Hi Ben,

RH> Dad told us about beer bread and how good it was. While
RH> visiting, he bought a 6 pack, drank most of it but left us a bottle so we
RH> could try making beer bread. They left, and a week or so later I tried
RH> making beer bread. It was the NASTIEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! stuff we ever
RH> tasted.

 BC> Do you happen to recall which kind of beer it was?  Perhaps an IPA?
 BC> I think beer is an acquired taste...  I have never tried beer bread
 BC> but am open to trying it.

You're asking about something that's 30 plus years in the past. Dad was
not a beer connisour so it would have been one of the second tier name
brands, something that didn't cost a lot of money. When he first started
building the family house, he'd work on it after his 9-5 job and go
until he couldn't see. It was a lot of physical labor so he'd have a
nightcap of a beer and Cheez-its crackers. He finally gave that up well
after the house was built and I left home but still enjoyed his (not
quite as often) beer. Me, I never acquired the taste for it (nor did
Steve) so the loaf of beer bread was a one off for us. Other than water
(still or sparkling), my choice of drink it either Diet Coke or Ale 8
Zero, a soda I found at one of our camper rallies in Kentucky some years
ago. (A couple in our neighborhood are from KY and have brought a case
back to me from time to time when they visit.)

 BC> When Mom makes cheese, she saves the whey and adds it to the bread
 BC> machine mix.  It gives the bread a lot more flavor and rising
 power. BC> That's the whey, i like it.

Uh-hu! I've never made cheese so don't have the whey to help the bread
rise. It does sound like the bread would be quite flavorful.

 BC>       Yield: 8 Burritos

Our younger daughter worked at Taco Bell when she was in high school.
They were ok if you wanted a sort of pseudo Mexican meal; I was spoiled
on Mexican food when I went on a mission trip while we were in Texas.
The ladies of the church that hosted our team made a from scratch
Mexican meal for us for our last lunch. Taco Bell will satisfy a craving
for something quick and kinda sorta but it ain't nothing like the real
thing.
