金银花的食用禁忌：

1.金银花适合体质平和或体质内热者服用。而脾胃虚寒 (如经常腹痛、腹泻、腹部发凉、手脚发凉)的人不宜用金银花泡水喝。

2.金银花药性偏寒，不适合长期饮用，仅适合在炎热的夏季暂时饮用以防治痢疾。特别需要提醒的是，虚寒体质及月经期内不能饮用，否则，可能出现不良反应。

3.自己觉得上火了才喝，比较好，喝太多会适得其反。 注意泡饮时选金银花10克，沸水冲泡频饮。但最好不要天天喝 。

4.金银花泡水与泡茶类似，冲泡两三次即可，隔夜后不宜再饮用。

5.需要注意的是，金银花不宜冷饮，冷饮容易导致腹泻。因此，金银花泡水喝是应趁热饮用，才能更好地发挥效果。

Shape and bulk fermentation 

Remove dough on a lightly flour working top. Last folding and using a scraper do a few twist and pull, to make sure the dough is tightened. Rest for 4 hours. (Malaysia normal weather)

Cut a small dough keep in a small glass jar for observation. Place next to whether you keep the dough. From here you will know when is the dough ready to be baked*. 

I usually just use a 7" cake tin lined with baking sheet. After 4 hours, score the dough with a blade, then preheat oven at least 20 minutes.

or I used a drain basket, cover with linen heavy floured, after 4 hours, remove dough from the linen carefully, place in a lined baking tray. Score the dough.

Bake 240C  for steam bath oven for 30-45minutes depends on personal preference.

无酵饼

前天烘焙了第一批的无酵饼后，教会朋友留言拜托我是否能烘焙无酵饼给教会使用，毫不犹豫的答应了！既然要给上帝的就要做到最好。感觉第一次烘焙的无酵饼有点硬，所以想了想，换一个食谱。

昨晚上第二次做无酵饼，试用了中筋面粉，效果更硬，太厚了，没抹油，色泽暗淡呈灰褐色。

 

切块太小片了，对一些人来说，在小袋子里拿出这么一小片的东西，是真的有点难度！也实在很硬，要使劲的起咬嚼！

今天再试一个用了高筋面粉，擀出了了前所未有的薄度。

100克天然酵母
100克 水
250克 面粉
1/4 茶匙 盐

因为用了天然酵母，所以面粉量就比较多了。

220C 8-10分钟 因为我的烤箱火不均匀，上面放了一层铝箔隔热，所以需要10分钟的时间。

一坨面团分四份。

第一片，焦了！

第二片，切块后才记得要抹油， 有点麻烦，小片的面团会被粘上来，花多了时间去整理这个！

第三片，抹油了，忘记切块🥴  我这。。。是干什么来的？

第四片，程序，步骤，时间都做对了！终于完美结束！

这些都会分给其他小组组员。爱心分享！

云集会的圣餐

昨天组群里传来了一道信息：

  “2021年的线上聚会： 每个月的 第一周 将会有圣餐。请弟兄姐妹在家自备 饼和杯 ，我们将在线上一起领用圣餐，记念主耶稣基督 🍷🥖🙏❤️”

自从云集会后就无法领用圣餐了，收到信息后立马就动手做无酵饼，掺了一汤匙天然酵母糊，加入面粉，揉了一小面团，擀平，在平锅盘里烤。

一汤匙的天然酵母面糊，加入面粉和少许盐，揉成面团，在平底锅干炒。

第一片，太大！儿子吃了[哈哈] 他说好吃还想要！

第二片，还是有点大，感觉还是怪怪的。。。好像少做了一点什么来着。。。[费解]

第三片，忽然想起以前做无酵饼用叉子在面皮上刺了许多洞，这样就不会气泡鼓起来。

第四片，觉得每一次就只有我们俩，那么久切成小小的长方形，这次PERFECT！完美了！[舔屏]

圣餐的意义是叫我们纪念耶稣基督为我们牺牲自己。

「林前11:24」 祝谢了，就擘开，说：“这是我的身体，为你们舍的（“舍”有古卷作“擘开”）。你们应当如此行，为的是记念我。”

满满的❤️

Holy Communion Unleavened Bread

 Tomorrow is the first Sunday of 2021, from a WhatsApp chat group received a message from church announcement:

"Zoom service in 2021: There will be holy communion on Every first week of the month. Kindly prepare your own bread and cup at home, as we will partake in the Holy Communion together online this week in remembrance of Jesus Christ."

 

 

There are some brands of biscuits usually used by churches for this purpose, we are using homemade unleavened bread, sometimes I helped to prepare dough, another sister will fry it on a flat pan. Because of this experience, I thought, I should make a small piece of dough for tomorrow. 

I am using sourdough starter, add flour, mix with a spoon until it becomes a small dough, knead with hands, using a roller pin to flatten it. Fry in a non stick pan. 

A small spoonful of sourdough starter, mix with flour and pinch of salt.

We ate the 1st piece, Gab said is kind of nice, this is 2nd piece.

And I thought there are only two of us, hence I cut the dough into small rectangular piece.

This is how small it is.
