I was SO dubious about this freeze ahead thing, but I tried it. Better than everyone standing around watching the turkey cool off while I dealt with rolls for T'giving. They were PERFECT!!!! I live at 5000 feet, so the extra rise I always get up here if I don't reduce the yeast, was just what these frozen guys needed. Wonderful wonderful. KAF absolutely made my Thanksgiving. This recipe/technique, the pecan pie with no Karo, and the apple pie using the technique of letting the apples macerate and boiling the juice down with the boiled cider. The crust was still not soggy days later. Darn, I wish I'd known these techniques years ago. Thank you again!!! Your website and generous helpful bakers have returned the joy of baking to my life.
