Sharing our Baking with Friends

The best part of cooking or baking is sharing it with others. Today, Rainey Room and Tucker Room got the enjoy the persimmon bread that KW baked yesterday. For a lot of us, it was the first time we had tried persimmon bread. It can take a couple tries to warm up to a new food but for many of us, it was a lovely surprise treat.

​
​Lily: It's persimmon bread. It's bread that's made out of persimmons!

Luke: How did you make it
Finlay: We adde raisins and sugar. That's the most IMPORTANT ingredient. 

Hugh: It's like banana bread
​Capers: We used the right mixture

Wilder: I ate mine!
​Saul: It's yummy for me.
Remy and Capers: Nibble, nibble, nibble!

Giacomo: It smells like ginger bread

This was a surprise for Tucker room. The friends in Tucker Room were just as excited to eat it as they were to figure out what it was made of.  Can you guess what goes into the persimmon bread recipe?

Maxon: Yummy!
Marley: i have some
Jane: I think the persimmon bread is very good.
Sylvie: I’m waiting because I want to make an arrangement.
Jack: I devoured mine!

Guessing the ingredients

Nora: Is there ginger?
Jill: Surprise. There is no ginger
Sylvie: Flour
Jill: Gluten free flour
Jack: Sugar?
Janie: It looks like chocolate chips.
Jill: No chocolate. Those are raisins.
CC: I can taste raisins
Lochie: It kind of tastes like banana bread. JJ loves banana bread so she would love this.
Giacomo: A vanilla bean?
Jill: There is vanilla, Giacomo but not a bean.
Maxon: (nutmeg) You can't taste it because it's all mixed in. Vanilla comes from a vanilla bean. Chocolate comes from cacao. There's dark chocolate and milk chocolate.
