Happy Match Day to all the 4th year med students! We were honored to serve this pistachio cake for an extra special match 💕🌱
Our pistachio cake is made with fresh housemate pistachio milk and topped with crushed pistachios. I originally created this recipe in honor of my parents, who love pistachios, and it’s been a hit!
Dominican pan de agua using sourdough starter 🥖✨
I have been having so much fun experimenting with sourdough this past year! Ivannoe and I found ourselves wanting pan de agua, a typical Dominican bread, and I decided to make them with a sourdough twist! I used a very easy recipe from .rd and replaced 80g of sourdough starter. We both really loved how they came out and the soft flavor from the starter! To keep a more firm shape, next time I’ll roll the dough much more tightly. We also put a pan underneath the rack we baked on with some water. This wasn’t in the directions but I find that the steam helps when I bake bread on a sheet instead of a Dutch oven and it worked really well!

Pan de agua hecho con masa madre 🥖✨
Ivannoe y yo estábamos antojados de pan de agua (un pan tradicional en la República Dominicana) y decidimos intentarlo con un pequeño cambio: usar un poco de masa madre!! Usamos una receta de .rd, súper fácil de hacer/entender, remplazando parte de la harina/agua con la mixtura de masa madre (una masa fermentada). Nos encantaron!! Súper delicioso, unos panes suaves con un sabor riquísimo. Para la próxima vez, enrollaré la masa más firmemente para que queden bien formados. También puse un sartén con agua en el horno debajo de los panes como muchas veces lo pongo cuando estoy haciendo panes para aumentar la humedad y me funciono súper bien!

A little how it started how it’s going bread making edition 😍
Like many others, I decided to try my hand at sourdough in the beginning of March as the pandemic as setting in. I love to learn new skills and bread making definitely puts so many things to the test. Bread making is really a conversation between the baker, ingredients, and environment. Different water temperatures, flour brands, or weather can completely change a loaf. I’m not going to lie, I was pretty disappointed when I saw that first loaf but with some time, practice, and changes in technique I’ve been able to make loaves that I’m really proud of. Thank you sourdough for teaching me patience and showing me love!

Happy to report that I successfully defended my dissertation yesterday and am officially Dr. Cecilia Flores-Rodríguez 🥰
For those of you that are new I’ve been pursuing a PhD in Social Policy focused on health equity for the last few years. I’m excited to share more (if you all are interested of course!) but for now I’ll share my acknowledgments as well as the two quotes I used to open and end my dissertation.
To celebrate this huge milestone, I’ve been in pajamas all day eating my first vegan cheesecake 😆 recipe was inspired by though I switch the crust for a homemade graham cracker crust
and a cherry topping. Delicious!! I’ll definitely be remaking this holiday season 😍
