This spring, Lynn Ehmen led an effort to start a community garden at Washington Middle School. The garden is free and open to the public to harvest; any leftover produce is used to stock micropantries throughout Springfield.

September 3-9, 2020 | Illinois Times | 11 FOOD Fluffy homemade pancakes Sure to please your crowd FOOD | Ashley Meyer

Whether they’re the centerpiece of a lazy Saturday morning brunch or hastily gobbled up on a hectic weekday, fluffy homemade pancakes are a sure crowd pleaser. Pancakes generally freeze well, separated with waxed paper in a zip- close bag, so it’s easy to make a big batch and get a jump on meal prep for the week ahead. Paramount to making tender, fluffy flapjacks is not over-mixing. Two things happen in baking when mixing dry ingredients together with liquid ingredients. Firstly, the gluten in the flour becomes activated when it’s combined and mixed with liquid. The more the dough or batter is worked, the more gluten will develop. That’s why chewy well-structured artisan breads are often kneaded for several minutes, in order to develop a strong network of gluten that will trap the air bubbles produced by the yeast. Secondly, when making quick breads like pancakes and muffins, the delicate air bubbles that are created by the reaction of the baking powder and baking soda coming into contact with the liquid ingredients are easily burst by over-mixing.
