 Prosciutto Wrapped Pork Loin

(Pork wrapped in pork and stuffed with pork and apples roasted in apples with apple chicken gravy)

This was so succulent, tangy, and savory!

Everyone needs to make it. If you cant make it ask your loved one too do it for you. You NEED to taste it!

I'll have to post the recipe later. I just ate 2 big slices of mine and now I need to bask in the memory assuming a more horizontal position.

Honey Lavender Rolls

2-1/4 tsp dry yeast or one packet
1 cup milk
4 T butter
2 tsp sugar
2 eggs beaten
3-1/2 cups flour
1-3/4 tsp salt
2 T melted butter to glaze
plus to grease bowls
1/4 cup honey
1 tsp lavender ground

sprinkle the yeast into a shallow large dish of 1/2 cup of lukewarm milk. let it set a few while you mix salt and flour in a bowl. warm the other 1/2 cup of milk over low heat with 4 T butter and the sugar. Cool until warm and not so hot and beat in eggs. add yeast/milk mixture in and beat.

mix flour and salt in a large bowl
stir yeast and milk mixture into the flour mixture

knead in ground lavender or chamomile or cinnamon
knead 5-10 min
use flour to keep the dough from sticking at first but
dont add too much or the dough will get dry
switch to butter after a spell
that will keep it from sticking

let dough rise 1 to 1-1/2 hours or until doubled in size. i put the dough in a large buttered bowl and grease the dough ball up too. i put that in the kitchen sink over the drain to block it off a bit and run
a small stream of hot water in the sink around the bowl put a wire rack over the sink and lay a towel over it. it makes a steam room for the dough and it rises fast and fluffy.
punch down dough once or twice
set 10 min

use butter to keep dough from sticking
cut into 3 pieces
roll into ropes
make a braid
coil the braid up into a greased bowl
this will be the bowl that it cooks in
glaze with butter
glaze with honey

set in a warm damp place for 20-30 min
the sink works well in the steam room
it will double in size again
it will be delicate. try not to harm it
drizzle with honey

bake at 400-375 for 12-17 min
if it is getting too brown on the outside before the innards are cooked then turn the heat down to 350 or something.
my oven is funky so i have to rotate the bread pan every 6 min.
remove from oven
remove from bowl

glaze one more time while still very hot
or maybe even twice more.
