    A small glob of pure gluten I had chewed for several hours like bubble gum. Once baked, it was the driest, crispiest, blandest heel-of-a-baguette I’ve ever eaten.

    1/10 would not bake again.

    The gluten was a solid 6/10 gum, though.

    My neighbor grew something he called a “snake gourd” and gave me a couple to try. I didn’t really care for them but appreciated it anyway :)

    I made burnt sugar (to use as an ingredient to make pumpernickel bread). Burn the hell out of sugar in a sauce pan, pour on sheet of paper, let it cool, smash it to bits, grind into powder.
