A few years ago, I was at a nice banquet celebrating the end of a summer Japanese course I had helped teach. Halfway through the meal, the head instructor, a crusty, no-nonsense veteran we ll call Sensei, abruptly stood up and announced he was going home to cook his dog beef noodles for dinner. This restaurant food is fine for all of you, he said as he left, but it isn t good enough for my dog. We all know that a home-cooked meal, liberally seasoned with TLC, tastes infinitely better than anything commercial could. Dogs show their love by meeting us at the door and slobbering all over our faces.
Humans show love by cooking.
Great chefs have often turned their talents to creating dishes that would please canine diners. 1 cup powdered milk 1 cup water Combine the whole wheat flour, bread flour, wheat germ, salt and brown sugar. Add the eggs and oil and mix well. Dissolve the powdered milk in the water and incorporate into the dough mixture. Work the dough, adding more flour or water if necessary, until it is smooth, very stiff and firm.
