Скачать или смотреть Making Lembas Bread from Lord of the Rings

2 years ago I made a short where I made lembas bread for my dad. He took me to see all of the LoTR movies when I was a kid, and I thought itd be nice to say thank you with it. Recently that short started doing well, and people began asking for the recipe.

I adapted it by fidgeting with a recipe from "Recipes From the World of Tolkien" : https://amzn.to/4jvRs0D

Ingredients (approximate):
1 cup flour
¾ cup cornmeal, or cornbread mix if you’d like this to be a little cakier and sweeter
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon salt
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 eggs
¾ cup milk or buttermilk, but this is a guess. You might need more or less. I show the texture I am looking for in my video.

Optional (from book):
2 tablespoons parmesan cheese
Handful of fresh chopped parsley
1 red chili, deseeded and finely chopped

Instructions: Combine the dry in a bowl, add the wet, bring together, shape into 4 squares with well oiled hands and a well oiled bench scraper on parchment/silpat. When about ½ inch thick, square, with sides that are flattened with bench scraper - make diagonal lines from corner to corner with a bench scraper. It should look like an X that leaves 4 triangular pieces.

Bake at 300 degrees fahrenheit for 1 hour, or at 375 degrees fahrenheit for 45 minutes if you’d like yours to be a bit more airy and flakey. This is up to your preference.
