MILE HIGH POPPY SEED BREAD

Note from Chef James: I have recently moved from Key West, Florida to Winona, Minnesota, where I lived for a while many years ago. This is the first of what will be an extensive area of the website about the Winona area and its relationship with food.    Chef James
The following is a recipe by Grant Borkowski, who is a member of aGrants Bread local 4H club and makes projects for the county fair, This year he made bread, buns, and cookies, showed chickens ( golden polish and black silkies) made a cement bird bath and two photography projects. This year he won a Trip to the state fair where he received a blue ribbon for his bread.
Grant Borkowski also plays the banjo and trumpet and lives on the family farm on the bluffs above Winona, Minnesota. He loves playing video games and playing with his cats and puppy Lou.
Congratulations to Grant, and welcome to the Food Reference Website!   Chef James
