The Bread Fairy
Often on weekends, we awake to the aroma of fresh baked breadstuff – a massive care for since bread isn't part of the usual Thai nutrition.
Our benefactress is Sara Coombes, the New Life Foundation Marketing Squad Leader. A flake of an insomniac, she is sometimes in the kitchen at 2 a.m. mixing and kneading. She learned staff of life making with Thai ingrediants through trial and error later she came to New Life.
Our small-scale oven is, according to Sara, "dodgy." Thais don't normally broil. They cook everything on propane burners in woks and steamers. But Sara has learned the oven's quirks and tin turn out beautiful loaves. Some are plain. Other are Italian Stromboli filled with caramelized onions.
Yeast and flour are not readily bachelor at the neighborhood Thai markets and must be purchased at the big Western supermarkets. I of the challenges for Westerners cooking in Thailand is locating ingredients and creatively substituting for those that can't be constitute or are too costly. Cheese, for example, is unbelievably expensive, so Sara has learned to brand ricotta for her vegetarian lasagna.
While nosotros accept a Thai melt on staff, volunteers and residents are invited to cook for the customs, so we bask meals with diverse international themes.
