1/4 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper

1 1/2 cups fresh spinach

2 teaspoons sugar

Cooking instruction summary:

Make the dough: In the bowl of a standing mixer fitted with the paddle attachment or a large mixing bowl, combine the all purpose flour, white whole wheat flour, vital wheat gluten (if using), sugar, salt, pepper, and yeast. In a small saucepan or a microwave-safe measuring cup, heat milk to the temperature specified by the yeast manufacturer. (Red Star Platinum Yeast is 120 to 130 degrees F.) Pour heated milk over the flour mixture. Add 2 tablespoons melted butter. Mix on low speed (or by hand with a wooden spoon), until the dough forms a shaggy mass.Switch to the mixer’s dough hook or turn dough out onto a lightly floured work surface. Knead by machine for 6 minutes or by hand for 8 minutes, until smooth. Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, turn to coat, then cover with plastic wrap that has been lightly misted with cooking spray or a clean towel. Let rise in a warm, draft-free place until doubled, about 2 hours. (Alternatively, you can chill the dough overnight or up to 3 days. Bring to room temperature, then continue as directed.)Make the filling: Beat together the goat cheese and salt until smooth. Set aside.Form the rolls: Turn the dough out onto a well-floured work surface, and roll into a 9 x 6-inch rectangle, with the longest side closest to you. Spread the filling over the dough’s surface, leaving a 1/2 inch border on short ends. Top evenly with spinach leaves. Starting with the bottom edge (one with a border), roll the dough into a tight 9-inch log (the spinach might try to scoot out, but press it in as you go). Pinch the end to seal. With a sharp serrated knife, carefully cut the log into 6, 1 1/2-inch pieces. Lightly mist a 9-inch round or 8-inch square pan with cooking spray, line with parchment paper, then lightly mist again. Arrange the rolls in the pan and brush tops with the remaining tablespoon of melted butter. Loosely cover the pan with lightly oiled plastic wrap, then let rise again at room temperature until doubled, about 2 hours. (Alternatively, if you did not refrigerate the dough in step 2, you may do so now. Let rolls rise in the refrigerator overnight, remove pan from oven 1 hour before baking and let stand at room temperature. Continue baking as directed.)Place rack in center of oven and preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Bake rolls for 20 to 25 minutes, until the tops are golden brown and the interior temperature reads 190 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer. Serve immediately.

Food Joke

A Change In Plans Source: "Today's Woman" magazine, Barbara A Tyler. Martha Stewart will not be dining with us this Thanksgiving. I'm telling you in advance, so don't act surprised. Since Ms. Stewart won't be coming, I've made a few small changes: Our sidewalk will not be lined with homemade, paper bag luminaries. After a trial run, it was decided that no matter how cleverly done, rows of flaming lunch sacks do not have the desired welcoming effect. The dining table will not be covered with expensive linens, fancy China or crystal goblets. If possible, we will use dishes that match and everyone will get a fork. Since this IS Thanksgiving, we will refrain from using the plastic Peter Rabbit plate and the Santa napkins from last Christmas. Our centerpiece will not be the tower of fresh fruit and flowers that I promised. Instead we will be displaying a hedgehog-like decoration hand-crafted from the finest construction paper. The artist assures me it is a turkey. We will be dining fashionably late. The children will entertain you while you wait. I'm sure they will be happy to share every choice comment I have made regarding Thanksgiving, pilgrims and the turkey hotline. Please remember that most of these comments were made at 5:00 AM upon discovering that the turkey was still hard enough to cut diamonds. As accompaniment to the children's recital, I will play a recording of tribal drumming. If the children should mention that I don't own a recording of tribal drumming, or that tribal drumming sounds suspiciously like a frozen turkey in a clothes dryer, ignore them. They are lying. We toyed with the idea of ringing a dainty silver bell to announce the start of our feast. In the end, we chose to keep our traditional method. We've also decided against a formal seating arrangement. When the smoke alarm sounds, please gather around the table and sit where you like. In the spirit of harmony, we will ask the children to sit at a separate table. In a separate room. Next door. Now I know you have all seen pictures of one person carving a turkey in front of a crowd of appreciative onlookers. This will not be happening at our dinner. For safety reasons, the turkey will be carved in a private ceremony. I stress "private" meaning: Do not, under any circumstances, enter the kitchen to laugh at me. Do not send small, unsuspecting children to check on my progress. I have an electric knife. The turkey is unarmed. It stands to reason that I will eventually win. When I do, we will eat. Before I forget, there is one last change. Instead of offering a choice between 12 different scrumptious desserts, we will be serving the traditional pumpkin pie, garnished with whipped cream and small fingerprints. You will still have a choice: take it or leave it. Martha Stewart will not be dining with us this Thanksgiving. She probably won't come next year either. I am thankful.
