Kimchi and stir fry mushrooms and spinach - go to summer meal

The Cherry Creek Farmers Market is getting busier on Saturdays as more booths appear and more people are in the mood for local produce. My favorite go-tos that have been there since day one are Unni's Kimchi - a new booth from two sisters who moved here from South Korea. I was actually their very first customer since I get to the market when it opens on Saturday. The other is a wonderful local mushroom grower. I didn't know until watching a special on Colorado Public Television that this state is a large producer of mushrooms. They have different varieties each week and I stir fry their mushrooms with some spinach from another booth, spoon on some "Magic Soy Sauce" from Unni's and serve it over brown rice with a big spoonful of kimchi (cabbage or Korean radish). Delicious!

Sourdough class and snowy day at the dog park

The sourdough bread baking class was pretty interesting. I was impressed by the preparation of the instructor and the materials we were sent home with. We have a document with a recipe and FAQ of common issues. We also left with: starter, dough ready to shape into a loaf, dough rising in a cloth-lined basket ready to bake, and a loaf of bread baked in class. The only real issue was that the kitchen we used for the class was not heated on a Saturday so we were pretty cold and the bread certainly did not care for it. The loaves we took home baked were very flat and didn't tasted great. The one I made later that evening that rose in our warm kitchen was quite good and the one I baked the next day out of the dough I had mixed myself in class was pretty good too. I'm keeping a journal of factors and results so I can tweak and hopefully get better at all this. But I will say freshly baked bread tasted great with the homemade smoked chicken and potato soup I made from scratch on...
