texture.
Already formulating my glaze… honey with some limoncello.
Drunken baking FTW!

Hmm maybe I should wait until I am clearer of mind.
Have you started them yet?
Nah not yet …
Definitely in the morning … just need a little snoozle right now.
One of the many reasons we need an aa youtube chanel.

How much proving went on? Were they rising?
When it comes to paternity or HCBs Mr MWS always demands prove
I proved the dough for an hour or so, it probably doubled in size. I made the buns and left them for about 10 mins and it looked like they had risen a bit but the recipe didn’t really ask for anything else at this stage. I did use the conventional oven and the buns took longer to cook in it than the recipe stated. I suppose they had about 10 minutes more. They didn’t seem to grow much in the oven…
That last recipe I made called for an hour’s worth, knocking back, then 30 mins more, then into bun shapes on a tray, inside a sealed bag & 40 mins like that before going in the oven. A right palaver.
Up with the larks…
Butter, salted, slightly.
Lemon, unwaxed, prior to grating.
Everyone should experience this feeling on a morning, especially with eyes closed for extra enhancement.
Floury dog.
Ready to prove.

Hmmmm… maybe I should have proved more. Does it sound like a proving issue to you? The dough did seem to have the correct consistency as I was making them, nice and elastic.
This recipe asks for at least an hour and a half proving…
What is it with the pencil? Are you trying to draw on your plumbing experience?
Hope you washed your hands. 
Nearly and hour and a half prove time and definitely doubled in size. Going to leave for another 20 mins.
One small note of alarm though… there is a funny smell from it.
I am no Hercule Poirot but it could be that the labels on the spice jars may not be a true representation of what is inside. I strongly suspect that the ground spice mix may be Garam Masala ffs. That wife of mine…
