Looks kind of complicated! I finally tried making homemade bread for the first time a couple of weeks ago when I was stuck inside during the freeze. Came out wonderful and plan to do it again this weekend.  I was a chef and personal chef when I was younger....not much in the kitchen intimidates me....yeast however?....  If this comes out good, this is going to be my first accomplishment since I've retired!.....  Sounds like you have it covered. Enjoy your retirement! Here is another recipe you might want to try. It comes out beautifully. |

Your guests will most often recall the quality and care and presentation of the bread and desserts. Many people cheat and use commercial products and they don't taste right. These do not have to be expensive. A new cook should consider a convection oven as it bakes evenly and quickly versus a standard oven. |

Quoting: Jeffersons Blackberry Sticky dough is hard to work with but makes for better bread. Good Luck!  that is a haunting image. Reminds me of the young girl getting ready to slice the loaf of bread before people are due to come to their homestead - how thick can I slice it? her father answers, soon she should be able to slice it as thick as she wants... an early scene in the movie Once Upon a Time in the West cosmic, I bake only gluten-free. Yeast is tricky without the lovely gluten which holds together the architecture of the baking loaf. So I don't do it too often, will for Easter - the rising of the yeast is symbolic of the meaning of Easter in Eastern Europe traditions. roll the risen dough flat, cover it with nuts-butter-sugar or apple filling or plum filling or poppy-seed filling. roll it up so it is a loaf, or turn the ends of the loaf together to make a wreath bake. your bread dough looks GREAT. Once you have the recipe down, you can make SO MANY things with it! I use the redstar rapid rise yeast.. seems better with the heavier doughs using gluten-free flours. Love the new avatar beeches!

User ID: 78305667 United States03/04/2021 06:26 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I make most all of our bread - and primarily different versions of sourdough. The secret to baking bread is knowing when you have enough flour in it. I mix mine in a KitchenAid mixer and add flour slowly. Once it starts cleaning the edge of the bowl, you have enough flour. I then usually put in on the counter and hand knead it for a little bit just to make sure it isn't too sticky - if it is, I add a little more flour. I never keep track of how much flour goes in anymore, since I know by the feel of it when it has enough. BTW, I have deviated a lot from the original recipe - and randomly put in a mix of any of the following: stone ground whole wheat, unbleached white, oat flour, soy flour, millet, almond flour, barley flour, chickpea flour, and oatmeal. |
